14 kW at 240 V

The heating power the listing states; at 240 V that's about 58 A. On our calculator's maths it gives about 2.2 GPM of 105 °F water when the tap water comes in at 62 °F, and less in winter. Enough for a kitchen or a bathroom sink.

What it has going for it

What changes at the sink

Wi-Fi app. Set the temperature, see the flow and get error codes on your phone, which beats reading a blinking code in the crawl space.

Starts at 0.53 GPM. The minimum flow that switches it on. A low-flow bathroom tap opened gently may not trigger it, which is worth knowing before it goes under the sink.

One sink or a shower?

One sink: about 2.2 GPM of 105 °F water with 62 °F tap water, on our calculator's maths. That covers a kitchen or a bathroom sink.

A shower: on paper, with warm tap water, just about (a shower takes about 2 GPM). In January it falls short.

Great for you if…

  • The kitchen or the powder-room sink takes forever to run hot
  • You like to see what your appliances are doing

Skip it if…

  • You want hot water for the whole house: 14 kW is sized for one tap
  • You'd rather wait for buyer reviews: none are captured for this listing yet
  • You want the power to follow the flow: the listing doesn't say it modulates

What Westinghouse promises

The seller states, word for word, in the Westinghouse 14 kW Electric (240V) listing:

  • This Westinghouse tankless water heater electric requires a dedicated 60A double-pole breaker and 6 AWG wire at 240V for stable, safe operation.
  • This Westinghouse electric tankless water heater 240v delivers hot water in just 3 seconds with 98% thermal efficiency.
  • Compatible with Alexa and Google Home, this 14kW Westinghouse tankless water heater lets you adjust temperature and monitor usage via simple voice commands or the mobile app from anywhere.
  • A removable inlet filter and rotor can be easily taken out by hand for cleaning—we recommend rinsing them every 6 months to remove trapped sediment and scale.

That's the seller talking, not us. No listing tells you how it copes with 42 °F water at 6:45 in the morning.

Power, wiring and what's in the box

What the Westinghouse 14 kW Electric (240V) listing names:

  • 14 kW
  • 240 V
  • 6 AWG wire
  • Switches on at 0.53 GPM
  • Wi-Fi app control
  • CSA, ETL or UL mark named

Breakers and wire gauge are in the installation manual, and it overrides anything above; your electrician reads it first.

Price and cost per kW

$319.99 Price on Sep 30, 2026 · may have changed

At the price on Sep 30, 2026, each kW of stated heating power works out at about $22.86 (price ÷ stated kW, our arithmetic). That puts it around the middle of the 17 point-of-use heaters we have a price and a stated power for.

Add the circuit to the budget if it doesn't plug in, and an hour of plumbing under the sink.

A better fit for that tap?

Want the shower covered too? The Rheem 18 kW Electric, 240V (9.3/10) is an 18 kW whole-house unit.

Want it to draw only what it needs? The ThermoMate 14 kW Electric, 240V (7.9/10) is self-modulating, per its listing.

Want to spend less? The ORBEK 14 kW Electric, 240V (7.7/10) was listed at $189.99 on Sep 30, 2026.

Our take

The verdict

Our favourite thing about the Westinghouse 14 kW Electric (240V) is a compact 14 kW element, closely followed by Wi-Fi control from your phone. No buyer reviews yet, so the Westinghouse 14 kW Electric (240V) has to win you over on paper. The one thing that bugs us: no word on the breakers it needs or the flow. We'd pick it if the kitchen or the powder-room sink takes forever to run hot; otherwise, put it next to the ORBEK 14 kW Electric (240V) first.

Living with it

Install day

6 AWG wire, the unit on the wall next to the old tank's spot, water in and out. Under a sink or on the wall beside it, close to the tap it feeds.

The first shower

Hot in a few seconds once the water in the pipes has passed. Set it, then leave it.

The first winter

With 42 °F water coming in, 14 kW gives about 1.5 GPM at 105 °F on our calculator's maths. Low-flow shower heads stretch that further.

Upkeep

Clean the inlet screen and flush out scale on hard water. Our flushing and descaling guide has the routine.

The one thing we'd check first

Before you order the Westinghouse 14 kW Electric (240V), check the tap it will feed: 14 kW suits one sink or a low-flow shower, and it needs 0.53 GPM to switch on.

Before you buy

Which tap

14 kW warms one sink or one low-flow shower, not two. Decide the fixture first, then check the flow it needs. Our point-of-use guide explains the trade-off.

Power

It runs on 240 V. At 240 V it needs a dedicated circuit; an electrician confirms the breaker and the wire.

Activation flow

It switches on at 0.53 GPM. A low-flow aerator opened gently may not reach that, so check the faucet you plan to pair it with.

Scale

Electric units scale too, mostly at the inlet screen and the element. Our flushing and descaling guide covers the routine.

Is the Westinghouse 14 kW Electric (240V) any good?

We rate it 7.7/10 (very good). The rating comes from its documented listing alone, as no customer-review record is captured yet.

How much hot water can the Westinghouse 14 kW Electric, 240V deliver?

The listing states a heating power of 14 kW on 240 V. The headline flow is a mild-weather number: with cold winter water coming in, the same unit gives you less. Read the maker's flow chart at your winter rise, or let our flow-rate calculator do the sums.

What electrical service does the Westinghouse 14 kW Electric, 240V need?

What do you get with the Westinghouse 14 kW Electric (240V)?

Its listing states 14 kW for one tap and Wi-Fi control from your phone. These are the seller's figures, not our measurements: how steady the temperature is in your shower and how it copes with your winter water can't be read from a listing.

What should I check before ordering the Westinghouse 14 kW Electric (240V)?
