SAN JOSE — Host, Sarah Rutan: When choosing a water heater, you&#8217;ll need to decide whether to install a conventional or tankless water model. Today we’re in San Jose with Diamond Certified Expert Contributor, Frans Cartwright of Better Water Heaters to discuss some importance considerations.
Diamond Certified Expert Contributor, Frans Cartwright: You have two options when choosing a water heater for your home; conventional water heater or tankless water heater. Let&#8217;s talk about both.
The conventional water heater will be installed in about two hours, will produce 75 gallons per hour of hot water, and will do so for about $277 a year in gas costs. It&#8217;s important to flush this water heater once a year as it will last longer if you do so.
Over here we have one of the newest tankless models out right now. This unit will be installed in about three hours. It has plumbing connections on the top just like your current water heater. It has a half-inch gas connection at the bottom so we don&#8217;t need to run a new gas line for this unit. And surprisingly enough, this has a two-inch plastic flexible vent right here. This will be inserted in your current metal vent up to the roof stack and will make this unit installed quite easily. This will produce about 300 gallons per hour and will do so for about $177 a year.
