    I’m sure most local/county recycling centers take electronics along with other recyclables (mine does). If not, retailers like Best Buy will take them at the customer service desk. Also, we have an electronic scrap bin at my place of employment, which is what I normally use. So many options!







  • Just installed one recently. Got $500 back in a rebate from the electric company and will get 30% back in taxes at the end of the year. These incentives alone bring the cost down to an equivalently sized traditional electric water heater. I haven’t had it running long enough to see what the average electric bill reduction will be; however my last bill (and first full one with the new heater) was my cheapest in the 5 years I’ve been here ($125 vs $150 from the same month last year). I don’t expect it will take long to fully pay for itself compared to the highly inefficient 20-year old model it replaced.
