Water Heater Replacement in Luxembourg – Tank vs Tankless Guide
Water Heater Replacement Guide for Luxembourg
If your water heater is over 10 years old, it's time to consider replacement before it fails — usually at the worst possible moment.
Tank vs Tankless — Which is Better?
| Feature | Tank (Boiler) | Tankless (Instantaneous) | |---------|-------------|------------------------| | Hot water supply | Limited by tank size | Unlimited | | Energy efficiency | 60–70% | 90–98% | | Space needed | Large (150–300L tank) | Wall-mounted, compact | | Installation cost | €800–€1,500 | €1,500–€3,000 | | Running cost/year | €400–€600 | €200–€350 | | Lifespan | 10–15 years | 15–20 years |
