Electric Water Heaters

Serving Vancouver WA | Portland OR

Your electric water heater is responsible for heating up the water used in the home. Unlike a fuel-powered water heater, there are no fuel lines or deliveries required. Many homeowners find that electric water heaters are easier to maintain and may even save them money over time. There are no pilot lights involved and they are a safer and more efficient option when compared to other choices.

Types of Electric Water Heaters

• Standard Tank: Standard tanks come in all different sizes, and we’ll help you to choose the size of the tank depending on your family and the amount of water usage that is normal for you. The tank will fill up with water from your well or public water supply and the heating elements inside work to heat the water before it is dispersed throughout the house. Standard electric tanks are the most common and are often the most affordable when it comes to installation.
• High-Efficiency Tank: A high-efficiency tank is ideal for homeowners who want to keep track of the usage of their tanks and how they function. These types of tanks often have built-in sensors that can monitor for leaks and other problems, like a blown internal element. While more expensive, these tanks can save you money long-term by allowing you to control temperature and use the water heater in a way that is more efficient.
• Hybrid Heat Pump: A hybrid heat pump will actually pull air from around the water heater to efficiently warm the water. In short, the hybrid option uses a type of HVAC system to actually heat the water that you will be using in the home. This provides you with a more efficient option that will save you money by using less energy throughout the building.
