The History Of Water Heaters or Geysers:
The water heater has been around for so long now that in today’s society it is mostly taken for granted. However, hot water for bathing is a luxury that once was reserved only for the elite.
The first reports of people using warm baths came out of Rome which is of little surprise as the Romans are credited with having invented plumbing and aqueducts that carried fresh water in and waster out of the city.
They were master engineers. Around 300 AD, large soaking tubs of heated water were being introduced in the great bathhouses of Rome.
For centuries the only way to have a hot bath was to heat water on a stove or by burning wood and hanging pots of water over the fire until hot. This hot water was then poured into wooden or metal tubs for bathing.
