Most new standard tanks come with a 6 to 10-year manufacturer warranty on the tank and parts. Tankless systems often feature up to a 12-year warranty on the heat exchanger. We also back our installations with a labor guarantee.
You can lower your energy bill by turning the thermostat down to 120 degrees, insulating the hot water pipes extending from the unit, and having the tank flushed annually to ensure optimal heat transfer.
