Instant Electric Showers

[jackbenson]

Hi,

from London originally. in the UK its common to get an instant electric shower that is rated between 7kw to 10.5kw that will heat the cold water instantly.

they don't seem to be available in America unless you get a dodgy Chinese import from Amazon.



do you know why?

thanks

jack

Primarily, just the evolutionary nature of dwelling hot water systems in this country, with previously abundant energy resources at low cost.
So, supplying the whole dwelling with hot water from one source made sense.
The gold standard for new construction is now insulated recirculation loop with push button or motion sensor pump activation.
