I want to put a 200L immersion heater in the roof space next to a soon to be bathroom in a renovation project.

From what I have read it is generally considered better to have a vertical HW tank because of the way the hot water separates from the cold.

Because of space issues it would be much better to have a horizontal tank. I would appreciate anyones advice on whether there really is a big difference in performance when using a horizontal tank.

cheers
