After speaking with a technician, you learn you need a new water heater. Newer technology means you can enjoy a more efficient Gilbert water heater replacement, but that also means you may have more options than you can handle. To narrow your options and purchase the right appliance, keep these factors in mind while shopping for a new replacement.

You can choose between tank and tankless water heaters. If you want to save money on operation, consider a tankless water heater. These water heaters cost more upfront, but they pay for themselves over time through reduced energy costs. Tankless water heaters also last longer than their traditional counterparts. If you must operate several hot water fixtures all at once, you could be better off with a tank water heater.
