Our team of experienced plumbers is ready to provide installation services for you. Give Drainworks a call today!
Tankless Water Heaters
Tankless water heaters, also known as on-demand or instant water heaters, are different from traditional storage tank water heaters. They heat water only when it’s needed, as opposed to constantly keeping a large tank of water hot, and they can provide a continuous supply of hot water, whereas traditional tank heaters may run out if several fixtures are in use at the same time.
Electric and Gas Water Heaters
An electric water heater is one of the more traditional models most see in modern homes. They are easy to install, and they can be used in just about any home. They also work well with solar power systems.
Gas water heaters are an excellent choice for homeowners who want to save money on their utility bills. They also run on natural gas, making them environmentally friendly and easy to maintain.
Electric Hybrid Water Heaters
Electric hybrid water heaters, also known as hybrid heat pump water heaters, are a newer type of water heater that combines the functionality of a traditional electric water heater with the energy efficiency of a heat pump.

Gas Water Heaters
Gas water heaters use natural gas as a fuel source to heat water in a storage tank. They are commonly used in homes and businesses because they are able to heat water quickly and efficiently. Gas water heaters are available in a variety of sizes and styles, including traditional storage tank models, tankless models, and heat pump models. One of the main advantages of gas water heaters is that they are able to provide a constant supply of hot water, even when multiple fixtures are in use at the same time. This makes them a good choice for larger households or for homes with high hot water demands.
Gas water heaters are generally more energy-efficient than electric water heaters, and can be a more cost-effective option in areas where natural gas is readily available and less expensive than electricity. They typically have a shorter payback period in terms of energy savings, making them more cost-effective in the long run. However, gas water heaters require a venting system in order to operate safely and efficiently, and also need regular maintenance and inspection to ensure the safe operation and avoid the potential hazards associated with combustion.

Gas Tankless Water Heaters
Gas-powered tankless water heaters are unique in a few ways when compared to electric tankless water heaters:
- They typically have a higher flow rate, which means they can provide hot water to multiple fixtures at the same time.
- They can be a more cost-effective option in areas where natural gas is readily available and less expensive than electricity.
- They require a venting system in order to operate safely and efficiently, unlike electric tankless water heaters which do not require venting.
- Gas models may be more powerful,and provide more hot water. It can provide more hot water than an electric tankless water heater with the same flow rate.
- They typically have a shorter payback period in terms of energy savings, making them more cost-effective in the long run.
- They can be a more efficient choice for larger households or for homes with high hot water demands.
Electric Water Heaters
Electric water heaters have several advantages over gas-powered water heaters:
- They are generally easier to install, as they don’t require a venting system.
- They are typically safer, as there is no risk of carbon monoxide poisoning or other hazards associated with combustion.
- They are a good option for homes without access to a natural gas line or where electricity is the cheaper fuel source
- They are also a good choice for homes in areas with strict building codes or regulations that restrict the use of gas-powered appliances.
- They are low-maintenance and are relatively quiet during operation.
- They also come in a variety of sizes and styles, so you can choose the best option for your home and hot water needs.
Electric Tankless Water Heaters
Tankless water heaters, also known as on-demand or instant water heaters, are different from traditional storage tank water heaters in several ways:
- They heat water only when it’s needed, as opposed to constantly keeping a large tank of water hot.
- They can provide a continuous supply of hot water, whereas traditional tank heaters may run out if several fixtures are in use at the same time.
- They are more energy efficient, as they only use energy when hot water is needed, rather than constantly using energy to keep a tank of water hot.
- They tend to have a longer lifespan.
- They take up less space as they have no tank and are smaller in size.
- They can be useful in places where space is limited.
Electric Hybrid Water Heaters
Electric hybrid water heaters, also known as hybrid heat pump water heaters, are a newer type of water heater that combines the functionality of a traditional electric water heater with the energy efficiency of a heat pump. The heat pump, which is located on top of the water tank, uses heat from the surrounding air to warm the water, instead of relying solely on electric resistance heating.
This allows the hybrid water heater to operate more efficiently than a traditional electric water heater, as it can extract heat from the air instead of generating it. As a result, hybrid water heaters have a significantly higher energy efficiency rating, which can lead to significant savings on energy bills over time. They also have the ability to reduce the carbon footprint and decrease the usage of fossil fuels. Hybrid water heaters also come with a function to change to the electric resistance heating in case the temperature drop down, this could be in cases of extremely cold weather or a high hot water demand. Overall, electric hybrid water heaters are a great choice for homeowners who want to save money on energy costs and be more environmentally friendly. Drainworks Plumbing offers installation services for electric hybrid water heaters.
Point of Use
A point-of-use (POU) water heater is a small, tank-type water heater that is installed close to the point of use, such as a sink or shower, to provide hot water directly to that specific location. POU water heaters are typically smaller in size than traditional storage tank water heaters and are designed to heat water as it is used, rather than constantly maintaining a large volume of hot water in a storage tank.
One of the main advantages of POU water heaters is that they are able to provide hot water quickly and efficiently to specific locations in the home, without the need to waste energy by heating a large volume of water in a storage tank. This can lead to energy savings and lower utility bills.
Another advantage is that they can be a good option for homes with limited space, as they are smaller in size and don’t require a large storage tank. They are also useful in situations where the hot water demand is very limited.
POU water heaters can be electric or gas-powered, and they may be wall-mounted or under-sink units. They can be useful to improve hot water delivery in remote areas of the house or in applications such as, a sink in a garage, or for a wet bar. They are often used as a supplement to a central water heater to improve the hot water delivery or to be used as a primary water heater in small setups or small apartments where space is limited.
