instantaneous water heater to run off cold storage tank

[McCarron]

ive been asked to fit a 25 gallon storage tank on top of a cabin and put somesort of water heater inside the cabin that produces some hot water for wahing hands only?!
apparently they need it in there so they are alowed to work on site.

anyway, as i have never done this apart from off mains is there a heater out there that will run off such low pressure? maybe a 7/10 litre storage heater for under/oversink?!

there is no mains near this cabn so they need to top the tank up maually, but they say it will never be used, apart from showing the inspector that its there if necessary?!
cheers ears

Kettle? Always sufficed when I used to go on sites.

unfortunately not good enough....although i suggested the same

There was a vented oversink electric water heater which held about 2-3 litres. It had a glass body with measured graduations showing the volume. It was filled up manually and then heated and had a second tap to a spout pipe over the sink.

In fact I think we still have one somewhere!

i would have thought a small 50lts cylinder would have surficed but would need a level switch involved.
but then again, what about the legonelia issue.

nope without a pump to raise working pressure an oversink heater will just trip out.

Surely a Burco boiler will surfice, mounted above a small hand wash basin.
After all its only for show.

Agreed. What do they use in roadside burger bars?
