A tankless electric water heater is an improved country washbasin that provides the comfort of country life for little money. From a technical point of view, it is a storage non-pressure boiler, inside of which there is a heating element, and water can be supplied either through an attached hose or manually - with a bucket. For those who have decided to purchase such a useful item, we advise you to read our review of Russian models and the rules for choosing electric washbasins.
1. Alvin EVBO-20/1.
A compact wall-mounted bulk water heater with a 20-liter stainless tank is equipped with a heating element with a power of 1.2 kW. It overcomes the threshold of +60°C in 50 minutes, and you can get acceptable warm water from the tap even faster, especially in summer. Due to the metal two-layer shell, the cost of these models is twice as high as their plastic counterparts, but it is also quite affordable. At the same time, the tank, according to reviews, maintains the water temperature very well, keeping it warm all night.
Also noted are the reliable design of the wall mounts and the modern quarter tap. The built-in automation unit does not allow you to turn on the heating element when the tank is empty. This option appeared in Elvin relatively recently and seems unnecessary, since the water intake hole is initially located above the electric water heater to prevent it from running dry. Among the shortcomings, users sometimes point out a loosely fitting top cover - in such cases, the thermal insulation of the walls practically loses its meaning, but such misunderstandings are rare.
2. Summer resident EVN-30.
A bulk water heater from the manufacturer Mister Heath is an example of an unsuccessful solution, where the gap between the cost and retail price of the device was artificially increased. For the Summer Resident, it would seem that expensive materials are used, which are already worth choosing because of their durability. But the attempt to save as much as possible on manufacturing technology is striking.
The stainless steel body is excellent, especially for an outdoor water heater. However, the too thin walls of the 30-liter model simply blow out when filled. Over and over again, such deformations, multiplied by frequent heating, lead to a natural end - leaks along the seam, which is always a weak point in stainless steel. And here we also used electrode welding, which is absolutely unsuitable in this case. Thermoregulation is clearly not well thought out - the built-in automatic device does not work correctly.
3. Success-N 15.
A small bulk water heater for a summer residence can be selected with a capacity of up to 40 liters, but 15 is enough for an ordinary washbasin. Moreover, an economical heating element of 1250 W is installed here. The stainless steel model has a good set of protections and automatic adjustments:
- prevention of “dry” switching;
- current leakage protection;
- maintaining the set temperature in the range of +20-70 °C;
- Power off when overheated.
An indicator light informs you about the operating mode of the water heater - a small thing, but this is what is often missing in other models for the garden. Owner reviews note the rapid rise in temperature and good thermal insulation of the Success. But the wall mount does not seem reliable, although the net weight of the tank without water is small - only 4 kg.
4. Bulk Alvin EVBO 20/1.25-2.
The steel water heater with shower stands out against the background of similar devices. One of the major innovations is the presence of a 2.3 Ah battery, which provides up to 5 heating cycles without connecting to the network (the light indication of its charging is displayed on the case). The design of the boiler for the dacha also includes a built-in pump. It increases the outlet flow pressure to 2.5 l/min, making bathing more comfortable.
The manufacturer's proposed electric shock protection circuit is a little disconcerting. The shower cannot be used until the water heater plug is unplugged. On the other hand, this is the only effective method for all tank-type water heaters, so it should be adopted by owners of other brands.
5. Elbet EVBO-22.
A bulk water heater for a summer cottage made of plastic is the most budget option, the cost of which does not exceed a thousand rubles. At the same time, in terms of its characteristics, Elbet is in no way inferior to metal devices:
- useful volume – 22 l;
- power of the installed heating element – 1.25 kW;
- maximum heating – +70°С.
The difference in price is due only to the lower cost of the tank material, and even that sometimes turns out to be much more reliable than metal water heaters. The electrical components are standard: the thermostat maintains the set temperature or turns off the bulk boiler when the maximum is reached. Smooth adjustment is provided, although the small rotary knob may not be convenient enough.
What should a buyer consider?
Depending on your family’s habits, you can choose a tankless water heater with a capacity of 10-250 liters. Compact models are easy to fill, you don’t have to wait long, but the small volume is enough just for washing. At the same time, the power of heating elements in bucket tanks is low, which is a decisive factor for dachas with weak wiring. Devices for 10-30 liters always come in a wall-mounted version, so the kit must have the appropriate mounts, or you will have to buy them yourself.
The more spacious the boiler, the more you can do with just one portion of heated water: take a shower for the whole family one at a time, wash a mountain of dishes, and have some left over for laundry. But a simple electric water heater can no longer cope with such a task. For a summer residence with permanent or long-term residence, where you need to create the highest possible level of comfort, you will need a gas bulk boiler or solid fuel titanium.
