Answer:
"A residential water heater contributes to as much as 30 percent of a household's energy cost - second only to the expense of a home's heating and cooling system. Selecting the right water heater - one that is efficient and the right capacity - can dramatically impact your monthly energy bill.
Other ways to lower your energy bill include:
- Always wash full loads of laundry, using cold water whenever possible.
- Always run full loads in the dishwasher.
- All water heaters carry standard Energy Guide labels. Below is an example on an image of energy label provided by the government."
