Residential Water Heater Options

 

 

The most common water heater in the US today is the gas fueled water heater but there are many other options ranging in size from 20 to 80 gallons and fueled by electricity, natural gas, propane, or oil. A water heater that stores the water in a tank transfers heat from a burner or coil to the water in an insulated tank. A storage tank is not the most energy efficient because heat is lost through the flue (except in electric models) and through the walls of the storage tank, even when water is not being consumed.

In Nevada, water heaters traditionally have been the tank type. Also called storage water heaters, these consist of a cylindrical vessel or container that keeps water continuously hot and ready to use. Typical sizes for household use range from 40 to 75 US gallons. These may use natural gas, propane or heated by electricity. These water heaters have an average life span of 8 to 12 years. As the water tank ages the steel tank will rust and leak which could cause damage to your home. Most home owners don’t notice their water heater until they have a problem. At Reno Plumbing Doctor we can supply and install a new water heater to fit your needs and have it in the same day of your service. We can also provide an extended warranty on any water heater we install.

Hot Water Recirculation Systems

Usually water heaters are located far away from your plumbing fixtures like showers and faucets. Since this is true in most homes a lot of water and energy is wasted before the hot water arrives at the spout. Hot water circulation systems prevent this loss by using small motors to bring hot water to the source. They can drastically cut down heating costs and have other benefits too, like reducing wear on your plumbing system.
