An instant inline water heater can certainly add to the heat
delivered to the bath, though you probably won't need it once the cyl
temp is increased. Worth calculating how much heat can be added in
your fill time.


An instant online heater will have no effect until the tank is empty and
then won't have enough power to heat any flow of water unless 10kW or more.


Instant heating can run while the cylinder fills the bath. It gets you 2 hot supplies at once, one stored & one via the cold tap. Result: more hot water available. But it's moot, just turn the temp up a little.
