Water Heater Types in Raleigh

You rely on your water heater year round for hot showers and baths, dish washing, and laundry. You expect it to perform effectively and efficiently. Whether you’re in the market for a new water heater to replace your existing one, or to be installed in your new home build, then you need it to be of high quality. More importantly, though, you need professional installation so that it is allowed to perform well for the years to come.

Conventional tank storage, tankless, and heat pump water heaters are all options. Talking to your local plumber is a good way to narrow down your options and to make the right decision. For water heaters in Raleigh, NC, call JD Service Now today!

  • Electric or gas tank storage:This type of water heater is by far the most common and popular in America. It will operate on electricity or natural gas, and stores anywhere from 40 to 60 gallons of temperature-controlled water in a tank, to be distributed as needed to your fixtures and faucets. If it’s electric, it contains a heating element that adjusts the temperature of the water. If it runs on gas, there is a burner at the bottom of the tank that heats the water.
  • Tankless: While cost-effective and good for moderate hot water flows, tank storage systems also tend to suffer from standby heat loss because they have to keep the water in that tank at a certain temperature constantly. Tankless water heaters are highly efficient, provide rapid and continuous hot water for as long as you need it, and tend to last longer than tank storage models. Although they often require more upfront investment, they save energy and may benefit you in the long term. They use a highly efficient system of heat exchange to heat your water rapidly on an as-need basis.
  • GeoSpring heat pump: If you already have a heat pump in your home, you know how this type of water heater works. It draws in heat from the surrounding air and uses it to heat the water in your home. It also has an electrical heating element for when you need an extra boost.

You have some great options at your disposal. Just remember to have it professionally installed so that your water heater performs effectively and efficiently.
