When selecting a new water heater for your home, there are several factors you’ll want to consider. The most important thing to consider is the capacity of your new water heater. You want a water heater that will produce enough hot water for all the activities in your home. However, you don’t want to purchase a water heater that’s too large, as it will simply run up your energy bills and cost more. If you’re unsure about the appropriate size water heater for your home, one of our plumbing professionals will be more than happy to help.
Another thing to consider is the type of fuel you want your water heater to run on. Electric heaters are the most common, as they’re easy to install and cost-effective. If you have natural gas or propane at your home, you may want a water heater that runs on gas.
There are two styles of water heaters, which are tank and tankless. Tank heaters are the most affordable. They do, however, take up more space than their tankless counterparts and have a shorter lifespan. Tankless heaters have much higher operating efficiencies and can provide virtually endless amounts of hot water for your home. Tankless units can even make you eligible to receive a federal tax credit and local rebates from your utility provider.
