The stakes are always high for commercial businesses’ decisions and especially those related to equipment investments. Every penny adds up and, in some industries like restaurants, margins are notoriously unforgiving. Equipment downtime is costly, whether or not it is planned, and hot water is very often a non-negotiable element of either the customer experience (i.e., hotels, multifamily homes, college dorms, office buildings, etc.) or production process (i.e., restaurants, manufacturing and more).
When it comes to water heaters, some business owners and building operators might see these factors as reasons to stick to the traditional, tank-type water heaters that have done the trick for decades. But if these considerations are assessed objectively, they all actually play into the three greatest strengths of a tankless water heating system.
