Efficient Water Heating for Newton Homes

Water heating is one of the largest sources of energy use in homes—and a key opportunity for you to improve your home’s energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. If you are considering a water heater upgrade or replacement, or just looking to be ready when it’s time to make this change, understanding today’s options can help you lower energy bills, improve comfort, and support a cleaner energy future.

This free, online evening information session is designed for Newton homeowners who want clear, practical guidance on efficient and low-carbon water heating solutions, without sales pressure or technical jargon.

The session will cover:

• Heat pump water heaters and how they can significantly reduce energy use and emissions
• Solar water heating and hybrid heat pump–solar systems for homes interested in renewable options
• Tankless (on-demand) water heaters and when they may be a good fit
• A real-world case study showing how a homeowner evaluated options and made a decision

The focus will be on what matters most to residents—how these systems work in everyday life, space and installation considerations, efficiency, and long-term value—so you can make informed choices for your home and be prepared.

This event is hosted by Green Newton, the City of Newton Climate & Sustainability Team with local guest experts from Reservoir Home, New England Solar Hot Water, and Boston Tank Swap.
