Water heaters form an essential electrical item in all households. They also account for the second most consumers of energy in homes. According to U.S. Energy Department, they constitute roughly 20 per cent of energy expenses.  On an average energy consumption in households is distributed at 37 per cent to hot water in showers, 26 per cent to washing machines, 14 per cent to dishwashers and the remaining two other uses like wash basins and bath tubs. A nuclear family comprising of four members utilizes up to 700 gallon of water in a week if they each shower for five minutes a day. Imagine the quantity of energy consumption over the use of water heaters for these baths.  

So how can one conserve energy? An alternate available to the conservative water heaters is the propane water heater. These heaters help cut down costs by two-thirds vis-à-vis electric heaters. They are able to heat water twice as fast as electric water heaters. Capacity wise a 50-gallon water heater is able to yield hot water as much as a 67 to 81 gallon electric water heater. Propane water heaters can bring down energy costs by 30%. 

Propane as a gas has the ability to heat washing machines, showers and dishwashers all at one time, at a faster pace taking a shorter duration. Propane as a fuel can be used to heat multiple gadgets at the same time leading to energy conservation. It is a known fact that one fifth of the cost towards heating water gets wasted in an attempt to maintain the right temperature of the water when not in use. Propane water heaters can cut down this cost if one installs a tank less system on which water can be heated instantly and when required. This not only cuts cost through instant heating of water but also is able to produce 3 times as much heated water than a regular water heater. When compared it takes about an hour for a regular water heater in order to heat 40 to 50 gallons of water and with a 50-gallon propane heater the same quantity of water can be heated in less than half the duration.  

Therefore, what are you waiting for, simply pick up the phone and place an order for a 50-gallon propane water heater for your home and watch your electricity bills get less heated.
