    Whether you're looking to reduce your energy bill or your existing hot water heater needs replacing, Ace has you covered with a selection of Reliance hot water heaters. Learn more about the Reliance hot water heaters we carry and how to choose the best one for your home.

    Why Choose Reliance Water Heaters?

    A Reliance hot water tank is synonymous with quality and reliability. In operation since 1981, Reliance produces some of the most environmentally friendly water heaters in the industry. Manufacturing high-quality gas and electric water heaters for both residential and light commercial applications, Reliance hot water heaters may feature:

    • Self-cleaning capabilities that use water circulation to filter out sediment, reducing the frequency in which the system needs to be flushed.
    • Technology that prevents accidental ignition of flammable substances.
    • Heating elements designed to reduce lime and sediment build-up.
    • Low NOx or Ultra-Low NOx ratings.
    • Energy Star and LEED certifications.

    The most common type of Reliance water heater is a conventional storage water heater. Available in both electric and natural gas models, these units heat and store water that can be used in an instant, helping to ensure you always have hot water when you need it. 

    How to Choose a New Reliance Water Heater

    Reliance hot water heaters come in multiple models and sizes. If you need help finding the best top-rated product for your home, follow the steps outlined below.

    Identify the Fuel Source

    The faster you identify your existing fuel source, the easier it will be to choose a Reliance water heater to fit your needs. Here are the basic differences between electric and gas fuel types:

    • Reliance Electric Water Heaters:Usually less expensive than other types, Reliance electric water heaters rely on one or two heating elements to heat water.
    • Reliance Gas Water Heaters: Usually more expensive and energy-efficient than electric models, Reliance gas water heaters use a burner to heat water and require circulating air around the unit. 

    Determine Capacity Needs

    To provide your household with enough hot water and to maximize efficiency, you'll need a properly sized Reliance water heater. Use these minimum gallon capacity recommendations for electric and gas water heaters to pick an appropriate size for your household:

    Reliance Electric Water Heaters:

    • Household of 1 to 2: 30 gallons
    • Household of 2 to 3: 40 gallons
    • Household of 3 to 4: 50 gallons
    • Household of 5 or more: 80 gallons

    Reliance Gas Water Heaters:

    • Household of 1 to 2: 30 gallons
    • Household of 2 to 3: 40 gallons
    • Household of 3 to 4: 40 gallons
    • Household of 5 or more: 50 Gallons

    Measure Your Space

    If you can't fit a standard-sized Reliance water heater in your space, there are alternatives that provide the same level of performance. Shorter units may hold the same amount of water as their counterparts while fitting into confined spaces, such as underneath cabinets and inside crawlspaces. What’s more, Ace also carries mobile home, tankless and point-of-use models, to help meet your needs whatever the situation.
