Are you on the lookout for a new water heater? Here are the different types of water heaters on the market today!
Tankless Water Heater
These types of water heaters use heating coils, rather than a tank, to heat water on an as-need basis. Tankless water heaters are compact in size, and they offer the convenience of having hot water available, at any time – without going through the trouble of dealing with a heavy tank. These models use heating coils to heat water and are proven to be highly energy-efficient. Tankless water heaters are also widely thought to be best in homes that use natural gas.
Conventional Water Heater
The most conventional type of water heater is the storage tank heater. This water heater model uses an insulated tank to store water – the water is heated here, and then kept for use. Normally, these types of conventional water heaters tend to use less energy and cost less to operate.
Storage Tank Water Heater
