Gas and oil water heaters
When it comes to water-heater selection, two considerations are key: a unit’s fuel type and first-hour rate (FHR). Consider both, but focus most on a unit’s FHR – the number of gallons of hot water that can be produced in the first hour – to avoid the disappointment of running out of hot water.
