Water geyser buying guide for Indian bathrooms

Geyser buying comes down to three decisions: type, capacity and safety hardware. Get those right and the rest is finish and warranty.

Storage or instant?

Instant geysers (3L) suit kitchens and quick hand-wash use. Storage geysers (10–25L) are the right answer for bathing, especially bucket baths and showers where sustained hot water matters.

Capacity guide

• 10L — 1–2 people, bucket bath.
• 15L — small family, shower use.
• 25L — larger family or multiple back-to-back showers.

Safety features that matter

Look for a multi-function safety valve, thermal cut-out, glass-lined or SS304 inner tank, and high-density PUF insulation to keep standby heat loss low. In hard-water areas, a magnesium anode rod is not optional.
