Commercial Water Heaters: Conventional vs. Tankless

There are two primary choices for commercial water heaters, starting with the conventional water heater that stores water in a tank. This durable option can potentially last over a decade. However, Griffin water heater experts want you to know there is a more cost effective and environmentally friendly option – the tankless water heater.

Tankless water heaters are more energy efficient because they only heat water as needed. Once the tap is turned on, gas works to supply the hot water. This type of water heater also has a higher life expectancy of 15-20 years. A tankless water heater can also reduce your water-heating bill by nearly 30%.

Signs Your Water Heater Needs to be Repaired or Replaced

For commercial businesses, a reliable supply of hot water isn't a luxury – it's a necessity. From ensuring hygiene in restrooms and kitchens to supporting crucial operational processes, a malfunctioning water heater can lead to significant disruptions, customer dissatisfaction, and even potential health code violations. Here are critical signs that your commercial water heater needs professional attention, whether it's a repair or a full replacement:

- Inconsistent Water Temperature
- Reduced Hot Water Volume
- Strange Noises Coming from the Tank
- Discolored or Smelly Water
- Leaks Around the Base of the Tank
- Increased Energy Bills Without Increased Usage
- The Age of Your Water Heater (between 8-12 years old)

Ignoring the warning signs of a failing water heater can lead to costly emergency repairs or, worse, a complete and unexpected system failure. Being proactive and recognizing the indicators of trouble can save your business time, money, and unnecessary headaches.
