The tankless water heater doesn't hold any hot water. Water flows through a sensor, then turns on the burner.

With tank type water heaters, you can draw water as fast as your plumbing will allow to you; however, when the hot water tank is depleted, you have to wait for the tank to re-heat before you can use hot water again. The tankless water heater will give you endless hot water for as long as you open a faucet. See similar questions...

Tank water heaters store and heat water at all times, thus incurring higher operating costs, whereas tankless water heaters only heat water as needed. In addition, tank heaters have a limited supply of hot water and will run out of hot water while tankless heaters provide an unlimited supply of hot water - you will never run out. Also, the size of a residential tankless heater is about the size of a carry on suitcase and can be installed virtually anywhere inside or outside. See similar questions...

It can be as high as 167?F. The tankless water heaters we distribute have computer-controlled systems, which is pre-set at the factory to deliver 140?F water. This temperature can be regulated up or down by use of a remote temperature controller. In abnormal installations, a domestic hot water mixing valve is recommend. See similar questions...

No. This is a common misconception of tankless water heaters. A tankless water heater does heat water on-demand instantly, but just like a tank water heater, it will take the same amount of time for the hot water to travel through the plumbing inside your home. If you would like to get instant hot water, there are recirculation pump systems available to hook-up to your tankless water heater. Please ask your installer to see what options you may have in getting instant hot water in your home. See similar questions...

The California Energy Commission estimates that a water heater uses approximately 25% of all energy consumed by any household. Using a Noritz tankless water heater will allow a home to use up to 50% less energy for water heating, which can save hundreds of dollars per year. See similar questions...

This is one of those things that seems difficult, but is actually very easy. First you need a source of water; either hook up to the city water connection or fill the on board water tanks and turn on the pump. Now comes the hard part, just open the hot water faucet. The water entering from the water source you selected will displace the air in the HWH and begin to fill. At first air will be expelled from the faucet, then it will spurt water and finally a full stream of water. See similar questions...

You might have sediment buildup in your tank. As water heaters age, they tend to accumulate sediment and lime deposits. If the heaters are not cleaned periodically, the sediment may rise to a level that will act as a barrier between the burner and the water, making it harder to heat. An article published in a national ASPE plumbing journal states: for every half inch of sediment on the bottom of a gas fired water heater, it requires 70% more fuel to heat the water. back to top See similar questions...

UltraHeat™ offers three types of tank heaters: two 13.5 Volt DC (VDC) powered tank heaters (Model 1200 & 2400); two 120 Volt AC (VAC) powered tank heaters (Model 4200 & 4800) and one combination tank heater powered with both 13.5 Volt DC and 120 Volt AC (Model 3600.) The UltraHeat™ Tank Heaters should be selected based on the liquid capacity of the individual holding tank to be protected, see the table below to help with this selection. See similar questions...

there are several manufacturers of hot water heaters (HWH), read and understand you owners manual. The first thing I want to say is when lighting the HWH it takes a LONG time holding down the pilot button to get gas flow all the way to the HWH. Turn the HWH gas valve knob to the "Pilot" position, then push this knob in. Gas will NOT flow unless you are holding this down. It is a safety thing. Wait at least 1 minute, usually 2 and gas will begin to flow. Now try to light it. See similar questions...

Many homeowners are able to install the unit themselves or you can have your local electrician and plumber install the unit. See similar questions...

Our units work well with well-water systems. Pressure variations under 20 PSI are generally tolerated by the units. Keep in mind that water flow and pressure are the eyes and ears of ALL tankless units. This is what tells the unit how much power is required to heat your water. Our units are designed to operate within a range of 5-150 PSI. It is recommended that your pump be set to run at 60- 80 PSI. See similar questions...

Yes! The unit has been designed to operate outside. The outer casing of the tank is zincalume based and ColorBond coated. See similar questions...

The tankless water heater could be used in a radiant system, provided that the incoming/returning water temperature will be less than 100 F degrees. Please consult with the manufacturer of the radiant system to determine the suitability of a tankless water heater with that particular radiant system. See similar questions...

Stiebel Eltron is one of only a few manufacturers that uses all metal construction in it's manufacturing process. The heat exchanger contains the heating elements (see interior photo), through which the water passes. The Stiebel Eltron products are equipped with welded hand-fabricated heavy duty copper heat exchangers. Metal is more expensive to buy and fabricate, but we think its long lasting qualities are worth it. See similar questions...

A conventional tank-type water heater must keep 40-80 gallons of water heated to between 120o-140o F. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Now compare that to the 10-12 minutes a day per person that you actually turn on a hot water tap, shower, clothes- or dish-washer, etc. The Stiebel Eltron Tempra Electronic Tankless Water Heater only consumes electricity when you use hot water!

Sure it will. The unit operates in a range between 5 - 150 psi. Actually, the lower your pressure is, the higher the temperature rise produced by the unit. The optimum range you should set your pump at is 50 - 70 psi. Caution - If the pressure gauge on your pump permits the water pressure to vary by more that 20 psi, the operation of the Stiebel Eltron Tempra Tankless Water Heater can be impaired.
