Tankless water heaters
Buy ENERGY STAR® to save you money!
An ENERGY STAR certified tankless water heater uses 30% less energy, on average, than a storage tank type. Saving energy saves money and reduces your carbon footprint.
Key features
- Rated with an energy factor (EF). The higher the EF, the more efficient the water heater.
- No storage tank. Rather, they heat flowing water only when required, using either an electric element or a gas burner, and essentially providing endless hot water.
Start your research using the ENERGY STAR Product Finder tool to find and compare certified water heaters (NOTE: you will be redirected to the US ENERGY STAR website. Make sure to click “Gas Tankless” under “Type” when searching.)
Helpful tips
- Get your water heater serviced once every year or two by a qualified professional (Consult your owner’s manual for detailed information).
- Buy the right size. Consult with an experienced plumber to estimate the hot water demands in your home.
