This will replace a tradition H2O heater that is currently in an external shed attached to the house. Will this work even though there is no vent pipe

It must be vented. For an inside version, use B vent and follow your local building regulations. In our county, stainless vent pipe is not required.

This must be attached to the outside because it vents directly outside. You can get an inside version of this heater that will work inside you external closet. You will need stainless vent pipe.

unit needs to be mounted on exterior as that large opening is the vent, draft is at the bottom

Yes, the unit has to vented outside, heat air can go outside through the hose. the hose connect the machine and window kits. It is easy to setup. Thanks for your question.

Yes, I believe so provided the dimensions fit. Although it does not require outside ductwork, it does need to be vented into attic or have a return air vent. It's worked extremely well for our needs. I had read that if you do heavy stovetop cooking, such as wok-type, a different system would be better. The only other thing I can think of is that your soffit might be too high for effectiveness. Ours is 32" above stovetop. They had a model set-up at Lowes that might help you decide.

Yes, you do. All the specs for the vent pipe are in the instruction manual. And there is no pilot light to answer another question. It has an electric igniter. A pilot light would defeat the purpose of having an 'on demand' water heater. There are small window type openings that allow you to see a flame when the water heater is working.

Not sure. I had my electrician install this at my mother's house to replace the original one she had (house was built in the 50's). It vents directly outside from the kitchen (right above the stove) on the first floor. Check with your electrician, sorry I could not be more help.

Yes the unit needs to vent outside. The hose a about 6" diameter flex vent. Unit works great.

You have to have ductwork, just flexible metal hose to vent the wet air to the outside. Using it without that will do nothing for you or your bathroom.Rich

If your campground has a water hookup for your camper, this heater will work. I use a garden hose for the connection and have plenty of hot water. I've had mine for over 3 years, using it daily and have had zero problems. Don't let water drip inside the unit and keep an extra set of batteries. You will love this device!

I am no HVAC specialist, however, I believe this would work. The unit needs forced air as a carrier. As long as you can tap into this you should be OK. It does need access to you blower wiring. i.e. the unit kicks on when the furnace is heating, but will also kick on the blower to carry the steam even if the furnace is not firing up. Good Luck.

This unit has nothing to do with water. It needs 50 amps at 12 volts to operate. Just not feasible to use in a shed. If you have 120 or 220 electric to your shed, go with an electric or gas (propane or natural gas) space heater. I had a friend who made a small solar collector to heat water and used a cast iron radiator unit from an old house to heat this sized building (10x12, insulated). On sunny winter days he had to shut it down to control the temp inside. No pump, just natural circulation of heated and cooled water. (Science....OOOOH)

I don't see why not, but I used this model for a jacuzzi heater, so it did it's thing at the higher end of the range. You would need an external regulator I believe, as this one has an internal device that can't be accesssed or set.

Absolutely. It will need a professional stover to install it, with pipes going to the outside of the house. We love ours, and it is very efficient.

I don't see why not. It is a small heater element that goes into the drain hole and the thermostat is taped to the side of the hot water tank. It has an on/off switch that needs to be placed where it is accessible and needs to be plugged in. We got it for an old camper that was given to us and the heater was in pieces. Works nicely and much cheaper than a new gas heater.

Good question. All depends how much heat you have going out your pipe. If it has a automatic fan on it there may not be enough heat in the pipe to make enough heat for the fan to work. Joe

no the fittings are different you would need to down size the garden house with a few adapters and a new coupler.....you would be better off buying the ZODI hot water on demand unit that has a Battery driven pump and a gas fired coil that heats the water

The attic is not considered outdoors. Your water heater in the attic most likely has a vent pipe. To mount a tankless heaters indoors you would have to use double stainless ducting. More importantly you probably do not have a 3/4" or larger gas line at your your existing tank. The sizing of the gas line is critical to make the tankless work. Outdoors you can mount it near your gas meter and will need no ducting. You will also need a 120V circuit for the fan for the tankless. Takagi tankless heaters are the best! No problems when installed correctly.

I do not see any reason why it shouldn't.If the heater is constantly used and is quite old, you should consider a replacement.
