Highlights

Newer heaters have relatively high insulation, so to see if an Insulation Blanket is right for you, just put your hand on the outside of the heater. If it feels warm, then you can save money by wrapping it.

The water in the tank is heated up to 140 Degrees, and if it is in the basement or garage, the surrounding temperature in the winter is probably around 60 Degrees. This 80 Degree difference creates heat loss, and the blanket can save you 10% or more depending on the quality of your tank. Saving $8.35 over each month of the winter.

Water heating can account for roughly 19 percent of a home energy bill. The majority of U.S. houses have gas water heaters, but almost 40 percent use doubly expensive electric systems. Make your water heating 'system' more efficient by not only wrapping the tank with an insulating jacket, but also insulating hot water pipes, and consider installing timer controls that switch off the heater when you’re at work or sleeping. Turn the heater off when you’re on vacation. You can also add anti-convection valves and loops, and turn the temperature down from 140 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit or less.

The ROI Calculation is based on the 'Blanket' with other measures adding to the savings.

 

Basically, if your tank is warm to the touch
then you could benefit from adding a Hot
Water Heater ‘Blanket’.
