Based on what you told us above we pull data specific to your home and area to calculate how much CO2 and money you’ll save. This data includes your utility rates, how electricity is generated in your area and local groundwater temperatures, specifics of your current water heater, and an estimate of your hot water usage.

If you live in Washington state or Oregon, contact us and we’ll connect you with our installation specialists to discuss options for your home.  If you live outside of these states please contact your local plumber or find a pro through Rheem, Bradford White or A O Smith.

Several factors impact how long your hot water heater should last, but typically a gas burning unit will last 8-12 years and a standard (non-heat pump) unit will last 10-13 years. Upgrading your water heater before it fails saves money on energy bills and avoids the dreaded cold shower!  You can lookup how old your water heater is here
