1. If you don't use hot water frequently (e.g., once every two or three days), the frequency of use of your electric water heater is low. You can turn off the power to your storage-type water heater when it's not in use, and turn it back on an hour before you need to use it. This can save a significant amount of electricity.

2. If you use your electric water heater daily, but the amount of hot water used is not large, turn on the heating function of your storage-type water heater an hour before use, and turn off unnecessary functions at other times. This can also save some electricity.

3. If you use hot water frequently and in large quantities, it is recommended to keep the storage-type water heater on all the time. However, adjusting the hot water temperature according to the frequency of use and the amount of hot water used can also contribute to energy savings.

4. Always fill the tank with cold water before turning on the heating function. Ensure the tap water is always running to keep the tank full. To prevent scalding, open the cold water valve first, then the hot water valve; when turning it off, turn off the hot water valve first, then the cold water valve.

Usage Tips

1. If you don't frequently use hot water for showering, set the water temperature to around 40℃.

2. In areas with peak-valley electricity pricing, heat water at night when electricity prices are lower and use it during the day.

3. Purchase a water heater with inlet and outlet pipes that are good conductors of non-heat (such as PPR all-plastic pipes).

4. Try to buy a product with a timer function to reduce heat loss.

5. If the hot water pipe is longer than 5 meters, insulate the hot water pipes during installation.

6. To reduce hot water loss during regulation, purchase a product with a constant temperature outlet, which is both energy-efficient and comfortable.

7. Install the water heater in a well-insulated space whenever possible.
