Why Installing a Propane Water Heater in Your Home is the Smart Choice

A water heater is an appliance that is constantly running in your home, ensuring you and your family have hot water when its needed. With it accounting for about 20% of your home’s energy bill, why not choose a water heater that is energy efficient and perhaps environmentally friendly?

Did you know that a propane water heater can provide both of these benefits? Propane water heaters are currently one of the most energy efficient and environmentally friendly water heaters on the market.

Compared to oil, electric and gas hot water tanks, propane water heaters are more cost efficient, not just for energy bills, but for the unit itself. Propane powered hot water tanks tend to be less expensive than other units. You will also notice the cost different on your energy bill. Propane tends to be more cost efficient than electricity, especially with the constant increase in rates, resulting in smaller energy bills. Since water heaters are constantly running, you won’t have to worry about the increased rates during peak hours like you do with electricity operated water heaters.

Propane hot water heaters are also more environmentally friendly than other units. Propane is non-toxic, lead free and has low sulphur levels - reducing the risk to acid rain. This source of energy also has lower carbon emissions when used to power a hot water heater compared to other hot water tanks.

Along with the benefits of a propane water heater being cost efficient and environmentally friendly, there are other benefits to using a propane unit. Propane water heaters also tend to heat water at a faster rate than other units, as well as have a faster recovery time. This means that your hot water heater doesn’t need to store a ton of hot water in order to keep up with the demand.
