Save time and money. Whether someone in your household took a cold shower this morning or you plan to remodel, this site compiles curated information to help you buy your next water heater.

Water heaters are the second energy user in the average residential home (~20% of total) after space heating and cooling. “Your home’s water heater uses more energy than your refrigerator, clothes washer, dishwasher, and dryer combined!” – Source: ENERGY STAR®

Most people only buy 2 or 3 water heaters in their lifetime. Your decision today will impact your pocket book, your comfort and the environment for many years to come.

The most common choices are:

-Option 1: Replace your standard gas water heater by a similar model. Or choose the unlimited supply of hot water and space savings with an indoor or outdoor tankless gas water heater, non-condensing or ENERGY STAR condensing. Or decide to switch from gas to electric with an ENERGY STAR electric Heat Pump water heater (120V or 240V).

-Option 2:  Replace your standard electric water heater by a similar model or upgrade to an ENERGY STAR electric Heat Pump water heater (240V).

There are other options like Tankless electric or Solar thermal but they are not commonplace and present substantial purchase cost or operating cost limitations.
