Hello, we have purchased a house and want to renovate the bathroom. We would like to install a bathtub. It should be a corner bathtub with dimensions of 1.40m x 1.40m (4 ft 7 in x 4 ft 7 in) and a water capacity of 290 liters (77 gallons). However, our heating system is located in the attic and has a wall-mounted storage water heater from Vaillant (vih cb 70) with a 63-liter (17 gallons) hot water reserve. This will definitely be too small. What options do we have now? A smaller bathtub?
I would appreciate any advice or suggestions!

It would also be suitable for a tankless water heater. These devices aren’t exactly cheap, but they are specifically designed for this type of application.
