When you’re getting a new water heater, remember two important things: the type of fuel it uses and whether you want a regular tank or a tankless one. Think about your home’s age, how it’s built, and its layout to figure out which fuel is best for you—electricity, gas, or oil. Each type has its pros cons, and availability can vary depending on where you live. Also, decide if you prefer a traditional tank water heater or a tankless one. Traditional tank water heaters keep hot water in a big tank for your home. They’re easy to install and cheaper at first, but they use more energy and don’t last as long.
On the other hand, tankless water heaters heat water when you need it, saving space and energy. They cost more at first and might not handle big demands well, but they give you endless hot water.
Think about how much hot water you need, the space you have, and your budget before choosing between traditional tanks and tankless heaters.
Once you’ve settled on the fuel type and model, the next step is determining the right size for your water heater. It’s not a straightforward task, but the best approach involves estimating your peak hot water usage and selecting a model slightly larger than that. If you’re unsure, our experts can assist in calculating the appropriate size according to your household’s needs. Avoid the temptation to buy the largest water heater available. It might be more than necessary, leading to higher energy costs as it keeps unused water hot continuously. Conversely, a tank that’s too small results in frequent hot water shortages.
Energy efficiency is crucial too. Large tank models can significantly increase energy bills over time, erasing any initial savings. Opt for a model with good energy efficiency ratings to save money throughout its lifespan.
Just like your other plumbing fixtures, your water heater needs regular maintenance. Without it, you might face issues like inconsistent hot water for showers, laundry, or dishes. What starts as a small inconvenience can turn into a big problem affecting your daily life.
Even the best water heater can lose efficiency if it’s not installed properly. To guarantee optimal performance, it’s crucial to hire someone with the right tools and experience for the job.

This depends on factors like your hot water usage, budget, and available space. Tankless systems deliver hot water on demand but are more expensive. Traditional tank heaters are cheaper but need space and constantly reheat water, impacting energy bills.
While technically possible, it’s strongly recommended to hire a licensed plumber. Improper installation can create safety hazards like gas leaks, water damage, and void warranties. Plumbers know local codes and have the expertise for a smooth installation.
