Save Water With a Tankless Water Heater and Filtration System

Hot Water With Tankless Water Heater

How we use and respect water should reflect our concern for the future of the resource and what it provides for all of us. You wouldn’t leave your reverse cycle heat pump running while on vacation because it impacts your power bill. Leaving your water running, impacts us all.

Water Heater Efficiency

Saving water, electricity, and money intersect at your water heater. A water heater with a tank, as you know, needs to be cleaned and serviced to prevent bursting, precipitating damages. When you buy a Rinnai hot water system your water will be instantly hot and your bills instantly lower.

Tankless Water Heater Advantages

A tankless or instant water heater includes more advantages.

  • Installation is easier, the units take up less than 2% of the physical space and can be easily accessible for rare maintenance needs.
  • There is no annual cleaning required, and despite requiring less maintenance have a long service life of 20 years. Save every year for 20 years.
  • No more waiting for the hot water to reach the shower head or faucet. When you select hot, you get hot. The temperature control is also more responsive when ready to cool things off.

Water Quality and Filtration

During questionable water supply quality, gain confidence and peace of mind from a whole-house filtration and purification system. There are layers of protection you can install one by one.

  • We should have a basic sediment and carbon filter bank attached to the municipal water supply or property well. This will catch the loose sediment and particulate contaminates.
  • Incorporating a UV light will rid all incoming water of pathogens. They are inexpensive to install and operate.
  • If you live in a hard water municipality a salt-flushing water softener will reduce your total dissolved solids for a smooth feel and less calcium buildup in pipes and fixtures.
  • The next upgrade is a reverse osmosis (RO) membrane bank. RO will remove nearly all solids and run pure water through your entire house.
  • De-ionized (DI) water is nuclear reactor-safe water. Water is actually not a conductor of electricity. It is all the solids in the water that allow electricity to pass through it. Pure water is an isolator and is used in massive powerful reactors as such.

Better-tasting water will help you drink more and be healthier. Clean water makes coffee taste better. Tonight cook two pots of mulligatawny, one with pure water, and one with water from your faucet. See which tastes better. You win either way.

Stay in the ear of your local leaders. Billions of our tax dollars are available in government grants for water programs and initiatives. They need to speak up and get funded for the solutions your city requires for a better, cleaner, and healthier life.

Don’t let them drip us dry with taxes and leave us without a drop to drink.
