Types of Water Heaters
The primary function of a water tank is to store water. When the water is stored, it eventually heats up in the tank and is delivered through your spigots and faucets throughout the home. There are several types of tanks that can deliver this type of service:
- Traditional
- Solar
Traditional Systems
In a traditional water heater system, it utilizes an insulated tank in order to store the water. Fuel sources such as gas or electricity are used to maintain the contents of the tank at a constant temperature.
Solar Heating Systems
This type of system incorporates solar energy to warm up the water. The water is stored in strongly insulated tanks and delivered when you need it. These systems are great at lowering energy costs and helping to become less dependent on fuel sources.
Tankless Systems
These systems are very efficient thanks to technology. They do not use a tank as they are equipped with the ability to heat water quickly in Los Angeles. With a tankless system, you’ll experience the following benefits:
- More space

Electric vs. Gas
Along with the HVAC system(s) in the house, the water heater commonly comes in either electric or gas types.
Electric heats water more efficiently whereas gas water heater saves you more money over time and is faster . With tankless electric or gas water heaters, there is no down time for the water to heat up when it comes to taking a bath or doing dishes.
