A potential downside is that while tankless units provide continuous hot water, they have a flow rate limit. Running multiple high-demand fixtures simultaneously might reduce the temperature of the water. This is something we consider when sizing a unit for your Iowa home.
Whether a tankless unit can run two showers depends on the combined flow rate of the showerheads and the unit's capacity. We calculate your household's peak demand to ensure the selected model can handle simultaneous use. This prevents temperature fluctuations in your Des Moines residence.
