An electric tankless water heater converts stated kW into a temperature rise at a given flow, so a cold-climate inlet cuts the usable GPM sharply. Read the kW rating, the 240 V requirement and the amperage the listing states, then have a licensed electrician confirm your panel capacity before you order. Nothing here is an installation instruction.

Compare the stated kW with the output the flow-rate calculator gives for your climate: a cold inlet cuts usable GPM sharply. Have a licensed electrician confirm that your panel and service can carry the amperage this listing states; nothing on this page is wiring guidance.
