can this unit be turned on without electricity

I would not attempt to use the unit without electricity. The unit works like a forced air heating system. You have the burner train and air is force through the flames to produce heat at the outlet.

No! I would not recommend this heater. Very hard to light. Totally aggravating. Their quality control must be terrible or nonexistent, maybe both. I had problems with it from the start.

I don't believe so because the unit has a very powerful fan inside. I'll bet it is designed to not come on without the fan because of too much heat build-up. This unit throws a lot of heat. 35 degrees outside and it will heat my 3 car garage in about 20 min.

I'm sure you could, but at the rate this thing sucks down power it'll cost you some money. I had mine plugged into a "thermo cube" and let it turn on and off unsupervised.

You can leave the inverter on all the time. It does use a couple of watts when there is no solar input, but that is not a problem.

Only at the mains. This is a whole house meter. They have plug in appliance modules that you can turn the unit on or off

It requires electricity. The remote is battery operated, but the unit has to be plugged into the wall.

No, Unfortunately this unit is only operable under 120V power source. You can use a converter to run this on 220V but you need to purchase the converter seperately, as we do not sell those.

Yes. Unit does not have a on/off switch so it must be unplug to turn it off. My 93 year mother keeps her 2 units plugged all the time without any problems.

Sure you can. But you will not need to keep it plugged in. It should do the job without a recharge.

Regardless of whether there is an on/off switch I would suggest unplugging the unit when not being used for an extended period. This is a 120VAC unit and should be plugged into a receptacle rather than being hard wired.

It doesn't require electricity. I bought it for my daughter and she loves it.

No. Once the unit is turn off, it will not turn on with out pushing the power button on the "key pad" or remote. If you unplug it for example, while it's on, when you plug it back in it needs to be physically turned on with the power button.

This product does not have an on/off switch. Plugging the unit into the wall is the only way to turn it on.

It is not at all powered by electricity. There is a battery operated monitor but I don't think that would be an issue. We don't use that feature anyway.

I don't think so. It works off of electricity and there's no manual switch available.

No this water heater needs to be plugged into an outlet to work, so if the power is out then its useless. If you are looking for one that might work in a power outage try the bosch line. I had an older model bosch that didn't require electricity to operate.

the unit works without a timer but will use alot of electricity, we have it on a cheep plug in timer to go on before we get up and go off a few hours after we shower. Great unit easy to install

I cannot say for sure but I think that anytime the power is lost the units would shut off and would manually have to be turned on. To be sure I would call Manufacturer Sorry I couldn't help.
