With the onset of the cold wave, the temperature drops, the use of hot water in the home has increased dramatically, the electric water heater has become a "big user of electricity", but do not panic, pay attention to these two small details on the use of water heaters, can help you save electricity and money ~
The higher the daily temperature setting, the better?
Many people use electric water heaters at home, for the convenience of water, used to keep the power on for a long time, will not be very power-hungry? How many degrees is the daily temperature setting of the water heater appropriate? The higher the setting, the better?
In fact, the temperature setting of the electric water heater would rather be below than too high! There are two main reasons for this.
1. Repeated heating consumes a lot of electricity
Because when the temperature of the water heater is set, once the cooling temperature reaches a certain range, the water heater will automatically heat up to the set temperature, if you set the maximum temperature of 75 ℃, the temperature difference with the outdoor environment, the faster the cooling temperature, the more frequent the water heater to keep warm, the more electricity consumption.
2、The liner is prone to limescale
In addition, do you know? The higher the temperature setting of the water heater, the easier it is to build up limescale in the inner pot, and limescale will also affect the heating speed and increase electricity consumption.
Suggestions
The electric water heater at home, usually set at about 45~50℃ is fine, it is convenient to wash hands and vegetables, and the temperature will be raised quickly when you need to take a bath.
Reservation function, you really know how to use?
1、The principle of the reservation function
After setting the appointment time and temperature, the water heater will automatically intelligent computing, in the set time to provide the set temperature of hot water, during this period, the water heater is in a non-automatic temperature preservation state, not to keep the temperature naturally will not consume the additional electricity.
2、The correct way to open the appointment function
Our peak hot water usage is usually in the morning and evening, so set the appointment time before going to bed at night, so that you can get up in the morning and have hot water for washing directly; set the appointment time in advance in the afternoon for the evening, so that you can control your life freely.
Moreover, some water heater models have added intelligent functions that can record water habits and predict behavior intelligently based on data, so as to automatically set a reservation for hot water, which can realize electricity saving and eliminate the trouble of manually reserving hot water.
