On Demand Water Heater An Improvement on the Existing Electric Heater

Introduction

Problem Background

Traditional Water Tank Heaters Foam Insulation

Electric-Resistance Instantaneous Water Heater FLOW OUTFLOW IN

Tankless Water Heater

Electric-Resistance Tankless Water Heater

Criteria for Success

Possible Solutions: More Insulated Pipes

Cold Water Flow Hot Water Flow KEY Tank Water Heater Appliances Heat Lose Primary Source of Shower Temp Fluctuations Typical Plumbing Schematic for a Single Family Dwelling Ground Water Inlet

Possible Solutions: Modified Mixer Valve

Possible Solutions: Pros and Cons Thus Far ProsCons More Insulated Pipes - Easy to buy and install - Less wait time for hot water - Tearing down parts of walls in kitchen, bath, adjoining rooms where pipes may be found - Still fluctuation - about 4º F retention Modified Mixer Valve - No fluctuation - Installation in one place - Still wasted water and energy - Existing simpler version

Possible Solutions: To the Source

Possible Solutions: Types of Hot Water Tanks Top Choice: Electric

Possible Solution: On Demand Water Heater

The Ideal Solution Implication of fin system stemming off of the cartridge heater

The Ideal Solution Pre-manufactured Cartridge with Fin SystemEasy Installation into Piping
