    Now it may be due to this electric water heater.

    There is always news of people leaking electricity, and another point is that electricity is more expensive to use than gas. So now many friends are planning to install gas water heaters at home.

    The ideal place to install a water heater (no matter what type of water heater) is the closest to the point of maximum water use (where the amount and frequency of hot water is used) – and for a home, the restroom is the biggest point of use. Therefore, it is best to install a water heater in the bathroom.

    <>Generally speaking, the hot water in our homes is inseparable from the heating of water heaters (gas water heaters, electric water heaters), and the hot water needs to be transported by hot water pipes at various water points. The kitchen is at the northernmost edge, the living room and dining room are further south, the bathroom is further south, and the bedroom is at the southernmost end. There is a long and narrow living room between the kitchen and bathroom, so the distance between the gas water heater and the bathroom outlet must be at least 6-7 meters.

    When cold water is used, hot water is flushed out, and part of the hot water circulation system cannot be used. No matter which cycle method is adopted, the gas water heater needs to be started frequently to increase energy consumption. In particular, gas water heaters are hot and have no water storage devices, so they consume more energy.

    Install a return pipe for the hot water pipe.

    This needs to be done when changing the water, if there is no consideration in this regard at the time, the house is installed, and then it is not so easy to get it, the water pipe goes to the top, and it can be changed together, and the water pipe goes to the wall and the ground, so you can only give up.

    Gas water heater**bath hot water, install a hot water treasure in the washbasin cabinet, **washbasin hot water. Although the gas water heater is far away from the bathroom, the pipe diameter is not thick, and some cold water at the front end is put before each bath, and a few catties of water are wasted in total. Use a gas water heater in the kitchen and bathroom, and then arrange hot water pipes to lead to the kitchen and bathroom.

    This arrangement is actually very reasonable, so that it can meet the water in the kitchen and the water in the bathroom.

    Of course, it can be shared, just install the water heater in the bathroom and extend a pipe to the kitchen.

    Is the house renovated, kitchen and bathroom suitable for shared gas water heater? How to install it more cost-effective and easy to use?

    Yes, you can**. Regardless of whether the gas water heater is enough or not, as long as there is enough fuel, there will be a steady stream of hot water. The difference in the number of liters of a gas water heater is the difference in the amount of heat produced per unit of time.

    The larger the number of liters, the more it can meet the demand for high-flow hot water. The average household has no special requirements for the flow of hot water, 10 liters and 12 liters are enough. In order to meet the needs of different customers, and sometimes for product differentiation, manufacturers produce various liter water heaters, and even water heaters with variable temperature and zero cold water.

    1.Kitchen and bathroom sharing a gas water heater is very common in most homes and is a reasonable way to do so. In the early stage of hydropower transformation, it is necessary to arrange the hot water pipes in the kitchen and bathroom in advance, and after the installation of gas water heaters in the later stage, the hot water can be drawn to the kitchen and bathroom.

    Gas water heaters are used in the kitchen and bathroom, and hot water pipes are arranged to lead to the water points in the kitchen and bathroom. In fact, this arrangement is very reasonable, so that it can meet the water needs of the kitchen and bathroom.

    2.Gas water heaters are installed in the kitchen. The kitchen doesn't use too much water and the hot water pipe is short.

    The gas water heater was totally adequate. On the contrary, the greater the amount and flow of hot water in the bathroom, the better the effect of bathing, which has certain requirements for gas water heaters. If the number of liters is too low, it means that the water should not be turned too high, or the water temperature should be appropriately high.

    In addition, there is a certain distance between the toilet and the gas water heater, and it takes a certain amount of time for the hot water to be delivered to the bathroom. Especially in winter, the water pipes are cold, and the hot water flows through the supercooled pipes, which consumes a certain amount of heat and makes us feel that the hot water is not enough.

    3.A gas water heater is more friendly to the kitchen and bathroom at home, but if the kitchen and bathroom are too far away and the connected water pipe is particularly long, the hot water needs to pass through a long pipe to reach the hot water point. In this transfer process, the heat is dissipated and the heated hot water becomes lukewarm.

    If two water heaters are used at the same time, competing with each other, the water distribution is uneven. The kitchen near the kitchen must have an advantage, and the amount of water is naturally much larger. The above is the answer to the question of is it okay to use a gas water heater in the kitchen and bathroom, and what do you think.

    OK. This can reduce waste, and there are no special requirements for the flow rate of hot water in the average household, generally twelve liters is enough. Fully meet the needs of customers.

    OK. This is because the power of the gas water heater is very suitable, and then the efficiency is also very high, which can ** hot water in the kitchen and bathroom, which is also very convenient.

    In general, yes. But if you have a large home and the distance between the kitchen and bathroom is very long, you should use two water heaters. In this way, the happiness of life can be improved.

    I advise against it; If you use the same gas water heater, the power will be too high, and if the gas water heater is broken, you can't use both places in the future.

    Your question is actually a matter of choosing the functions of these three types of water heaters, first of all, let's talk about a gas water heater in your kitchen and bathroom.

    Can? Of course, the starting point of this question is because you are worried that it is inconvenient to use a gas water heater in the bathroom, right? Here you have to consider that your bathroom is not far from the kitchen, because your gas water heater is installed in the kitchen, in the winter if the bathroom is far away, it will take a while to turn on the hot water before the hot water comes out, but this problem has now been well solved by installing a return water device.

