Types of Water Heaters We Install
At Iceberg Home Services, our team has the knowledge and experience to repair, install, or replace any type or brand of water heating system, including:
Storage Water Heaters
- Conventional storage water heaters are one of the most affordable water heating options available.
- This type of water heater is easy to install and maintain.
- Storage water heaters have a long functional life span, as they don’t have fans or pumps to wear out over time.
Tankless Water Heaters
- Tankless water heaters offer an immediate, endless supply of hot water, whenever you need it.
- A tankless water heater is highly efficient, which saves money on utility bills.
- Tankless water heaters last almost twice as long as tank water heaters.
- Very little space is required to install a tankless water heater, as they have an exceptionally small footprint.
Gas Water Heaters
- If you have gas service to your home, gas water heaters are easy to install.
- A gas water heater is less expensive to operate than an electric water heater.
- Gas water heaters have a shorter recovery time than electric water heaters, which is good for households with heavy water usage.
Electric Water Heaters
- Electric water heaters are typically less expensive than other water heating systems.
- While gas lines are common in most areas, they’re not always available. Almost every home has electrical service.
- There’s a risk of gas leaks with gas appliances, but electric water heaters don’t require any extra safety precautions.
- Electric water heaters generally last longer and require less maintenance than their gas counterparts.
Hybrid Gas-Electric Water Heaters
- A hybrid water heater uses 60% less electricity than a conventional water heater by removing heat from the ambient air. They only use their electric motor when water usage is high.
- Due to their high efficiency, hybrid water heaters can help you save a significant amount on your utility bills, enough to offset their initial cost. Installing energy-efficient appliances may also qualify you for tax incentives.
- Hybrid water heaters also have low maintenance requirements.

How To Choose a Water Heater
As you consider what kind of water heater best suits your home and water usage needs, you should consider:
- Fuel cost & availability: Almost every home has access to electric power, but some homes do not have gas service available. If you have the choice between either fuel option, compare utility rates and installation costs to decide which type of water heater provides the best long-term value.
- Family size & water usage: Consider the size of your home, the number of people in your family, and your hot water usage habits when selecting a water heater. If scheduling requires that several people shower at once when getting ready in the morning, a gas or tankless water heater might be the best option to keep up with demand.
- Energy efficiency: A high-efficiency water heater can help reduce your energy usage and save money. Compare the energy-efficiency ratings of any water heaters you are considering.
- Operating costs: When choosing your water heater, compare the initial costs and the operating costs. Some models may be more expensive to purchase and install but may save money in the long run to offset their initial cost.

Water Heater FAQs
You can enhance the energy efficiency of your water heater by insulating your hot water pipes, setting the water heater thermostat to an optimal temperature (usually around 120 degrees Fahrenheit), and scheduling regular maintenance to keep it running efficiently.
It depends on the extent of the problem and the age of the water heater. In some cases, repairs can fix the issue, but if your unit is older or experiencing frequent problems, it might be more cost-effective to consider a replacement.
The size water heater needed depends on a few different factors, such as the number of people in the home. A smaller storage tank (50 to 60 gallons) is usually sufficient for one to three people. A medium storage tank of around 80 gallons usually will work for three to four people. Larger sizes are available for additional capacity. You can also contact us directly, and one of our licensed, professional plumber can assess your specific needs and then recommend a size.
Water leaks are perhaps the most common type of water heater issue you’ll face. All water heaters will eventually corrode the storage tank, which will lead to tiny cracks and then starts to leak.
