Storage Heater vs Instant Heater in Singapore

Water heaters are now an essential part of our lives. The appliance warms the water which is used mainly in the bathroom. In Singapore, the use of water heaters is very common. But before buying the device and installing in your bathroom, you need to know some important facts about it. The first and foremost thing you need to know is that there are two types of water heaters, storage water heater and Instant water heater.

Storage water Heater: The storage water heaters are usually installed over the false ceiling of your house so they can’t be seen. They take some space while being installed. The new models of Storage Water Heater can have the volume of up to 30 to 100 liters. The heater which is most commonly used in Singapore has the capacity of around 40 liters which is more than enough for a family of 4 people. After every 5 years, the water filters must be cleaned and maintenance must be done to the heater.

 

Instant Heater: This heater is a lot different from the storage water heater. You don’t need a reservoir here to keep the water instead it heats up the water when it is needed instantly. Water will become heated as it passes the heat exchanger and you can get water of your required temperature. The advantage this heater has is its low energy cost as it is only used when needed which is not the case in Storage Water Heater. So, because of its low energy cost, the price of this heater is much higher than the Storage Water Heater. The repairing cost of this heater is low too. Another advantage of this heater is it does not take too much space and is portable. The maintenance of this heater must be done every 3 to 5 years.
