I bought one 3 years ago and paid about $150. Here is one I found for only $70. It looks similar.

Do you mean to say that you have a 240 volt 50 amp?
I don’t think you can pull 50 amps from 120 volt.

I have one very similar that I use to heat the finish room in my shop.
Works well. I think mines 6800watts but same concept. I run it on the 3000 watt setting unless the outside temp drops below 20.

Emery,

The storage unit has a fifty amp RV plug that the Avion plugs into just like campgrounds.

I thought about this a bit and remembered that that plug supplies a 40 amp circuit breaker which is actually two 20 amp circuits:

If you wire the two leads to the heater from the two side terminals of the 4 prong plug you will get 240 volts that is needed.

I would just put a 240 volt breaker into the electrical box (30 amp should be enough) and mount another outlet near where you’ll mount the heater. Or, you can mount a wire directly to the heater and not use a plug.

Hi all,

I followed Ray's example and put in the tankless water heater very similar to him. I just plugged off the two coolant lines in the bath area. However I would like to remove them at some point to avoid the mishaps mentioned above. Does anyone have an idea where they originate from? I know it sounds like a stupid question but I would like to avoid tracing the lines myself.

Emery,

"Tanks" ;-)

When I click on the link: https://www.ruralking.com/heater-240v-garage-wlmnt-5000w.html

I get: Access To Website Blocked

I guess that their website sees I'm in Australia?

Would you please send me the companies name, address, email, and phone number.

When I did a search for Rob I saw the Amazon one but it is essentially the same as the RuralKing one except for the price.
Amazon is $119.95 with free shipping while Rural King is $69.99 plus shipping. If you buy $99 from Rural King you get free shipping.

Emery,

Yes, but apparently Rural King blocks their web-site to non-US IP ranges,
and Rob couldn't follow the Rural King link and needed to know what the
device actually was. Now that he can see that, he can find out how to buy
it for delivery to Houston.

But I think I missed the point. I think he wanted to know how to reach
Rural King by telephone, given that web access wasn't working. Their number
is 1-800-561-1752.

Address:
RuralKing.com
4216 DeWitt Avenue
Mattoon, IL 61938

And I can't find an email address.
