 Innovative Hybrid The GeoSpring® Hybrid Water Heater by GE® is an innovative new product which can reduce water heater operating cost up to 62% and save $320 per year. This new system was the first ENERGY STAR® rated hybrid and operates by extracting heat from the air around the hot water tank and preheating the water, which greatly reduces the amount of energy needed to circulate hot water. GE® designed the tank to fit in the footprint of their old 50-gallon heater, so it can easily fit in small spaces. Retail price: $1,599 |

 Solor Hot Water Kingspan® manufactures complete solar hot water packages, but we have spotlighted their stainless steel Kingspan Tribune storage tank because of its extraordinary durability and performance. The tank comes with a 20-year warranty, longer than most metal-lined tanks and weighs about half as much as traditional steel-lined heaters. It's available in 60, 80 and 119 gallon tanks. |
 Small & Powerful Skye® has an interesting electric on-demand tankless hot water heater unit that's small enough to fit under a kitchen sink. The Paradigm® applies a technology they call HeatSurround,® which heats water by passing it through the heating element rather than immersing the element in the water. In other words, it can supply endless hot water for a shower or dishwasher or washing machine. Retail price: $1,100 |
