For an apartment for two weeks in summer

If you need a water heater just to avoid running around with basins in the mornings during the blackout season, then an instantaneous heater will undoubtedly suit you. These are small devices and the essence here is simple: water from the water supply passes through the heating element, and then enters the faucet or shower.

This type of water heater is divided into pressure or non-pressure: if you want warm water to be, for example, both in the shower and in the faucet, you need a pressure unit, since it can respond to several points of water intake, and a non-pressure one - only one. A tankless water heater is usually mounted on the wall near the faucet.

Proper care of the boiler or water heater

Like any other equipment, the boiler needs maintenance. Timely replacement of worn parts contributes to a long service life. The most common problem with this type of water heater is scale formation. Solving this problem is very simple: you just need to install special filters at the place of water supply. Also, periodically replacing the heating element will help extend the life of the device.

A boiler located in places of high humidity requires more careful maintenance.

A flat horizontal water heater is an equipment that does not cause any particular problems. It is worth giving preference to such a tank, which has no seams. This will help prevent the development of corrosion.

Timely maintenance and replacement of worn parts - this is the correct care for modern equipment that allows you to feel comfortable. Even the best storage water heater needs proper maintenance.

Overview of the best manufacturers

Since the mid-90s of the 20th century, water heaters of the Italian company Thermex have appeared on the Russian market. They are quite cheap and easy to install, they are assembled in Russia or China, but they are equipped with a reliable security system, a magnesium anode and a tank made of stainless steel. If we talk about the cons, then sometimes users complain about leaks and not very high-quality materials.

Also, since the end of the previous century, Polaris water heaters have been gaining popularity in Russia. Under this trademark, many manufacturers from Italy, China, Turkey and other countries have united. The holding boasts an impressive network of service centers around the world, including in Russia.Water heaters "Polaris" are easy to use and fit perfectly into any interior due to their modern design. All Polaris household appliances are compulsorily tested and meet international quality standards.

Another Italian guest on our water heater market is Ariston. The range of storage water heaters of the Ariston brand is very large; in Russian stores you can find both budget, and very expensive powerful models of this household appliances. Most of the heaters on sale are made in Russia and have a good ratio of functionality, cost and quality.

The tanks of Ariston devices are made of stainless steel or coated with silver ions. Water heaters are easy to operate and provide a high degree of protection. Their main disadvantage is the manufacturer's requirement for an annual replacement of the magnesium anode, if it is not met, the company releases itself from warranty obligations.

The range of Timberk storage water heaters in Russia is very extensive, which is not surprising, because the main market for the company's products is the CIS countries. Most of the water heaters are produced in China, and the brand itself registered in Sweden.

Functionally and qualitatively, Timberk water heaters are a worthy competitor to equipment from leading manufacturers and are characterized by ease of installation, a high level of safety and fast heating. The disadvantages include a short warranty period and an overpriced price for devices from China.

How to choose water heaters for a summer residence

When choosing a water heater, you should decide where it will be installed and how often it is planned to be used. It is better to stay on small-sized models. For a country option, the volume of the tank does not have to be large. You can consider the design of a flat storage electric water heater 10 liters. Round and cylindrical devices take up a lot of space. But it should be borne in mind that flat models have small heat-saving qualities. This option is justified for infrequent use, as it takes up little space and fits well into small niches or cabinets.

Compact design for a summer residence

Flat water heaters have a depth in the range of 23-28 cm. At the same time, the device quickly heats up the water. Also, in some models there are special dividers that can regulate the mixing of water of different temperatures.

It is important to take into account some of the disadvantages of flat devices. They have a shorter lifespan

In addition, the design assumes the presence of two heating elements, the installation of which increases the number of connections. The thermal insulation layer is not as thick as in standard designs.

Flat models do not take up much space

To choose the right design, you must consider the following parameters:

• the volume of the tank depends on the number of people who will use it, as well as on the required volume of water;
• the volume of the inner coating can be made of stainless steel or enamel;
• the power indicator affects the rate of water heating;
• dimensions and type of fastening;
• manufacturer's choice.

It should be borne in mind that during operation, any heaters are subjected to destructive effects from aggressive components, sudden changes in temperature and high pressure.

How to choose the volume of the tank: how the number of people and needs affect

The choice of a water heater with a tank depends on many parameters.

