Instant Hot Water Heaters

Titan tankless water heater is designed to operate indoors, and therefore it must be protected from rain and weather elements. So installing your Titan outside will be risky unless you have the same protection from the weather and the elements as it would indoors.

If you must install the tankless unit outside your home, better consult with a professional in your local area. Although the insatallation a straight-forward job, it is better to hire a professional to install your Titan heater due to its electrical nature. Most professional installers will be able to complete the job quickly and without incident.

Installation of Titan is quick and easy, and the unit requires no venting or pressure relief valve under normal conditions. If you want to use Titan with plastic, PVC, PVX or any similar tubing material, you will need to have a pressure relief valve tubing which will act as a buffer, isolating your platic tubing. Additionally, copper tubing must be installed in the inlet and outlet side of the tankless water heater.

You must use approximately 36 inches of copper tubbing between the tankless heater and your plastic tubing. The pressure relief valve you install must have a rating that will protect your tubing. For instance, if your PVC piping is rated to 100 PSI, you must install a valve rated to protect your piping.Specifically, the type of valve you need is a Pressure Relief Only valve.

These valves do not have the long probe/thermostat found in T&P Relief valves most commonly used for tank water heater applications. (Temperature and Pressure). Specifically, the type of valve you need is a Pressure Relief Only valve.

If you have an adjsutable relief valve, you must set the pressure to that which is recommended by the manufacturer of your pipes.

Power requirements: Breaker amp, wire size

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 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 local codes (Miami, FL) call for the use of a 60 amp breaker, and a #6 AWG wire gauge.

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.

You can install your Titan tankless water heater anywhere where an electric device/appliance would operate safely. You can install it right where your old heater used to be. What required is a minimum of 12" clearance from the top of the unit to the ceiling, and from bottom of unit to the floor. If it is safe to operate an electrical device in your crawl space, then it should be ok to install the tankless water heater there.

Titan N-10 can be installed anywhere where there is 110v of available power, including an RV. Most RV's have at least 110v electrical systems, therefore you will be able to install the Titan SCR2 N-10, as it requires 110v. If your RV supports 220v you could install our larger units that require 220v electrical service.