    So now just consider that your bathroom is to choose to install an electric water heater.

    Or use the gas heater in the kitchen? Here is a direction for you to choose, if your bathroom is equipped with a bathtub, it is recommended that you use a gas water heater, if you do not have a bathtub, you can consider installing an electric water heater on the premise that there is space in the bathroom. Because the gas water heater is not worried about the problem of water consumption when it is used, there is a bathtub or a gas water heater, and the bathroom is equipped with an electric heater to stay in the early stage of hydropower construction to reduce the workload of water pipes, and it can also save the time for hot water in winter, and the water is convenient.

    If you choose to install a gas water heater, it is recommended that you install a small kitchen in the bathroom and kitchen, so that you don't need to start the gas heater frequently when you use a small amount of hot water in winter. If you choose to install an electric water heater in the bathroom, there is no need to install a small kitchen treasure, you can install one in the kitchen. The above mentioned electric water heaters refer to storage electric water heaters, not direct heating electric water heaters, and it is not recommended to use direct heating electric water heaters at home.

    You can share a gas water heater, because the gas is generally more in the kitchen, so the water heater is usually installed in the kitchen, so that the hot water in the kitchen is basically hot, and the cold water does not flow out much, which is very convenient, if you want to share it with the bathroom, you only need to add another hot water pipe to the bathroom, and the water heater capacity should be larger, so that the amount of hot water used in two places at the same time is more sufficient, and now most families are arranged like this, although rest assured.

    The recommendation is to install into the kitchen, if it is a gas water heater.

    That must be installed in the kitchen, and other water heaters are subject to availability. It cannot be installed in the bathroom, because in the bathroom, due to the lack of air circulation, it causes lack of oxygen, insufficient combustion, and carbon monoxide in the flue gas.

    It can poison people and even die. If you have to install it in the bathroom, you are very particular.

    Let's talk about the installation locations of various water heaters:

    1. Electric water heater.

    Installed in the bathroom.

    1. If it is installed in the same area as the shower area, it generally needs to be separated by a certain distance, and it is recommended that the electric water heater in the small bathroom be installed in the toilet far away.

    Above. 2. If the bathroom is made of a suspended ceiling, the electric water heater can also be installed on the ceiling, which is more beautiful, and the only disadvantage is that it is inconvenient to maintain problems in the future.

    Second, the installation of gas water heaters.

    Gas water heaters are installed in the kitchen. Gas water heaters are recommended to be installed in the kitchen or in a well-ventilated place, why can't they be installed in the bathroom? Because in the bathroom, due to the lack of air circulation, resulting in lack of oxygen and insufficient combustion, the carbon monoxide in the smoke can poison people and even die.

    3. Installation of air energy water heater.

    Air energy water heaters also have certain requirements for installation location. The preferred location is the balcony, which has a large space and does not have any obstruction, which will not affect the operation of air energy during use.

    Secondly, if it is a rural house, it can also be installed on the terrace, as long as there is no shelter around it, and the space is relatively large. Due to the limitations of some houses, many consumers may install it on a suspended platform, and at this time, we must pay attention to the firmness of the platform as much as possible.

    In addition, there is an instrument control panel in the air energy water heater, and its main role is to control the working operation of air energy, but most of the current air energy is fully automated. Therefore, when we install the dashboard, we can choose to be in a hidden position, not outdoors, and we must ensure that the dashboard is dry, avoid moisture and rain, etc.

    4. Solar water heaters.

    Installed on rooftops or balconies.

    In the case of villas or low-rise houses, solar water heaters are generally installed on the roof. But for city dwellers.

    Now there is a wall-mounted pressure solar water heater, which is generally installed on the balcony.

    The installation of solar water heaters is very particular, and the location is not a place for residents' activities, and the installation site meets the product requirements.

    Since the water tank and the collector are separated, the collector can be "embedded" in the balcony, wall and other sunny places, and the water tank can be placed in the kitchen, bathroom, etc. as needed. The closer the water tank is to the water outlet point, the better, which not only saves water, but also greatly improves the utilization rate of hot water.

    Gas water heaters are suitable for installation in the kitchen;

    However, it is necessary to be far higher than the stove and other heat sources in the kitchen, at least more than 20cm from the stove, and install exhaust fans to maintain air circulation in the kitchen, and use strong exhaust pipes to directly exclude the exhaust gas outside.

    Gas water heaters can only be installed outdoors, in well-ventilated kitchens or non-residential rooms on verandahs and balconies, but it is strictly forbidden to install them in bedrooms, basements, bathrooms (except for bathroom water heaters), near ladders and safety exits, storage of flammable and explosive materials, rooms with corrosive media, wires and electrical equipment.

    Yes, and the operation is very simple, it is still the conventional left hot and right cold, but the cold water inlet of the gas water heater is in the kitchen, and the water outlet is connected to the general hot water pipe, so that the hot water pipe in the whole room has hot water, but remember that there is a switch between the solar hot water and the gas water heater to facilitate the switching of the hot water that comes out.

    You can choose to install a natural gas water heater with a relatively large capacity, and then the water pipe is diverted, but it should be noted that the pressure of the water pressure should be sufficient, and the water pressure cannot reach the situation that the hot water cannot come out. Also pay attention to the frequency of use, if two bathrooms and kitchens use hot water at the same time, it is likely to cause insufficient water pressure, and in some places the hot water flow will be very small, or even no hot water.
