How Do I Know If I Need Lancaster Heating and Cooling to Replace My Water Heater?
If you are unsure whether it’s time to replace your water heater, there are a few main points to consider when deciding whether or not it is time to install a brand new water heater:

Advantages of Tankless Water Heater Installation and Replacement Services
Many Hamilton and Niagara area homeowners are beginning to switch to tankless water heater systems from their older tank heaters for the benefits and advantages these innovative water heating systems have to offer:
- Increased Energy Efficiency
A big appeal of tankless water heater systems is that they only heat water when it is needed. Traditional tank water heaters heat their water supply continuously so that it is ready for you to use when you require it. By using a tankless water heater method, which heats water only on demand, it is reported that tankless water heaters can reduce energy usage by up to 24 to 34 percent! (As compared to a typical tank heater). - Decreased Utility Bills
Tankless water heaters use less energy to run since they do not heat water continuously, which can be beneficial to your monthly utility bills. It is reported that the average household can potentially save hundreds of dollars each year by utilizing a tankless water heater by conserving almost 27 to 50 percent more energy than typical tank heaters. - Extended Lifespan
Another big advantage of Expert Tankless Water Heater Installation and Replacement Services by Lancaster Heating and Cooling is that tankless water heaters have a significantly longer lifespan than their traditional counterparts. The average tankless water heater system has a lifespan of around 20 years, while traditional tank heaters have a lifespan of 10 to 15 years. It should be noted that the more you have your tankless water professionally maintained by Lancaster Heating and Cooling, the longer it will last you. - Occupy Less Space
One major draw for tankless water heater systems is that they physically save a remarkable amount of space as compared to traditional tank models. A traditional water heater tank holds anywhere from 40 to 60 gallons of water and is around 60 inches tall and 24 inches wide – that’s a ton of space required to store an appliance! Tankless water heaters, on the other hand, are typically around 28 inches tall, 20 inches wide, and 10 inches deep, saving you a serious amount of space for storage or other things in your basement!
What Our Clients Say About Our Water Heater Installation Service
“WOW-I’m impressed with the quality and speed of work your team performed the last 2 days. Each and everyone one of them were professional, kind and knowledgeable and handled a few hiccups we had by providing options/solutions and not letting it block progress.
Having a team that handles all the electrical, plumbing, gas, and general construction work with drilling and mounting made this such a seamless experience, and of course that all started with the information/quote/sales process. Working with Cassandra was fantastic.
The transformation of our heating, cooling, air quality, humidity and hot water systems look and work amazingly!
