Benefits Of Tankless On Demand Water Heaters
Many people ask whether it's worth upgrading from a traditional water heater to a tankless model. While tankless systems aren't right for everyone, they offer several advantages, including energy efficiency, longer lifespan, unlimited hot water, and space savings.
Tankless water heaters are up to 34% more efficient than traditional water heaters, so you can save hundreds of dollars every year on your energy bills. Plus, they last twice as long as traditional water heaters, so they're a better value for your money.
Energy Efficiency
Benefits of a Tankless Water Heater Installation
Longer Lifespan
While we're on the subject of saving money, it's worth noting that tankless water heaters last twice as long as traditional systems. So, although they cost more upfront, they're a better value for your money.
Unlimited Hot Water
Families with high hot water demands often run out of hot water too quickly. If you're one of them, a tankless water heater might be right for you. Tankless water heaters don't rely on a storage tank, so you get an unlimited supply of hot water for as long as you need it.
Space Savings
If you’ve used a storage-tank water heater, you know how much space they take up. Tankless water heaters are wall-mounted, allowing you to reclaim usable floor space.
As mentioned, tankless water heaters aren’t suitable for every application but call Plumblink Plumbing Inc. today, if you’d like more information and discuss your options.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a hot water tank last?
Most standard tanks last about 8 to 12 years. Tankless (on-demand) units often run 20 years or more with regular servicing. Age matters more than how the tank looks - if yours is past the 10-year mark, it's worth planning a replacement before it fails rather than after.
Should I repair my hot water tank or replace it?
Repair usually makes sense if the tank is under 8 years old and the problem is a part - a thermostat, heating element, thermocouple, or the temperature and pressure relief valve. If the tank itself is leaking from the body, the shell has corroded through and it can't be patched; that's a replacement. We'll tell you which one you're looking at before any work starts.
Tank or tankless witch one is right for my home?
A tank is cheaper up front, simpler to service, and fine for most households. Tankless gives you unlimited hot water, uses less energy, lasts longer, and frees up floor space - but it costs more to install, and going from a tank to a tankless unit means new venting and gas or electrical work. Larger families and homes that run out of hot water usually get the most out of tankless.
How quickly can you replace a tank that's leaking or stopped working?
We're available 24/7, and in most cases we can get a failed or leaking tank swapped out the same day. If your tank is actively leaking, shut off the water supply to it and the gas or breaker, then call us — that limits the water damage while we're on the way. See our emergency plumbing service for after-hours calls.
Does a hot water tank need maintenance?
For most Langley homes it comes down to household size and bathroom count. A 40-gallon tank suits one to three people, 50 gallons is the common choice for a family of three or four, and larger households or homes with a soaker tub often need 60 gallons or more. If you're switching to tankless, sizing is based on flow rate instead of capacity - how many fixtures you need running at once.
Do I need a permit to replace a hot water heater?
Gas water heaters are regulated work - the installation has to be done by a licensed gas fitter, and it's either permitted or covered under Technical Safety BC's replacement appliance decal program for straight like-for-like residential swaps. Anything beyond a like-for-like swap needs a full installation permit: switching from a tank to a tankless unit, changing the venting, or changing from electric to gas. Electric tanks need a licensed electrician for the connection. We handle the licensing and paperwork on every install.
What size of hot water tank do I need?
For most Langley homes it comes down to household size and bathroom count. A 40-gallon tank suits one to three people, 50 gallons is the common choice for a family of three or four, and larger households or homes with a soaker tub often need 60 gallons or more.
