ABSTRACT:
A unitary electric resistance "in line" tankless water heater for interconnection to an electric power supply conduit, a cold water inlet line and a hot water supply line. The heater includes three separate stacked compartment sections of matching circular configuration and formed of molded nonconducting plastic material. A lower field wiring compartment includes in its side wall the mounting port for interconnection of the power supply conduit and encloses a terminal block interconnected to the power leads of the supply conduit. An upper water heating compartment encloses a circular heating coil element and includes in its top cover member a cold water inlet port and a hot water outlet port for interconnection, respectively, to the cold water inlet line and the hot water supply line. An intermediate compartment encloses a microswitch which is electrically interconnected to the power leads via the terminal block in the lower compartment and to the terminals of the heating coil in the upper compartment. A water flow sensing mechanism within the upper compartment, upon sensing water flow between the cold water inlet port and the hot water outlet port, actuates the microswitch within the intermediate compartment thereby energizing the heating coil to produce hot water based upon the flow demand therefor.
