There isn't any difference between them. Just how they are installed and where they are located is a bit different and it varies from 🏡 to 🏡 it also varies from unit to unit
If I was to use a tankless hot water heater as a strictly closed loop with a circulating pump, when the water gets to the thermostats setting would it stop heating until the water temperature come back down or does it continue to heat the entire time water flows through it? I’m trying to make a heated chicken perch for the winter. So the water will be constantly flowing through a 1 1/2 pipe. And then going back to heater. I just don’t know if electric/gas point of use water heaters have some kind of flow sensor that tells it to turn on any time water is moving. I just want low constant temperature. Would this work? Or do you know?
Oh boy. I love my chickens so this is a cool idea. Just curious. Would this be a dedicated unit for this purpose or would you do a loop from the house unit to the chickens? Btw, there are cheap electric mat options you can buy online, specifically designed for chickens.
@@cleanairheatingcooling4105 It’ll be a dedicated water heater just to the chickens. I’m completely off grid and always looking for ways to save power. I was gonna use a propane water heater because I already have a 1000 gallon tank. I could try an electric one depending on how energy efficient it is.
@@LeftyCrusher9000 so it depends on which unit you're using and if the thermostat control is internal of the unit or if it's an external device you're installing. I could answer your question in more detail if I know exactly which items you're working with
