To heat up a tankful of cold water will take about an hour initially. Once it's hot, the heaters will automatically come on when temperature drops a bit .
because the power lines are more frozen in winter
As you say you had to reset the circuit breakers, the water heater's heating element may have "died" by shorting to Ground or Earth. This could be the reason why its circuit's breakers tripped to cut off the power. Time to buy a new water heater...? <><><> Typically, you should be able to tell a difference as quick as 15 minutes or so, but it may take well over an hour or two for it to reach "operating temperature". Some electric hot water heaters, you can even hear them as they heat, and you typically can the gas ones. Your biggest variables, assuming you're not using hot water as it heats, is the amount of water that is in the heater, as well as the heating power the heater puts out into the water. Electrics are practically 100% efficient, but gas ones are not even close, but they do operate at higher heater temps and can heat the water faster. <><><> It takes about an hour for a fifty gallon electric water heater to heat up.
In effect it does. Electricity applied to the heater produces heat. Heat applied to the thermocouple produces electricity.
That's going to depend on . . . -- the starting temperature of the water -- the target temperature of the water -- how fast you want it to get there -- the efficiency of the heater you use
It is a gas operated or electric operated appliance used to heat water.
Electric hot water heater is used to heat cold water for use in winters. Electric hot water heaters heat water faster than the ones which consume fire in order to heat water.
depends on the wattage of the elements along with the temp of the cold water but i would guess an hour or two
Anywhere from 6- 35 hours. Lol. No it should take around 2 hours
Usually about an hour.
In a gas water heater: The gas flame warms the water, exactly the same way as a gas stove burner does for a pan of water on the stove. In an electric water heater, an element - same as an electric range element, but a different shape - heats up from electrical current, and transfers that heat to the water.
by fire . an electric heater is a metal, and a metal is a good conductor of heat. so it can produce heat
Not if it was disconnected properly
Around 3 hours
The thermostats sense the heat and turn off and on accordingly.
One of the most energy efficient water heating methods is the heat pump water heater. This method is proven to be two times more efficient over the standard electric water heater.
