The water is heated in the unit, the hand control lets you set the temp to your desired temperature. NO need for a hot water line. We have this unit on 3 of our bathrooms. really love it. Just one thing to know if you ever have a power outage you need to reset the button on the side of the seat. We live in an area with frequent outages first time we thought it caused damage. Just a push on the power seat button and we were functioning again.

Just a cold water line and an electrical outlet. It heats the seat and heats the water at separate temperatures. LOVE IT!!! Very easy to install, not much more than installing a normal toilet seat.

I don't think so. There are hot/cold water supplies lines and that's all. Sorry

No, the machine does not have a heating element. The water must be as hot as possible before adding it to the tank.

You just need a constant supply of water to the heater whether it comes from the on-demand water pump or some other constant source of water. Make sure the tank is full of water before turning it on.

You only need a single cold water line. It comes with a splitter, so then one line goes into the tank and one into the bidet. If your current tank supply line is not removable from the external shutoff valve, you will need a new shutoff valve (which means that you will need to shut off the water in your whole house). That's about the only possibility that would make the installation slightly less easy.

there are a hot and cold line that come out of the base. They are labeled. I had to get extension lines for mine to reach my existing water lines.

Yes, there is a panel in the heater where you can adjust the temperature to your needs. If your house is big, install a recirculating motor which will give you hot water instantly. You may disable the motor when hot water is not needed.

Installation is easy! you will need power and water. you do not need a hot water line. I bought this replacing an older Toto model which was about 14 years old so the installation was quite easy. all you do is plug it in to the outlet, secure the seat to the toilet bowl and attach the water line to the water source!

Hot and cold. But you don't have to hook up the hot supply line, that way it will just be cold.

no,keep it simple buy what is designated for your heater read info. on this one,just in case here it is,Don't buy this one unless you buy a new water heater and have someone qualified to run a new line that is 240v(10,000 watts, 40 amps, 250 volts, 60Hz capacity)

No. That would require an input for both hot and cold water lines. This has only one input.

Yes the water is boiling you will see steam come from the unit. Just add cold water or from the faucet or bottled.

I have installed three of these over the last few years. I install mine in the hot water line. If you used enough hot water from the tank, then the water entering would be warm coming from your existing hot water system. I have had no problems with this hookup.

It all depends on how "hot" your water heater is and how cold your line is coming in from the street. If your water heater is less than 125 degrees Fahrenheit, you'll get a cooler water than warm.

I guess you can, but why do you need this unit if you already have a hot water source?

Heating is via AC Power, but once it is unplugged you can still dispense via battery control. Insulation keeps the water at usable temperature for a while.
