An efficient and easy to install point-of-use water heating solution
Chronomite Mini Tank water heaters may be used in most point-of-use and under-the-counter applications. Models CMT-1.3, CMT-2.5, CMT-4.0 and CMT-6.0 were designed to supply hot water to all hand wash and kitchen sinks within a residential, industrial, or commercial environment. These heaters can replace central hot water heaters to conserve water and reduce energy waste. Chronomite Mini Tank water heaters are compact, lightweight, and designed to be easily mounted on the wall.

Frequently Asked Questions ("FAQ")
Q1: What are the temperature settings for the dial on the front of the unit?
A1: The dial has four positions: Snowflake (*), 1, 2, 125°F, and Max.
≈ The Snowflake setting is 50°F. This setting will protect water in the tank and pipes inside the unit from freezing.
≈ The 1 settings is approximately 105°F, but can vary a few degrees.
≈ The 2 settings is approximately 113°F, but can vary a few degrees.
≈ The Max setting is 140°F.
Q2: How long will the hot water last until running out, for the 2.5 gallon model?
A2: The answer depends on a few factors:
• your incoming cold water temperature
• the tank temperature setting (which can be set from 50°F to 140°F, 10°C to 60°C)
• the flow rate of the point of use. For example, if you are using it with a kitchen sink, then the flow rate is typically 1.25 GPM. If bathroom sink, then the flow rate is typically 0.5 GPM, less than half of a kitchen sink, and makes a big difference.
• how much cold water you are mixing in to get your preferred output temperature
Let's assume that your incoming water temperature is 70°F, tank temperature setting is at the maximum 140°F, it is installed under a kitchen sink, and you are mixing cold water at the faucet to get a skin-comfortable output temperature of 105°F (not scalding hot 120°F for example). Given all that, then the hot water will last about 2.5 minutes.
