How Do Home Water Dispensers Heat Up Water

With the quick pace of life these days, it is important to have constant and reliable access to hot water at demand. Home water dispensers are used to provide instant hot water whenever necessary. Coffee, tea, hot chocolate, ramen noodles and instant soups are just one of many drinks and foods you can prepare with hot water. To easily understand how such water dispensers work we have to follow the path of the water from the water supply, through and inside the dispenser, and out your faucet.


Contained initially in a water tank at a normal temperature and possibly treated by a water filter, the water moves into a small tank that is insulated and which contains a small element. The latter is completely unexposed to the outside and has a double function. When the dispenser is turned on, the element is heated up via electricity charge and begins to warm up the water. Once the water reaches boiling point, the heating element is turned off by a thermostat.

When the water temperature drops to about 190 F (around 90 C) and in order to preserve it at that level, the thermostat activates the heating element again. Many water dispensers come with an adjustable thermostat which allows the user to set a desired level of water temperature. The usual range may vary, depending on the model, and is aimed to fit a variety of domestic needs.

From the small tank where the water has been heated up, it goes up into your water supply faucet through a copper tube. Very often, just before the water tap, there is a pressure relief valve right before the tap to allow for the air pressure created by the hot water inside the storage tank to exit the system. That allows for the hot water to expand freely inside the tank and thus prevent the risk of cracks and leaks forming up on the container due to the increase of pressure.

Perhaps the only downside of such enclosed system is that once a part of it becomes damaged, it is difficult next to impossible to do repairs. The best option in such case is to simply replace the whole unit. It is a small sacrifice to make compared to the benefits you receive from such home water dispensers.
