So no matter the circumstance, we have an option for your needs and, most importantly, your budget.
Types of Water Heaters
There are several types of water heaters, both in how they heat and the energy/fuel source they use to create the heat. The 3 main categories are: Conventional, Tankless and Hybrid water heaters. With the main differences being:
- Fuel Type – Electric water heaters and gas water heaters
- Heating Type – Tank water heaters vs. tankless water heaters / on-demand hot water heaters
Traditionally your hot water heater would use the same fuel type as your heating & cooling system; ie, if your furnace were a natural gas furnace, then you’d most likely have a gas water heater, and vice versa for electric. There are energy-efficient options in both gas and electric water heaters.
When the heating system of the water heater is instant or on-demand, they are normally called tankless water heaters. These systems run water through a heating element that heats it as it passes over/through, providing an “endless” supply of hot water.
Ensuring that you are the correctly sized and spec’d water heater is an important role of high-quality plumbing services, and the master plumbers at Smedley can do just that!
