Even though I have some really nice pieces in my collection, I wouldn't necessarily call myself an antique collector in the traditional sense of the word. That somehow always makes me think of very conservative people who won't let you near their collectibles, and I don't think that having that attitude allows them to enjoy owning their antiques, because they're constantly worried that somehow they'll be damaged if anyone touches them. I like to think of myself as a free-spirit collector. I value my antiques, of course, but I don't want to feel like they possess me, instead of the other way around.
I enjoy many things but I love history and home decorating. I found a way to combine the two, and that is through antiquing. I love looking for a piece of furniture, hearing its history, and seeing all the little details that make each piece unique. Along the way, I have collected some great pieces and learned a few things. Blogging about it seemed like a great way to share what I've learned and talk about my passions. I hope you enjoy reading Favorite Antiques as much I enjoy antiquing.
As long as demand levels do not exceed the heating capabilities of the water heater, an indefinite amount of hot water can be used when a tankless system is properly installed.

Now here's some good news: tankless water heaters are considered by most manufacturers, critics, and contractors to be a green technology.
One common issue that is often ignored involves overheating. If a tankless water heater is used for a prolonged period, it can build up enough heat to cause damage.
When you can keep your water heater operating at peak efficiency, it will be able to provide you with 20+ years of service.
