Where to Put Tankless Gas Water Heaters?

If you're considering a tankless gas water heater to increase the comfort in your home, one of your first considerations is where to place it. Tankless water heaters have some specific requirements that you should consider.

Tankless water heaters have very specific ventilation requirements because they emit more exhaust gas than conventional water heaters. Before choosing a location for your new water heater, read the manufacturer's guidelines carefully to avoid problems. You usually need to find a spot that is at least three feet from the window and as close to the end of the vent as possible. If your house is several stories high, you usually can't place the water heater several stories below the roof vent.

If the water in the water heater freezes, the entire unit can be destroyed. Make sure to choose a warm location so your tankless water heater is easier to run efficiently.

The ideal location for a gas water heater is at home. Most units are small and unobtrusive, so they can easily fit in a pantry, under stairs, or under a sink. If you must place your water heater outside, make sure it is protected from direct sunlight, rain, and insects.

The closer your tank is to the appliance or faucet that needs water, the better it will work. If you want better hot water for your bathroom, look for an installation location as close to the shower as possible. Placing your water heater downstairs or a few rooms away will reduce its efficiency. You may even want your plumber to install multiple water heaters so you can zone them for optimal performance.

The above briefly introduces the suitable placement of gas water heaters. If you want to buy gas water heaters, please contact us.
