Steamy showers and hot dish washing water are just a couple of the simple pleasures an effective hot water tank offers us. If your existing hot water tank is between 6–12 years old, it may be time to start shopping for your next one.
Of course, like all things, advancements in the industry mean there are updated products and new things for you to research and decide before buying.
Luckily, there are only a couple things you need to consider when choosing your next water heater, but they’re important ones! Let’s go over what you need to know before making this big purchase.
Technically, you could have an electric or gas hot water tank, but one is far more common in homes than the other… Can you guess which one?
If you guessed gas, you’d be correct!
Electric tanks require much more space in order to be vented properly and are much more common in office spaces.
Getting the most expensive tank doesn’t necessarily mean you’re getting the best tank for your situation. But saving on the initial tank cost doesn’t always mean you’ll be saving in the long run! And choosing to save by passing on your warranty can be a costly risk we certainly don’t suggest taking.
Working with a trusted company that has partnered with high-quality brand options is your best bet. We partner with some of the best small businesses in Alberta with trusted partnerships and experts to help you find the most affordable option, both for installation and down the road.
It's “down the road” costs that can really impact the value of your hot water tank and the investment you’ll want to make into purchasing something efficient!
