Having a hot day and night is a boon. True, access to heating systems is not universally available. However, a flow-through water heater perfectly solves this problem.
How the flow heater works
A flow-through heater is a device designed to instantly heat water in a living room. Because of the small dimensions, the installation of the device is indicated for a small apartment or a small house, that is, where the storage water heater simply does not fit.
There is no need to wait for the water to warm up. Flowing through the device, the water instantly acquires the set temperature (usually not higher than 60 degrees). The flow-through water heater can operate both from gas and from the home network.
Electric flow-through heater
In the case of an electrical appliance there is a heating element with a high power. That's why such a heater, as a rule, is mounted in houses with electric stoves, otherwise the wiring capacities for work may not be enough. Another option is to hold a separate cable and a shield for the heater.
Of course, there is no need to talk about profitability. Usually the power of the drive varies from 3 to 10 kW. Such indicators are typical for electric flow-through water heaters for water and for kitchen washing. Very small models are often installed under the sink in the kitchen cabinet or directly above the sink. By the way, some models, designed to heat water for the shower, even have hoses with a watering can. If you like to take a bath, you need a very powerful device (from 13 to 27 kW), which operates on a voltage of 380 watts.
Gas flow-through water heater
The modern gas column does not much resemble the cumbersome design that was produced in Soviet times. Today it is a modern device, often with a stylish design. And gas tariffs make the operation of the described heater more economically profitable. True, installing a gas flow-through water heater for an apartment can cost a considerable amount.
