4 Major Types Of Economic Water Heaters

First comes the insulation. Adding insulation to the water heater can reduce standby heat losses by 25%-45%. This will save you around 4%-9% in water heating costs. Insulating your storage water heater tank is fairly simple and inexpensive, and it will pay for itself in about a year. If you have an electric water heater, then you can install an insulating pre-cut jacket or blanket on your electric water heater tank yourself.

Economic Tankless Water Heaters are becoming popular at the moment. These models don't waste any water, and are very efficient because water is only heated when it's needed. The electronic ignition ignites only when hot water is being requested. They work similar to a car radiator but in the exact opposite way. As a oppose to the car radiator that cools the water flowing through it, the economical tankless water heater heats the water flowing through the tubes being heated.

Currently, the solar energy is the cleanest of all and we have barely even become to understand how to utilize its full potential. Solar Water Heaters are definitely the most economic water heaters of all. The sun heats up the water, it's simple as that. The US Government supports such projects through special incentives and tax cuts. Of course, those heaters depend on having a lot of sunny days throughout the year, so your location makes a serious difference. By installing a solar water heater, homeowners in Arizona could save between 50 and 90 percent on their bill (depending on the efficiency of the solar water heating system and the amount of hot water used). But we all know that Arizona is one of the sunniest states in America. Another drawback is that the cost for the initial setup is higher. Initial investment in a solar water heater can vary greatly. Costs can range from $2,000 to $5,000.
