Nowadays, there is a great opportunity to provide a country house with all comfortable conditions, including the availability of hot water. To do this, you just need to purchase good water heaters for summer cottages.

Hot water in a summer cottage is a condition of prime necessity. Because, despite the weather conditions, work is always in full swing here. And in cold water it is impossible not only to take a shower, wash clothes, wash dishes, but also wash your hands well. You can, of course, take a bath in the bath, but heating it around the clock is very unprofitable. You can install a container for heating water in the sun, but in cloudy weather and on cold days this will not work either. Therefore, buying a suitable water heater is the best option.

Device Requirements

A water heater for a country house is somewhat different from a device for a city apartment. A device intended for summer cottages must meet several basic requirements:

1. Economical consumption of fuel or energy. You need to decide what is more practical and profitable for you - wood, gas or electric appliance.
2. Suitable tank size for the needs of the family. For a country house, it is better to purchase devices with a small tank, because they are light and compact. But at the same time, it is necessary to calculate the daily consumption of hot water in the country.
3. Correspondence of power with technical capabilities. It is worth consulting with an electrician regarding the possibilities of your electrical wiring.
4. Practicality and ease of use.

First you need to decide with what energy the device will heat the water. In the country, you can use titanium on wood, a gas water heater or an electrical appliance.

In the presence of autonomous heating, you can connect the water heater to the heating boiler.

In addition, you need to accurately determine the required volume of hot water and the time of its heating. The following main parameters are the geometric and technical properties of the device - its dimensions and shape, efficiency and power. These criteria will affect the duration of water heating and energy consumption.

For example, for a large family, a storage water heater with a volume of about 200 liters will be convenient. For a small family, a small flow apparatus is suitable, which will heat water very quickly.

Device characteristics

When choosing a water heater for a summer residence, it is necessary to take into account its defining parameters:

• type of device - accumulative, bulk, flow;
• the principle of water intake - pressure, non-pressure;
• type of energy used - gas, solid fuel, solar, electric;
• the highest heating temperature - 40 - 100 ° C;
• the volume of the water tank is 5 - 200 liters;
• device power - 1.25 - 8 kW;
• installation method - floor, wall, universal.

Types of water heaters

Choosing a suitable heating tank for water in the country is a rather difficult task. Because the stores offer a huge number of different models. To decide which one is best for your needs, you must first understand how they differ.

Wall and floor

Regarding the installation method, water heaters are divided into wall and floor. Which one to choose depends on the parameters of the house and the purpose of the device.

A wall-mounted water heater for a summer residence is considered more convenient, based on space saving considerations. Due to its size, the device is suitable even for small buildings. It usually has a small tank, so it is good for people who use little water.

The floor water heater is large, so for small houses this is not the best option. However, the tank volume of these models is much larger than that of wall-mounted ones. It can hold 80 to 200 liters of water. Therefore, with a long stay in the country with the whole family, it is advisable to choose a floor device.

Bulk, flow and accumulative

Based on the method of water supply, water heaters are divided into three types - bulk, instantaneous and storage. In this case, the choice depends on the water supply mechanism - it comes through the water supply or is brought from the well.

A bulk water heater is suitable for cottages that are not connected to the water supply (the majority of us have such). The device is equipped with a tank that is filled with water manually - a ladle, a watering can, a ladle. These devices are often combined with a sink or shower.

A flowing water heater for a summer residence is installed if there is a connection to the water supply. Heating occurs when water flows through the heat exchanger of the device. For its normal operation, an average pressure of water is needed. Otherwise, it will either be barely warm, or flow in a thin stream. Such devices are usually equipped with a temperature controller and an electronic control panel.

The storage water heater has a large capacity, which can be heated using a heating element or a gas burner. The main advantage of this device is the ability to stock up on the required volume of hot water.

The water heater tank is protected from the outside by thermal insulation and a durable casing. The device is equipped with a control panel, which necessarily contains a temperature controller. If the temperature sensor detects a temperature in the tank below the set temperature, the device automatically turns on.

