It is a device for heating water to a pre-set temperature and holding the aforementioned heated water.

I've heard the same term for years. Also hear people say they have to unthaw their pipes when it gets cold out.


ergo, bibamus.

It's a hot water heater, water is pert near hot enough that there contraption makes it hot enough and yes you do need to unthaw them pipes if you let it go long enough...

A water heater continues to intermittently heat the water inside it even after it is "hot" so it can maintain a preset temperature even when no water is being used. Therefore it is heating hot water. Calling it a hot water heater would be correct in a literal sense


Eh...wot?

what are you from Cornish WI or maybe you were English.

every one knows it's a hot water heater and you gotsta unthaw dem chops

it is like tradition , also a bubbler

maybe we shouldn't start the Pop vs Soda since that is on some interesting dividing lines

is it a Battery or a Battree

it's the colonialisms that make us Sconie

they are probably rooted in our Scandinavian accessors struggles with English.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.
