Manual on-demand Water Heater



Spent some time trying to figure out the whole "Why is there no hot water?" thing until I was turned onto the "water heater" set-up.  Top slide is the on-off and the bottom slide is how hot you want it.  The highest setting would potentially allow someone to brew tea or coffee----or give 2nd degree burns.


Following the wiring to the wall I noticed a wiring block with screw terminals....

....with exposed 220vac electricity.  Guess I'll not splash a lot in this shower or I'd really get a jolt to wake up in the morning:)

Actually a very nifty concept, individual on-demand water heaters, which allows a tremendous energy savings----just needs to be tweaked a bit  to ensure a bit more safety.