Pressure and non-pressure

A wide range is divided into pressure and non-pressure devices. Both types are connected to the mains and powered by electricity. The main differences between pressure and non-pressure instantaneous water heaters are expressed in the following.

Pressure devices crash into water pipes and are under constant pressure of water. As a rule, their installation is carried out by experienced craftsmen. Such devices provide multiple points of consumption. They allow one person to wash dishes at the same time, and another to take a shower.

Pressurized water heaters operate in automatic mode, reacting to the opening of the tap. Their models are presented with different capacities. Therefore, choosing a suitable country water heater will not be very difficult.

The non-pressure device is installed only at one point of consumption and requires the installation of special water fittings. Therefore, when choosing this type, it will be necessary to install a similar device on each crane. The power of non-pressure water heaters is up to 8 kW. The supply of cold water is carried out using a pump or manually. Most often, they immediately come with a shower or kitchen nozzle.

It is worth noting that it is impossible to replace one nozzle with another. All components are assembled at the factory. Therefore, before buying, you need to pay special attention to the components of the device.

Classification of water heaters by heating method

The most important criterion for choosing water heaters for summer cottages is the type of energy used. On this basis, 4 types of devices are distinguished:

• wood or solid fuel;
• solar;
• gas;
• electrical.

Solid fuel, gas and electric water heaters are popular in our country. Solar devices are used very rarely.

Wood and solid fuel water heaters

The device consists of a compartment for fuel and a tank for water. A pipe is installed for the chimney. Water is heated by the combustion of firewood, coal and hot smoke coming out of the furnace through the chimney.

There are many cons of this device, and often they outweigh all the pros. The main disadvantages are: high fire hazard and the need to constantly add fuel to the compartment.

Solar water heaters

The devices are powered by solar panels - long glass tubes filled with a special compound. They absorb solar energy and generate a direct electric current from it.

On the one hand, solar water heaters are very economical. But on the other hand, on cold and cloudy days, they cannot absorb enough solar energy to fully provide the family with warm water.

Gas water heaters

These devices have a simple design and can operate at low pressure. In addition, fuel for them is much cheaper than for other options. But such devices also have some disadvantages: the need for systematic preventive inspections and maintenance, noise during operation and unstable water temperature.

The gas instantaneous water heater has a simple mechanism of operation. Cold water gets into it, moves through special heat exchange channels, as a result of which it gradually heats up. The water temperature depends on several reasons: pressure, automatic mode settings and frequency of use of the device.

Gas storage water heater - water is heated in tanks by burning gas. This type of water heater for summer cottages is very efficient and can guarantee an uninterrupted supply of large volumes of hot water. Disadvantages - high costs, however, with built-in automation, its efficiency and economy are significantly increased.

Electric water heaters

Such devices are purchased not only for a city apartment, but also for a country house. Especially if gas is not supplied to the dacha. Electric water heaters for summer cottages are very convenient to use, but for their normal operation you need good water pressure and the absence of power outages in the network.

The water is heated by means of a heating element installed inside the device. Cold water moves in a spiral and heats up. Its advantages are good economy, and disadvantages - low efficiency. The more water pressure, the cooler it is, the less - the warmer.

They have a similar mechanism of operation, like the flow ones. Only the water does not flow, but is in the tank, which is heated by a heating element. Pluses consist in an uninterrupted flow of hot water. The downside is that it takes extra time to warm up.

Electric storage water heaters

Simple and modern devices - which consist of a water storage device for giving and a heating element of a heating element. The tank capacity is usually 10 - 200 liters, and the heating element's power is 1.2 - 8 kW. The duration of heating depends on the volume of the tank, the power of the heating element and the temperature of the incoming cold water. For a 10-liter tank, half an hour will be enough, for a 200-liter tank, about 7 hours.

In addition, electric storage water heaters for summer cottages include: a magnesium anode (protects the internal tank from corrosion), a heat-insulating layer (allows you to keep warm), a thermostat (temperature control), an external housing, a safety valve.

