Choosing the right type of water heater for your home

tank type water heater

Tank type water heaters are the most common choice for homeowners.

Upgrading your water heater can help improve your home's energy efficiency and save you money on utility costs. Here are the major types of water heaters available:

  • Tank-type water heater: These are the most common type of water heaters, typically coming in a 60-gal. or 80-gal. tank. The fuel source for these water heaters can be electricity, natural gas, propane, or fuel oil. Some models include insulated tanks to reduce heat loss.
  • Heat pump water heater: Heat pump water heaters also qualify as tank-type water heaters and use electricity to heat the water. This type of water heater is about twice as efficient as a conventional electric tank-type water heater. However, installation requires either the presence of a heat pump system or the installation of one.
  • Tankless water heater: Tankless, or "demand" water heaters, are unique because the remain in standby mode until a hot water tap is opened. This allows them to use only the required amount of energy, as water flows automatically through a heat exchanger that is typically powered by natural gas. While more expensive to install, these systems are far more efficient for homeowners whose houses are empty much of the day or who don't consume large amounts of hot water at one time.
  • Indirect water heating system: This system utilizes the furnace or boiler to heat water for washing, so a separate water heater isn't required. With this type of system, you only pay for heating water when your whole-house heating system isn't operating.
  • Solar water heater: Also known as a solar thermal system, a solar water heater is actually a preheating system that feeds into a tankless or tank-type water heater. When the sun is shining, solar energy alone may provide sufficient heat for the water you're using. Otherwise, you'll need to use backup heat for your hot water supply.

Water heater repair services

If your water heater is malfunctioning, J.R. Snider can provide you with an evaluation and complete repair services.

If you're having issues with a lack of hot water or water pressure problems, we can also help.

If your water heater is leaking, it's important that you get professional repair services right away. While some leaks can be repaired, in many cases this is a sign that your water heater needs replacement. A full rupture will cause significant water damage to your home.
