Replacement of water heater:
There are many different type of water heating system. The first choice one has to
make when purchasing a water heater is to purchase a instant or a storage heater? The cost of an instant system is
usually lower than compared to that of a storage water system by quite a fair bit. So what is the difference?
The difference is in the eletricity consumption and the heating method.
Some basic factor to consider when choosing your water
heater:
When purchasing your home water heater, one of the main factors to consider
is the consumption of water that you are expecting. The main difference between a instant heater and a storage
heater is the way in which it heats up your water. As the name suggest, a instant water heater only heats up the
water the instant you on it while a storage heater has a storage tank that stores water. When you switch on the
heater, all the water within the tank is heated up.
As such, a instant heater is suitable
if say it is only installed for a shower room while a storage heater would be preferable if the hot water is meant for higher usuage.
For example, if you are running a rain
shower or intend to have hot water for your entire home - ie: bathroom shower as well as tap and sink tap, you
should probably consider using a storage heater instead of an instant.
Simple method to calculate:
Determine the amount of time you need the hot water - Eg: household of 4, showers 30 minute
each.
Total time of shower: 30 x 4 = 2 hour.
If your instant heater uses 3 kw/hr total consumption per day is 6kw.
Storage heater uses 2kw/hr. To heat up enough water you need to on it for approx 1 hour: total consumption is 2kw
per day.
So overall you saved on power consumption and yet enjoy higher water pressure.
However, if we are to reverse it to low usuage ie: 1 person shower 15 minute
instant uses less than 1kw per day but the storage still might still use 2kw since it has to heat
up the entire tank of water.
* note: the above example does not take into account current water temperature in water tank and
capacity and is used as a rough example only.
Other pros and cons:
A instant heating system provides you with hot water almost immediately. Storage system does
require some waiting time as the water heats up in the storage tank.
Water pressure from storage system are usually better than that of instant heaters.
Instant heater lifespan is approx 3 - 5 years while storage heater lifespan is approx 5 - 7
years.
