Hot water tanks and water heaters

A water heater, or water heater, is a device installed on a boat that heats and stores water for various uses. A water heater is a useful convenience on boats where there is a need for warm water, for example for showering, washing hands, cleaning dishes or other general water use. Check out our selection!

Hot water tank operation

A water heater uses the boat's energy system to heat the water and stores the warm water in an insulated water heater. There are two main types of operating principles:

  1. Utilization of engine waste heat:

    • The heating system of the hot water tank is connected to the boat's engine cooling system. The waste heat produced by the engine is transferred to the tank and heats the water.

    • An energy-efficient solution that utilizes existing waste heat.

  2. Electric heating:

    • The water heater may contain an electric resistance that heats the water. The electric resistance works, for example, when connected to shore power in a port or via an inverter from a battery.

    • Electrical operation is often used to supplement the heat generated by the engine.

Benefits of a boat water heater

A boat water heater is a popular piece of equipment, especially on longer voyages or when the boat is used as living space. A water heater increases comfort, efficiency and energy efficiency when boating.

Improved comfort

  • A hot water heater always provides ready hot water for showering, washing hands and other needs, making boating much more pleasant.

  • Long boat trips and houseboats benefit from the hygiene and living comfort brought by warm water, especially in cool weather.

Energy saving

  • The water heater utilizes the waste heat from the boat's engine to heat the water. Using waste heat reduces the need for separate electric heaters and other energy sources, saving the boat's energy resources.

  • Energy efficiency is particularly emphasized in regular engine use.

Continuous availability

  • The insulated water heater keeps the water warm for several hours regardless of the heating system's activity, allowing you to use hot water even when the engine is off.

  • Continuous operational readiness improves the boat's usability, especially during overnight stays and other long stops.

A water heater improves the comfort and practicality of boating. A water heater provides hot water for showering, washing and cleaning, energy-efficiently and for a long time.

Choosing a boat water heater

Choosing the right water heater is based on the boat's space, water usage needs, and energy source in use. Below you will find the key factors to consider when choosing a heater.

Capacity

  • The capacity of a boat's hot water heater is selected based on the amount of water use and the number of users.

Heating method

  • Utilization of engine waste heat:

    • The accumulator is connected to the boat's engine cooling system. The heat generated by the engine is transferred to the water heater tank.

    • An energy-efficient way to heat water - utilizes the thermal energy already produced.

    • Particularly suitable for active boating where the engine is used regularly.

  • Electric heating:

    • The electric heater installed in the water heater heats the water using shore power or the boat's batteries.

    • A good option in ports with shore power or on boats where the engine is rarely used.

  • Combination activity:

    • Many accumulators have features based on both engine waste heat utilization and electrical heating.

Structure

  • The design of a water heater affects its energy efficiency and compatibility with the boat.

    • Insulation: A well-insulated water heater will maintain the heat of the water for several hours without additional heating. Long heating capacity is important for energy savings and comfort.

    • Compact size: Space is often limited on boats, and the tank needs to be space-saving and easy to install. Rounded or low-profile designs can fit into tight spaces better than large, rectangular tanks.

Materials

  • Boat water heaters must withstand marine conditions such as humidity, salt water and vibration.

    • Stainless steel: The most popular material for boat water heaters due to its corrosion resistance and longevity.

    • Anodized aluminum: A lightweight option, but may be more susceptible to corrosion in salt water.

    • Plastic parts: Some chargers use reinforced plastic parts, but their durability may not be as good as metal chargers.

Installation

  • Installing a water heater can be challenging due to the limited space on your boat. Choose a model that is easy to install into your boat's existing system.

    • Space requirements: Measure the location of the water heater. Ensure there is sufficient space and the possibility of the necessary connections.

    • Pipeline connection: It is good to be able to connect the water heater to the existing water system without major changes.

    • Power source: If the water heater has electric heating, make sure the boat's electrical system supports the required voltage (12 V, 24 V or shore power 230 V).

The choice of water heater depends on the water usage needs, the boat's spaces and the energy system. Capacity, heating method, construction, materials and installability are key factors to consider. The right water heater will increase comfort, save energy and last a long time even in challenging boating conditions.

Is a boat's hot water heater different from a residential one?

A boat water heater differs from a residential water heater, especially in terms of space, heating methods and operating conditions. A boat water heater is usually considerably smaller, as the limited space on a boat requires a compact design. Typically, boat water heaters have a capacity of 15–50 liters, while residential water heaters are larger, 100–300 liters, which serve the water needs of the entire household.

In terms of heating methods, boat water heaters often utilize waste heat from the engine cooling system to heat the water, making them energy-efficient solutions on the water. An electric heater can serve as an alternative solution or additional heating source, especially in ports when using shore power. Residential water heaters, on the other hand, usually heat the water with electricity, district heating or solar energy, as they do not have the ability to utilize external waste heat.

In terms of materials, boat water heaters are manufactured with marine conditions in mind. Stainless steel and other corrosion-resistant materials are typical material choices due to their resistance to salt water, moisture, and vibration. Residential water heaters usually use enamel-coated steel, as they do not need to withstand salt water or movement.

A boat's water heater must operate under vibration, tilt, and temperature fluctuations, and their use is often seasonal or temporary. Residential water heaters, on the other hand, are designed for continuous, daily use in a stable environment.
