The Types Of Water Heaters We Service
There are various types of water heaters, and we provide services for all of them, including:
- Conventional Tank Water Heaters: These heaters, also known as tank water heaters, use electricity or gas for fuel and can heat anywhere from 20 to 100 gallons of water at a time. While effective, they are less economical than modern tankless water heaters.
- Tankless Water Heaters: These units, as the name suggests, do not have holding tanks. They use super-heated coils to rapidly heat cold water and are fueled by natural gas or electricity. Tankless water heaters are faster, more efficient, and provide an endless supply of hot water.
- Combination Boiler Water Heaters: These units are designed to heat the home through radiant heating and provide hot water to plumbing fixtures.
- Point-of-Use Water Heaters: These units supply hot water directly to individual plumbing fixtures and have smaller capacities than whole-home water heaters.
