Professional Water Heater Installation & Repair Arlington Heights, IL

There are two main types of water heaters – tankless and storage tanks. Each type has its own unique features and benefits. 

1. Storage Tank
   Storage tank water heaters are the most common type of water heater. They are typically fueled by electricity, natural gas, or propane. The hot water is stored in a tank where it is kept at a pre-set temperature until it is needed.
   
   This type of water heater is less expensive than a tankless water heater but it does have some drawbacks. For example, the hot water can run out if you use too much or if there is a power outage. 
   
   
2. Tankless
   Tankless water heaters do not have a storage tank. Instead, they heat up the water on demand when you need it. This means that you will never run out of hot water.
   
   These units are also more energy efficient because they only heat up the water when you need it instead of keeping it heated in a tank all day long. However, tankless water heaters tend to be more expensive than storage tank models.
