Electric water heaters are becoming increasingly popular in commercial settings due to their environment-friendly attributes. Unlike gas water heaters, electric ones do not produce toxic fumes, reducing air pollution. In addition, their easy installation process makes them convenient for various commercial settings.

The popularity of horizontal water geysers in compact spaces, particularly urban apartments, significantly affected the water heater market. With the increasing trend toward smaller living spaces, consumers seek appliances that optimize available rooms and enhance their homes' overall aesthetics. For instance, A.O. Smith offers horizontal water heaters, HAS-X1, with key features such as longer shelf life, advanced PUF insulation, high energy efficiency, and power savings. The company expands its product portfolio and increases its consumer base in the market.
