Tips for Installing a Water Heater

Though it’s summer and a water heater may not be on the top of your mind, it’s may be something you should think about, especially as we inch closer to the fall season. There’s nothing worse than waking up on a chilly day with a lack of hot water, so if you believe your water heater needs to be replaced, now is the best time to do it. There are several things you’ll need to take into consideration when you install a new water heater, and in this post, we’re going to give you some tips. 

  1. Choose the right water heater for your needs. With the variety of different heaters available, you can find the water heater that will suit your needs. You have the option of tankless, solar, indirect, and tankless coil water heaters. For example, tankless water heaters are great on energy, but they can be more expensive to install 
  2. Size of the Water Heater. The size of your water heater is something important to consider. Choosing the wrong sized water heater can result in poor energy efficiency, a higher chance of water heater replacement, and a general lack of hot water that will fail to meet anyone’s needs.
  3. Hire the right contractor for the job. Your water heater is an important investment, and you need to make sure the contractor you hire to install it is up for the job.
