Reliant Plumbing Launches New Home Budgeting Tool to Help Texans Calculate Tankless Water Heater Savings

AUSTIN, TX - December 2025 - Reliant Plumbing, a leading plumbing service provider in Central Texas, today announced the release of its new Tankless Water Heater Savings Calculator, a free interactive budgeting tool designed to help homeowners make smarter, data-driven decisions about upgrading their water heating systems.

As energy costs continue to rise and homeowners look for more sustainable, cost-saving upgrades, Reliant Plumbing recognized a gap in the market: homeowners rarely have access to clear, ZIP-specific insights about their actual utility usage and potential long-term savings. The new calculator solves this problem by instantly analyzing local water temperatures, area utility rates, and household usage patterns to estimate real savings and payback periods for installing a tankless system.

A Smarter Way for Homeowners to Budget
With just five simple questions, starting with the homeowner's ZIP code, the tool generates personalized results in under 60 seconds. No email is required, the tool is completely free, and results appear instantly.

The calculator helps homeowners understand their Estimated annual utility savings, an expected payback period. It also provides insights into projected long-term cost reductions, environmental benefits and energy efficiency gains, and local rebate opportunities from Texas utility providers.

"Water heaters are the second-largest energy consumer in most households," said Max Hicks, Owner of Reliant Plumbing. "We built this tool to empower homeowners with real numbers, take out the guesswork of budgeting. With this they can confidently decide if a tankless upgrade is actually a good investment for their home."

Backed by Reliable Data from Trusted Sources
To ensure accuracy, the calculator draws from a wide range of respected data sets, including, U.S. Department of Energy water heater efficiency and lifespan data, USGS groundwater temperature maps, HomeAdvisor / Angi residential installation cost ranges, Local Texas utility companies (Austin Energy, CPS Energy, Texas Gas Service, Atmos, CenterPoint) for current gas and electric rate schedules, DSIRE, Austin Energy, CPS Energy, and Texas Gas Service for rebate program information, NAR & Zillow Research data on energy-efficient upgrades and home value impacts.
This robust data foundation ensures that every homeowner receives results tailored to their specific location and energy market.

Empowering Texans to Make Informed Financial Decisions
Whether a homeowner is trying to combat rising energy bills, reduce their environmental impact, or simply plan next year's home improvement budget, Reliant Plumbing's calculator provides a personalized, accessible way to evaluate whether a tankless water heater is a smart choice.

"Budgeting for a major home upgrade doesn't have to be complicated," said Hicks. "Our goal is to give Texans the tools and information they need to make confident, informed decisions about their home's plumbing and energy use."
