   A hot water storage tank (also called a hot water tank, thermal storage tank, hot water thermal storage unit, heat storage tank, hot water cylinder, and geyser) is a water tank used for storing hot water for space heating or domestic use. Water is a convenient heat storage medium because it has a high specific heat capacity. This means ...

3. Water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heating

   Water typically enters residences in the US at about 10 °C (50 °F), depending on latitude and season. Hot water temperatures of 50 °C (122 °F) are usual for dish-washing, laundry and showering, which requires that the heater raise the water temperature about 40 °C (72 °F) if the hot water is mixed with cold water at the point of use.

4. Tankless water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankless_water_heating

   Maintaining constant shower temperature: Similarly, unlike with a tank heater, the hot water temperature from a non-modulated tankless heater is inversely proportional to the rate of the water flow—the faster the flow, the less time the water spends in the heating element being heated. Mixing hot and cold water to the "right" temperature from ...

5. Instant hot water dispenser - Wikipedia

   On the other hand, an instant hot water dispenser without a tank does not waste significant energy. When hot water is needed, the instant heater consumes at least 2000 watts to produce hot water at 92 °C and above. [citation needed] The hot water flow rate is approximately 20 litres per hour. Comparing this with the insulated tank type of hot ...

   They also shut off rapidly in the event of a hot or cold supply failure to prevent scalding or thermal shock. It is increasingly common practice around the world to regulate the storage water temperature to above 60 °C (140 °F), and to circulate or distribute water at a temperature less than 50 °C (122 °F).
