    Kenstar turns up the heat with smart water heaters built to last longer

    MUMBAI: Bathing blues just got a hot upgrade. Kenstar, one of India’s most trusted appliance brands, has unveiled its latest portfolio of water heaters under the cheeky campaign “Bath Ban Jaye,” a promise to end the nation’s dreaded “half bath” syndrome.

    The new line-up is designed to tick every modern checklist: smarter heating, energy efficiency, sleek design, and safety at its core. Backed by SwirlHeat Technology, the heaters deliver 20 per cent more hot water output, while high-density PUF Insulation keeps it warm 10 per cent longer, trimming electricity use. Add to that German Blue Sapphire Technology, which extends product life by 40 per cent, and Kenstar’s proposition of “Heats Fast, Makes It Last” feels less like a tagline and more like a guarantee.

    With a wide capacity range from 3 litres to 100 litres, the line includes storage, instant, tankless, gas heaters, and even immersion rods all tested to withstand 8-bar water pressure, suiting India’s growing high-rise lifestyle.

    Kenstar hasn’t skimped on safety either. Its 7-Level Safety Shield combines thermal cut-out protection, an IPX4 splash-proof design, and multi-functional valves, ensuring peace of mind with every shower. Each unit also comes with a 7-year warranty on tanks, adding durability to dependability.

    For those who think style belongs only in the living room, Kenstar’s designs make bathrooms just as chic. The Art Series adds a wooden finish, while the Oris Series comes in Snow White, Golden Yellow, Cocoa Brown, and Ocean Blue, a palette that makes water heating look positively fashionable.

    “Every bath should be complete, not compromised,” said Kenstar CEO Sunil Jain as the brand doubled down on its mission of blending smart, stylish, and sustainable home solutions. With 5-star BEE ratings, Kenstar water heaters are designed to lighten not just bills but also the everyday burden of Indian households.

    From cutting bills to cutting cold showers short, Kenstar’s latest range is turning up the heat on the competition ensuring that when it comes to bathing, India gets the full story, not a half chapter.
