But is 30a enough? 220v x 30a = 6600W, which is only 25% of what would be needed to heat 2.5 gallons / minute from 65F to 140F.

(assumptions: 100% efficiency, no heat-recovery from waste-water, and possible bad math on my part)

How much do you expect the 2.5 gpm water temp to rise? Do you think it will be adjustable by the user or set at the factory?

I also changed my mind on the water connections and now think they will be smaller like 3/8".

11 x 11 x 6 is pretty big for a point-of-use isn't it? What do you expect it to weigh? The mini-tanked units are only slightly larger than this. The WDRP is tankless and not considered a "mini-tank" unit correct?

Would you expect 120V or 220V?

Good Morning WDRP, is this the day?

A 220V unit at 30 amps will give 6600W. That much power, utilized for one minute, can raise 2.5 gallons of water by only +20F.

The specs must be different, or there is something I'm omitting.

Can anyone spot the flaw in my logic?

TIA
