Delivers hot water on demand when you turn on the tap. The compact DHC single phase instantaneous water heater is a hydraulically controlled water heater ideal for servicing smaller hot water requirements, such as basins and sinks.
Installs right where you need the water. The compact size of the DHC allows it to be installed in areas where it would be impossible to install a storage systems, thanks to the fact that is does require a safe tray or drainage (check local regulations).
NB: Requires 40 Amps at peak, please ensure your electrical systems are capable of delivering this before ordering.

FAQ
Electric Hot Water FAQ’s
1. How do electric storage systems work?
Electric storage systems work by storing hot water in the tank so it is immediately ready for use. Continuous flow systems work by heating the water on demand as opposed to storing it.
2. Are instantaneous water heaters energy efficient and sustainable?
Due to the proximity to the draw-off point, the pipe runs are shorter which ensures that there is a reduction in heat loss, and hot water is quickly available when it is drawn off next. This allows for only the required amount of water being used to be heated. This therefore saves energy, water and costs.
3. What are the benefits of an electric hot water system?
- Lower upfront costs
- Can be installed internally or externally
- Comes in a variety of sizes
