Choosing a Water Heater

When selecting a water heater, there are a few factors to keep in mind. The most important is the type of heating system. Most water heaters use either an electric heating element or a gas flame to heat the water. There are other options as well, including solar-powered water heaters and heat pumps. It is important to understand the pros and cons of each system to make an informed decision.

Consider the following when choosing a water heater:

• How many people will be using the water?
• What is the average cost of utility bills?
• Is there a gas line nearby?
• What is the average lifespan of the system?
• How much does it cost to run?
