When it comes to water heaters, almost every household will have one. In terms of choice, some people prefer a solar-heated water heater, while others prefer an electrically heated style. A solar water heater is mainly composed of two parts: a water storage device and a solar panel, and in most cases, both are installed outdoors.
When hot water is required, it is usually necessary to release a period of cold water before the hot water comes out. This is because there is a certain distance between the water storage device of the water heater and the washroom and kitchen. And, in the absence of sunlight, solar water heaters still rely on electric heating. However, if you choose an electrically heated water heater, it will be more convenient to use. With just one touch, warm water is available instantly, and the water heater is continuously kept warm to ensure a continuous supply of hot water.
Most electrically heated water heaters are installed indoors, especially in restrooms. However, these water heaters are usually bulky and modern homes have relatively limited restroom space, so they often look crowded and oppressive when installed. But what you may not know is that there is actually a form of installation that can save space and is good for the use and maintenance of your water heater.
Before the integrated ceiling construction, we can hang the water heater in the bathroom and make sure to hang it as high as possible. Subsequently, when installing an integrated ceiling, a large part of the water heater can be hidden inside the ceiling. This installation allows the water heater to be much taller than traditional installations, visually expanding the restroom space. In addition, the integrated ceiling encloses the water heater, which not only plays a protective role, but also invisibly extends the service life of the water heater. Because the exterior of the water heater contains many metal parts, which are usually exposed, and the humidity in the restroom is relatively high, the metal parts may rust and damage after prolonged use. By integrating the wrapping of the ceiling, we can effectively prevent this from happening.
If you want to install the water heater inside the ceiling, you need to be careful during the installation process. First of all, we need to fix the nails on the wall to hang the water heater, and the position of the nails determines the hanging height of the water heater. If possible, it is advisable to drive the nails higher so that the integrated ceiling can better enclose the water heater and thus save space. In addition, it should be noted that the water heater discharges hot water directly from high temperatures, so during installation, there will be a small part of the water pipe on the wall that will be close to the wall to connect to the drain of the hot water pipe. In order to ensure the safe use of the wall, we need to insulate the part of the wall that comes into contact with the water pipe, which not only protects the wall, but also prolongs its lifespan.
If your new house has not been decorated, you may wish to try this installation method, I believe it will add a lot of convenience and comfort to your home.
