      Cool thanks man. On a funny note i didnt pay attention to the knobs and fired it up as is and it cranked up to 170 f instantly. About blew my faucets off. Got it dialed in tho

    6 “ clearance from single wall appliance exhaust vent to combustibles and high temp sealant around flange. Grade on the exhaust pipe is in order for the condensation of the exhaust products to drain away from the appliance

      I bought a thimble to go through the wall. I’ll pack it with Rock wool insulation as well as rock wool in the wall surrounding the thimble.

      ​@petertomasovszky136 so i bought a Camplux indoor water heater directly from the manufacturer. It's funny because they sent me 2 of them?? Haha. But the quality of the newer ones from Camplux is way better than older models. The inside parts are made out of copper. I love it. Anyways. Thanks for the video man.

      @@jessiedaniels6500I had to take mine apart since the heat exchanger froze the burst (my fault, didn’t drain the system for winter). I was also blown away by the build quality! More people should know about these cheap water heaters. Easy to install too

    You should have a temperature and pressure relief Saftey valve on any domestic hot water heating appliance

    • @mxslick50
      @mxslick50 Рік тому +2

      Wrong, all tankless MUST use a pressure only relief valve. There is no way that the temperature part of a standard T&P valve could accurately read the true temperature of a tankless units heat exchanger. (Which is a coil of pipe, NOT a tnak type vessel.)
      Now all TANK type heaters MUST have the T&P valve because a closed tank will explode under excessive pressure, but a temp sensing valve will open when the temp is too high, which will happen well before the pressure builds up.

      What does it do? Mine regularly throws an E6 error code (on the main display). That is a stuck fan error. I just whack it really hard and starts to work
