How It Works: Efficient & Safe Hot Water, Instantly
1. Demand‑Activated Heating
Flow-sensitive switch powers the heating element only when water flows.
2. Smart Diagnostics & Protection
InfoCue™ status LEDs show operational health. SafeStart™ prevents dry firing, while internal overrides protect against overheating.
3. Compact, Ready-to-Go Installation
Includes cold-water input and hot-output compression fittings—no mixing valves or additional parts required.
