    Hi i have a 150 liter electric water heater in a milking parlor heating water for the washing cycle of the milk bulk tank, recently the milk tank was changed to a larger capacity tank and i now haven't enough volume in 150 liters of hot water. My question is if i install a new second heater of 200 liters next to the existing 150 liter heater whats the best way to plumb it in series or in parallel taking into account i will probably need most of the 350 liters of water at the one time for washing. Many thanks

    parallel I would say. If you would be using all the water at the same time then you would want both heaters going together. Are they open or sealed units? If they are sealed then you will need to accommodate for the expansion of the water.
