The Way You Buy Water Heaters is About to Change…Permanently.

Boden Gives You 3 Great Reasons to Replace Your Water Heater Now!

As of April 16, 2015, all gas and electric storage tank water heaters under 55 gallons will be more energy efficient….along with taller and wider.

As of that same date, gas and electric storage tank water heaters over 55 gallons, as you now know them, will no longer be manufactured in the US. They are being replaced by gas condensing and electric hybrid heat pump water heaters, in that ordder.

These are the primary changes mandated by a federal government program called NAECA, which is short for National Appliance Energy Conservation Act. So yes, all household appliances are in the process of becoming impacted, and the latest to be affected are household water heaters.

What the NAECA Regulations Mean to You

The new higher efficiency replacement water haters will be up to 20% more energy efficient, which is the whole point of the NAECA program.

But replacement systems are also going to cost up to double what you’re accustomed to paying for a system with the same size storage tank. Plus, if space is an issue in your home, you may be forced to buy a replacement system with a smaller storage tank than you have now…if, that is, you wait to buy your next water heater after current conventional models are no longer available.
