Water Heater Sizing Calculator

Size a water heater from the fixtures it serves: first-hour rating for residential, or the ASPE recovery-and-storage method for commercial.

Storage and recovery trade against each other. A large tank with a small burner and a small tank with a large burner can serve the same peak – which one is right depends on how sharp that peak is and what the fuel costs.
