The smart home trend is now influencing the selection of household appliances that emphasize energy efficiency without sacrificing comfort. One of the appliances currently eyed by consumers is the low-wattage electric water heater, considered a practical solution for hot water needs in homes with limited electrical capacity.
Responding to this market demand, several home appliance manufacturers, including Modena, have begun highlighting innovative water heaters that integrate energy-saving technology with robust safety features. Teddy Wijaya, Vice President of Marketing at Modena, mentioned that flexibility in capacity and technology is the key factor for modern families in choosing the right device.
The conventional belief that electric water heaters always consume massive amounts of power is now shifting, thanks to storage system technology equipped with automatic thermostats. This mechanism allows the device to keep the water temperature stable once the initial heating process is complete, significantly reducing energy consumption. With capacities ranging from 10 to 30 liters, these devices can now operate with low power consumption starting from 200 watts.
Furthermore, the integration of digital technology gives users complete control. Through mobile applications, such as the Modena Seamless App, homeowners can schedule heating times, monitor electricity consumption in real-time, and even operate the device remotely. Using this scheduling system ensures the water heater is only active when needed, making it a much more economical choice compared to conventional models that must remain on at all times.
