These devices add to the size of a hybrid water heater, making them weigh more than most other water heaters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>50-gallon hybrid water heaters can range from 200-300 pounds, while the electric and gas water heaters&rsquo; weights range only from 100 to 250 pounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tank vs Tankless<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the heating appliance and other mechanical devices that allow the water heater to do its job contribute to its weight, the tank of a water heater is what accounts for lots of the weight of the product. This is because a tank must be large and robust enough to hold up to 100 gallons of water.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That being said, the <strong>water heater becomes much lighter when the large storage tank is eliminated from the equation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A tankless water heater can be as light as 15 pounds and only gets to about 100 pounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">\n    <a data-amazonimages=\"\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Rheem 11kW 240V Tankless Electric Water Heater\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B01N35V1HH?tag=hvacbuzz-20\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41EYCGQ+tkL._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Rheem 11kW 240V Tankless Electric Water Heater\" title=\"Rheem 11kW 240V Tankless Electric Water Heater\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41EYCGQ+tkL._SL500_.jpg\" alt=\"Rheem 11kW 240V Tankless Electric Water Heater\" title=\"Rheem 11kW 240V Tankless Electric Water Heater\" data-mvt-skip=\"src\" loading=\"lazy\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/a>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">      <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But how does a tankless water heater work without lots of storage?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of keeping a large supply of heated water, tankless water heaters heat water as it is needed.&nbsp;Because only enough water to supply the demand is heated, lots of energy savings can be experienced.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tank Style<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Tanks can influence the weight of the water heater in more ways than one. The style of the tank, or whether it is <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/glass-lined-water-heater-vs-stainless-steel\/\">glass-lined vs. stainless steel lined<\/a>, can impact the weight of the entire water heater.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Glass-lined tanks do not only consist of glass; the majority of the tank is made of steel. The glass is instead a layer on top of the steel interior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the glass lining is an addition rather than a substitution, a <strong>tank that is glass-lined will be heavier than its stainless steel counterpart<\/strong> (when the same size of tank is being compared).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, a glass-lined tank is basically a stainless steel tank with an added glass layer, which contributes to a higher weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The function of a glass-lined water heater tank is to shield the sensitive steel (not stainless steel for these water heaters) from corrosive materials in the water. Stainless steel is less corrosive, so it does not need this added protection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tank Size<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With water heater tank sizes ranging from 30 to 100 gallons typically, the differences in volume can dramatically change the weight of the water heater.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned before, the <strong>larger the capacity of the water heater, the heavier it will be<\/strong> since the tank will have to be larger to fit more water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although we have only mentioned empty weight before (the weight of the water heater without water), water can also add a lot of weight to a water heater as more and more gallons are stored.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Water Heater Weight Tables<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The tables below have data pulled from several different brands, models, sizes, and types of water heaters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I gathered as much data as I could for each size and averaged it out to find the empty weight of the water heater.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the full weight, I added the weight of the water to the empty weight.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Glass-Lined Water

In these cases, you will need a water heater larger than 50 gallons or more than one small water heater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although cost is definitely a factor, there are many other factors that can make large or multiple water heaters troublesome or even dangerous.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Additional Weight on Ceilings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As tank sizes grow to 80 gallons and above, it is likely that they can get up to half a ton when they are full of water.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is another reason why putting your water heater in the basement is ideal.&nbsp;With a basement, you don&rsquo;t have to worry about empty space beneath the water heater. Instead, there is solid ground beneath it to support this weight.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/water-heaters-above-ceilings\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"7419\">water heater in the ceiling<\/a> instead of solid ground can be a safety concern since the ceiling can crack and even break with too much weight on it. A water heater falling through a ceiling can cause terrible damage to the heater as well as to objects and people below it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This can be prevented with adequate reinforcement and prioritizing the placement of the water heater in a basement or the ground floor if there is no basement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ease of Installation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The heavier the object, the more difficult it will be to install it.&nbsp;This is especially true for water heaters because of their large size and weight.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although basements are ideal for space and the security of water heaters, getting a water heater down the stairs can be difficult.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are more conservative with your water heater size, you can avoid installation pains (not to mention replacements, which involve carrying one unit upstairs and another one downstairs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Energy Costs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As well as the outright cost of a larger water heater, the energy costs would also be terrible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A larger volume of water in the tank means that more energy must be used to heat the water as it is being replaced and keep it warm.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Woman-adjusting-the-temperature-of-the-water-heater.jpg\" alt=\"Woman adjusting the temperature of the water heater\" class=\"wp-image-23576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Woman-adjusting-the-temperature-of-the-water-heater.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Woman-adjusting-the-temperature-of-the-water-heater-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Woman-adjusting-the-temperature-of-the-water-heater-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Woman-adjusting-the-temperature-of-the-water-heater-735x536.jpg 735w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Woman-adjusting-the-temperature-of-the-water-heater-335x244.jpg 335w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Woman-adjusting-the-temperature-of-the-water-heater-347x253.jpg 347w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Woman-adjusting-the-temperature-of-the-water-heater-520x379.jpg 520w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Woman-adjusting-the-temperature-of-the-water-heater-640x467.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Woman-adjusting-the-temperature-of-the-water-heater-960x700.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw -
