Whether it’s time to replace your existing water heater or install a new one, it’s important to choose one well-suited to your needs. When you reach out to a plumber from BullsEye Plumbing Heating & Air, we’ll gladly discuss your options so you can make a confident decision. Below, we go over some of the factors to consider as you explore the possibilities with water heaters.
How Much Hot Water Do You Regularly Use?
The first thing to consider with water heater installation is how much water you regularly use. A good way to make this estimate is to go by family size. With a 1-2 person household, for example, a 23 to 36-gallon water heater is typically recommended.
Do You Prefer Traditional or Tankless?
With water heater replacement, you’re welcome to consider upgrades to more efficient models. But if you do prefer to stay with a standard model, newer tank-based water heaters are insulated better due to changes with insulation requirements. This is something that can reduce heat loss and ultimately boost efficiency.
If the potential for long-term savings and hot water on-demand appeals more to you, a tankless water heater is worth considering. As the name implies, it operates without a tank, and it provides hot water only when it’s needed. They also take up much less space.
What Works for Your Budget?
Tankless models usually have a higher upfront cost than traditional systems. However, you can recoup your initial costs over time, thanks to their longer lifespan and better energy efficiency. Also, water heater repair is much more straightforward with tankless units.
Additionally, consider what upgrades or adjustments you may need if you’re thinking about switching to a different type of water heater. The type of fuel used can also affect costs over time.
