Hi Lisa... great information. I don't think I see a water heater insulated more than maybe in 1% of the houses I show.
Lisa Von Domek Great information for everyone here
And it is an easy-to-do money saver Nina Hollander
Thank you Hannah Williams a fairly easy DIY project that saves money!
I saw so many water heaters in attics in Texas. Often wondered why. This is a great and easy tip.
Lisa I do not think most homeowners realize how expensive it is to heat hot water. If they did more of them would be looking for ideas like this to cut down on those costs.
Frees up closet space inside the home Jeffrey DiMuria 321.223.6253 Waves Realty and with our hot summers...no water heat loss, the attic is well over 100 degrees!
Morning Lisa.
I had to go check the R value on our heater. All is good, great video, thanks
A tip that will find it's way to our newsletter...I feel a bookmark coming on !
Excellent tip, Lisa. One of the biggest energy users in most homes is the water heater.
