you also need to run more than one fixture at a time, probably wise to monitor gas pressure at unit too, if it ramps up to max and gas is low, it will lack output, same as too high flow rates….
recirc pump/s needed if it's more than 10' away with over 1/2" feeder…. on demand ones work OK, either manual button push or flow sense… they break like everything else =p
120F supposed exiting… I trust them not, but anyway, loss of temp in piping and flow volume beyond what it;ls rated at = cool.cold water. probably someone trying to shower/laundry/dishes/sinks/etc at same time. no go! more so if gas feed is undersized/choked or aerators and flow limiters removed
I use an 8 OZ glass and plop two thermometors into it (digital and old school mercury!) oh yeah, let it run for 10 minutes and watch/record. A. you get the best reading, B. you cover your bum =p
CB a repoped vid
CB1 what up!!!!
What do your apprentices start at
This is a more complex issue than it first appears. For prevention of legionnaires disease from water borne bacteria called Legionella pneumophila lots of health and safety guidelines for household hot water temperature, suggest the temp of the hot water should be higher, but at this temp (138 F) people can scald themselves if they're not careful. But when you lower the thermostat on the water heater for 'safety' you might invite conditions that support the growth of Legionella sp. So it's a fine balance between the two.
U just got a new sub which is me
People always in a hurry for their hot water….geeesh……
I have customers who want to peel skin off their bodies, they want the water so damn hot. You always have 1 in the household who wants this.
hi cb1 I got a similar tools bu I use it at work for cheking all my meat before I served them to my guest(food thermometer) enjoyed the video have a good Sunday.
Where can I get that thermometer? Great video
Cool !! Tool, digital?. I need to upgrade mine
armed with on site data you collected at rm hse, you can now convey to owner the essential/mns plus temp in a video no less, armed with this info the next on demand potential customer wont have you guessing if this installation was the correct choice, pros and cons..really isnt this the cat's meow,plumbing with the horizon in view…surf's up Mr.Barron , Atlantic City's most favorite go to for plumbing solutions… Barron and Sons, solutions within your budget constraints
get a recktal stick in your end see hown warm it is
That is my issue with on demand water heaters they take a while to get to fixture and homeowner or tenant don't understand it. If you put a recirc line on you defeat the purpose of it now it is running way more then it needs to so there's no happy medium I will stick with tanked water heaters !!!
Have to do that in jail 2x a year and document. Low bid building so trying to get 5 showers and 15 sinks in spec can be fun, especially in winter months. Thanks for video Chuck!
