Concrete Batch Plant Hot Water Savings Calculator

This calculator computes fuel savings and potential return on investment for a more efficient water heating system. To get a quick idea of how it works, scroll down and hit the "Calculate" button. For more meaningful results, change the default values to reflect your operation. Note that this does not provide information on which to base water tank size selection; it merely provides fuel cost comparisons between two heaters.
Assumptions: 1. Current heater efficiency 75%
2. New heater efficiency 97%
3. Oil = 138,500 BTU/gal
4. Propane = 92,000 BTU/gal
5. Natural gas = 1,000 BTU/cu. ft.
6. Calculations based on 8-hour days, 5 days per week.
