Not sure whether to install a high efficiency water heater or go to the next level with a tankless or solar water heater?

With all this talk about massive amounts of CO2 emissions, rising energy prices and global climate change, you have an opportunity to correct one of the least energy efficient areas of your home. Old or poorly performing water heaters can increase your monthly energy bills and emit ridiculous amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere.

If you are still on the fence with solar water heaters or just can not make the investment at this time, an option worth considering is the installation of a solar ready water heater. Solar ready water heaters are simply gas or electric powered units with integrated connections for a future solar panel installation. The costs to install these units are far less than a complete solar water heater installation and should you decide to add the solar panels at a later date, you have the freedom to do so. Solar ready water heaters are definitely a great option if you need a new water heater soon, but still are not sure about making the complete solar investment.
