How to Buy a Water Heater
So you are tired of the rickety, rusting huge tank in the side of your house that has prevented you from growing a garden all these years, but don’t know what to do with it or how to replace it. It has come time to for you to buy a new water heater. This can be a daunting task, with so many options, brands, and various decisions to make, but it has to start somewhere.
The first step is to decide if you want an electric or gas water heater. An electric water heater tends to work better for smaller families and is eco-friendly, by reducing the carbon footprint left behind. A gas water heater, on the other hand, is great for a larger need of hot water, since it can heat more water in a quick amount of time. It does not require rewiring or additional wiring of a house to support the extra effort to heat the water, as an electric heater might.
After that, you want to decide if you want a tankless or a traditional water heater that includes the tank. A tankless water heater will save you more space and money on water heating costs, while an original water heater with a holding tank can heat more water at once and have a longer lasting supply of hot water.
Once you know what kind of water heater you are looking for, the sky is the limit! Many places offer installation, and some installation companies are available for same day installation. This is especially helpful in looking for a hot water heater to replace your old one when it sporadically breaks down to the point of no return.
So now the steps for finding the perfect new water heater for your home have been laid out- good luck with your search!
