Which type of hot water heater is best for you home?

Direct-Fired Water Heaters

A direct-fired water heater can be heated by propane or natural gas and has its own burner. These types of water heaters are traditionally the most energy-efficient and offer the best value for larger families.

Indirect-Fired Water Heaters

If you heat your home with a boiler, you have the option to use an indirect water heater that utilizes existing energy in your boiler to heat water in an external tank to minimize fuel use, save energy and maximize hot water output.

On-Demand Water Heaters

On-demand water heaters heat water on the spot and are excellent for 1-2 person homes as there is no need for the water to be stored. A tankless water heater can be heated by propane or natural gas.
