Hybrid Water Heater

A hybrid water heater pairs a small storage tank with tankless-style efficiency, so it only warms pre-tempered water and keeps a continuous flow of hot water across several fixtures. The cost depends on the unit and tank size you choose, whether you are replacing a tank or tankless heater, and the installation work involved. Call when you are planning a water heater replacement and want steady hot water without a large tank.

Benjamin Franklin Plumbing is known to provide Phoenix with the best when it comes to Hybrid water heaters.

The hybrid water heater maintains water pressure and consistent supply of hot water across multiple hot water applications, and like its tankless cousins, the hybrid is efficient and can supply a continuous flow of hot water on demand.[2] The hybrid approach is designed to eliminate general shortcomings of other technologies. For example, hybrids are activated by either thermostat (similar to tanked) or flow (similar to tankless). Hybrids have small storage tanks that temper incoming cold water. This means hybrids only have to increase water temperature from warm to hot as opposed to tankless which has to raise completely cold water to hot. The defining characteristics of a “hybrid water heater” are:

  • A combination of water flow of tank and efficiency of tankless of water heater

  • Built-in small storage water reservoir as part of heat exchanger (typically between two gallons to 20 gallons)

  • Dual activation: flow sensing and thermostat control

Frequently asked questions

What is a hybrid water heater?

A hybrid water heater combines the water flow of a tank heater with the efficiency of a tankless one. It has a small built-in storage reservoir as part of its heat exchanger.

How is a hybrid different from a tankless water heater?

A hybrid's small tank tempers incoming cold water, so it only raises water from warm to hot. A tankless heater has to heat completely cold water.

How does a hybrid water heater turn on?

Hybrids use dual activation: they respond to a thermostat, like a tank heater, and to water flow, like a tankless heater.

How big is the storage tank on a hybrid water heater?

The built-in reservoir is small, typically between two and twenty gallons, and forms part of the heat exchanger.

Can a hybrid supply hot water to several fixtures at once?

Yes. A hybrid maintains water pressure and a consistent supply of hot water across multiple hot water uses, with a continuous flow on demand.

Do you install and service hybrid and tankless water heaters?

Yes. Our plumbers install, change and service tankless water heaters and hybrid units for homes across Phoenix.
