The compact and space-saving design of horizontal geysers or water heaters makes them ideal for bathrooms with small spaces or low ceilings.
Bathrooms with low ceilings can benefit from a horizontal geyser. For a large household, the 25-liter horizontal geyser is appropriate. When buying a water heater, you should consider how it uses energy, whether it has a coating, and how well it can handle pressure. If you have a decorative false ceiling in your home, you will notice that it tends to lower the height of your room. Horizontal water heaters are especially useful in such locations. They help you save space and make your bathroom look elegant and luxurious. The ease of installation and maintenance of horizontal geysers is another impressive feature. It is also simpler to have them fixed if necessary.

Difference between vertical and horizontal geysers
Traditionally, geyser water heaters are vertically mounted. Horizontally mounted geysers are new in the market. Only vertical mounting is available for electric instant geysers. The market is devoid of instant horizontal geysers. Because instant geysers take up so little wall space, modifying the mounting method is unnecessary.
Hot water has less consistency, so it tends to increase to the top of the water tank of the geyser. The cold water stays at the bottom. When both types of water mix, there is turbulent and frictional movement when water is forced out of the geyser. This turbulence is less in the vertical geyser model than in the horizontal model. So water is dispersed very quickly in the vertical model.
Apart from that, vertical models are generally considered energy efficient. Most people think this, but only some manufacturers can go beyond this and try to be efficient. Pricing is another criterion. Horizontal electric geysers tend to be more expensive than vertical electric geysers. The price difference goes from 20 to 30%. For example, an AO Smith 15-liter steep geyser costs around Rs. 6,000, while a horizontal geyser costs around Rs. 11,000. Gas geysers usually come in something other than horizontal models.
