There are three main classes of water heaters currently on the market. They are tankless water heaters, conventional tank type water heaters, and hybrid water heaters. Schwering Plumbing specializes in installing tankless and conventional tank type water heaters.
Tankless Water Heaters
Tankless water heaters differ from tank water heaters in that they do not use a large chamber to store hot water. For tankless water heaters, water is heated through heat exchange elements as it passes through the unit. These elements only heat water during periods of usage demand. This process allows for continuous hot water delivery for as long as you want; while at the same time, creating a higher energy efficient home.
Tank Type Water Heaters
A tank water heater is effective at heating and storing hot water, but there is a limit to how much hot water it can create and deliver at a time. Because of this, it is important the right size and model of water heater is installed in your home. Doing this will give you optimal volume and delivery of hot water.
