Storage Electric Water Heater: Operation, Advantages, and FAQs

What is a Storage Electric Water Heater?

A storage electric water heater, also known as a tank-type electric water heater, is designed to heat and store hot water in a large, insulated tank. Unlike instant (tankless) water heaters that heat water on demand, a storage water heater keeps a ready supply of hot water available at all times.

How Does Our Storage Electric Water Heater Work?

Our storage electric water heaters feature advanced engineering and components:

✔1. Stainless Steel Inner Tank
The inner tank is made of high-quality stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance and durability. This ensures a long service life and consistent water quality.

✔2. Power and Heating Elements
Depending on your hot water needs, our models offer powerful heating options: 5500W or 10000W. This high power ensures quick heating, even for large-capacity tanks.

✔3. Voltage and Frequency
All our heaters operate at 220V / 50Hz, compatible with standard household electrical systems.

✔4. Capacities to Meet Your Needs
We offer a wide range of tank capacities: 120L, 150L, 200L, 300L, and 500L. No matter the size of your household or commercial application, there’s a perfect fit for you.

✔5. Adjustable Temperature Range
Our heaters feature a temperature range from 30°C to 55°C, allowing you to set your preferred water temperature for ultimate comfort.

 ✔6. Touch Control & Digital Display
Control your water heater with modern touch controls and monitor temperature and operation through a digital display for easy, intuitive use.

✔7. Safety and Certification
Each model is built with safety in mind, featuring an IPX4 waterproof rating for reliable bathroom or utility room installation. Our products also come with CE, ISO, CCC, and UKCA certifications, ensuring compliance with international safety and quality standards.

✔8. Thermostat Control and Automatic Shutoff
A built-in thermostat continuously monitors the water temperature. When the temperature drops below the set point, the heating element automatically turns on. Once the desired temperature is reached, the system automatically shuts off to conserve energy.

✔9. Pressure Relief and Safety Features
Modern safety features like pressure relief valves and overheat protection ensure safe operation at all times.
