Nightfall:
The easy way, unless you are broke like Harry *sigh*, have a big, or at least long house, you at one end, hot water heater at the other end, far enough from you so that you do not recreate the scene from Mythbusters where they tested a hot water heater rocket (right through the roof, hundreds of feet high).

The weirdest things i that Hot Water is a pre-world war 2 invention, so shouldn't be affected by his 'technofield' any more than the blue beatle.

The beetle is not continuously used and Harry does not do much magic when using it but even then it is continuously in repair.

A heating system would be inside his wards in a place were Harry does a lot of magic all the time. And while you can bring the beetle to the mechanic you have to let people in to repair your heating system which is a security risk as well.

Fcrate:
A thin copper tube, wound round and round with a gentle flame beneath. Even a charcoal brazier would work. Made such a device once and it worked fine. Not perfect, but fine :)
There are many non-technological solutions (non-magical as well) but the thing is that Jim wants Harry's life to be as hard as possible. So he made him stupid, or cba whichever.
