Eemax SP55 "Single Point" Electric Tankless Water Heater

Product Review

Quite pleased with replacing old 40 gal. 2 element water heater with the Eemax SP55 Tankless Water Heater. Was able to use existing breaker and 220 wiring. Old water heater was half full of lime/sediment and took up too much room & electicity in garage just for occasional hand washing. SP55 does not accumulate such sediments or waste elect. Like it so significantly I ordered another model from Eemax. Almost enough volumn to take a shower with perhaps on city water but my well water is too cold for that. Check requirements for other models, some require bigger wire and breakers than tank type water heaters. (More...)

Reliance 6 50 LORT 50 Gallon Propane Water Heater

Product Review

We purchased this water heater about 3 years ago. It worked fine for the very first six months then suddenly wouldn't stay lit. Because then he have had the plumber out to repair it no less than 12 separate times (no exageration). The water heater is nonetheless under warranty so the business has usually been willing to replace and ship new parts when essential, but they don't pay for labor. Therefore at this point we have spent over $500 dollars in labor and have replaced each component on the water heater no less than when (except for the tank itself). Some parts have been replaced three times. Essentially the water heater stays lit for a while (3-9 months) and then will not stay lit at all. Each time we call a plumber to come out (or call the business) the first factor they desire to know is has the water heater been kept clean. To which the plumber constantly dicovers that the water heater is really clean. (Review More...)

EcoSmart 11 Kw Tankless Water Heater

Product Review

In September of 2010 I bought an Ecosmart tankless waterheater, since a salesperson at a hardware store where I often shopped recomended it. I origynally went to buy the Titan brand that I already owned at one more property and was really content with. After installing the Ecosmart unit I noticed changes in water temperature (got super hot after which cold). In the finish of January 2011 I had a terrible experience, the unit had overheated the CPVC line and blown it like a baloon and melted and water was everywhere. Luckly it occurred early morning just before going to function. The genuine dilemma was when I took the unit back for testing at Ecosmart headquarters in Miami. They blamed it on a power surge, or bad CVPC product from China, or hard water in my region.They claimed the unit was good. Unhappy about this I went to the shop where I created the buy. Ecosmart had referred to as the store and told them not to return money or exchange. Soon after I raised hell, I was given another unit. This unit right after being installed, woul heat the water and then the water will get cold for about a minute. This time I got my money back from the hardware shop and got the Titan..Happy ENDING!!!!!!! (Read More...)

Bradford White M45036FBN 50 Gallon Natural Gas Water Heater

Product Review

Not certain how one reviews a hot water heater apart from it supposed to heat water and this 1 does fine. We replaced an old electric HW heater with gas just last week. Until we get a couple of utility bills I won't know if this can be an economical swap or not. Our gas company ( who also offers our electricity ) has a rebate program for conversion to gas, so there was several dollars off. This can be my 1st gas HW heater, and my initial observations are that it is noisey, or at the least I never heard the prior electric unit when it was operating and with gas you clearly have a combustion burner running at times. I'm told nonetheless that gas offers really quick recovery and that it must minimize my energy bill overall. Fit and finish of this model looks excellent. This unit is about 1 foot taller than its electric predecessor, and our pet cat no longer finds the best of this HW heater accomodating for sleeping, with its' somewhat decreased diameter and a chimney smack dab within the middle of her favorite spot. She's not happy, but so far we're. (More...)

Eccotemp 40H-NG Outdoor Gas Tankless Water Heater, 135,000 British Thermal Unit

Product Review

I bought it and installed it. If you set the temperature above 120F, it produces yellow water at the commence (!) [I feel that is simply because in the event you set it to 130F, it spikes to 140+ initially]. Known as eccotemp and emailed them; they stated that 120F was the maximum temperature for this unit (regardless of the manual saying 140F) and any more would cause burns. True, but: 1. I know the way to use the cold water to mix it towards the temperature I want (it's named tempering!). 2. This can be a "whole house" unit -- I prefer to sterilize my dishes and laundry. 120F doesn't do that (heck, 120F barely kills fleas!) Keeping it in spite of the yellow water... I suppose that means it'll wear out faster than typical and I get to uncover out what how the warranty works. Apart from the low temp, it works, and I've seen a reduction on my gas bill *despite* me filling my hot tub together with the water (Yay! I got to enjoy the hot tub without having waiting for per day for it to heat up on it's own following getting to drain it). (More Detail...)

Eccotemp L5 Portable Tankless Water Heater and Outdoor Shower

Product Review

I received my tankless water heater this morning. It was well-packed and also the directions are pretty great. I appreciated the "extras" which are usually "optional at extra expense," like the shower head, mounting hardware, and propane tank hookup. But (there's constantly a "but!"), unless you've plumbing fittings handy, plan on a trip to the hardware store. The threads you have to connect to are rough and not cut specially properly, one thing that seems widespread on items from China, so you certainly have to have teflon tape or plumber's putty handy. On my unit, the hose connections towards the shower head leak badly at both ends. Not that big a deal because it's intended as a shower, just an annoyance. And, the shower head male threads are a bit brief, so 1 end of the hose would screw on far sufficient to not leak too badly, but the other finish would spray water all over the place until I reversed the hose. Then it just leaked at the water output of the heater. The hose connection (one more good included item) did not have a rubber gasket. (Review More...)
