Gas Heaters Provide More Hot Water, AGA Says |
|
||
|
(HIT)-Natural gas water heaters provide more hot
water faster and less expensively than electric water heaters, according to
the American Gas Association (AGA). When purchasing a new hot water heater, make your decision based on the price tag of the appliance and its estimated operating costs. AGA says a natural gas water heater can operate for about half the cost of an electric water heater, making the gas water heater a considerably better buy over the appliance’s lifetime, even though the gas unit may initially appear to be more expensive. Natural gas water heaters come in a wide range of sizes and features so you can easily select one that matches your family’s needs. Look at the federally-required yellow Energy Guide label on the water heater to determine the unit’s estimated annual cost, as well as the amount of maximum amount of hot water that it can supply in a one-hour period. |
