EMERGENCY PLUMBING
(480) 304-2074
Most conventional water heaters are fairly simple. They work by allowing cold water into the tank that is then heated using an electric element or gas burner. To regulate the temperature, a thermostat is used to keep the water between 120 to 140 degrees. As the water heats, pressure builds inside the tank. The pressure then sends hot water out of the faucet when you turn the tap on.
Since water heaters contain very few parts, only a few things can go wrong:
Repairing or replacing any of those parts is relatively inexpensive. Usually a plumber can do the job for $150 to $300. But if the tank is more than 10 years old, or if it’s leaking, a new water tank is likely in your future. If you have any of these issues or need a new water heater, we can help.

Traditional water heaters have long been the preferred option in American homes and continue to be. They are inexpensive and reliable and their simplicity makes them the ideal option when wanting to avoid hassle or repairs. Tankless water heaters, however, have started to become more popular in the US over the recent years and many homeowners are tasked with the difficult decision of which to choose.
If you have found yourself debating whether you should stick to the traditional water heater with a tank or whether you should switch to a tankless water heater, we’ve outlined some comparisons between the two to help you make an informed decision. There are pros and cons to each and it’s importation to weigh your options and determine which would better suit your home based on these comparisons.
There are two ways that price can be factored into the comparison between a standard tank water heater and a tankless. First, there is the initial cost of purchase and installation, then, second, there is the cost of use.
Cost of Unit
Cost of Installation
Energy Savings
When you consider the energy savings as cost savings, eventually you would recoup the extra costs from unit purchase and installation of a tankless water heater. That, however, could take several years before it starts saving you money. For many people who use tankless water heaters, cost isn’t a primary factor as there isn’t a large difference in total cost when you factor in energy savings versus initial costs.
As discussed in the previous section under cost comparison, a tankless water heater could reduce energy use by 8% to 35% depending on the amount of water used. While the cost saving of the more energy efficient option barely makes up for the initial cost difference, many environmentally-conscious individuals prefer tankless water heaters just for the sole fact that it is more eco-friendly.
Tankless heaters are more complex and may require more, or more frequent, repairs. The cost of repairs can be higher as well. Traditional water heaters do have the benefit of being very simple and can usually be easily repaired.
This may seem like a win for standard water heaters however, while they don’t need as much maintenance or repairs, they usually do not last as long as a tankless water heater. On average, a standard water heater will last about 10 to 13 years whereas a tankless water heater is estimated to last up to 20 years.
For many homeowners, the main thought process when choosing between a traditional water heater and a tankless is as simple as determining which will cost less or save the most money. There are, however, a few other things to consider:
So, when determining which option is right for you, there are certainly many things to consider. There are many pros and cons to each and there isn’t the best option for everyone, it just depends on your needs and preferences.
