What Our Customers Are Saying
Benefits of Electric Water Heaters
No Venting Required
Unlike gas water heaters, State's electric units do not necessitate venting for operation. This feature not only saves space in your home but also reduces initial installation costs.
Easy Installation
Electric water heaters are straightforward to install in any home, especially when replacing a similar model with matching electric power requirements. State Water Heaters recommends seeking assistance from a professional installer for a swift and accurate installation process.
Long Lasting
State’s electric water heaters are built to last with limited warranties that range in various lengths of time to help ensure that your home has hot water for years to come.
How it Works
State's electric tank water heaters utilize one or two electric heating elements to heat water. When a hot water fixture is opened, hot water is delivered from the unit through the home's hot water lines. Depending on the model, water is either maintained at a set temperature within a tank or rapidly heated on demand by a tankless unit to conserve energy.
Electric tank water heaters are equipped with essential components such as a thermostat, element, temperature and pressure relief valve, and a drain valve. These components work together to monitor hot water and ensure efficient, reliable, and safe operation.
Whole home and point-of-use tankless water heaters have 2 or 4 chambers and elements. Electric tankless water heaters contribute to energy savings by avoiding the need to continuously heat water stored in tanks, which often goes unused. Properly sized units provide a steady supply of hot water on demand. Additionally, tankless water heaters offer flexible installation options, fitting into spaces where tank water heaters may not, such as closets and bathrooms.
Still Have Questions?
Both electric and gas water heaters have their benefits. State has energy-efficient electric and gas water heaters available to fit your needs. In most cases, the energy that powers a water heater will come from the energy source that the home or building is already equipped with. If a home doesn’t have a gas line at all, then the homeowner is not likely to run a new gas line because of the expense associated with doing so. Alternatively, if a home is already configured with gas lines to provide energy to a water heater, then the likelihood of switching to electric is much less.
Electric water heaters have limited warranties of 6-10 years . It may need to be replaced if it's showing signs of corrosion, either on the appliance or in your water supply. Minerals and sediment can also build up, causing the electric water heater to make noise or operate erratically. An aging water heater can also be less efficient, delivering water that's cooler than the set temperature or taking longer to heat water, boosting your electric bill. Depending on the age of your appliance, you may want to repair it or invest in a new one.
Since electric water heaters don't burn fuel or generate exhaust fumes like gas water heaters, they don't need gas lines or ventilation, simplifying installation. Electric water heaters tend to be cheaper than gas water heaters of comparable sizes, potentially reducing your initial costs.
No. Electric water heaters draw their power from electricity. Since they don't depend on combustion to generate heat like a gas water heater, they don't create byproducts or require exterior ventilation.
State electric water heaters have limited warranties that range 6-10 years, although this can be affected by usage. Mineral deposits or buildup from hard water can cause increased wear, for example. To help your electric water heater last longer, flush, clean and inspect it regularly for issues.
