Your water heater runs 24/7 keeping water hot whether you need it or not. Learn the exact upgrades and settings that slash your bill in days, not years.
Deploy the Hot Water Savings KitA standard tank heater keeps 40-80 gallons of water hot every hour of every day. That costs $30-$70/month even when nobody is home. It's like running a space heater in your basement 24/7.
After 3 years, mineral buildup insulates your tank bottom, forcing the burner to run 20-30% longer. A $10 annual flush recovers $50-$80/year in efficiency.
Uninsulated hot water pipes lose 2-5°F per 10 feet of run. That means your shower waits 30+ seconds for hot water, wasting 5-10 gallons per use.
Turning your heater off when you leave actually uses more energy. The solution isn't on/off — it's smart scheduling or upgrading to heat pump technology.
