Tankless Water Heaters For Apartments?
Posted on | November 29, 2009 | 6 Comments
I am considering electric tankless water heaters for each of my 28 2-bedroom 1 bath apartments. What type is recommended? I don’t want to recirculate the hot water. The hard water kills the 30-gal tank versions pretty fast plus I am trying to save my residents some money on their electricity bills. I have seen them priced from 350-2000 and would like to get by with as inexpnesive as practical (remember – 28 units lol) without buying junk. Is the Tankless1 a good make and model for this application?

I would check with a company that manufactures and sells these units. They produce hot water on demand only, and that saves money. In Europe we have used these type of water heaters already 50 years ago, however, in the USA they are fairly new on the market and not cheap, as we found out. When checking the water heater prices, we were disappointed with their high cost, and left things as they were for the time being.
We live in New York State where the local electric companies are charging outrageous prices for electricity. In time we also like to come up with an energy efficient way of heating our water.

hard water will kill your tankless heaters too. rent a water softener.

I can’t tell you which model to buy, but I just looked at a house that had one installed and I know more and more people who are choosing that direction versus the old tank method. I would suggest looking on some green websites for recommendations treehugger.com etc. Also depending on where you live, there may be tax incentives for going green.
