About Electric Water Heaters
If your place of business is heated by electricity, there is a good chance that it also uses an electric water heater. Electric water heaters use electricity to heat up the elements which in turn heat the water. Electric water heaters are easy to install and, unlike propane- and natural gas-powered water heaters, do not require venting. Storage tank water heaters are very common in both commercial and domestic settings. These systems heat and store water in large tanks so that a supply of hot water is stored and readily available. Some examples of storage tank systems are: commercial electric storage tank water heaters and heat pump water heaters.
The efficiency of a unit can have an impact on the operating costs of a facility. The energy efficiency of a commercial water heating system depends on both the energy source used and the type of water heater in question. It is also important to consider the difference between energy efficiency and cost efficiency.
