Yes and no. Tankless actually use less power in terms of overall use but because it does have to super heat the water, it uses more instantaneous power. In other words it uses just about all and sometimes more power than what some people even have supplied to the house at the main from the power company, but only works when used. That and because people don't run out more people tend to use more hot water like taking longer showers. But over all at least he's being straight since often it cost more to install a tankless and it's supposed to have a lot more maintenance meaning more money made from a tankless. That in itself is at least nice. Basically honest on the plumbing end but wrong on the electrical end, kind of when he mentions the install since most of the time replacing a tank means also replacing the wiring for a tankless
4th generation plumber , 3rd generation union plumber , he sounds convincing to some who dont ask detailed questions , but he's wrong . He likes tankless because it's a much higher profit margin . Buying tankless is very expensive 1.100 to 4.500 and they start to have problems about 8 years , they keep redesigning so parts do go out of production . Tank 15 to 20 years 300 to 1100 . If by chance your tankless lasts 20 years your still saving thousands with a tank .

@@pyrohawk69 Nope. I had four kids at once all in the same house, so six total people. I installed a 192000 BTU Gas tankless water heater in 2012. It was one of the best investments I've ever made. Never ran out of hot water. It's still going strong to this day.
@@pyrohawk69plumbers that say that more than likely do not know how to size the gas and put in a adequate tankless for the situation that it is needed for. Gas tankless are amazing.
And a properly maintained (flushed annually) gas tankless can easily last more than 10 years with few or no breakdowns, whereas most tank types will start leaking within 10 years.

@@savvykavvy9507there's actually such a thing as tankless water heaters now, they just heat as water flows through and you basically get infinite hot water
When I pulled my new house, a plumber told me that I did not want tankless because I had to put a tankless unit unit for each bathroom, kitchen and laundry room and I would have to vent everything. He said it was massive and I’d be better off with just a regular. How true is this?

Not 100%. While an electric unit will use more electricity, upon initial heating, it should be more efficient in the long run. A tank style, electric water heater, will continually re-heat the same water, until it is used and replenished. Where by it'll continue the cycle. In the southern states, where groundwater is warmer, a tankless unit will almost always outperform a tanked unit. You also need to take into account which method of energy you use to heat the water. A natural gas supply, in an area rich with this type of service, will probably outperform LP and electric. Another point to make is what size home you have and how much usage the unit will get. A lot of bathroom sink fixtures and small laundry rooms are better served with a point-of-use electric unit. They're sized to meet the minimum needs of the fixture and deliver at-temp water w/ barely any waste.
@@tomb816it doesn’t sound like you payed attention to the video he said if it’s tankless he wants gas but if it’s with a tank he’d take electric and he’s right ab tankless electrics being more expensive bc they use more power to heat the water instantly

@@steveleslie2170 in Maryland, that was your base starting till you got certs. Yeah you leveled up fast but we started in HS and they weren't paying us industry standard unless you did this.
Why do you explain the same thing to them? As an electrician you should know that electric resistive heating is basically 100% energy efficient. Yes, you may need to upgrade the electrical installation in their house but from a pure efficiency standpoint this dude is talking absolute nonsense. The "super heating" part he talks about for tankless electric to create hot water instantaneously also applies to the tankless gas heater he wants to install instead. I really don't get why all the comments say that he knows his stuff... Only thing I could understand is if he talked about economically more efficient because gas costs way less than electricity per kWh in this area but he would need to clarify that...
@@coffeeaddict8972 what do you mean by upgrade the electrical installation in their house? You mean a service upgrade or a whole new system install? Also, what country do you live in?
That's because skill labor isn't cheap. Cheap labor will cost you in the long run. As an electrician, I always tell this to people. But they never listen.
Tankless is no way shape or form easier I can install a conventional water heater in about 30 minutes as long as the old one drains well tankless is an all-day
@@chrisbowers9008he is talking about house under construction installation NOT replacement. Also depends on where the old water heater is. I've seen water heaters tucked under counters where you had to actually remove counter tops and appliances to replace them.
A tankless can and usually does draw more gas than a tanked heater. This means that the 1/2" gas line (in most homes) must be replaced with a 3/4" unless the run is terribly short. This is ADDITIONAL COST for a new build and much higher cost for a retrofit. A gas tankless will typically have additional air intake requirements based on BTU's of the unit. Almost all will require a dedicated intake air vent that many tanked heaters don't have or need. This is again, ADDITIONAL COST for a new build and much higher cost for a retrofit. Also, the exhaust venting of a typical non-condensing tankless requires that it has a dedicated exhaust that is not shared with any other appliance, not be vented into a standard masonary chimney, and many areas require that the exhaust gasses are vented using a double or triple wall stainless vent... Again, this is ADDITIONAL COST for a new build and much higher cost for a retrofit. MUCH MORE COST. Stainless venting alone can cost $50-$100 per FOOT just for the materials without labor! 20 feet times $100 is $2000 more cost than a tank just for the exhaust. (Buy a more expensive condensing model to avoid spending money on stainless venting. Condensing models have secondary and sometimes tertiary heat exchangers that put more heat into the water and less heat up the exhaust. With less exhaust heat, you can avoid the expensive stainless and use PVC which is much cheaper. Condensing models are more efficient with some models at 98% efficiency). Tankless heaters cost more for new installs and MUCH more on retrofits than a tanked heater and the difference is NOT the profit going into a plumber's pocket. In reality, profit margins on tankless installs are less than the margin for a standard tank replacement. Not everyone is a crook. Some things just cost more; especially technology. Tankless heaters are a worthwhile investment as long as they are properly maintained. Id' go so far as offering secondary bypass plumbing loop to make de-scaling as easy as possible and also limit scale from moving through the system and clogging up faucet screens.
@@RulusanWow I didn’t know tankless was a thing. Our fully(damn near) renovated 🏠 has a tank and a water boiler ,radiators also window ACs.

