Water heaters account for almost 20% of the energy used in the average home—more than a refrigerator, dishwasher, clothes washer, and dryer combined. An important element of an ENERGY STAR® Home Upgrade is a heat pump water heater that earns the ENERGY STAR label. These units are up to four times more efficient and use 70% less energy than a standard model*. An efficient water heater can save homeowners up to $300 per year.

Tankless Water Heaters

Natural gas tankless water heaters heat water as it is needed and for as long as you need it, helping to save 25%-50% in water heating costs over a standard tank-type heater. These water heaters don’t have a tank, so they are less susceptible to leaks and they have a more compact design. An ENERGY STAR certified gas tankless water heater has a secondary heat exchanger which uses about 9% less energy than a conventional gas tankless unit.
