Are you thinking about acquiring an instant water heater? In recent years this model has gained popularity because of the many advantages it offers, among which are: Up to 70% savings in gas and enjoy unlimited hot water. instant water heater is a thermodynamic device that uses electrical energy to raise the water temperature and is one of the most used means in the world of heating.

Some of the main advantages of instant water heater are:

The instant water heater is safer than gas installations, because they do not include a flammable fuel. They are cleaner than other systems, since electricity is the cleanest energy. It does not need ventilation, which can help to save heating, both economically and in energy. Only one invoice is paid. If only the gas is used in the house to heat the water, the installation of an instant water heater leads to paying only one bill and the monthly fee for electricity, compared to the two instalments that would be paid if both services were contracted. When not needing ventilation, it can be installed in other places of the house, apart from the kitchen. Instant water heaters can encourage water savings in the house, especially if several people live in it.

Heater or deposit boiler.

This type of boiler is characterized by having an internal tank in which water is stored. There it is heated until it reaches the temperature selected in the thermostat, at which point it switches off automatically. When the water in the tank cools or is used, the process is repeated. There are several models, but the one that is most commercialized is the so-called "accumulation", however, being very small units their use is limited, in spite of that, the advantage is that they have a low energy expenditure, this type of Heaters are recommended for temperate zones. The electric accumulator boiler turns out to be a good option because they are resistant to pressure and can supply several points of consumption, besides that its installation is simple; There is a wide range of models, from 15 to 1,000 litres. They have the advantage of supplying sufficient hot water at a constant temperature and allowing several taps to be opened at the same time without affecting the temperature of the water supplied. The profitability of electric water heaters depends on the region in which the house is located and the number of people who use this system.

How to choose an instantaneous step heater:

The instant water heater, unlike traditional tank boilers, works through a flow sensor that turns on when the water circulation is detected, thus initiating heating. During the absence of water, it stays off without consuming energy.

Can I install an instant heater in my home?

Before acquiring an instant geyser for your home it is important that you consider if you meet the requirements that you demand. This to ensure optimum performance.

Distance from the heater to the service:

 Adequate water pressure:

The instant boiler does not demand a high amount of water. However, there is a minimum pressure with which we must count to ensure its proper functioning. Usually 200 grs / cm2 are needed (what the company provides us with water), however there are situations in which the pressure can be affected by different factors.

Tip:

If you have water pressure problems you can consider placing a pressure pump. Which allows you to instantly increase the water pressure at a specific point in your home?

Number of services:

The heating capacity of the heater you choose will determine the number of services you will be feeding.

Remember that:

• A shower is 1 service
• A sink is ½ services
• Tub or washing machine is 2 services

 The heating capacity is measured in litters per minute
