Geyser Electricity Cost Calculator
Electric water heaters consume massive amounts of power. Calculate exactly how much your daily hot water bath costs.
Do not enter full bathroom time
Enter the minutes the heating element is actually on. If the geyser heats for 20 minutes and then you bathe for another 15 minutes, the electricity use is based on those 20 heating minutes.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many watts is a geyser?
A standard 15-litre or 25-litre storage geyser in India typically consumes 2000 Watts (2 kW). Instant geysers (1L-3L) consume 3000 Watts to 4500 Watts.
Should I keep the geyser on 24/7?
No. Leaving a storage geyser on 24/7 wastes a lot of electricity because the thermostat will repeatedly turn the heating element on to maintain water temperature as it naturally cools down.
Which is better, instant or storage geyser?
Instant geysers use more power per minute but are on for a very short time. Storage geysers use less power per minute but run longer. Overall, instant geysers are slightly more energy-efficient for quick showers, while storage geysers are better for bucket baths.
