Water Heaters

Did you know water heaters typically account for 17 percent of the average Sparks homeowner’s energy use?

Choosing the right water heater and taking good care of it goes a long way toward adding comfort and value to your home. And it can also help lower your utility bills.

Water heaters come in various shapes, sizes, and designs to accommodate different homes and needs. Our team at Nevada Heating, Cooling, Plumbing, Fireplace wants to help you find the water heater that perfectly fits your household.

In recent years, water heaters have become much more efficient, thanks to growing consumer awareness. Many Nevada homeowners are switching to energy-saving models. While some of these heaters cost more up front, they save money in the long run and are easier on the environment.

Traditional Storage Water Heaters

Traditional storage tank water heaters are the most affordable and popular tanks on the market. They resemble a large metal barrel. The water enters through the main water supply pipe. The tank then heats the water and keeps it at the desired temperature, using energy such as natural gas, propane, oil, or electricity.

Storage water heaters typically last 10 to 15 years. The tank can hold 20 to 80 gallons of water at a time. Insulated models keep the water hot for longer periods, helping you save on utilities. These systems are reliable, affordable, and relatively easy to install.

Tankless Water Heaters

Want a more sustainable solution? A tankless water heater may be more fitting to your Sparks home’s needs. It works differently than a traditional storage water heater.

Rather than keeping heated water stored, a tankless water heater heats cold water on demand—whenever you turn on a faucet. No more waiting for your water to heat up.

Without the need to store gallons of water, there’s no tank, making the tankless heater much more compact. This provides you more flexibility when it comes to installation in your Nevada home. Our Nevada Heating, Cooling, Plumbing, Fireplace team also offers options for both indoor and outdoor models.

With this type of on-demand process, the energy efficiency is high. You are only using energy to heat the water precisely when you need it, so this keeps your energy costs low by conserving water. You will more than make up the initial cost of your tankless model in energy savings over the long haul.

Water Heater Maintenance

Did you know yearly maintenance is an important part of maintaining your water heater? Let our team take care of all your maintenance needs. We can catch issues early to prevent costly repairs in the future.

Regular professional maintenance can help with the following:

• Water tanks are vulnerable to corrosion over time. Your anode rod, which protects your tank from corrosion, needs to be checked and replaced.
• The tank needs to be drained and flushed once a year to remove buildup. Sediment buildup can damage your tank over years.
• Mechanical components, like the pilot light, are vulnerable to problems over time and need to be cleaned and checked to prevent unexpected, costly repairs or replacements.

Your water heater is covered along with your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. A membership gives you maintenance reminders, priority service, discounts, and more.
