Q: What adds more value: a heat pump or gas water heater?

• <div>While heat pump water heaters are more expensive than gas-powered water heaters, the ROI is higher for heat pump units. Not only are heat pump water heaters more energy efficient, meaning immediate savings on your energy bill, but they also last longer than traditional gas versions, meaning you won't have to buy them as often.</div>

Q: Is it hard to install your own water heater?

• <div>It is very difficult and dangerous to install your own water heater, so we strongly recommend against tackling this as a DIY project. Not only will you need to wire your water heater, but you&rsquo;ll also need to connect plumbing to the intake and outlet. Sweating copper pipes and connecting wiring properly are skills most DIYers don&rsquo;t have, and even if you do feel confident you can do it, working with water and electricity always leaves the potential for electrocution. Hiring a local water heater installer is well worth the investment.</div>

Q: What are the pros and cons of electric water heaters?

• <div>Every type of water heater has its advantages and disadvantages. Understanding those can help you decide the best type for your situation and budget. Pros<ul><li>Safer than gas or propane</li><li>Doesn&rsquo;t require extensive venting systems</li><li>Lower upfront costs</li><li>Simpler to operate</li><li>No pilot light</li><li>Easier installation</li><li>More efficient heating than gas models</li><li>Available as point-of-use (POU) and whole-house units</li></ul>Cons<ul><li>Slower to heat water</li><li>Longer recovery time</li><li>Possibly higher operating costs</li><li>Doesn&rsquo;t work during a power outage</li><li>Costs can increase without a 240-volt connection</li></ul></div>

Q: How much do different types of water heaters cost?

• <div>It&rsquo;s important to find the type of water heater that fits your needs and budget. Depending on the type of water heater, size, brand, and the type of energy you use to heat the water, costs range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand. Some of the most common types of water heaters include:<ul><li>Electric: $600&ndash;3,500</li><li>Gas: $700&ndash;$2,700</li><li>Propane: $700&ndash;$2,500</li><li>High efficiency: $1,500&ndash;$3,000</li><li>Indirect: $1,200&ndash;$3,500</li><li>Hybrid heat pump: $1,200&ndash;$3,500</li></ul></div>

Q: Can you vent a water heater outside the house?

• <div>Typically, only a high-efficiency water heater with an inducer fan can be vented outside the house. Otherwise, your water heater needs to be installed on the inside and vented through the roof. However, certain areas may allow a standard-efficiency water heater to be vented outside. Check your local building codes to be sure.</div>
