• Wrap your water heater with a water heater blanket, especially if it’s in an unheated area of your home. The blanket could save you up to 10 percent on water heating costs. (Some newer models are so well insulated that you don’t need to wrap them. Check first to see if adding an insulating blanket to your water heater will affect the affect the warranty.)
