Tank vs. Tankless: Which is Right for You?

One of the biggest decisions Garner homeowners face is whether to stick with a traditional tank water heater or upgrade to a tankless model.

  • Tank water heaters store and heat water in advance, making them affordable upfront but less efficient over time.

  • Tankless water heaters heat water on demand, providing continuous hot water and reducing energy bills, though the initial cost is higher.

Bizzy Bee Plumbing can walk you through the pros and cons of each system to help you make the best decision for your home or business.

At Bizzy Bee Plumbing, we specialize in the installation, repair, and maintenance of tankless water heaters in Garner, NC, helping customers upgrade from outdated tank systems to modern, space-saving units from trusted brands.

WHY CHOOSE A TANKLESS

Unlike traditional water heaters that store and preheat water in a tank, tankless systems heat water on demand. This means you’ll never run out of hot water, even during back-to-back showers or heavy household use. Tankless units are also more energy-efficient, since they only heat water when needed, reducing energy costs over time.

Additional benefits include:

  • Compact design – frees up space in utility rooms or garages.

  • Longer lifespan – often lasting 15–20 years with proper maintenance.

  • Reduced risk of leaks – since there’s no large storage tank.

  • Eco-friendly – lower energy use reduces your carbon footprint.

FAQs

What can I do if there's a leak until a plumber arrives?

Shut the water off by turning the valve that’s closest to your water heater off. It’s also a good idea to soak up as much water as possible to prevent damage to your home.

Typically, maintenance involves flushing the tank at least once a year to remove excess minerals. If you have a conventional water heater, the anode rod should be checked at every few years as well.

Tankless water heater units give you hot water on demand without the need to store the water in a tank. Whether or not you’ll benefit from one depends on factors such as the size of your home and your average hot water needs.

You’re welcome to consider a tankless unit or a traditional one for your next water heater installation. You’ll also want to make sure your new water heater is correctly sized for your home and needs to optimize efficiency. Also, newer models have more insulation, which further enhances your savings potential.

Consider replacing the water heater you have if it’s older, in need of repairs more often, or damaged to the point where repairs are no longer cost-effective
