The Different Types of Water Heaters
Conventional water heaters–which have tanks–are the most common choice for people shopping for water heaters. However, you can save money and decrease your impact on the planet by installing water-saving devices and tankless or hybrid water water heaters.
Here’s a more in-depth rundown of the different types of water heaters you could get installed in your home or business.
Conventional Water Heaters
Gas or electric water heater installations by professional contractors prevent burns and improper installation that could be dangerous. We install leading water heater manufacturer brands. Click on each brand to learn more:

Tankless Water Heaters and Water Heater Devices
Tankless water heaters save homeowners money because rather than having a large supply of water ready all the time, a tankless water heater will only heat the water as it is needed. That can add up to a 40% savings in energy bills.
Tankless water heaters also take up much less space and are expected to have a life two times longer than traditional tank heaters. Since they use less energy, tankless water heaters are Energy Star approved by the EPA.
Hybrid Water Heaters
Hybrid water heaters are very similar to a traditional tank water heater but with a small heat pump on top. The water heater uses a fan to draw in air from the surrounding area, and an evaporator coil absorbs heat from the air through the refrigerant. As the refrigerant moves through the compressor, it’s heated up even more. Hybrid water heaters use less energy than traditional tanks and can save up to 50% on energy costs.
Our Recommendation – Go Tankless
Robinson’s Plumbing highly recommends tankless water heaters for all the reasons listed above. We proudly sell, install, and service Rinnai or Navien tankless water heater bands and would be more than happy to install yours for you.

Water Heater Installation FAQs
Water heater installations are a common service that we provide. We often hear several frequently asked questions, such as:
Q: What kind of water heater do I need?
A: If upfront costs are a huge concern, your best bet might be a tank water heater. However, a tankless or hybrid model will offer more significant savings in the long run. You also need to consider the fuel source. For example, tank heaters can run on electricity, oil, solar power, propane, or natural gas. Tankless models only come in electricity and natural gas. A tankless water heater might be a better option if your home has limited space.
Q: What size water heater do I need?
A: There are several different sizes of water heaters. For example, a 23-36 gallon tank water heater for one or two residents should suffice. However, if you have five or more people in your household, consider getting a 56-gallon or higher water heater.
Q: How can I tell if it’s time to replace my water heater?
A: The average life expectancy of a standard water heater is anywhere from 10-15 years. However, some tankless models can last upwards of 20 years or more. The quality of your water can also affect its lifespan. If your water takes longer to get hot or you hear rumbling noises and see rust-colored water, it might indicate it’s time to replace your water heater.
