Choose the Capacity That Fits Your Home

  • 30-Gallon: Small homes, apartments, low to moderate demand.
  • 40-Gallon: Balanced capacity for most households (2–3 people).
  • 50-Gallon: Families or homes with higher hot water demand.

How to Choose the Right Size Water Heater (Step-by-Step)

  1. Count household users: 1–2 (30G), 2–3 (40G), 3–5 (50G) is a practical rule of thumb.
  2. Check usage patterns: Back-to-back showers, laundry, and dishwasher cycles increase demand.
  3. Look for First-Hour Rating (FHR): Match FHR to peak hour usage; higher FHR suits bigger families.
  4. Confirm electrical: Most homes use 240V / 1-Phase / 60Hz; ensure a proper breaker sized for 4500W elements.
  5. Measure the space: Verify height/diameter clearance and safe access for maintenance.
Household Recommended Size Why
1–2 people 30-Gallon Compact, efficient for light/moderate usage
2–3 people 40-Gallon Balanced recovery vs. storage for typical homes
3–5 people 50-Gallon Supports multiple back-to-back showers & chores
Pro Tips: First-Hour Rating & Recovery Rate

First-Hour Rating (FHR) estimates how much hot water the unit can deliver in the first hour of peak use. Choose a model whose FHR matches your busiest hour.

Recovery rate is how quickly the tank reheats. MRCOOL’s dual 4500W elements deliver faster recovery than typical residential units, keeping hot water flowing during peak demand.
