Energy efficiency class

This parameter characterizes the efficiency of electricity consumption by the water heater. Classes are indicated by latin letters from A to G (A, B, C, D), where A is the most energy efficient device.

Power consumption

Electrical power consumed by the heater during operation.

This parameter is of key importance for electric models (see "Energy source"). In them, the power consumption corresponds to the power of the heating element and, accordingly, the heat output of the entire device. The overall efficiency and flow rate of the water heater directly depend on the useful power. Accordingly, high-flow rate models inevitably have high consumption. At the same time, we note that the heating power is selected by the designers in such a way as to guarantee the necessary flow rate and water temperature. So when choosing a device according to flow rate, you need to look primarily at flow rate and temperature. Power must be taken into account when connecting: for example, if a 220 V model (see "Power source") consumes more than 3.5 kW, it, as a rule, cannot be plugged into a regular outlet — connection is required according to special rules. And the most productive and high-powered models — 10 kW or more — are connected only to three-phase mains.

The power consumption has a similar value for combined boilers — adjusted for the fact that in them the electric heater is an additional source of heat. For gas and indirect models, this parameter describes the power consumption of control circuits and other auxiliary structural elements; this power consumption is usually very small — on the order of several tens of watts, less often up to 1.5 kW.

Heating time

Time to heat the storage tank (see "Type"), filled with cold water, to operating temperature.

It is worth remembering that this characteristic is not 100% accurate. Manufacturers usually indicate the heating time for certain conditions: a filled tank, maximum heating intensity, and temperature rise (∆T) by a certain number of degrees. In practice, the heating time may differ, both one way and the other. For example, if the heating time for the device is 20 minutes at ∆T = 50 °C, then when the water is heated from 15 °C to 60 °C, the time will be shorter (∆T = 45 °C). Nevertheless, this indicator allows us to evaluate the overall flow rate of the boiler, and with equal ∆T and volumes, different models can be compared in terms of heating time.

Weight

The weight of the device, excluding the water collected (passing) into it.
