Possible solutions for hot water.
Choosing a hot water solution cannot be improvised. To guide you, here is a short description of the three main types of water heaters: gas, electricity and renewable energies.
The gas water heater
By opting for the gas water heater, you will have to choose between the instantaneous water heater or the storage water heater. In the first case, the water being heated on demand, there is no need for a storage tank and will therefore be less bulky. On the contrary, the storage water heater is more cumbersome, but allows to store a large volume of hot water. Be aware that this type of storage water heater is associated with the central heating system.
The electric water heater
Just like the gas water heater, the electric water heater can be either instantaneous or storage. Very easy to install and space-saving, the instantaneous electric water heater is rather to be preferred as a backup system, the flow being very low. The electric storage water heater, on the other hand, has a larger tank for the continuous use of hot water. Be sure to estimate the needs of your home in order to choose a balloon adapted to your consumption. Thus, for a T1, opt for a capacity of 50 to 75L. For a T2 and T3, choose a balloon with a capacity of 100-150L and 200L respectively.
The renewable energy water heater
If you want to save energy, the renewable energy water heater is ideal and will offer you an ecological alternative. Functioning as a heat pump, the thermodynamic balloon absorbs calories from the room in which it is located. Another option, the solar water heater uses the heat of the sun to heat the water. However, this system will require the installation of solar panels.
