Looking into fitting one of these at the far end of the house
where the run from hot water tank is excessive.

Found a 3kw one that looks ok.

Plumbing shouldn't be a problem.

Elecs - thinking 13a plugs are nono, so a spur to a FCU from a
nearby socket should do? Double pole switch?

Electrically, what do I need to check (& how) before proceeding?
Perhaps make sure the socket I would be spurring from is on a
circuit protected by a 32A breaker?
RCD "required"?

Er... Any other pointers please?


Just the one.

A undersink water heater is a lot better

eg

depending on your intended use.


Mmm don't think I need 15 litres to wash me pandies?! (Plus the £
spent keeping it hot)...


Kettle and washing up bowl?


Surely blokes never wash their hands after a pee ?


See the vid in post 6 from ARW...
