A reservoir type electric water heating tank for containment within a void defined between the upper and lower plates, pair of spaced vertical studs and the opposing surface elements of a structural wall includes a relatively thin tank structure peripherally thermally insulated with thin rigid insulation and having a rectilinear configuration. The tank has two spaced opposed sides of substantial areal extent with vertical flutes therein to provide rigidity joined to a pair of elongate rectilinear vertical ends and horizontal top and bottom elements to define a chamber for containment of water to be heated. Structural brackets extend laterally from the upper and lower portions of the vertical ends of the tank to the peripheral surface of the thermal tank insulation and are secured by lateral extensions thereof to vertical post-like studs having laterally extending fastening brackets adapted to be secured to the plates of the structural wall. A plurality of electric immersion heating element are provided in the tank to heat the water.
