Additional Information

Maximum Flow Rate Desired: You should consider the maximum flow rate you really need or use. See chart for flow rate guidelines for various hot water applications in the home. The average shower temperatures are between 98°F-104°F. To determine which model you need, determine how many hot water applications you run at the same time. Add up the flow for them . Use the charts to determine the flow rate for those applications and your inlet water temperature to determine which model is best for you.

Chart shows flow rates for each model based on inlet temperature with temperature control setting at 105°F
 

If you typically use about 3.5 gallons per minute (2 showers with water saver showerheads) at the same time, find the 3.5 GPM on the chart or the number closes to it. If the number is highlighted in GREEN, that means it's the correct model for you. It it's highlighted in YELLOW, that means you can get by with it. If it's highlighted in RED, you should consider a model a step or two up.

Specifications

Electricial Requirements

Before purchasing an ECOSMART, please ensure that your home has sufficient electrical capacity for your desired model, or that you have taken note of any upgrades that may be required.

Please see the following chart for electrical requirements:
 

Breaker size and wire gauge must meet all applicable local, state, provincial, and national electrical codes for your area - these are only guidelines that will apply to most installations. Some codes require use of electrical sub-panel for installation, especially when heater is not mounted within line-of-sight of the main electrical panel. Wiring should be sized to maintain a voltage drop of less than 3% under load. Please consult your electrician for more details.

The above specifications are only guidelines. If your home is already equipped with a large number of electrical appliances, you may require a larger electrical service than the one recommended above. Please consult an electrician before placing an order.

If your home does not have the minimum household electrical service as specified for your desired model, you can still purchase an ECOSMART tankless water heater, however, upgrades to your electrical service will likely be required. It is recommended that you consult your certified electrician for a quote, prior to purchasing.
