tankless

Heats water directly

Tankless describes water heaters that heat water on demand rather than storing it in a reservoir.

A tankless water heater heats water as it flows through the unit, eliminating the standby energy loss of keeping a tank constantly hot.

The term appears almost exclusively in discussions of plumbing and home appliances.
