- tankless
- gas
- electric
- solar
- commercial
- traditional
Tankless Water Heaters
Tankless water heaters are a popular choice, especially for businesses since they are unlimited in terms of capacity. Hot water is available right where you need it, when you need it. If you have expansion plans, tankless water heaters are especially ideal, since they can provide as much hot water as your business needs. They don’t store water, so there’s no taking up space with a giant water tank. They also help to conserve water, which is a primary concern for both home and business owners in Sunnyvale and surrounding areas.
Gas Water Heaters
If gas is your fuel source, it makes sense to choose a gas water heater, although it’s not your only option. Gas water heaters in Sunnyvale remain a standard that many property owners rely on. They’re often able to heat water faster than electric water heaters, and consistently cost less to run. Safety is key, so routine maintenance is essential.
Electric Water Heaters
Electric water heaters work by heating water as the tank fills. Sensors activate the heating elements, heating the water inside the tank. As an example, these types of heaters can take an estimated hour to hour and a half to heat an 80-gallon tank. They’re ideal for homes and businesses that only need hot water intermittently, for specific purposes.
Solar Water Heaters
Solar water heaters are a solid choice for property owners in Sunnyvale, with so many days of sunshine, year long. Using a complex system, sunlight is captured and converted to energy, which the water heater uses to heat the water. Despite its two main drawbacks; higher upfront costs and the need for a backup source, solar water heaters remain a popular choice, largely due to their low usage cost and the fact that they are better for the environment than alternatives.
Commercial Water Heaters
Payless Waters Heaters offers in-person consultations to help you to determine your commercial water heater needs for your business. Whether you have a hotel, restaurant, Laundromat, event venue, medical facility or something else, an ample supply of quality hot water is essential to your operations. Commercial water heaters are built to meet the demands of businesses. They have a larger capacity, and are available in high-efficiency models to ensure optimal production.
Traditional Water Heaters
You’re probably familiar with traditional water heaters, as these are the ones used for generations. They operate by heating a standing tank of water, maintaining the water at a set temperature for use whenever you need it, which is a nice benefit. With lower upfront costs for installation, these kinds of water heaters remain popular. However, they show their drawbacks when you compare them with more energy-efficient modern tankless water heaters.
