Water Heater or Hot Water Heater?

This is a minor annoyance of mine. I don't know why people call them hot water heaters. They aren't heating hot water. Please discuss this phenomenon and remember to shame people making this awful mistake.

Hot Water Heater is the proper term on the Bayou.

Ppl who discuss this are miserable in life. Semantics, everyone still knows what you’re talking about.

People that are annoyed by this annoy me. I think next person that tells me “why are you heating hot water?” Is going to get a kick in the dick

The bigger question is whether you can preheat the water in the hot water heater.

If you have an old school tanked system, your water is hot inside the tank. Therefore, you are heating already hot water to maintain the temperature.

but is it the tank that heats the water?

Is it a generator or a back up generator?

If your hot water heater is set to 140degF, and the internal thermostat reads 120... It kicks on to heat the water up a bit, correct? So given that, 120 degree water is still hot, correct?
Thus it IS a water heater, but also a HOT water heater.
NOW, let's put this shite to bed.

When you first plug it in and turn it on, it is a water heater. Once that water heats up, it maintains the heat of the hot water, thus heating hot water.

this summer the water is hot before it gets to the water heater anyways, so it's really just heating hot water hotter

I like to call it a cold water heater, just to confuse everyone

Couldn't you have just googled Tigerdroppings hot water heater and seen that this has been discussed since like 2006. Congrats, you're 17 years late on this "minor annoyance" of yours.
