Review of the best BOSCH water heaters in 2020

Water heaters are an irreplaceable technique in every home. Despite interruptions in hot water supply or, at all, its absence, thanks to water heaters, there will always be hot water at home.

The range of offered devices is huge. But how to choose the right one, which manufacturers are better?This review will guide you on the price, as well as give a detailed description of the best water heaters from BOSCH.

About BOSCH

The history of the company begins in 1886. Then Robert Bosch founded the workshop for electronics and precision technology. The company had 2 employees, and the initial capital was 10,000 German marks.

The main area of ​​work was the manufacture of electrical equipment, among which were water level alarms and telephones.

Between 1901 and 1923, the company was engaged in the manufacture of ignition systems for magnetoelectric machines, electric hair clippers, refrigerators, car starters, headlights, horns, direction indicators, windshield wipers, car radios and other car equipment.

In 1946 - 1959, after the death of Robert Bosch and the end of the war, the company was revived and began to produce mechanical fuel pumps and a car radio.

Between 1960 and 1989, hydraulic and pneumatic equipment, electronic fuel injection control, anti-lock braking system, electronic diesel engine control, and a navigation system were manufactured.

In 1990 - 2011, the company was engaged in the production of systems such as fuel supply for gasoline engines and driver assistance. Lithium-ion batteries were also manufactured.

The company is now engaged in automation, electrification, as well as industrial, construction and IT technologies. Also BOSCH manufactures consumer goods.

Criteria for choosing water heaters

Types of water heaters

There are 2 types of water heaters: storage and flow.

Cumulative has a water tank in the form of a tank, which not only heats the water to the desired temperature, but also maintains it. From the inside, the tanks are covered with heat-insulating material in order to minimize the operation of the heating element, which, in turn, will save electricity.

The installation of the water heater is quite simple, since the unit operates on a single-phase network at a voltage of 220-230 V.

Storage devices do an excellent job with their work even with a water pressure of 1 atm.

There are 2 ways to connect the storage tank:

1. Pressure - the connection is made directly to the water supply.
2. Free-flow - connection to the water supply is carried out using a pump.

Instantaneous water heater does not have a water tank.Heating occurs instantly, during the passage of water through a flask with a heating element. The flask is housed in a housing that is attached to the mixer.

The water temperature is regulated by decreasing or increasing pressure.

To install instantaneous water heaters with a capacity of up to 8 kW, a single-phase network will be sufficient. But it should be borne in mind that this power will only be enough to obtain warm water.

To install a device with a power higher than 8 kW, you must connect a separate line with a three-phase power supply.

Instantaneous water heaters can also be pressure and non-pressure.

Heating element types

1. Spiral. It consists of an electrical wire with high resistance and is enclosed in an insulating sheath. The spiral is used in electric water heaters. Differs in high efficiency and rapid heating.
2. Tubular an electric heater, aka heating element, consists of a heating thread, which is located in a metal tube. An insulating material is located between the thread and the tube, which has a high thermal conductivity. Despite the lower efficiency and high susceptibility to scale formation, heating elements are distinguished by their durability and low sensitivity to airing.
   There is a "dry" type of heating element, which also consists of a metal tube and a heating thread. The difference is that the design is protected by a special flask, which excludes contact of the heating element with water, and reduces the likelihood of scale formation.
3. Heat exchanger Is a ribbed metal structure. The structure is heated by burning gas in a gas column or indirectly - using the heat generated by the boiler to heat the room.
