When it comes to selecting a new water heater, it’s essential to weigh the following factors carefully:
There are primarily two types of water heaters: tankless and tank-based. Tank-based water heaters store hot water in a tank, while tankless water heaters heat water on demand.
Consider the fuel type of the water heater you choose. Traditional tank-based heaters typically use electricity or natural gas, while tankless options may use electric or propane.
The size of your water heater should be based on the number of people in your household and your daily hot water usage. Larger families may require a bigger water heater for a consistent supply of hot water.
Efficiency is key to saving on energy costs. Look for a water heater with a high Energy Factor (EF) rating for optimal efficiency.
In addition to the unit’s price, consider installation and maintenance costs when selecting a water heater.
Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity of your water heater. Opt for units with replaceable anode rods to extend your heater’s lifespan.
