3 Smart Steps for Endless Hot Water
Step 1: Determining your average inlet water temperature is important, this allows you to determine how well your unit will perform in your desired location. A lower inlet water temperature will require a higher kilowatt product.
Step 2: This product is fixed flow, which means that the output temperature rise of this product is determined by flow rate of the application. This chart gives you the expected temperature rise for various sink flow rates from 0.5 to 1.5 gallons per minute.
Step 3: Determining specifications and electrical infrastructure is important because without the correct infrastructure your unit may not fit into your breaker panel.

Customers are dissatisfied with the flow rate of the water heater. They mention that it has a low flow rate required to achieve 35°F increase, and the water has to run slow pressure if they want to feel the water warm.

Customers also mention that they have to restrict the flow a lot to get it to work.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
When I first hooked it up, purged the air, turned on the electric and hit the power button, nothing happened. I thought it might be DoA like others reported; sure I wired it correctly as the other 120v device on the same circuit was working, I tried running some water, and boom it lit up. For some reason the power button will turn on/off when no water is flowing, but the LED display will not illuminate unless so.
Live in southern California, Santa Barbara, its almost September, ground water is getting fairly cold. Heats only about 0.25GPM to "hot" ~95-100*. Thinking of replacing with the 6kw, uses the same wiring just gotta make room in my panel for another double pole breaker.
Attempted to reach Amazon about return/warranty information and zero response.
Sadly... went for loving it to realizing it’s a crap product from a crap manufacturer.
I installed this in a sheltered outdoor location at my ranch so my ranch helpers would have a very convenient place to wash their hands often during CovidTIme. It's right outside their office/hangout so they can wash up each time they come back for a tool or break, instead of having to go to another barn for the regular restroom.
Installation is not DIY for most folks- we needed the electricians to do the install. That said, so far the unit is sturdy and products abundant hot water for a couple people to wash their hands well at a time. What I especially like about this unit is the very compact size- worked great in our location.
This unit has been used on a daily basis for 2 years now. It's installed in an RV, where either myself or others live full time... MY ORIGINAL REVIEW STANDS; this water heater has met my needs (in Central Florida) even during the coldest part of the winter. The only issue is the low flow rate required to achieve 35°F increase, but that is a factor of energy-in vs. energy-out... The limiting factor is 120 VAC, which is my choice to allow its (occasional) use on an inverter powered by solar/batteries. I would highly recommend the 230 Volt version if your installation allows for it.

The unit has been installed and working fine for approximately one month. In real life, I do not see the stated temperature rise. The packaging indicates 47.8° F temperature rise at a flow rate 0.5 GPM. The lowest flow rate that this unit will allow is 0.45 GPM... Any lower flow rate and the device shuts off the heating element - apparently this is to protect from overheating.
While testing at 0.45 GPM, the maximum temperature rise I have experienced was 39.6°F. In a bench test configuration the current draw was 28 amps at 122 volts (3,416 watts). Considering the flow rate was slightly below 0.5 GPM, I've concluded that this unit does not efficiently transfer energy to the water. At least not efficient enough to achieve the rated temperature rise of 47.8°F at 0.5 GPM.
Although it does not quite hit the mark regarding efficiency, IT CERTAINLY FITS MY NEEDS. For that reason I'm keeping it, and in fact will likely purchase one or two more of these units. Possibly I will buy a larger unit for another location.
