PETE’S PLUMBING INC. STAYS ON THE LEADING EDGE OF PLUMBING TECHNOLOGY

Hybrid Gas and Electric Water Heaters and Tankless Units Make Going Green High-Tech

Pete’s Plumbing Inc., a family-owned and operated full-service residential and commercial plumbing company that serves Alpharetta, Georgia and nearby areas, announced today they are now offering a selection of hybrid gas and electric water heaters as well as tankless units.

Tankless water heaters, also known as instantaneous, continuous flow or on demand water heaters, provide water only when it is needed. Pete’s Plumbing sells and installs a wide selection of tankless water heaters including brand names such as Rinnai, Noritz, Bosch, Takagi and more. Tankless water heaters only heat water when a faucet or appliance is in use instead of constantly heating water the way traditional gas or electric water heaters do and, as a result, use much less energy.

Pete’s Plumbing also offers hybrid water heaters. Hybrid water heaters combine the best technology of both the tankless heaters and traditional water heaters by being extremely energy efficient while still providing the same amount of hot water as traditional water heaters. Additionally, Pete’s Plumbing has a variety of gas and electric water heaters. Tax credits are available from qualifying models. For more information, please visit www.EnergyStar.Gov/TaxCredits.

“When choosing a water heater, it is important the unit can handle the number of floors and square footage in your home or business,” Julie Lippitt, President of Pete’s Plumbing, explained. “It is also extremely important to have your water heater professionally installed. If a unit isn’t properly installed, problems, such as failed pipe joints or improper venting, can cause serious trouble later on. Our highly skilled professionals can not only help you select the water heater that’s right for you, but we can ensure that unit is expertly installed.” 

Lippitt continued, “With the current tax credits as well as the savings in energy costs tankless and hybrid water heaters provide, now is the time to upgrade. An investment in a new water heater now will quickly pay off in the form of significantly lower energy bills. Because tankless and hybrid water heaters use less energy, they tread more lightly on the environment. Even traditional gas and electric water heaters now have Energy Star ratings, so there is no reason not to replace your old water heater with a new, energy efficient model.”
