    Natural gas water heaters are relatively more cost-effective, convenient and convenient, can also be used and washed, there is no time limit, the comfort is the best, suitable for every region in the north and south. However, it is relatively high, so it must be installed outside the shower, and it is convenient to pull the exhaust pipe to the outside, and it should be used frequently, if it is not needed for a long time, it is easy to have common failures. Household water heaters are divided into two types: storage type and instantaneous type, the application of water storage type must be electrified in advance, and the boiling water is limited by the volume size, which is not suitable for the application in North China, because the tap water quality in North China is hard, it is easy to produce dirt, and it is necessary to carry out the scale cleaning work regularly, otherwise it can not be used normally, and the use period is endangered.

    The natural environment temperature in North China is very low in winter, the temperature of drinking water is also very low, the electric water heater is powered on for a long time, the electricity consumption is very large, and the power supply time of boiling water is limited, which endangers the actual effect of bathing and the comfort is weak. The instantaneous output power is very large, and the specifications of the watt-hour meter and switching power cord are very high, and the water flow is relatively small, and the comfort is weak. In the process of using household water heaters, it takes time to carry out heating, and it consumes electricity under temperature control.

    And there are potential safety hazards in the process of use, just looking at the cost-effective, if you get natural gas, I will not choose a household water heater.

    In the process of using natural gas water heaters, it is necessary to solve the problem of exhaust pipes, and it is unlikely to be immediately discharged in the room, and the natural gas water heater is supplied with power immediately, without waiting for all kinds of heating, and all kinds of constant temperature and constant pressure technology are also more timely, after all, natural gas is an immediate water output, so the ambient temperature is generally set to control the temperature, or cooperate with each other with a constant temperature faucet to achieve a comfortable shower room, natural gas water heater should choose an active strong discharge, pay attention to regular maintenance of pipelines, The separation of water and electricity from air energy heat pump is very safe, and the domestic water heater has an electric wall, and the safety factor is also very good.

    The natural gas water heater occupies a small total area, and it is enough to hang the wall to leave the exhaust outlet and its power socket, and select the corresponding volume according to the water output point at home. Domestic water heaters and air energy heat pumps are generally placed in areas such as balconies.

    1. Advantages of gas water heater: gas water heater is suitable for installation in the kitchen, not only can it supply water to the kitchen faucet, but also can be used in the bathroom through the wall water pipe, and it can continue to provide hot water. Moreover, because the gas water heater is smaller than the electric water heater, it will not take up too much space when installing, and for small families, installing a gas water heater can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

    2. Disadvantages of gas water heater: gas water heater heats the heat pipe in the water heater through the combustion of gas, and indirectly transfers heat to the water in the heat pipe. Because gas does not burn 100 percent, and the heat energy obtained by heat pipes is only a part of it.

    3. Advantages of electric water heater: As has been introduced just now, the thermal efficiency of the electric water heater is almost 100, which is thanks to the heating method of the electric water heater, which is generally heated by the electric heating rod, and the water is in direct contact with the electric heating rod.

    4. Disadvantages of electric water heaters: Although the thermal efficiency of electric water heaters is almost 100, it is not unexpected.

    From the perspective of the electricity consumed by electric water heaters and gas water heaters, 80 liters of electric water heaters consume electricity per day, which costs about 10 yuan a day. In winter, the temperature is low, and it may cost about 20 yuan; The 12-liter gas water heater consumes about one square meter per hour, and the gas ** is now one cubic meter, and people use it for about 2 hours a day, and the cost is about yuan. But in reality, gas water heaters are not likely to last for 2 hours, so gas water heaters cost less.

    Judging from the simplicity of electric water heaters and stupid slag gas water heaters for bathing, the capacity of electric water heaters is fixed, and there will be insufficient bathing water if there are more people, and people need to wait for a period of time before they can use it. The gas water heater can have hot water for 24 hours, and the only thing you need to wait for is a few seconds of cold water when the water heater is turned on.

    Judging from the scale generated by electric water heaters and gas water heaters in the combustion chamber, electric water heaters will produce a lot of scale, which will slow down their heating, and even make the heating pipe leak due to excessive corrosion, which is very dangerous. Therefore, it is troublesome to clean the dirt on the inner wall of the electric water heater, and it is also troublesome to maintain. The gas water heater is heated immediately and the water output is large, which produces less scale, simple cleaning and easy maintenance.

    From the perspective of the safety of electric water heaters and gas water heaters, electric water heaters use electricity to heat water temperature, and there is a hidden danger of leakage; Gas water heaters burn gas, and carbon monoxide is produced when it is not burned sufficiently, which can cause people to be poisoned and there is a risk of poisoning.

Gas water heaters heat up quickly and have a temperature adjustment device, so as long as they are adjusted to a comfortable temperature when they are first used, the hot water will always be at this temperature in the future. The electric water heater is a volumetric type, after heating a tank of water, due to the high temperature (generally about 80) when it is first used, it is necessary to use cold water to eject the heated water, and at the same time to mix a part of the cold water. In the process of ejection, the water temperature is high at the beginning, and the water temperature will gradually decrease with use, so it is necessary to constantly adjust the ratio of cold and hot water when using. >>>More

Comparison between gas water heater and electric water heater First, from the perspective of hot water production, the general gas water heater has 5 liters, 7 liters, 8 liters, etc., which refers to 50 liters of hot water per minute 5 liters, 7 liters or 8 liters. Whereas electric water heaters are generally marked with 30 to 90 liters. And this number refers to the water capacity of the electric water heater, which is equivalent to adding a kettle to the electric stove, the water multiplication of this kettle is 30 60 liters, take an 8-liter gas water heater and a 40-liter electric water heater compared, the 8-liter gas water heater can continuously produce 8 liters of hot water per minute, and the electric water heater needs to heat a tank of water at intervals of half an hour. >>>More
