Tankless water heaters, also known as on-demand or instantaneous water heaters, are devices that instantly heat water as it flows through the device. Unlike traditional water heaters, they do not store hot water in a tank but instead use a heat source (electricity or gas) to warm up cool water on-demand whenever you need it.

A tankless water heater is like an infinite supply of hot water. Unlike traditional water heaters, it doesn't have a storage tank. Instead, it provides hot water instantly when you turn on a faucet or shower. No waiting, just a steady flow of hot water.
Energy Efficiency: Tankless water heaters are more energy-efficient than traditional ones because they only heat water when needed, reducing energy consumption.
Continuous Supply of Hot Water: They provide a continuous flow of hot water, which is ideal for filling a big hot tub or a long shower.
Longer Lifespan: On average, tankless water heaters last longer than their traditional counterparts. While traditional water heaters have a lifespan of 10-15 years, tankless water heaters can last up to 20 years or more.
Space Saving: Due to their compact size, tankless water heaters take up less space than traditional water heaters. They can be installed on walls, either inside or outside of your home.
Less Risk of Water Damage: Since they don't store water, there's less risk of water damage from a leak compared to traditional water heaters.
The installation process of a tankless water heater involves several steps and should be carried out by a professional plumber or contractor. Here's a general overview:
The first step is to choose a model that suits your needs in terms of size, type (gas or electric), and energy efficiency.
If you're replacing an old water heater, it will need to be disconnected and removed.
The new tankless water heater will be mounted on the wall and connected to your home's water supply. If you've chosen a gas model, it will also need to be connected to the gas line.
The heater will then be connected to the electrical supply (for electric models) or the gas supply (for gas models). Finally, the heater will be tested to ensure it's working correctly.
