Domestic hot water heating can account for over 20% of an average household’s utility costs. On demand tankless water heaters are much more efficient simply because they do not suffer from the standing heat loss of a conventional water heater. Conventional water heaters with storage tanks can easily cost over $100 per year in standing heat losses.
If you are already using a relatively new conventional water heater with tank and are not financially able to purchase a new tankless water heater, then a hot water heater jacket is your best bet for reducing the standing heat loss of your existing water heater. A hot water heater jacket can reduce these standing losses by 40% or more, savings as much as $5.00 a month.
