WHAT ARE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS FOR A TANKLESS WATER HEATER?
The breaker’s amp rating will be determined by your unit’s current draw (AMP consumption). The wire gauge size (AWG) will be determined by the breaker you will be using. That is, the wire must safely carry the current from breaker to your tankless water heater. For instance, the Titan tankless heater model SCR2 N-120 draws a maximum of 54 amps. Meaning, it will consume a maximum of 54 amps at peak power output, only as necessary. Our aim is to provide you with a baseline, or reference point for our tankless water heaters’ power requirements. Keep in mind that local building codes vary from one place to the next. You should always check your local building codes to make sure you are complying with the standards in your area.