It is important that the design meets all needs and is also an economical solution. The minimum tank size is 10 liters and the maximum is 150

You can choose from the following designs:

• a capacity of 10 liters is enough for household needs, such as washing dishes and for taking a shower by one person. But such a device warms up quickly, and also consumes a small amount of electricity;
• for two people, a 30 liter model is suitable, but you will need to wait a bit until the container warms up. To fill the bath of this volume is not enough, since it will take several hours to fill;
• the volume of 50 liters is suitable for the needs of a small family. These are the most popular models;
• with an 80 liter electric water heater tank, you can even take a bath. At the same time, this volume is not enough for a spacious jacuzzi;
• products from 100 liters are suitable for large families. But such devices have significant weight and large dimensions. And for the installation of installations of 150 liters, it is worth checking whether the supporting structures can withstand such a weight.

The required volume of the tank is selected individually

Features of choice by power level

In all electric boilers for heating water of the storage type, there is 1 or a pair of heating elements. And these details can have different power parameters. In small tanks, 1 heating element is installed. At the same time, its power is 1 kW.

And electric storage water heaters of 50 liters are equipped with a mechanism with a value of 1.5 kW. Models with a capacity of approximately 100 liters are equipped with devices with values ​​​​of 2-2.5 kW.

The floor version of the equipment has more power

The nuances of choosing the type of control

The electronic control method is known to be particularly advantageous. It has wonderful decorative properties and ease of use. At the same time, the price of an electric flat water heater of 30 liters of storage type can be several times higher than that of a device with mechanical settings.

With electric control, the desired indicators are set once, and then they do not need to be adjusted every day. Remember that the failure of at least one element can lead to the failure of the entire equipment.

Ease of electronic control

What are the advantages of anti-corrosion protection

Modern models have a special protective layer that prevents corrosion and damage to the structure.

Tanks can be:

• stainless;
• titanium;
• enamelled.

The surfaces inside the tanks come into regular contact with liquid, causing rust to form. Titanium sputtering or glass porcelain is used as a coating. The glass-ceramic version does not tolerate temperature fluctuations well, which causes cracks.

Which water heater is better to choose

The choice of a water heater depends on the needs and number of people in the family, as well as on energy sources. The most economical is the usual gas water heater, but gas is not available everywhere, that is, this option is not available in every home.

If you install a boiler - pay attention to its volume. If there are three people in the family, then the tank must be at least 80 liters

Smart control is very convenient when it is possible to install an Internet module. Most boilers are also convenient in that they do not require intervention in the mains, and are powered by an outlet. In eco mode, the water heats up longer, but energy is saved.Well, if there is more than one mounting option.

In terms of safety, both instantaneous and storage water heaters powered by any source of energy are now at their best. The ergonomics of most devices are simple and pleasant. As for the cost, there are decent options both in the budget range and among expensive models, so you are sure to find a decent water heater in any price category.

Technical characteristics of the vertical flat water heater 80 l

A flat water heater is a container. It is installed in the required place, as a rule, on the wall using a special durable mount. The material used for the tank is high-quality steel coated with a special paint. The case itself, even when heated, remains cold and does not pose a threat to human health. A high-quality boiler will last a very long time, perfectly performing its functions.

A special thermal insulation is placed inside the case, and only then a special tank for heating water is placed. This part of the boiler consists of titanium - the most durable and hardy material. The water heater is connected to the water supply.The water in the equipment is heated using a special electric heating element. Also, the equipment is equipped with a thermostat, which is a regulator of water temperature. It prevents boiling, maintains the required temperature, which is specified by the user.

Types of water heaters

In general, water heaters are divided into:

1. Flowing. These include instantaneous electric water heaters and gas water heaters. Depending on the power, they can produce a certain amount of water;
2. Cumulative. Usually heated with electric heating elementov or gas. Storage can be direct (when the heat source is in the tank itself, heating element or gas nozzle) and indirect heating, in them the water is heated from the coolant (water from the heating system, for example) which flows through the heat exchanger (coil) inside the tank.

The difference between a storage water heater and a flow water heater

Storage water heaters are most often called boilers or tanks.

The body of the storage tank for heating water consists of three layers: Inner tank - thermal insulation - outer body.

The principle of its action is as follows. Water enters the tank through the inlet pipe, fills up, turns on the heating element, after which the water is heated to a predetermined temperature. When you open one of the taps (consumers), hot water enters the open tap through the outlet pipe. The pressure in the tank is created by the inlet pressure in the cold water pipe. The inlet pipe is usually located below the hot water intake point of the outlet pipe.

A storage water heater is called a boiler

If the water heater is electric direct heating, then an electric one is installed in the tank. heating element. This is the most common type of boiler. It takes some time to heat water from ten minutes to a couple of hours (depending on the volume of water being heated and its initial and desired temperature) - this is the main difference between storage and instantaneous water heaters, which provide hot water almost instantly.

