My house has a gas based water heater(geyser) on the outside. The plumber has connected it such that without the use of electric pump, just through pressure alone, hot water reaches the 1st and 2nd floor. How does this work?

Best Answer
The same pressure (provided by your local utility)that pushes the water out of the first floor faucet. It all requires pressure. The water heater provides very little resistance to the flow of the water.
