Xiaomi has begun accepting pre-orders for the Mijia Smart Gas Water Heater 2 Constant Temperature Zero Cold Water 16L on the JD.com platform. The official sales launch is set for November 30, with a price tag of 1699 yuan ($240). With a government subsidy, the price drops to 1444 yuan ($205).
The new water heater is equipped with a ‘zero cold water’ system: this mode allows its circulation pump to preheat the cold section of water in the pipe, enabling users to start their shower without waiting for the water to warm up. The device supports several preheating modes that can be activated by a timer or the push of a button. Furthermore, the dual-drive valve technology automatically adjusts water flow to maintain a stable system operation.
The Mijia Smart Gas Water Heater 2 fully integrates into the Xiaomi smart home ecosystem and supports HyperOS Connect functionality. Users can initiate preheating remotely via the Mi Home app, schedule operation times, or link the heater with smart door locks or bathroom heaters. This level of connectivity reflects a growing trend towards more cohesive smart home systems.
The device also features an intelligent algorithm for precise temperature control, ensuring water temperature stability within +/- 0.5°C. The built-in inverter pump addresses issues of weak flow and low pressure, enhancing the user experience by ensuring consistent water pressure and delivery.
Smart home appliances like Xiaomi’s water heater are part of a broader movement towards eco-friendly solutions in household technology. Energy-efficient designs not only reduce household utility costs but also lessen the environmental footprint, aligning with global sustainability goals.
Recent advancements in smart water heater technology include more sophisticated methods for energy conservation and user convenience. This involves refined algorithms for heat management and the integration of AI to predict user habits, minimizing energy waste while maintaining comfort.
While Mijia products are primarily designed to interact within the Xiaomi ecosystem, there’s a push in the industry to enhance compatibility with widely used platforms such as Amazon Alexa and Google Home, reflecting consumer demand for seamless smart home integration.
