Why You Should Buy A New Water Heater
Yes I know -- a new water heater is not a trivial purchase -- but if you're existing home water heater has seen better days, you would be well advised to purchase a new one, especially before the cold winter months set in.
One of the reasons why you should look into the purchase of a new water heater is because of the great energy efficiency of these units. High-efficiency water heaters can reduce your water heating bill 20%-60% or more. Some high-energy water heating systems are so efficient that they can repay their entire purchase cost within their first year of operation!
Another reason for purchasing a new system is that with these newer, more efficient models you can literally heat your entire house. Whole house tankless water heater systems can save you an enormous amount of money on reduced energy expenditures -- and you can purchase these units to accommodate the hot water needs of the largest and most active families.
Another reason for purchasing newer model water heaters is that they are highly configurable. For example, you can supplement your whole house tankless water heater system with one or more instant hot water heaters -- these can be installed underneath sinks and countertops to provide extra hot water heating capacity during periods of peak demand. There are a number of fairly reputable manufacturers of water heaters and water heating systems -- perhaps one of the most well-known names is Rheem. For many years Rheem hot water heaters have been a choice of plumbers and HVAC professionals. Rheem hot water heaters are available that operate on natural gas, electric, tankless, and even solar power. Another well-known name in the water heater field is Titan. Titan electric water heaters are available in a number of different models including ones that are designed for high-demand applications. With the tankless models, you can enjoy long, leisurely showers and never run out of hot water. Another reason for investing in a new-model water heater is that the materials they are constructed from are very durable -- much more durable than in years gone by. Reliance hot water heaters are an example -- they have a long serviceable life, and their manufacturers warranties are very generous -- that's because of their quality construction. A very important reason for investing in newer-generation water heaters is that they are environmentally friendly. Water heaters like Bosch tankless water heaters or Rinnai tankless water heaters not only save your energy costs, but require less energy to operate -- and many of these models (such as the Noritz tankless water heater) have components that are recyclable. So whether it's a long service life, or environmentally friendly features, ease of operation, or saving on your home water heating bill -- the latest generation of water heaters are certainly worth a look.
