Winter is coming, and in most parts of the Indian subcontinent, the temperature can drop to as low as zero degrees Celsius. That's freezing, quite literally!
In such a situation, it’s nearly impossible to perform kitchen tasks with ice-cold tap water. Lukewarm water becomes a luxury, not just for chores but also for other kitchen activities like cooking and cleaning.
Not only that, but mild hot water is always recommended by medical experts to keep cold-related infections and other health ailments at bay.
While you can resort to the old-school way of manually heating tap water on cooking gas, you can make life a lot easier with a compact water geyser. The smaller dimensions make them easy to install in the tiniest of kitchens and just like bathroom geysers, they directly deliver hot water via the main tap.
And since they are instant geysers, you need not wait for half an hour to get warm water flowing.
Here is our list of the best compact water geysers that you can buy on the onset of winter.
