significant energy and cost savings, and often lowering the amount of plumbing work required. There are advantages for taller buildings,
where point of use water heating offers an alternative to the gas-powered heating systems that may be prohibited. Rental properties can also benefit, as electric point of use water heating negates the need for gas safety certificates and annual gas checks. End-users will see advantages too, as instantaneous point of use water heating is exceptionally convenient and fast, with hot water delivered immediately and on demand.
New water heating options Advances in water heating technology mean there is a vast array of point of use electric options available to suit a variety of applications. One particular area of growth is instant boiling water taps, which are increasingly being used for preparing food and making hot drinks in householders’ kitchens. They deliver cold, hot and boiling water on demand from one neat tap. As well as offering energy and water savings
they save valuable countertop space by eliminating the need for kettles, preventing the energy waste that occurs when overfilled kettles are boiled. Redring’s most recent boiling water tap, the Reditap, offers a water tank with

higher capacity than kettles at two litres, which equates to six full mugs. Another interesting area of product
development is the introduction of instantaneous electric taps that deliver hot water on demand in any location where it’s needed. The newest plug-in electric taps, such as the Redring TAP1 Instant Electric Hot Water Tap, provide effective and highly efficient hand washing facilities with only a cold water and mains electricity supply required. Finally, point of use water heating is
increasingly being adopted for en suite shower rooms with restricted access to stored hot water. Electric showers such as the new Redring Bright have long been popular options but unvented water heaters like the Redring
Powerstream range are also being used to provide hot water on demand to dual basins or a basin and mixer shower from one convenient and space-saving unit, with no need for hot water cylinders or long pipe runs.
Why cold is better than hot The true strength of point of use water heating lies in the movement of cold, rather than hot water, which is fundamentally more efficient. Add in the space-saving benefits, convenience and speed of hot water delivery and it’s easy to see why point of use is becoming more widely adopted. By stocking energy efficient A rated water heating innovations from trusted brands, wholesalers are best placed to take advantage of this trend which is expected to shape the future of water heating in the years ahead. Redring supplies a range of instantaneous point of use water heaters, carrying the highest A class energy efficiency rating.
