10 easy steps to installing your Chronomite

Remember that proper installation and maintenance of your instant water heater can optimize its energy efficiency and lifespan.

  1. Before starting the installation, turn off the breaker and disconnect the electrical supply to the area. Shut off water supply to the fixture. Double-check that everything has been turned off before proceeding.
  2. Access electrical connections in the unit by unscrewing and removing the front face plate. Keep screw in a safe place.
  3. Mount the unit in preferred location using heavy-duty metal screws, make sure to pull existing electrical wires through supplied hole at the back of the unit. Each of its corner has a mounting bracket.
  4. Connect electrical supply wires to the electrical connections from the unit. Make sure to securely tighten all connections.
  5. Close the front face-plate. Screw securely to close.
  6. Connect the Cold Water supply line from the water source to the bottom Cold/Hot inlet compression fitting opening on the unit. Chronomite Tankless Water Heaters require only one cold water intake. No need for excess lines.
  7. Connect the Hot Water supply line from the top Cold/Hot inlet compression fitting opening on the unit to the sink.
  8. Reopen water supply line to the unit. Turn on sink for 2 to 3 minutes to purge air from the lines (Note: water will not run at temperature until the breaker is turned back on in step #10).
  9. Screw the Flow Control Valve (supplied) onto the faucet/fixture head. An included adapter may be used for an exact fit (each box includes all necessary adapters).
  10. Once purged, turn on your breaker. Enjoy your new Chronomite Tankless Electric Water Heater at temperature.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)


I want to install the Chronomite heater in a vertical position.
Chronomite Tankless Water Heaters are built for horizontal installation. When properly installed, the heater will have the inlet and outlet on the right side of the unit when you are facing it. Installing vertically will risk a burn out of the heating coils and the heater will not be covered by warranty. Please refer to the Installation and Operation sheet for the water heater model you are installing.

I want to plug my Chronomite water heater into a wall outlet. Where is the plug?
Chronomite Tankless Water Heaters are U.L. listed. This means that the heater is required to be "hardwired" to a dedicated breaker. To gain optimum performance and keep the product under warranty, it must be installed in this manner. Please refer to the Installation and Operation sheet for the water heater model you are installing.

How do I decrease the water temperature coming from my Chronomite Tankless Water Heater?
The only heater in this Chronomite line that allows for adjustment is the Instant Temp models when supplied with a potentiometer that permits for a bypass of the factory preset. The SR model is designed to provide a predetermined temperature to the incoming cold water. The M model can be factory preset for consistent water temp.

May I install my Chronomite tankless water heater outside?
Chronomite Tankless Water Heaters are subject to freezing. For outdoor installation, it is recommended that the heater be installed in an enclosed manner that it may not be exposed to the elements. The heater should also be winterized like any other outdoor products that makes use of water.

Why is my heater tripping the breaker?
Confirm first that the heater has been hardwired to a non-GFI, dedicated breaker. Then check that the breaker size is appropriate for the heater being installed (Example: If it is a 30-amp water heater, a 30-amp breaker is necessary). Please refer to the Installation and Operation sheet for the water heater model you are installing.

Can I install my Chronomite Tankless heater in the ceiling?
Chronomite Tankless Water Heaters are built for point-of-use applications. For optimum use and performance, they should be installed within 18" from the point of use. Please refer to the Installation and Operation sheet for the water heater model you are installing.

Will a Chronomite Tankless water heater supply my whole house?
Chronomite Tankless Water Heaters are built for a point-of-use application. They are not built to provide hot water to a whole house.

What voltage is my heater and is it okay if it doesn’t match?
Chronomite Tankless Water Heaters are volt specific. For optimum performance and use, as well as to maintain warranty, the heater must be wired for the correct voltage. The voltage can be found on the label that is adhered to the unit's front.

What phase are your heaters?
Chronomite Tankless Water Heaters are single phase.

What size copper or flex tubing do I use?
3/8"OD as per installation instructions.

Are compression fittings supplied with the heater?
Two (2) compression fittings are supplied. They are 3/8" x.25" NPT.

What is the maximum operating temperature?
It is 140ºF in compliance with the Underwriter’s Laboratories listing.

Do I need the electricity applied to the heater to know if the heater will turn on?
Chronomite Tankless water heaters are pressure and flow activated. Turning on the faucet will enable the flow switch to make a faint click sound, with or without electricity.

Are Chronomite heaters ASSE 1070 certified?
ASSE 1070 is a mixing valve code pertaining to water temperature limiting devices. It is designed to limit incoming ultra-high hot water supply temperature (120°F - 180°F) to normal, tempered water temperatures (105°F - 110°F), to minimize scalding risk to the end user. Instantaneous water heaters cannot undergo certifications nor testing to this standard, since Chronomite heaters are built to heat incoming cold, ambient supply water only. As stated by American Society of Sanitary Engineering (ASSE) on their official letterhead, the ASSE standard is for water temperature limiting devices, and the various test procedures of this standard requires that the device must have a hot water inlet, a cold water inlet and a mixed water outlet. This standard is therefore not applicable to instantaneous electric water heaters and as such cannot be subjected to ASSE 1070 tests. We have a letter from both IAPMO and ASSE stating these facts on their respective letterheads. Chronomite has a list of manufactures that are certified for ASSE 1070; the good news is, not a single water heater company is on the list. Of course, the Instant-Temp models and Instant-Flow Micro utilize a microprocessor technology that allows for field-adjustable temperatures or factory preset, and can therefore be deemed as having an "anti-scald feature."

Do Chronomite Instant Temp heaters have the DOE Energy Star label/sheet? Are they compliant with the Federal Trade Commission's Energy Labeling Rule?
Although Chronomite Instant-Temp heaters are 99% energy efficient, they do not have these certifications.
