The Growing market of Instant Water Heater in Singapore

• Truly “Instant”: As the name suggests, Instant water heaters provide hot water instantly when they’re turned on. Why? Well because unlike the traditional water heaters, they don’t need to heat up a tank full of cold water. Instead, cold water just passes through tubes that have heating coils around them which instantly heats it up while travels through the chamber!
• Energy Saving: Now, due to the fact that it only needs to be turned on for as long as you need hot water, there is no energy being wasted by pre-heating the tank, or wasting energy to keep it hot as it stays in the tank, like in the case with the traditional ones. These can work at up to 90% energy efficiency in some cases.
• Environmentally Sustainable: Due to the fact that these do not waste energy needlessly, it also results in that much less energy being produced.
• Save Space: Since this thing doesn’t use a storage tank, the amount of space required for its installation is dramatically reduced and some people even get it fitted inside the walls since it’s mostly tubes and other thingamajig.

• High cost of Installation: As with all innovations, these instant water heaters too have a high initial installation cost. Although that is generally made up by the low energy bills in some, it still needs a big investment upfront.
• Inconsistent Temperature: These things work like a charm as long as they don’t have to supply water too fast to many outlets. Unlike the traditional heaters where all water would be at a constant temperature, in these ones the water can come out slightly cold is it doesn’t get enough time in the tubes.
