ABSTRACT:
A continuous flow water heater assembly requiring no storage tank and including an entrance chamber having a flow control switch mounted therein adapted to be activated upon a positive flow of water through the system wherein the water flows from the entrance chamber to a plurality of heating elements each of which are at least partially segregated by virtue of their being removably mounted within separate heating chambers. The heating chambers are attached in fluid communication to one another by a plurality, at least two, ports which are of proportionately different sizes such that water will be passed between the first and second heating chambers in proportionately different amounts through the different sized ports. Water is thereby effectively distributed between the heating elements so as to prevent exposure of the heating elements when activated and thereby eliminating either of the heating elements from being exposed to air and thereby subject to burnout.
