Types of Water Heaters in Orlando Homes

You have lots of options for water heater installation in Orlando, FL. Learn about some of the most popular types of water heaters so you can choose the best one for your home.

Conventional Water Heaters

Conventional water heaters store hot water in a storage tank. Fresh water flows into the tank to replace what’s been used, which is then heated. If you use a lot of hot water, a conventional water heater might be unable to keep up with the consumption. That means you could end up taking tepid or cold showers.

Tankless Water Heaters

Instead of using a storage tank, tankless water heaters rapidly heat and deliver water on demand. Since they only heat water as needed, tankless water heaters consume much less energy than conventional ones. They’re also able to provide a consistent supply of hot water.

Solar Water Heaters

With well over 200 sunny days a year, the sun shines brightly in Orlando. You can make that sunshine work for you with a solar water heater. Solar water heaters use solar panels to heat the water and store it in a tank until it’s time to use it. Adding a backup fuel source can ensure that the solar water heater keeps up with your demand.

Hybrid Water Heaters

Orlando’s humid subtropical climate is ideal for hybrid water heaters. These systems use pumps to draw heat from the surroundings. The pump transfers the heat to a storage tank to heat the water. Since it doesn’t generate heat, hybrid water heaters consume less energy.
