After escaping the pandemic, and noting our new, high cost of living, many of us want a more simplified and less stressful life. We want freedom from living with all the clutter around us in our big houses, which have more than double the space found in a typical home of the 1950s. It’s been said that more than half of Americans are thinking about moving into a space less than 600 square feet. The tiny-life philosophy inclines us to spend less, be less busy and enjoy life more with time for family, and friends, and do the things we always wanted to do.

The biggest problem we have is finding room for everything in our new tiny space.

One way to save a lot of space is to install a tankless water heater. While conventional water heaters can be as tall as five feet and as wide as two feet, a tankless water heater measures about 28 inches high and 20 inches wide.

Tankless water heaters have other features that make them desirable for a minimalist way of life. They save as much as 35% on energy bills because they only heat hot water when you want it, unlike traditional water heaters that keep water hot all day and night, whether you want it or not.
