Veesoojendit

Veesoojendit, also known as water heaters, are devices used to heat water for domestic, commercial, or industrial purposes. They typically function by transferring heat from a source to water. Common heat sources include electricity, natural gas, propane, or solar energy. The heated water is then stored in a tank or circulated on demand.

There are several types of veesoojendit. Tank-style water heaters store a large volume of hot water, ensuring a readily available supply. Tankless water heaters, on the other hand, heat water as it flows through the device, providing hot water continuously but with a potential limit on the flow rate. Solar water heaters utilize solar collectors to absorb sunlight and heat water, often supplemented by a conventional system for cloudy days or high demand. Geothermal water heaters leverage the stable temperature of the earth to heat water.

The efficiency of a veesoojendit is measured by its Energy Factor (EF) or Uniform Energy Factor (UEF), indicating how much energy is used to heat a specific amount of water. Maintenance, such as regular flushing to remove sediment and checking for leaks, is important for optimal performance and longevity of the device. Safety features, like temperature and pressure relief valves, are crucial to prevent potential hazards.
