Best high- efficiency water heaters!
A water heater uses about 20% of the energy in our homes, but we seldom think about this when we buy a water heater. Only about 15% of the cost of a conventional water heater is the cost of the device itself. The other 80 % is the cost for the energy needed to heat the water, usually natural gas. The idea is simple: spend more on the water heater and less on the energy you buy to fuel the water heater.
Factors to consider when looking at an efficient water heater
- Budget: the first thing people think of is cost.
- Accept new technologies: how far are you willing to go with your choices.
- Energy efficiency: ranges from 50% to 300%.
- Operation cost: how much is it going to cost you to operate the unit over its life.
Examples of high-efficiency water tanks
- Power-vented natural gas tank: similar to conventional, 85% efficient, fast heat recovery
- Tankless-natural gas water heater: unlimited hot water, frees of space, 98% efficient
- Hybrid heat pump water heater: 300% efficient, electric (suitable for solar homes), slower heat recovery
Most common problems with water heaters
- The water turns smelly
- The tank becomes noisy
- The water tank produces too little hot water.
- The water tank does not produce hot water at all
- The tank is leaking
