Are you prepared for a colder, harsher winter this year? According to India Meteorological Department scientists, Delhi winter will be colder than usual due to La Nina conditions – a weather phenomenon which leads to a cascading impact on global temperature in winter months – and it may cause temperatures to fall below normal in Pune and Nashik in Maharashtra too. So winter’s going to be chilly across India this year. Does it ring a bell? Are your bathrooms equipped with storage water heaters? If your answer is no, then it’s time for you to act.
Choosing the right water heater best suited for your needs can be a daunting task. So what are the key factors to consider when buying a storage water heater? Before deep diving into the quality features of a water heater, first you must know the capacity you need for your bathroom. Then at a broad level, you have to ensure that the water heater you are considering is not a power guzzler. Look up the energy it is going to consume in watts. Then make sure the body is rust proof, and long lasting.
You may be looking for a good price, but you cannot compromise on quality when it comes to a water heater for your bathroom as there can be many a risks in using a low quality product. It’s an electrical product after all and if not manufactured professionally, can lead to short circuits and even shocks. A poor quality water tank or defective valves may lead to leakage and explosions too in few cases.
Find out if the manufacturer is providing a warranty and has a reliable customer service in the price range you are looking for. Here the selection process begins turn serious here and most of the unbranded manufacturers operating in the unorganised market of water heaters will fail to measure up. If you have finally identified a product that has all the features you are seeking, the next question you should ask is can trust the manufacturer? If yes, then the exercise is completed successfully. But if there is a germ of doubt in your mind about the manufacturer’s credibility, it’s better to consider a brand that evokes trust.

They are also is a very effective way of providing insulation. Essco uses glass-lined storage tanks to give the water heater tank a long life.
