Recapitulating on the most crucial aspects of buying a water geyser -

• STORAGE TANK CAPACITY

• For individual use, one would have one’s needs met by a water geyser that has a tank capacity of 1–5 litres. Geysers available in such capacities of storage tank are also called instant geysers. 

• For a family consisting of two-three members, it would be wise to opt for a geyser with storage tank capacity of 6 litres.  

• When four-five family members are to use the hot water obtained from water geyser, one would require a water geyser that has at least 10 litres of storage capacity, preferably 15 litres. 

• If more than five members are to use the water geyser, a 25 litres tank capacity water geyser would make for a decent choice.

• COST CUTTING TECHNIQUES

It is imperative to be aware of the ways in which some manufacturers resort to cutting production costs in order to maximize profits and in turn deliver a sub-standard product to the customers, the components of which have a very short shelf life and may require frequent repairs/replacements.

• Substandard Water Storage Tank. Storage tank is one of the most crucial components of a geyser as it is responsible for storing the hot water and maintaining its temperature. For its paramount importance, it accounts for almost 40% of the entire cost of the geyser. So, in order to save production costs and to maximize profits, some brands resort to making use of of substandard, inferior-grade metals in the fabrication of the storage tank which catches rusts and corrosion in just a season or two. Eventually small holes develop in the storage tank from which water leaks out, and in worst cases the tank collapses altogether. In order for the geyser to serve its purpose well, the storage tank must be built out of structurally strong, resilient materials such as Stainless/Titanium steel or some other equally durable metal. Using such inert materials in the construction ensure that saline or hard water does not react with the walls of the storage tank and the geyser well stands the test of time, thereby providing a great value for one’s money spent.

• Material used in the fabrication of heating element. Heating element is one of the most crucial components of a geyser as it is responsible for raising the temperature of water and hence accounts for almost 40% of the entire cost of the appliance. So, to cut costs and increase profits, some brands resort to making use of ceramic coated heating element in the geysers they manufacture. Such heating element is relatively cheaper to produce which facilitates the manufacturer to lure customers citing low prices of the product. However, in reality, ceramic coated heating elements are highly non-durable and are prone to rapid corrosion. Such geysers require replacement of the heating element every season or two. Rather, one should ensure that the geyser one opts for has a glass-lined/copper heating element.
