Best Answer

There are a number of factors that determine where the Plumbing contractor decides to install it.

If it is a gas heater, it needs to be located where it can be vented to the outside.

Typically the heater should be as centrally located as possible to facilitate hot water getting to all of the fixtures it is attached to.

They will attempt to minimize the length of the piping runs. Takes less piping and less work to install.

Why Cold water is supplied to the bottom of hot water tank?

Cold water is supplied to the bottom of the hot water tank to prevent mixing of cold and hot water. This ensures that the hottest water is at the top of the tank where it can be drawn for use, while the cold water enters at the bottom to be heated by the heating element or burner. This also helps in creating a convection current within the tank for efficient heating.