@@Balzzack it's funny that you say that. I've always worked for myself as an electrician and am very cautious of my surroundings. Things like: don't put tools on peoples countertops, don't wear bags around new cabinets and clean up when you're done. That last few jobs I've been on multiple people commented that they appreciated the fact that I didn't leave a trail of wire bits and other debris in my wake. I just thought it was obvious to pick up after myself. In light of your comments and those of my customers, it appears that there's a bit of a slovenly nature to more than just a few sparkys out there giving us a bad rep. I'm not sure what their problem is? For the amount I charge I have no problem becoming the worlds most expensive house cleaner, work is work. Although, because of that, I will often ask the homeowner if they'd like to pay me to clean or they can deal with it and save a few bucks in the process. About 60% opt to deal with it in a way that's far less then they'd spend on me. As for the rest, I'm more than happy to take the $ from those that just assumed I did it. I guess I'm not the norm. Hope you come across some tidy electricians in the future.
How was hr hesitant? Wtf. I jeep rrading tiis in comments. He was minding his own business and rhe guy walked uo tobhim with a camera and wgen asked a question he answered. Somebody explain?

My oldies run a 315ltr twin element heater with solar panels, their energy bill is $150 dollars per quarter, if they ran a 7 star rated tankless heater the gas bill would be $350 🤷♂️
@@Apex8r before panels their energy bill was about $700 per quarter for running the whole house, their 8kw solar package only cost $2k fully installed because the government chips in the rest (solar rebate).

@@lostlune Depends on the cost of gas vs electric where one lives as well as the power demand necessary. If you need a relatively high demand system then you are looking at also upgrading your wiring. "Efficiency-wise" it could very well be about equal in most cases if you've got cheaper available gas, but see a slight 'efficiency' increase in heat conversion through electricity and a heating element.
But does he really? A tank water heater using electric runs for extremely long times. Pulling in full current that whole time. A tankless will still pull full current but only for as long as that water is turned on. Other words you're only heating the water when you need it not in standby mode as well. You're hot water tank keeps itself hot all day long in that tank. But the tankless only runs when using it.
Tankless and electric is easier and cheaper 😂 took us about an hour to hook the whole thing up, check for leaks and it's waaay cheaper then a tank about 300 bucks

Which part, because every plumber I've talked to has said to never go tankless.
Edit: Unless you live by yourself
@@pyrohawk69 Nope. I had four kids at once all in the same house, so six total people. I installed a 192000 BTU Gas tankless water heater in 2012. It was one of the best investments I've ever made. Never ran out of hot water. It's still going strong to this day.
@@pyrohawk69plumbers that say that more than likely do not know how to size the gas and put in a adequate tankless for the situation that it is needed for. Gas tankless are amazing.
And a properly maintained (flushed annually) gas tankless can easily last more than 10 years with few or no breakdowns, whereas most tank types will start leaking within 10 years.
You dont tell the people the maitenance cost in tankless. In the end its less dollar efficient

Not 100%. While an electric unit will use more electricity, upon initial heating, it should be more efficient in the long run. A tank style, electric water heater, will continually re-heat the same water, until it is used and replenished. Where by it'll continue the cycle.
In the southern states, where groundwater is warmer, a tankless unit will almost always outperform a tanked unit.
You also need to take into account which method of energy you use to heat the water. A natural gas supply, in an area rich with this type of service, will probably outperform LP and electric.
Another point to make is what size home you have and how much usage the unit will get. A lot of bathroom sink fixtures and small laundry rooms are better served with a point-of-use electric unit. They're sized to meet the minimum needs of the fixture and deliver at-temp water w/ barely any waste.
**shit
@@tomb816it doesn’t sound like you payed attention to the video he said if it’s tankless he wants gas but if it’s with a tank he’d take electric and he’s right ab tankless electrics being more expensive bc they use more power to heat the water instantly

