Electric water heater uses electricity as energy to heat, which is one of the three major water heaters alongside gas water heater and solar water heater. According to the heating power, electric water heaters can be divided into three types: storage type (also called volume type or heat storage type), namely hot type and fast heating type (also called semi-storage type). Although the common quick-heating electric water heater and dual-mode electric water heater are similar in size, their internal structures are quite different. Compared with the water storage electric water heater, the quick-heating electric water heater is only smaller in size and more powerful.
