Once this happens, hot water is automatically stored in the tank. It's ready for use when the faucet turns on. The tankless POU heater is another type. This heater uses cold water to heat the heating element. POU water heaters will be installed at the source. This means that they can be placed anywhere in your house where hot water is needed. A common application is in your shower. It makes a significant difference if your shower is distant from your central water heater. You won't have the time to wait around for the water heater to heat up every morning if you are in a hurry to get to work.

The one thing I don’t like about the design is its limited 120-degree swivel compared to the usual 360-degree from other pullouts. It can be a dealbreaker, depending on where you’re planning to install it. If there’s a back wall, the extra 140-degree is unnecessary. But if the faucet is to be put on a kitchen island, you might want the full 360-degree.

The faucet also features Touch2O Technology, allowing you to operate the faucet by tapping anywhere with the back of your hand or your wrist. The water automatically shuts off after four minutes, and the spray wand has a magnet embedded in the spout that docks the wand into place and prevents drooping over time.

The first thing I want to point out is the installation. It’s quite clear that the faucet requires 4 holes (3 if you exclude the sprayer). If you’re already familiar with faucets, such remark might seem redundant. But for the new faces in the game, you have to take the mounting holes on the sink/countertop into account before buying a new kitchen faucet.
