Can I use a tankless water heater if I have a well water supply?
Question:
Answers:
You can, the main concern here is going to be the mineral content of your water. Tankless heaters need to be de-scaled every few years, if you have a high mineral content, it may need it more often. It's not a complex or expensive process, it's just one most tankless owners either don't know or don't do.
There may also be some concerns about flow rate. The lower end tankless units output is based solely on flow rate and the tempurature of the incomeing water. Higher end units (such as the Bosch AquaStar) have variable burners or elements that allow you to set the tempurature of the output and it will adjust accordingly, regardless of the flow or incoming water temp.
No u cant! ¬_¬
yes you can,,, but you need to filter it first before you can use it for. the well will serve as a tank and you can always draw from it,,, provided it does not dry up of course
Yes.
If it's electric heater, the minimum pressure required will have to be maintained.
Not sure about a gas heater though, but I'm sure it'll have minimum requirements your well will have to meet.
One customer I have has a well and tankless. The manufacturer strongly recommended her to get a softener, so keep that in mind.
it does depend on the mineral content of your well have your water tested before you put in a tankless water heater. i have one and i love it. it is also great on my elec. bill.
