Electric hot water heaters are widely used across American homes. Both storage type as well as electric tankless water heaters are seen as more conventional models that are cheaper to purchase as well as install. The energy efficiency of an electric water heater may not be as high as a gas model, however. These are traditional technologies that have been used for heating needs in homes and commercial establishments for decades now.
The first point in favor of an electric hot water heater is the cost factor. It costs much less to purchase an electric water heater which can typically cost between $500 and $700. Compare this with a gas water heater that costs more than $1000 on an average. The cost of installing an electric water heater is also much lesser. However, in the case of electric tankless water heaters, you may need to determine if the wiring of your home can support a tankless system. There are also other factors like voltage, amperage and circuit breaker requirements that are involved.
Compare different brands of electric water heaters before you settle on a model. Popular brands include Bradford White electric water heaters and Bosch electric water heaters.
