Storage Tanks
Bulky storage heaters use gas, electricity, solar energy sources or a combination of them.
The amount of hot water available is restricted by the size of the storage tank capacity. Once the hot water has run out, the unit will require some time to heat the cold water which replenished

The pressure of the water is usually equal to the cold water pressure.
Some heaters have restricted pressure to reduce the pressures on the system giving the tank a longer life. The reduced pressure is not noticeable in properties containing flow restrictions in the
tapware.
