Suited to rooms with limited height or an unusual layout, where more flexible mounting matters.
Compact water heaters
Smaller-capacity models for the kitchen, a small bathroom, a summer cottage or a local supply point.
Large-capacity water heaters
Higher-volume models suited to families, greater consumption and situations that call for a larger reserve of hot water.
Models with mechanical controls
A simple, dependable choice for anyone who wants straightforward temperature adjustment without complicated functions.
Models with electronic controls
More convenient temperature control, more precise settings and a more modern day-to-day experience.
Water heaters with a dry heating element
A design that in many cases helps reduce the effect of limescale and makes maintenance easier over the long term.
Energy-efficient water heaters
Models with better insulation and more efficient operation help reduce everyday electricity consumption.
How to choose an electric water heater
- Capacity — compact models suit lower consumption, while families more often choose a larger volume.
- Mounting type — vertical or horizontal positioning depending on the layout of the room.
- Power — affects how quickly the water heats up and overall convenience in use.
- Type of controls — mechanical or electronic, depending on how much control you want.
- Tank and heating element design — important for longevity, maintenance and resistance to limescale.
- Dimensions — important if the heater has to fit into a small bathroom, an alcove or a utility room.
- Energy efficiency and insulation — affects your day-to-day electricity costs.
- Safety systems — overheating protection, a safety valve and other features for safer operation.
What capacity suits everyday use?
The volume of an electric water heater should match the number of people and your water consumption habits. Smaller-capacity models are often right for a single basin or light use, while larger heaters suit bathrooms, showers and families where hot water is used regularly and in greater quantity.
Mechanical or electronic controls?
Mechanical controls are usually simpler and easier to live with, while electronic controls allow more precise temperature adjustment and can make everyday use more convenient. The choice comes down to whether you value simplicity or greater control.
What difference does the heating element make?
Some electric water heaters use a classic heating element, others a dry heating element. This difference can affect maintenance, limescale build-up and long-term convenience. When choosing a model it is worth looking not only at capacity but also at the internal construction and the protection features.
What determines the price of a water heater?
The price of an electric water heater depends on its capacity, power, type of controls, tank materials, heating element design, energy efficiency and additional functions. More compact and simpler models are generally more affordable, while larger or better-equipped heaters offer more convenience, more precise control and wider possibilities in use.

Frequently asked questions
How do I choose the right electric water heater?
When choosing an electric water heater, it is important to consider the capacity, the power, the mounting type, the type of controls and the space available for installation. It is also worth assessing your household's water consumption habits and how much convenience you want in use.
What capacity should I choose for a flat or a house?
A more compact model may be enough for light use, while families or higher hot-water consumption usually call for a larger capacity. The right volume depends on the number of users and how intensively water is used.
Is a horizontal or a vertical water heater better?
Both can work well — the choice depends mainly on the layout of the room and the installation options. Vertical models are very common, while horizontal ones are useful in rooms with limited height.
Is a water heater with a dry heating element more practical?
In many cases, yes. This design can help reduce the effect of limescale on the heating element and make maintenance easier over the long term, though the right choice depends on the model and the conditions of use.
