Short vs. tall water heater: which one fits?

"Short" and "tall" are not a registry classification, and this registry files no link between a model's height and its efficiency — here is the real, sourced height spread instead of that claim.


Not published: a relationship between tank height and efficiency (UEF)

No source this registry reads (DOE CCD, ENERGY STAR) publishes one — a shorter tank is not filed as more or less efficient than a taller one at the same rated volume.

None of the models on file in this scope carries a filed height yet; the selector below filters by the space you have.

Not published: models with a filed footprint in this scope

None of the models on file in this scope carries a filed height or footprint in the registries this site reads.

Check the water heater selector for today's full catalog.

Enter your own available height, width, depth and (for a heat pump model) ambient temperature on the water heater selector to check the full catalog against your own space, not just the models shown above.
