Abstract: An auxiliary water heater that is installed in an area close to a faucet. This water heater is installed into the existing water line and serves to heat water flowing though the water line. It comprises a cylindrical shaped water tank that is encompassed within an oblong case. The cylindrical shaped water tank has a water input and a water output line. An electrical heating element is used to the heat water within the cylindrical water tank and the temperature of the hot water is controlled by a temperature control switch. Due to the placement of the auxiliary water heater, the amount of time it takes to receive hot water at a faucet is reduced and thereby reduces the amount of water that is wasted waiting for hot water.