As an electrician, I agree. I talk people out of getting them. I will take their money if they insist, but I explain this same thing to them first.
Why do you explain the same thing to them? As an electrician you should know that electric resistive heating is basically 100% energy efficient. Yes, you may need to upgrade the electrical installation in their house but from a pure efficiency standpoint this dude is talking absolute nonsense. The "super heating" part he talks about for tankless electric to create hot water instantaneously also applies to the tankless gas heater he wants to install instead. I really don't get why all the comments say that he knows his stuff... Only thing I could understand is if he talked about economically more efficient because gas costs way less than electricity per kWh in this area but he would need to clarify that...
Sure you do buddy
@@coffeeaddict8972 I understood this instantly by the context of what he was saying. Its a You problem.

@@marlonmajor1033 yea u don't see much of that here in south Florida 🤷🏻
@@slimdangerous1928 I was referring to how passionate he is about what he does for a living. 🤦🏻🤷🏻
That's because skill labor isn't cheap. Cheap labor will cost you in the long run. As an electrician, I always tell this to people. But they never listen.
Plumber was like” Don’t let them know tankless is easier, I charge more for a tankless”
Tankless is no way shape or form easier I can install a conventional water heater in about 30 minutes as long as the old one drains well tankless is an all-day
@@chrisbowers9008he is talking about house under construction installation NOT replacement. Also depends on where the old water heater is. I've seen water heaters tucked under counters where you had to actually remove counter tops and appliances to replace them.
A tankless can and usually does draw more gas than a tanked heater. This means that the 1/2" gas line (in most homes) must be replaced with a 3/4" unless the run is terribly short. This is ADDITIONAL COST for a new build and much higher cost for a retrofit.
A gas tankless will typically have additional air intake requirements based on BTU's of the unit. Almost all will require a dedicated intake air vent that many tanked heaters don't have or need. This is again, ADDITIONAL COST for a new build and much higher cost for a retrofit.
Also, the exhaust venting of a typical non-condensing tankless requires that it has a dedicated exhaust that is not shared with any other appliance, not be vented into a standard masonary chimney, and many areas require that the exhaust gasses are vented using a double or triple wall stainless vent... Again, this is ADDITIONAL COST for a new build and much higher cost for a retrofit. MUCH MORE COST. Stainless venting alone can cost $50-$100 per FOOT just for the materials without labor! 20 feet times $100 is $2000 more cost than a tank just for the exhaust. (Buy a more expensive condensing model to avoid spending money on stainless venting. Condensing models have secondary and sometimes tertiary heat exchangers that put more heat into the water and less heat up the exhaust. With less exhaust heat, you can avoid the expensive stainless and use PVC which is much cheaper. Condensing models are more efficient with some models at 98% efficiency).
Tankless heaters cost more for new installs and MUCH more on retrofits than a tanked heater and the difference is NOT the profit going into a plumber's pocket. In reality, profit margins on tankless installs are less than the margin for a standard tank replacement. Not everyone is a crook. Some things just cost more; especially technology.
Tankless heaters are a worthwhile investment as long as they are properly maintained. Id' go so far as offering secondary bypass plumbing loop to make de-scaling as easy as possible and also limit scale from moving through the system and clogging up faucet screens.
@@j.thomas7128 it’s a joke weirdo. Don’t be so sensitive.

@@Balzzack it's funny that you say that. I've always worked for myself as an electrician and am very cautious of my surroundings. Things like: don't put tools on peoples countertops, don't wear bags around new cabinets and clean up when you're done. That last few jobs I've been on multiple people commented that they appreciated the fact that I didn't leave a trail of wire bits and other debris in my wake. I just thought it was obvious to pick up after myself. In light of your comments and those of my customers, it appears that there's a bit of a slovenly nature to more than just a few sparkys out there giving us a bad rep. I'm not sure what their problem is? For the amount I charge I have no problem becoming the worlds most expensive house cleaner, work is work. Although, because of that, I will often ask the homeowner if they'd like to pay me to clean or they can deal with it and save a few bucks in the process. About 60% opt to deal with it in a way that's far less then they'd spend on me. As for the rest, I'm more than happy to take the $ from those that just assumed I did it. I guess I'm not the norm. Hope you come across some tidy electricians in the future.

I’ve been a plumber for 23 years and have had my own business for the last 12 years, gas was king for many years but not any more in Australia, coal-fired plants are slowly shutting down here because of the amount of power we are pumping back into the grid.

Humble dude, knows his shit
And piss
But does he really? A tank water heater using electric runs for extremely long times. Pulling in full current that whole time. A tankless will still pull full current but only for as long as that water is turned on. Other words you're only heating the water when you need it not in standby mode as well. You're hot water tank keeps itself hot all day long in that tank. But the tankless only runs when using it.
