[Shop-talk] instant water heater

[Pat Horne]

I have installed a few tankless units over the years 220v & propane. I’d suggest you run heavy enough wire to support the highest current that might be needed just in case. Both will require 2 conductors plus ground. 

An alternative might be a small (1-2 gallon) tank type heater that you turn on when you start work. It can be plugged into a 120v outlet. 

Peace, Pat

Tired of water in my shop sink being so cold in the winter that my fingers lock up when I wash my hands...Thinking
about a tankless water heater... Will have limited use, not like a unit in a home and it can't break the bank.
 
110 v vrs 220 v. ??  I can wire both but it's a pain to do in a cramped attic and 76 year old body...
 
what's best ??  suggestions ??
 
thanks
