Question:

Has the electric water heater been plugged in all the time?

The new brand electric water heater we bought in our house. The instruction manual is missing. I don't know how to use it. I'm good at the electric water heater. Secondly, the electricity problem is not clear, it is 24 hours a day to plug in good, or unplug after use?I hope that 24 hours of good electricity, so that the use of convenience, hygiene, washing cloth, washing dishes, bath is convenient. (kitchen sink with hot water from the water heater is connected with the past) but the electric water heater has a "electric tiger" said a month down do not know how much electricity consumption.If you unplug it, it's inconvenient. You should insert it before you use it. You can't use it immediately, especially second days to rush to work. There is no hot water to freshen up. ]

Answer:

In a word, it is better to unplug than always, not only to save electricity, but also to protect electric water heaters. Electrical appliances and people like to "rest", otherwise, it will inevitably cause "strain""
In general, the electric water heater has more power to plug than to plug it only during use. Because the electric water heater is heating only when it is in use, it is kept warm when you don't use it. The temperature is kept at about 40 degrees. So even if you don't use it, it's heating too, just not so hot. In addition, when you take a shower, you can not unplug the plug, and now the water heater generally has the function of leakage protection. However, the installation must also require professionals to install, so as not to cause unnecessary consequences.
Specific depends on the amount of hot water and the use of frequency and season temperature. If the use of high frequency, high water consumption, can maintain the ohmic heating and heat preservation, so more power; but if the low frequency of use, water use is not very big, should advance the ohmic heating, when the water temperature reaches the requirements after the current is switched off, so more power. If the water heater has a temperature adjustment function, adjust the water temperature to the proper temperature according to the use. Summer general electric 15-25 minutes can take a bath with.
