I replaced mine 2 years ago with a top of the line electric Whirlpool from
Lowe's. Since I pay about 14 cents per kilowatt hour I have been monitoring
my electricity usage for 15 plus years. I paid about $325 for the water
heater and know for certain that it has paid for itself in energy savings
already.
