The choice depends on your family’s hot water usage, available space, and budget. Tank water heaters cost less upfront ($1,200-$2,500 installed) and work well for families who use hot water at multiple locations simultaneously.
Tankless water heaters cost more initially ($2,500-$4,500 installed) but provide unlimited hot water, last 20+ years, and can be 30-50% more energy efficient. They’re ideal for Rocklin homes with limited space or families wanting to reduce energy costs.
