Tank Water Heaters
Water heaters are an essential part of any modern home. If you try to imagine making it through a week, or even just a day, without hot water, you’ll start to understand how important this appliance is to your home life. Cooking, cleaning, and bathing are activities that would be next to impossible without running hot water. For most homes—probably including yours—the water heater that sees to your hot water needs is a storage tank water heater, i.e. a system that uses a hot water tank to store the water until it’s needed.
Although there are more options now for water heaters than ever before, tank water heaters remain popular. Baxter Comfort Solutions will help you with whatever tank water heater job you may need in Baxter, IA and the surrounding areas. Our technicians will get to you fast when you have repair issues, and they’ll also help you out when it’s time for a new water heater installation. Make us your first call for tank water heater services.
Why Use a Tank Water Heater?
Since there are other choices for water heaters today, such as tankless and heat pump models, is there any reason to stick with the standard storage tank water heater? Yes, although what works best changes from household to household. The best way to determine if you should commit to a new tank water heater is to consult with our professionals.
The most common reasons that people stick with tank water heaters is that they are less expensive to install than other systems and won’t require making any major changes to the rest of the plumbing. Although a tank water heater can run out of its hot water supply, this should occur rarely if the system was sized and installed professionally.
Electric and Gas Tank Water Heater Installations and Replacements
Installing a tank water heater requires extensive professional skill and training. It isn’t something that you want amateurs to do, and you shouldn’t attempt to do it on your own either! This is especially important for natural gas water heaters, which can present safety hazards if installed incorrectly. But even electric tank water heaters must have the touch of a professional for installation.
For starters, a water heater of any kind must be sized accurately so that it delivers the right volume of hot water without wasting energy. The work of removing an older water heater for a replacement is also a massive task, and you’ll be glad you brought on experienced technicians to handle the work! With us on the job, you can depend on having a great tank water heater that works right for years to come. We install the top brands, such as Ruud.

The Vital Role Modern Water Heaters Play in Newton
Prior to the invention of the water heater, you had to warm water in a pot on a fire or a stove. You’d then have to cart it to the tub, risking blisters and burns on the way. As the process was time consuming, families often opted to take turns bathing in the same water. In 1889, however, an inventor by the name of Edwin Ruud succeeded in making things a little easier. At first, water heaters were a convenience of well-to-do families, but that soon changed. We’ve come a long way to ensuring every household has access to hot water when and where it’s needed. The addition of tankless units also lets us do it in minimal space.
Today’s water heaters are convenient and intuitive. Once installed, they run almost entirely without human intervention. Nowadays, there are several designs available in the Newton area. And, when it comes to installing the system that’s right for you, it’s hard to beat the water heater experts at BCS.
