Living Green? Think Tankless Water Heater


For the whole house (above) $169.00

We bought a home that needs repairs but has no mortgage!
This is our chance to "Go Green".
We started with a tankless water heater, and added a smaller
one for the shower. I was so impressed I thought I'd share.
If you have a large family, you can add a sink booster for around $50.

For the shower:Price: $32.99

about tankless water heaters:

Tankless water heaters are considered a “green” alternative to traditional water heaters. They can be up to 95% energy efficient, use up to 50% less energy, conserve water and produce less carbon dioxide than traditional water heaters. Some models are even made from 95% recyclable materials. Tankless water heaters also offer an endless supply of hot water and take up less space than tank-style heaters.

Heating water can account for 30% of a household's energy consumption, so switching to a tankless water heater is a great way to conserve energy and it is good for the environment.

I was able to purchase both of these for less than a traditional hot water would
have cost. My husband and son are in the basement installing them now.
