General

The DHC-E tankless water heater differs
from conventional storage type water
heaters in several ways. It does not store hot
water. Instead, water is heated
instantaneously as it flows through the unit.
Due to the absence of stand-by losses, the
DHC-E offers greater energy efficiency than
storage type water heaters.
The input of heat into the water is
electronically controlled. The DHC-E will
deliver any water temperature between
86 ºF (30 ºC) and 125 ºF (52 ºC). Please set
the desired temperature using the knob on
the front cover. The LED displays the
temperature that the unit will produce in °C.
Please use the conversion table on the unit
in order to obtain degree Fahrenheit. In case
the "Power" light is flashing while the unit
operates, the water flow rate exceeds the
heating capacity of the unit. Reduce the hot
water flow rate in order to let the unit
achieve the set point temperature. The
maximum temperature is electronically
limited to 125 °F (52 °C). In case you have
questions regarding the way you plan to use
the DHC-E, please call our technical service
line at 800-582-8423 (USA and Canada).
For service outside the U.S. and Canada,
please call us at USA 413-247-3380. You can
