Product Details

An SHC Mini-Tank Water Heater excels at supplying hot water as a stand-alone supply of hot water, or in-line as a booster to a hot water tank. It can be used in food trucks and recreational vehicles, or as a buffer in a DHW recirculation loop. It saves water and electricity by putting hot water right where it is needed. The small tank and excellent insulation reduces stand-by losses compared with larger tank water heaters. Used in conjunction with a hot water tank it allows immediate hot water draws without waiting for a long pipe run to purge itself of cold water. Lightweight and compact, an SHC easily mounts under or near a sink with its included bracket. Once filled with water, it simply plugs into a 120-Volt outlet. No special wiring is required. A T and P valve is pre-installed. A world leader in advanced water heating technology since 1924, Stiebel Eltron's engineering excellence and high-quality manufacturing results in products fulfilling the highest expectations of performance and reliability.

Q:Will this work for a shower and a kitchen sink in a studio apartment?
by|Mar 12, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  This unit is not normally used for a shower. It only holds 2.5 Gallons of hot water. If you have a very low flow shower head and don't take long showers, it might be ok. But up to your style of shower taking. Usually this is used for jobs that need a limited amount of hot water. If you have any questions, please call our Technical Support Department at 1-800-582-8423 Ext 6 Thank you!

          It's compact and fits nicely in tight areas. I put two of them side by side to service two lavatories in a commercial building. They have only been operating for about two weeks. Time will tell how durable they are, but so far they are both working great.

          Our office finally has hot water!
          I work in a small office in a horribly maintained building. For years we have put up with not having hot water available, but for some reason it bothered us more this winter enough to do something about it. I went with the 2.5 gallon version as there isn't much room under the sink. I wish I had the room for the 4 gallon as the 2.5 gallons goes pretty quickly. I ended up buying a faucet aerator that reduced the flow to 1.2gpm and it has helped for sure. For the needs of a small office it's fine.

            Works great, but more expensive than equivalent products
            Good functionality. I bought it because it was in stock at Home Depot, and my installation space was limited - it fit and I was able to buy it when I needed it.
