​Here are a few things to think about when selecting a new gas hot water unit for your commercial business or residential property.

Pros
  • Up front purchase costs are usually lower than other units depending on the star rating (energy consumption)
  • Lower installation costs (may not have to upgrade gas line)
  • Delivers hot water immediately
  • 6 star energy efficient models available
  • ​Delivery of controlled hot water at set temperatures, may not require as many service valves.
Cons
  • Tank size takes up space
  • Heat loss from tank whether water is being used or not, (meaning temperature loss will cause thermostat to sense temperature drop in tank, which causes burners to ignite to reheat water in tank)
  • Not as energy efficient as a gas boosted solar or instantaneous hot water unit
