Hybrid & Electric Water Heater Service in Falmouth
Modern Water Heaters for the Modern Home
Newer water heaters are specifically designed to help you save on energy resources while still efficiently heating your water. Manufacturers have created both electric and hybrid water heaters to serve this purpose. An electric water heater only uses electricity to heat your water, while a hybrid model takes advantage of airborne heat to provide you with warm showers.
Our technicians at Master Tech Plumbing Inc. install and repair all hybrid and electric water heaters in Falmouth and the surrounding areas. Get your hot water back on by contacting us at (508) 388-6007 today.
The Benefits of a Hybrid Water Heater
The hybrid water heater (also referred to as a heat pump water heater) entered the market within the last 10 years. The hybrid design intends to help you save on water heating costs by using the heat that already exists in the air, rather than continually having to generate its own heat.
This process sounds very futuristic, but it's actually an impressively practical technology. A refrigerator cools food by moving hot air out of its box. A hybrid water heater heats water by pumping hot air into a tank filled with water.
These heaters are "hybrid" because they are also equipped to heat water through a more traditional electric source if your household suddenly needs a lot of hot water at once. Hybrid systems are ideal for small homes -apartments and townhouses especially.
When choosing a water heater, it may be helpful to consider the fact that hybrid models require:
- A good-sized space for storage - ideally a closet inside the home with at least 100 square feet
- A more substantial up-front investment than traditional heaters
Though some technicians will advise against using a hybrid heater during the cold winter months of New England, we have successfully installed many hybrid heaters throughout Cape Cod and beyond. We help you select the right hybrid model to serve the needs of your household.