A storage water heater has several advantages:

• keeps hot water in its container for a long time;
• in the event of a temporary power outage, it supplies previously heated water;
• it is possible to program the operation at night, heating water for a morning shower or in order to save energy;
• at a high location, it is an element that forms a pressure in the system.

Electric instantaneous water heaters

In instantaneous water heaters for summer cottages, water does not accumulate, it is heated when flowing through a heat exchanger. And electricity is consumed only during the use of hot water.

Flow devices are equipped with a special heating coil or heating element. The spiral heating element heats water up to 45 degrees and needs to be warmed up. But it works well in hard water and does not need to be cleaned. TENovye flow devices heat water very quickly up to 60 degrees, thanks to this electricity is saved.

Some instantaneous water heaters are equipped with an electronic power regulator, thanks to which a stable temperature of warm water is maintained.

Instantaneous water heaters for summer cottages have such positive qualities:

• provide unlimited consumption of hot water;
• compact, they are easy to remove and take away for the winter;
• do not dry the air;
• do not require special maintenance.

Electric bulk water heaters

Many dachas have problems with water distribution or there is no plumbing system at all. Therefore, a bulk water heater with a heater is still in great demand. Water is simply poured into the tank, and after a while it heats up to the desired temperature. Then it is fed through a tap located at the bottom of the tank.

Advantages of bulk water heaters:

• durable container for heating water from stainless steel, which will last a long time;
• a simple device device that does not require special training for installation and subsequent use;
• models with heating elements of different capacities;
• the presence of a thermostat, which eliminates the likelihood of water evaporation and, as a result, damage to the device.

Bulk water heater "Moydodyr"

Like electrical appliances, a water heater for summer cottages can be installed in the kitchen (with a small capacity) or in the shower. The most affordable and practical version of this heater is the Moidodyr system. The device is located directly above the sink. The reservoir for the used water is placed in a curbstone below.

Modern models "" heat water to the required temperature automatically, they are equipped with protection against "dry" heating and overheating. The bulk water heater is compact and very convenient to use, in addition, you do not need to buy an additional sink for washing dishes. However, when choosing this option, you need to consider that his tank is small. Therefore, its functionality is very limited.

Bulk shower water heater

This device is a tank with a volume of 50 - 150 liters with a built-in heating element. It is equipped with a thermostat, which makes it possible to regulate the heating temperature. The bulk water heater for a shower is equipped with protection against "dry" inclusion. Water is poured into this apparatus by buckets or by means of a pump. The most cost-effective device is Sadko. It can be mounted above an outdoor shower or above a bathtub.

When installing a bulk water heater above the shower, solar energy can be used for heating on sunny days. This will save electricity. And on cloudy days it is better to use a heating element.

Bulk water heater with shower

For convenience, you can purchase a country bulk water heater with a shower. This device consists of a heater, a cabin, a shower head, a tray and a curtain. Such structures are made with or without electric heating. In the latter case, water is heated only from sunlight.

In a summer cottage, such a device can make life much easier, especially in the absence of running water. You just need to pour water into the tank, heat it up and use it for your own needs.

Which water heater to choose for a summer residence?

When choosing a country water heater, you first need to clarify the initial parameters of the electrical wiring. This will determine the maximum power of the device that can be connected. If necessary, you can change the wiring or proceed from what is.

The power of the device depends on the water consumption for each task:

• for washing dishes, a power of 4 - 6 kW is suitable;
• the use of a shower requires a power of 8 kW;
• to get a bath you need 13-15 kW, in this case you will need a three-phase water heater.

To give, with a voltage of 220 volts, it is best to buy small devices with a power of 3 - 8 kW.

In addition, when buying an electric water heater, you need to consider its size and weight. These parameters play a decisive role for the installation.

In order not to get into trouble, when choosing a manufacturer, we recommend that you carefully study the documentation of the device.

