Water heaters are generally located far away from fixtures like showers and faucets. A lot of water and energy is wasted before the hot water arrives at the spout. Hot water circulation systems prevent this loss by using small motors to bring hot water to the source. They can drastically cut down heating costs and have other benefits too, like reducing wear on your plumbing system.
High-efficiency tankless water heaters provide endless domestic hot water, all while keeping your utility bills low.
Navien premium non-condensing tankless water heaters deliver a continuous flow of hot water for as long as you need it. No waiting for a tank to reheat more water, wasting time and energy. NPN & NHW-A series are the only non-condensing tankless water heaters to offer NaviTech™ stainless steel heat exchanger and stainless steel burner for durable and eco-friendly performance.
In Nevada, water heaters traditionally have been the tank type. Also called storage water heaters, these consist of a cylindrical vessel or container that keeps water continuously hot and ready to use. Typical sizes for household use range from 40 to 75 US gallons. These may use natural gas, propane or heated by electricity. These water heaters have an average life span of 8 to 12 years. As the water tank ages the steel tank will rust and leak which could cause damage to your home or business. Most home owners don’t notice their water heater until they have a problem. At Reno Plumbing Doctor we can supply and install a new water heater to fit your needs and have it in the same day of your service. We can also provide an extended warranty on any water heater we install.
Tankless water heaters heat water only as it’s needed, which makes them more efficient than even the highest-efficiency tank style gas water heater. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, tankless water heaters can be up to 34% more efficient than storge tank water heaters.
