Sometimes, it is necessary to heat up water due to the cold weather. Bathing with hot water is necessary to prevent catching a cold. Also, hot water helps us to relax which is why people love to bathe with it. Generally, hot water can be used for so many things in the house, and to get some, you need to actually heat some water up.
Heating up water could be done in a few days, one of them being having to boil the water over the fire. Over time and due to the evolution of technology, ways to save up some gas that would have been used to heat up water have been introduced. One of the many effective ways of doing that is by having a water heater.
A water heater is a home appliance or device that is used for heating up domestic water in the home. Although almost all of them use electricity as an energy source, because these are the least expensive to buy, some of them also use gas and oil units. There are different types of water heaters and they include:
• Storage tank heaters: the primary features of this type are an insulated steel cylinder, valves, a thermostat, and a control panel. Cold water enters the water heater through an inlet port that is located in the lower portion of the tank. The water supply line has an automatic shutoff valve and a relief valve. The thermostat cycles the heating element on and off as required to maintain the appropriate water temperature. After the water inside the tank reaches a pre-set temperature, it will exit through a hot water supply line located at the top of the tank.
• Tankless water heaters: this kind of tanker does not store and continually heat water. It is only activated or begins to do its job when the hot water faucet is opened. As the water begins to flow, an electromagnetic reaction triggers the heating element. As water passes through these elements, it is warmed to the desired temperature. These kinds of water heaters are a bit more expensive, but they help to conserve energy.
The benefits of having a water heater at home cannot be overstated. For one, you save money on the gas that one would normally use to boil water. Another advantage is that you can save up a lot of money even when you use one, especially a tankless water heater, so you need not worry about increasing your utility bill drastically. Last of all, who would not want to have hot water when they need it without having to go through the stress of entering the kitchen to boil it? All these are achievable with a good water heater in the home.
