Could two bathrooms work at the same time with the water heater, maintaining the same temperature ?

need more information, Are you wanting to supply two sinks and two showers?These type of water heaters require the use of low flow aerators for the faucet and shower heads or the water will not get very warm. The water heater should also be installed a close to sink or shower (point of use) to get hot water quicker. If you are wanting to service two showers then I would say that this unit is not large enough.

I use a Tempra Plus unit for my house. It works perfectly for 2 bathrooms. It is listed as a whole house unit. My 6-2 I use for my barn. It is capable of giving me enoughwater for a single use

Not really but I believe it is because I do not have a pump to help power the water pressure. The bathroom closest to the water heater receives a constant temperature but the second bathroom has fluctuations in the temperature.

Very unlikely. These ondemand heaters are location and flow specific. In some cases they even have to be "tuned" to the flow conditions of the particular user point. If the the user points were very close together, say back to back then maybe but problems may likely arise if both user points were in use simultaneously.Contact the Stiebel tech support for help with your particular needs.

Same bathroom? Whichever one has the most room under the sink. It's going to keep water circulating so that both sinks, as well as the other fixtures in your house have hot water more quickly. I have mine in the kitchen, which was my major problem area, which now gets much faster hot water and the bathroom that is in line with it has instantaneous hot water and the bathroom on a different branch is much improved. It's also easy enough to move if you decide another spot would be better later.

No. Only one zone will be active at a time (it's a water pressure issue really). You can set them all at the same time, but they'll end up running back to back.

Our experience is YES, the Stiebel Eltron Tempra 24 Plus will supply enough hot water to draw baths (or showers) for two people simultaneously. The unit is rated as a "whole house" tankless water heater for a two bedroom house or condo, but two simultaneously open hot water taps basically reaches the production capacity of the unit (about the same as a 40-50 gallon conventional tank water heater). There are many variables...the efficiency/production of the unit depends upon the temperature (coldness) of the incoming supply. If your tap water is at 35-40F, then the unit will not produce as much hot water flow as it would, if your incoming tap water supply was at 50F, as it takes the two little "boilers" inside the unit longer to heat very cold tap water to the set temperature and the "flow"/volume of hot water is "reduced" accordingly. The temperature that you set the unit at is also a factor...if the unit is set "low" at say 105F then the effect will be that you will seem to not have as much hot water, because you will not be mixing in very much cold water at your bath spigot or your shower head. We set our unit at 126F, because our dishwasher recommends an incoming hot water supply of 125F, and this works out well for us. We are just two people in a two bedroom house and this unit is sized perfectly for us and always delivers and supplies our hot water demands, plus the hot water flow is "endless", as the unit will continuously heat water to the set temperature as it flows through it...one can wash load after load of clothes in hot water, or a football team could take showers one after another and there would always be hot water. Plus, the unit very, very efficiently uses electricity to heat water, much more efficiently than a conventional tank-type electric water heater.

The heater has a GFI switch and is really made for a bathroom I believe. I have use the unit hanging and free standing.

Yes, but depending on the wattage of your unit, and the temperature you set, the pressure may go down. My children take showers at the same time while doing laundry and have no problems.

It is possible to get them to work at the same time but only by very careful adjustment with the selection valve, the water flow from each will be low. I don't think it was designed to work that way.

Hello Kim, Thank you for your question. You've provided one key piece of information we need to answer the question, the incoming water temp. But we also need to know which hot water points of use that you might use at the same time, and the flow rates of each. Let's assume they are one shower at 1.5 GPM and one sink at 1 GPM. That's a total flow rate of 2.5 GPM. This heater provides a temp increase of 40F at 2.5 GPM. 45F + 40F = 85F. Therefore, the 10L is way too "small" of a tankless heater. We recommend the 16L which gives a 57F temp increase at 2.5 GPM. 45F + 57F = 102F which is slightly hot water for most people. Kind Regards, Ross GadgetsGo

No, not really, it only has one inlet so if you intend to use hot water it will need to be "mixed" upstream of the shower, and you won't have any control of the outlet temp.

This model will run the fan and the heater at the same time. If your room is good size I would not recommend this product.

Yes it can. You can't mix the settings though. For instance, head shower and hand shower cannot be used simultaneously. But when using any setting individually you have ability to change the strength of the flow

Yes. I have one and use it for a two shower head system. I can select between either shower heads or both at the same time. When using both, there is a slight water pressure drop. The temperature control is the rotation of the lever and the volume is controlled with pushing and pulling the lever. The top lever select the output. Also my favorite thing about this valve is that flushing the toilet won't make the shower colder or hotter.

I can run both of my showers at once without a problem, and I have two really high-flow shower heads, so if you have anything modern that's regulated down to 2.5gpm, I'm sure you could do at least three--probably at least four--without a problem. Also, my unit is set to 120 degrees, but you can set a dip-switch inside the unit to take it up to 140 degrees, which would allow for even more.

You would need a separate fixture. This only regulates temperature and flow.

It depends. I use 2 because of the layout of the bathrooms. Put one valve at the farthest point from water heater and see how it works at other locations. You'll know if you need others

We like it. We never run out of hot water, but flow/pressure is low coming out of the water heater. It wouldn't work to have 2 people taking a shower at the same time in different bathrooms (we have a 2 bath house), but we don't really ever have need for that. we have used it 6 months and are satisfied with it.

Yes however you must have good water pressure going in to do so once you get the selected temp, there is a water saver device in the unit that will control the flow but should work fine
