WERPOWER Bosch Electric Mini Tank Water Heater Tronic 3000 T 2.5 Gallon (ES2.5) - Saves Hot Water Time - Shelves, Walls, Floors

My wife and I moved into a new house where the kitchen sink is as far removed from the hot water heater as is physically possible. It took about 2 minutes for hot water to arrive from the 70 ft distance. Since the water lines run in a concrete slab, even after hot water arrived, a slight pause in flow had a great cooling effect. This water heater tank arrived yesterday in the afternoon and we had hot water at the sink before dinner. Plumbing install was a breeze with the PEX lines. The time consuming portion was installing a new receptacle under the sink. With only a day or so of operation, we are ecstatic. Hot water flows within seconds as the attached video shows. I have a reminder to check the anode after 6 months to see how much erosion occurs. Just waiting for an inline valve to arrive and install as per recommended instructions. Shut off valve added and everything is still good. We love this addition to our life.

Si bien el tamaño puede ser un poco grande para todos los lavabos, la utilidad y fácil instalación de este calentado, lo hace un excelente producto.

¡Es El Bosco! Funciona como se describe, y no hay sorpresa en eso. Lo que vale la pena señalar son los siguientes: * Tamaño significativo. Asegúrese de tener espacio, incluida la plomería necesaria. Consder agregar un filtro de agua antes del calentador de agua, ya que esto le ahorrará dolores de cabeza más adelante. * Requisitos de bajo consumo (solo 1,500 vatios): las alternativas baratas probablemente requerirán 3,000 vatios y podrían producir todo tipo de problemas. * No es un suministro infinito. Ofrece lo suficiente para llenar su fregadero. Use su suministro de agua caliente en ráfagas; Esto le da al calentador la oportunidad de calentar el agua de reemplazo. * El agua sale caliente rápidamente, ya que solo tiene un corto recorrido entre su grifo y su calentador (que es el punto). * Evite la tentación de aumentar la temperatura. Tenga en cuenta el punto inicial de usar el agua caliente en ráfagas.

We bought a ranch house recently with a crawl space and 60+ feet of distance from the tankless hot water heater at one end of the house to the master bathroom. It takes 1 and a half minutes for hot water to start flowing from the bathroom sink tap after the tap is turned on. Same for the guest bathroom across the hall). Not fun for the wife when she wants hot water and wants it immediately to use for washing her face and hands. And a waste of water and energy as well. I did the research and this water heater seemed to fit the bill for our needs and situation. I picked up a water tap splitter and 2 hoses from HD and was delighted to have installation go smoothly and problem free - mostly. It took a bit of investigation to decide on drilling a hole at the bottom side of the sink cabinet and running a short extension cord from the receptacle on the wall beside the sink to the heater. The other option was to run an electrical cable into the sink cabinet and install a receptacle there for the heater plug. Which would have required drilling a hole through the cabinet base and the ceramic tile floor. My wife was OK with using the side receptacle. The receptacle is near the side edge of the cabinet and the extension cord runs along the edge of the back of the cabinet and wall to the bottom so visually it does not look out of place. Oh, and the extension cord plug is the flat kind so that helps it to blend in (not stick out like a normal electrical plug). Left the water heater setting at the Normal setting on the dial and hot water (111 degrees F.) starts flowing as soon as the water that is the line between the water heater and the tap clears (2-3 seconds). We find the normal setting is hot enough for us to use as is. Leaving the hot water tap FULL OPEN results in hot water flowing for 2 minutes, with it slowly getting less hot over that period of time towards the last 30 seconds to a minute. Which works for our needs. You could increase the hot water temperature and mix cold water to lengthen the time I suppose, but for washing our face and/or hands, the two minutes is sufficient. The other option is to open the tap less than half way and that would allow for more time as well. Overall, very pleased with this heater and plan to order another one for the guest bathroom. Off course Murphy's Law did visit me during installation. The disconnected hot water shut off valve started every so slowly to leak - a few drops over the course of several hours. The seal had deteriorated. (41 year old house). Fixing that was much more trouble than installing the hot water tank. But after several trips and tries of different valves I finally managed to take care of that problem.

This unit is awesome every time I turn on my hot water tap in the kitchen I get rewarded with hot water within seconds. For years every time I did the dishes or turned on the kitchen sink it took about a minute and a half of cold water to get hot water. With this unit I have hot water within seconds and it is so cool to have hot water that quickly. I think this unit is awesome. And very easy to install. I just ran a flex line from my hot water fitting under the sink to the unit and then ran another flex line from the unit up to my tap.And the unit just slid in under my sink, set the temperature where you want it and you’re done.