To save on energy consumption, you should pay attention to the presence of thermal insulation of the tank itself. However, its role is played by the air “pocket” between the double walls of the device. It is better to choose the same design when using the boiler outside the premises. An important role in this is played by the tightly fitted top lid, also made on the principle of a thermos. In addition, it gives additional rigidity to metal tanks, preventing their deformation.
By the way, if you are looking for a floor-mounted filling tank with a heater larger than 50 liters, you will have to turn to foreign-made products. Our factories can only offer “moidodyry”. But the tanks built into them do not differ from wall-mounted ones either in capacity or in installation method. But there are interesting kits on sale, where a shower stall frame and even flooring are supplied along with the water heater. This is where they require your close attention, since due to constant contact with water, unreliable structures will quickly become unusable. Preference should be given to aluminum frames and plank floors, which are easy to replace.
If you are having a summer shower outside, it is better to buy a combined water heater for your dacha. The temperature in the tank will increase due to solar energy, and the built-in heating element will bring it to a comfortable level. This is the most economical option, but it cannot be used indoors, and the operation of such a system is only possible in the warm season.

The “Dachny” water heater is packed in a cardboard box. Package size – 580x155x360 mm, weight – 2.7 kg.
The kit includes the water heater itself with a removable top cover and water tap, a pair of brackets for wall mounting and instructions. The body is made of polypropylene, painted white. It should be especially noted that the “Dachny” tankless water heater can be mounted both on the wall and on most frames washbasins Moydodyr.
Inside the housing there is a tubular electric heater (TEH) made of stainless steel with a power of 1.25 kW and a thermostat mounting pin. A distinctive feature of the Dachny water heater is a partition located inside the body and forming a compartment for removing excess water through a special outlet. Looking at this partition, it is not difficult to guess which product was chosen as the basis when designing the body of the first bulk water heater. The practical benefit of this solution is minimal, and the disadvantage is the following: when the device is operating, water constantly condenses on the inner surface of the top cover, drops of which fall into the compartment and then exit through the hole. But since under the water heater, as a rule, there is a sink or other container for collecting water, this drawback is not significant. On the rear wall there are special bosses for mounting brackets.
The top cover of the water heater with molded stiffening ribs tightly covers the container, keeping it from deforming when heating water.
The electrical part is located in a special compartment on the side and is covered with a removable lid. Since 2005, the Dachny water heater has used a thermostat with the ability to smoothly regulate the temperature. It is also used as a switch. The water heater is connected to the power supply using a molded plug with a grounding contact. This eliminates the risk of electric shock if the electrical wiring in the home is properly installed.
In earlier modifications of the country water heater, a thermostat, an emergency thermal switch and a power switch were used. The thermostat maintained the temperature within 50±5°C. Subsequently, it was decided to abandon bulky components of our own production in favor of reliable products produced on professional equipment. This allowed us to reduce costs and virtually eliminate manufacturing defects.
The heating element of the “Dachny” water heater in the latest modification is lowered as much as possible, but is still located slightly above the level of the drain hole. For this reason, and also due to the absence of an emergency thermal switch, it is strictly prohibited to turn on a tankless water heater without water.
The water tap of the “Dachny” double-acting water heater is made of plastic. This is also the development of a group of engineers from Elterm OJSC. The crane is easily installed on the body without the help of tools; its advantage is its low cost. The use of more expensive metal taps entails the problem of reliable electrical connection of the tap body with the wire protective grounding. The solution to this problem affects the cost of the water heater, and in the absence of such a connection, the water heater will not meet electrical safety requirements and will not receive a certificate of conformity.
We assemble the water heater, install the faucet, and cover it with a lid. When assembled, the dimensions of the Dachny water heater are 560x210x345 mm, weight - 2.2 kg.
Pour water, controlling its volume. If 15 liters are filled, stated in the instructions as the nominal volume, then the water level is approximately 3 cm below the edge of the partition of the overflow compartment. In this case, the body is deformed by approximately 1 cm in width at the top. By covering the case with the top cover, we remove the deformation.
Connect the power cord to electrical network, turn on the water heater. The backlight comes on and the water begins to heat up. We check the operation of the thermostat at the minimum and maximum positions.
We monitor the temperature of the heated water, measuring it using a household multimeter with a remote sensor - a thermocouple. The sensor is placed in the water at the top of the water heater at a depth of about 5 cm, the top cover is closed. Water temperature before heating starts 20°C, water volume 15l, ambient temperature 20°C. The thermostat is in the minimum heating position. The measurement results are presented in the table.
