Stiebel Eltron Tankless Water Heater: Enjoy Endless Hot Water On Demand

Jessica Raines: I understand how this install can get very expensive for people. We had help from a licensed electrician friend which saved us a ton. All in all install was under $500 after purchasing pipes, valves, breakers, wire, and conduit. Took about 6 hours, due to an extra trip to town for supplies. Hot water worked immediately. We did install a filter in front of the hot water heater to help reduce scale build up. The filter affected water pressure minimally. We have a 2000 Sqft house and a 200 amp electrical box. I have had no cold water sandwich problems. It does take a but for the water to heat up but this is a con I can live with for unlimited hot water. We've been using it for about a month now and I'm very happy with our purchase.

INSTALL NOTE - I am not a plumber and this stretched my mechanical DIY-er mentality, but I did install this on my own: be careful if you choose to install this on your own. I chose NOT to do the electrical upgrade required on my own - the risk of not getting that right was too high, so I paid my electrical contractor to upgrade the box for the 3 x 50 amp breakers - NO REGRETS!

I knew my 55 gal standard electric water heater was not going to last much longer due to the units age AND the fact our local city water is awful with calcium and build up. I researched the available setups and units ad nauseum, and went with this unit: the brand recognition and reputation, the size due to our house and expectation that we will eventually sell it. When I bought this unit, it was one of the larger of its type and was actually cheaper than if I went with a standard water heater to match the one I was getting rid of.

First, the drop in electric usage has about paid for 50% of the unit cost over the last year - yeah, THAT MUCH! Results will vary I am sure, but its just my wife and I in 2200 sq ft house, so the fact it runs "on demand"...

John P. EndsleyJohn P. Endsley: This will be my 3rd Tankless water heater. All have been OK to wonderful. This unit is the best. It was easy to install the Hardware has had major improvements, and its interface is way faster than just 14 years ago. In 2007 i bought the Tempra 24 This unit gave me 9 years of hot water in a room 1.5 bath house. Till a major storm killed it and every appliance in my house. I replaced it with the Ecosmart 27 and that unit works till this very day. I sold that house last year an i have been missing the unlimited hot water ever since. I now own a 4 bedroom 3 bathroom house built in 1905. Its been a remolding money pit, but the water heater was just fine. 50 gal electric. well last week i changed it. It took 300ft of Romex 8-2, 3 40 amp breakers, 8' red 1/2pex and 8'blue 1/2 pex with many fittings and a filters to protect the unit for lime and rust. In the time it has had a round the clock test of 110f to 120f and tested up to 140f yes it does that just fine if you like burns... the real testing is having kids and family getting real usage out of it. having a person in the both showers and washing close at the same time. Yet never running out of water. The controls...

A. G. Maqueo: Hasta ahorita he tenido un mes este producto y ha funcionado a la perfección. Si requiere una instalación eléctrica especializada pero el flujo de agua es constante y alto. No ocupa nada de espacio y puede estar en el interior de la casa en un espacio pequeño. Además es muy silencioso.

Jorge Ortiz: Mientras funciono fue una maravilla (2años) pero después de un tiempo dejo de detectar cuando corría el agua entonces había que estarlo apagando y después de alguna manera una parte del cobre se gastó y comenzó a hacer corto circuito, no encuentro solución ni forma de repararlo. Cuando funcionaba se me daban mantenimientos de limpieza para sarro cada 6 meses y todo lo necesario para su correcto funcionamiento pero aún así fallo…

Despues de la instalacion que es un poco tediosa y la tiene que hacer un profecional por la capasidad de carga (gaste como 2,000 mas en cosas para instalar) caliente el agua con madre y no baja la precion de agua de la casa...
