You can always use a water heater as a hot water storage tank. If it is meant to be only a storage tank, heater capacity can be set to zero. In addition, if the storage tank is located in your greenhouse (and if this is also a thermal zone) you can assign it to this zone, i.e. the ambient temperatures for the tank will the zone air temperatures of the greenhouse.
