Water Heaters

 

Natural gas water heaters heat your water three times as fast as an electric unit

SOAK UP THE WARMTH

Natural gas water heaters give you all the hot water you need, when you need it, even during a power outage. And natural gas heats your water three times as fast as electricity. Since no two families are alike, lifestyle and habits should be considered when estimating water heater needs. The best size will depend on the number and age of family members, how many dishes and clothes are washed, and the number of bathrooms in the home.

Next to space heating, water heating is the second largest portion of energy use in your home – about 15% to 20%. That's why it makes sense to choose an efficient natural gas water heater. Look for a water heater with a high energy factor (EF). The higher the better! Models that vent directly through an outside wall means there is no need for a chimney.
