Flow Rate

The flow rate for your water heater comes down to the needs of your home. Most of the tankless water heater designs are made to restrict you to just one or two activities that involve hot water at a time. Larger size tankless systems will allow for more hot water flow at a time. Explain to a plumber the total number of hot water heater uses you may need a peak time such as when your family is getting ready in the morning and they can recommend the ideal system for flow rate.
