Features of a storage water heater

The storage devices are also gas and electric.
Gas-fired heaters are perfect for a private home. They consume gas much less than running water heaters, so they are economical. Devices differ in their stability and ability to work even with poor-quality water. Modern water heaters are equipped with all the necessary sensors to ensure the safe use of the device.
