19 Energy hogs - Water heaters

Living Off the Grid in the City Radio Show. Energy Hogs -Water heaters. Water heating is very convenient in many areas of the US. It brings comfort and pleasure to bathing and washing, especially in cold seasons. But, electric water heating is a high energy consumer and brings high cost to most people. If you want to live off the grid or reduce your electric energy consumption; getting rid of your electric water heater is a must. You may alternatively reduce the size of your water heater, and decrease its set temperature to about 100 degrees F or 38 degrees C. The best option for water heater is to go with a solar one, but if that is not an option for your area then a tankless LPG water heater is the most efficient.
