The best element to use is a 3 phase electric heater that has a guard over the element protecting you from brushing against the hot part and stopping the element from starting a fire if the heater is pushed element down onto the floor
An electric water heater in a hot tank is called an immersion heater and many of those run at 3 kW with a thermostat to control the max temperature. Power showers use a type of water heater that heats the water at the point where it is used, without a tank. They run at 6-8 kW and are also controlled by a thermostat.
When you switch on the electric heater, electricity passes through the water in the bucket for warming.If any one comes in contact with the water when the switch is on, he/she is supposed to get electric shock. Nonsense! There are electric heater resistance elements in the water. No electricity is intentionally introduced to the water, if there were the water would be electrified throughout the piping network all the way back to the source including every house connected to the system. Before it ever got that far out of hand the circuit breaker would trip due to the direct short circuit eliminating the hazard. It sounds more like you have an element starting to fail and/or a grounding issue.[
11,000 watts will run a LOT of things. It MAY run an entire house- depending on the power used by the house. IF the house has electric heat, a deep well pump and electric water heater, maybe not. Gas heat, gas water heater, no well pump, probably yes. You need to add up the wattage used by all systems, add 50% to things that have a starting current (large motors like pumps or heat pumps) and see what you total usage is.
a stove, if it's not electric water heater, if it's not electric
Not much actually,a Mobile Home water Heater has the water connections going into the side where as a Regular Water Heater has the connections at the top. So if you have enough room above a mobile home water heater you can install a regular water heater no problem.However a lot of mobile homes do not have room above the water heater so your forced to use a Mobile Home water heater instead. Which usually costs about a hundred more than a regular one.
its tungsten...
Not enough info. Car heater? House heater? Gas? electric? Water?
Your electric heater may be blowing cold air due to issues such as a malfunctioning thermostat, a clogged air filter, or a problem with the heating element. It is recommended to check these components and seek professional help if needed to resolve the issue.
Probably not since it was not designed to do that. You can buy a very inexpensive electric heater that will do a better job for about $40.
There could be several reasons why there is no hot water in your house despite having an electric water heater. Some possible reasons include a tripped circuit breaker, a faulty heating element, a malfunctioning thermostat, or a problem with the power supply to the water heater. It is recommended to check these potential issues or contact a professional plumber to diagnose and fix the problem.
An electric room heater may be used to heat a room when it is cold, they are commonly used in the winter. An electric room heater may also be used to discharge the heat outside and keep the house cool.
Not if it was disconnected properly
An electric wall heater is the perfect solution for houses in areas that have mild winters. The heater will provide heat for the rooms around it, and it should be installed on a wall that is central to the whole house. Electric wall heaters have some good features and some bad features. Targeted Heat Usually an electric wall heater is a panel that runs from just below the ceiling to just above the floor. It radiates heat to all of the air that directly surrounds it. If you need to heat a three bedroom house, an electric wall heater may not have the strength to reach every room. If your house or apartment is smaller, however, an electric wall heater may be just what you need to keep a couple of the bedrooms and the bathroom warm. Where you place the heater will have a definite impact on how well it heats your rooms. Uses Less Electricity than Central Heating Central heating is designed to heat your entire house. It uses the thermostat to determine when to turn off and on, and it pushes warm air into every room through a ducting system. An electric wall heater doesn’t attempt to warm the entire house. It only warms the air in a radius around the heater. Heating is more immediate with an electric wall heater, so you don’t have to wait hours for it to heat the room. Since you have tighter control over when an electric wall heater is off or on, the heater consumes less electricity and delivers targeted heat when you need it. Easy to Control An electric wall heater is a very straightforward device. When the house is cold, all you have to do is turn it on. The room will start to get warmer immediately. When a room is too warm, all you have to do is turn off the wall heater and the room will begin to cool immediately. The air around an electric wall heater is not pushed around the room, so it remains warmer than if it were blowing through a vent. Electric wall heaters become very hot when they are in use, so keep children a safe distance away from the heater.
It is just an electric heater. The only savings comes from keeping the rest of the house really chilly, and using the "Amish heater" to electrically warm a small area.

Home heater systems can be both gas and electric. The most common options are a fake fireplace, a portable space heater or just a plain old heater routed throughout the house.
