Amazon Customer: I got rid of the big tank Water Heater at my Rental property.
This unit Hung easy, wired easy, Plumbed easy. Gave it water then engaged power...
Immediate Hot water is the way to go!! On demand means never wasting power.
Easy controls that even a Renter can understand.
I will purchase again for other applications.

Pat: Installed in a holiday cabin in central west Alberta, water is cold coming out of the cistern - this world great. Make sure you have an electric system big enough! Using through the winter - blowing it out every time we leave - no problems yet! Last unit I bought (not Eemax) lasted 5 uses and the circuitry went on it. We have a pump that puts out 70psi, turn the valve to the unit down a little and we get ample hot water for the shower or dishes.

fromidaho: I bought this thing for a remodel job. first problem all LED lights would flash call factory rep. was told if your out toward the end of the power grid that will happen sends me new circuit board free of charge. client has been gone until 3 days ago. I go out today change out board. get an e5 code as soon as I turn on bathtub. go on web page tells me to cut flow rate by the time I get it to stop coding I could pee a better stream.
according to there sizing chart this junk should have worked. I did flow rate checks water temp check all before ordering. I get how they work have install several gas models with no problems. And I am a journeyman electrician so power requirements were met and no problem... this thing just sucks and I missed the return date by 6 freaking days.
So if you want to wast this kinda money to get hot water to a sink or live were your ground water is 70 degrees buy this junk. If not keep shopping

Brianna Francis: After months of research and debating on the best way to replace my aging Water heater I decided to choose the EEM24018. Couple reasons that I chose the 18 instead of going larger. I have an older Electrical system that made it difficult to find 3 or 4 double pole slots. I went with the 18Kw since it only has two heating elements and only requires two double pole breakers rather than 3 or 4. Was skeptical if it would be enough for my house or not but It works great and meets all my needs (Central North Carolina.)

I installed the system myself since I'm knowledgeable in home repair. If you don't feel comfortable dealing with Electric and Plumbing then seek professional help before you buy. Depending on current electric service the Electrical work should cost approximately (150$ Material / +300$ Labor) making this project double the cost to replace a 40gal WH. But if you feel comfortable with the work then you can't beat the cost difference.

My cost
$290 - EEM24018
$120 - 125' 8/2 Wire (Up to 60' distance from WH location to Electrical Panel)
$20 - 2 Double Pole 40A Breakers
$20 - 2 new 3/4" WH lines (Not required)
Total Cost...

Raleigh R. Conquest: This is my second tank less water heater. I have been using it for a few months. It is impressive takes a little longer to get stablized but once you have reached it"s activation point it keeps up with the demand. My old unit was never this efficent, two people could shower at the same time but it took planning. This heater works very well no mater how much demand it receives. I am very pleased so far. I especially like the digital temp setting screen. If you cannot have a gas unit because of aviability this heater this one will do a lot better than a tank type, and save you a lot of money, unless your water cost are extreemyy high. You will use a little more water with this one simply because it is not instant, not far from it but not instant. Now the closer you get it to the use area the better you will like it. I have at least 60 foot runs from the heater to the source, for all but one of my 7 high use areas...
