The tool is designed to give users an initial estimate of the potential costs and comparison of different types of water heating systems. Actual savings will be determined by the specific system, features of the specific home, residents' energy use, and other variables.
Cost savings assumptions produced by this tool are highly sensitive to assumed energy price inputs.
We do not guarantee that the savings projected by the tool will be achieved by a specific water heating system installation.
Users should not rely on this tool alone when making purchase decisions.
This calculator is designed to be informational and educational only, and does not constitute technical advice. This model is provided as an initial estimation of potential costs. The results presented by this calculator are hypothetical and may not reflect the actual costs of your own specific situation, which may vary due to a variety of inputs such as water heater size, number of household members, climate zone, and incentives.