But you have to pay for the heating rate, and the power of the flowers is usually more than 5 kW, otherwise you will get hot water at a very low pressure.

Important! To connect a powerful load above 3 kW to the home electrical network, it may be necessary to increase the allocated power to the apartment or organize a three-phase input. This entails paperwork and related work.

Due to the accumulative functions, such a container also occupies the corresponding volume in space. This also needs to be foreseen, because the boiler may simply not fit into your apartment.

The heated water maintains its temperature throughout the day, which additionally saves energy.

Thermal insulation is made of foamed polyurethane, there are also cheap models with foam rubber, but they retain heat worse. The thicker the insulating layer, the better. When choosing from two similar tanks, it is better to give preference to the one that is larger in size with the same volume, since it is likely that its thermal insulation will be thicker.

Storage water heater design

The table below shows the differences between flow and storage devices for hot water supply.

flowing	Cumulative
Fast water heating	Long water heating
Heats water while it flows through it	Heats the water collected in itself (accumulated)
Consumes a lot of power in the course of its work. For normal heating, you need 5 or more kW	Consumes low power, most models can be plugged into a socket, their power is from 1 to 2 kW

Advantages and disadvantages

Advantages:

1. Low power consumption;
2. Ease of installation. To install a geyser, you need to add it to the gas equipment plan of your apartment in order to install an electric storage heater. This means that installation will be cheaper and easier for you, you will only need to connect to the pipes DHW your apartment;
3. Low power allows you to connect to any outlet, and 16 A plugs can easily cope with the increased load, but you will have to turn off other powerful electrical appliances when the water is heated.

Flaws:

1. 1. The amount of hot water is limited by the capacity of the tank;
   2. Large containers are heavy and take up a lot of space;
   3. Not every apartment can hang a water heating tank due to the design of the walls;
   4. Depending on the region and area, it may be more profitable for you to install a flow-through gas heater (column).

Storage water heaters

The storage water heater is made in the form of a heat-insulated tank provided with an anti-corrosion coating. In this tank, water is heated to a predetermined temperature.

Often in everyday life, a storage heater is called a boiler.

Cumulative models have the following advantages:

• Provide heating of rather large volumes of water.
• Provides the opportunity to supply water to several points of water intake. In other words, one such water heater can provide hot water to several bathrooms or washbasins. This is especially true for private houses.
• The operation of the boiler does not depend on the pressure of the water supplied to the device.This is the main advantage over flow models, in which the temperature is controlled by the speed of water passing through the heating element.
• Water is heated to high temperatures. At the exit, you can get water, the temperature of which reaches 85 degrees.
• The heat-insulating layer of the water tank allows you to keep the temperature for a long time. This provides savings and has a positive effect on the usability of the water heater.

Storage water heaters also have their disadvantages:

If cold water is poured into the boiler, its initial heating will take some time.
If the need for hot water is low, you can not avoid the extra energy required to maintain the temperature.
Placement of the heater tank requires sufficient space

This is especially important in small apartments. To minimize the problems associated with this drawback, the purchase of a compact model of the boiler will allow.
High price

Instantaneous water heaters are much cheaper than storage water heaters.
Water quality may deteriorate if left in the tank for a long time.

Which brand storage water heater is better?

Judging by customer reviews, not all manufacturers can be trusted recklessly. But the products of several brands that have proven themselves from the best side are in constant demand in Russia and abroad.

• Electrolux (Sweden) produces washing machines, dishwashers, refrigerators. The most popular water heaters of this company are easy to control thanks to the built-in electronics. They are slightly more expensive than their counterparts. But there are cheap boilers with more complex mechanical controls.
• Thermex (Russia) produces only water heaters. Products of this company are in demand in many countries of the world.
• Ariston (Italy) is part of the Indesit brand, produces heating boilers and water heaters. Setting up the operation of boilers is electronic, but not fancy. The quality of the products is above average and the prices are below.
• Ballu (Russia) manufactures climatic equipment for industrial and domestic needs. Economic storage water heaters with stainless steel tanks or enamel coating will last a long time and without fail.
• Zanussi (Italy) is a subsidiary of the Electrolux concern. It produces large household appliances (refrigerators, freezers, stoves, hoods, washing and drying machines, microwave ovens). The boilers of this company have earned high customer ratings.

A selection of the best heater models is based on the ratings of those who bought and use them.
