need only a mains cold water feed and standard electricity supply. Simple to fit and inexpensive, units like Redring’s TAP1 are ideal as the simplest way to add hot water to a bathroom conversion or utility room.
Stored water heaters Electric stored water heaters remain popular for many commercial applications, providing hot water for hand and dishwashing in kitchens, canteens and staff bathrooms. Whilst slightly less energy efficient than their instantaneous counterparts, stored water units can offer higher volume flow rates over a shorter time period, and those heaters which deliver water to multiple outlets are especially useful to many small businesses’ operations. Ten to 15 litre capacity under-sink heaters delivering water at
temperatures of up to 70°C, such as the Redring TS range, are ideal for a single kitchen sink in a flat or holiday home, or to serve multiple handwash basins in hair salons or nail bars, for example. For larger professional kitchens and commercial canteens, Flatback cisterns with 25 or 50 litre capacities offer multiple outlet functionality and a significant and reliable supply of stored hot water. Stored water systems typically use a standard mains supply and it is important to check the ‘recovery time’ when choosing a model to understand how long the unit will take to get back to temperature once drained.
Water boiling Water boiling units are also providing competition for the ubiquitous kettle in the domestic market, as residential customers become more aware of the convenience, efficiency and space-saving that electric water boiling can deliver. Wall mounted water boilers, such as Redring’s Sensaboil, are highly suited to commercial applications, such as canteens, cafes, restaurant kitchens and commercial catering facilities, where countertop space can be limited. Three to 7.5 litre tanks can deliver over 200 cups of

hot water per hour and over 50 at once, at temperatures of 98°C. Boiling water on demand is increasingly sought after in the domestic
market, with instant boiling water taps proving a real success story in recent years. Redring’s 3 in 1 Instant Boiling Water Tap, which can replace a standard kitchen mixer tap with the addition of an under-sink boiler unit, safely dispenses boiling water for food preparation or beverage making, as well as the usual centrally heated hot and mains cold water.
Sales heat up The electric water heating category is varied, with domestic installations gaining traction alongside the traditionally strong commercial market. A good understanding of the suitability of different water heating units for different applications and the efficiency and convenience benefits of point of use water heating will enable wholesalers to capitalise on
these opportunities.
