Product Features
This Mini tankless electric water heater differs from a conventional storage type mini water heaters. It doesn’t store hot water. Instead, water is heated ins tantaneously as it flows through the unit. The powerful heating elements are activated by a flow switch as water is drawn from a main water faucet connected to the appliance. Due to the absence of stand-by loss, the mini has greater energy efficiency than storage type water heaters. The unit are incorporated with multi-safety devices and will continuously supply hot water as long as the faucet is open.
Besides, the unit has the following features.
1. Tankless, instantaneous heating for on demand hot water, No pre-heating. No stand-by heating loss. energy-saving.
2. High strength ABS splash proof casing, stainless steel heating element.
3. Compact appearance and unlimited supply of hot water.
4. Easy installation, heater can be installed above or under sink. Power cord and plug are equipped
5. Easy operation, the heater provides hot water with constant temperature.
6. Micro-computer control, Adopting patent heating technology. Water is completely separated from electricity by multi-layers of composite nano insulation material.
7. Over temperature protection: when the outlet water temp. reaches or over 65
°C, the appliance will avoid getting scalded and will start to work automatically while temp. drops to a certain temperature.
8. There is a built-in pressure relief valve at the water outlet to prevent explosion.
9. There is overheat protection, dry-heating protection, electricity leakage protection function.
