WATER HEATERS

You’re in Hot Water with Propane. That’s a Good Thing.

Propane gives you more hot water at a more affordable price. That’s why millions of American homes use propane to heat water for their showers, washing machines, and dishwashers.

Propane Water Heaters Beat Electric Models.

• Smaller storage space requirements
• More accurate temperature adjustment
• Wider selection of sizes, installation, and venting options
• More durable components and longer-lasting heating elements
• Have a faster recovery rate (American Water Heater Company)
• Emit 60% fewer greenhouse gases

Tankless Propane Water Heaters Heat On Demand.

Homeowners spend 10 – 20 percent of their annual water heating costs just to keep the water in their storage tanks hot. Propane tankless water heaters heat water only when it is needed, thereby reducing standby energy loss by up to 20 percent and costing approximately 60 percent less to operate.

• Water is heated instantly, as needed, thus saving both water and energy
• Small size saves space and provides limitless installation options either inside or outside the home
• The unit lacks a tank, reducing the risk of corrosion, and offering a life expectancy of approximately 20 years
