Rheem RTE 9 Electric Tankless Water Heater, 3 GPM Reviews
This review is from: Rheem RTE 9 Electric Tankless Water Heater, 3 GPM (Tools & Home Improvement)
I was debating on this size or the one size smaller. I made the right choice. All though it does take a 40 amp breaker and number 8 wire ( same specs as conventional electrical stove in most homes), which is a fairly good load, the hot water is instant and plentiful. We have a 1 inch incoming line and plenty of pressure, reduced down to 1/2" within a foot of the heater. The flow through the unit is a lot and with the t-stat turned to full the water is plenty warm. It doesn't take much of a flow to trip the unit on. We had tried a smaller unit at another location and we had to control the water flow to get substantial 'warm' water.
