About Tankless Water Heaters in BC

How Tankless Water Heaters Work

A tankless water heater (also called an on-demand water heater) heats water instantly as it flows through the unit - there's no storage tank and no standby heat loss. When you turn on a hot water tap, cold water travels through a pipe into the unit where a gas burner or electric element heats it on the spot. The result: endless hot water that never runs out, even if multiple showers are running at once (with proper sizing).
