Abstract

A fluid heater and a method for evaluating and displaying hot fluid supply time are disclosed. The system includes a fluid container, a controlling unit, a computational element, and a display means. The fluid container includes a cold fluid inlet means, a hot fluid outlet means, a first heating element, a second heating element, a first temperature sensor and a second temperature sensor. The controlling unit is adapted to selectively activate and deactivate one of the first heating element and the second heating element based on the inputs received from the said sensors. The computational element is adapted to compute the hot fluid supply time at a pre-determined set temperature based on at least one input received from said sensors, capacity of said fluid container, and flow rate of fluid to and from said fluid container. The display means is adapted to display the computed supply time.