Choosing a water heater for a summer residence - video

Water heater "Dachny" is the first bulk water heater designed in Russia. The idea of ​​creating a water heater of this type belongs to a group of engineers of the Pskov Electrotechnical Plant (at that time OJSC Elterm). In 1996, molds for casting the body of a new product were developed and manufactured, and in 1998 the necessary injection molding equipment was purchased, and the entire production cycle began to be carried out at the plant. Until that time, in rural houses, in summer cottages and garden plots that did not have running water, ordinary washstands were used. Bulk water heater, which is actually heated washbasin, allows you to quickly and inexpensively get warm water in such conditions. Its advantages include low price, undemanding to the quality of the water used, the ability to quickly install and start using. The capacity of the bulk water heater, if necessary, can be easily washed from the inside.

Water heater "Dachny" is packed in a cardboard box. Package size - 580x155x360 mm, weight - 2.7 kg.

The kit includes the water heater itself with a removable top cover and a water tap, a pair of wall mounting brackets and instructions. The body is made of polypropylene, painted white. It should be especially noted that the bulk water heater "Dachny" can be mounted both on the wall and on most frames. washstands moidodyr.

Inside the housing there is a tubular electric heater (TEH) made of stainless steel with a power of 1.25 kW and a thermostat mounting stud. A distinctive feature of the Dachny water heater is a partition located inside the body and forming a compartment for removing excess water through a special outlet. Looking at this partition, it is easy to guess which product was chosen as the basis for designing the body of the first bulk water heater. The practical benefit of such a solution is minimal, and the disadvantage is the following: when the device is operating, water constantly condenses on the inner surface of the top cover, drops of which fall into the compartment and then go out through the hole. But since under the water heater, as a rule, there is a sink or other container for collecting water, this drawback is not significant. On the back wall there are special tides for mounting brackets.

The top cover of the water heater with molded stiffening ribs tightly covers the container, keeping it from deformation when the water is heated.

The electrical part is located in a special compartment on the side and is closed with a removable cover. Since 2005, the Dachny water heater has been using a thermostat with the ability to smoothly adjust the temperature. It is also used as a switch. The water heater is connected to the mains using a molded plug with a grounding contact. This eliminates the risk of electric shock, provided that the wiring in the house is correct.

In earlier modifications of the country water heater, a thermostat, an emergency thermal switch and a mains switch were used. The thermostat maintained the temperature within 50±5°C. In the future, it was decided to abandon bulky components of our own production in favor of reliable products manufactured on professional equipment. This allowed to reduce the cost and virtually eliminate manufacturing defects.

The heating element of the Dachny water heater in the latest modification is lowered as much as possible, but it is still slightly above the level of the drain hole. For this reason, and also due to the absence of an emergency thermal switch, it is strictly forbidden to turn on the bulk water heater without water.

The water folding tap of the Dachny water heater of double action is made of plastic. This is also the development of a group of engineers of JSC "Elterm". The crane is easily installed on the body without the help of tools, its advantage is its low cost. The use of more expensive metal faucets entails the problem of a reliable electrical connection of the faucet body with a protective earth wire. The solution to this problem affects the cost of the water heater, and in the absence of such a connection, the water heater will not meet the electrical safety requirements and will not receive a certificate of conformity.

We assemble the water heater, install the faucet, cover it with a lid. When assembled, the dimensions of the Dachny water heater are 560x210x345 mm, weight - 2.2 kg.

Pour water, controlling its volume. If 15 liters, declared in the instructions as a nominal volume, are filled, then the water level is approximately 3 cm below the edge of the overflow compartment partition. In this case, the body is deformed by about 1 cm in width at the top. Covering the case with the top cover, we remove the deformation.

We connect the power cord to the electrical network, turn on the water heater. The backlight comes on and the water starts to heat up. We check the operation of the thermostat at the minimum and maximum positions.

We monitor the temperature of the heated water, measuring it with a household multimeter with an external sensor - a thermocouple. The sensor is placed in water at the top of the water heater at a depth of about 5 cm, the top cover is closed. Water temperature before heating 20°C, water volume 15l, ambient temperature 20°C. The thermostat is in the minimum heat position. The measurement results are presented in the table.
