The SCR2, work horse of the Titan line of products, has been a satisfactory electronic tankless heater throughout the United States. Used with great satisfaction along the sunbelt or southern portion of the United States, the N-120 can be used in multiple configurations to provide a greater heat rise for our customers in the colder, northern areas of our country. One N-120 Titan can be used in applications supplying one shower or possibly a faucet and a shower with water restricting shower heads of 1.5 gpm. The heat rise for the N-120 is around 95^o F in one gallon per minute and 64^o F in 1.5 gallons per minute. So, you can see that the heat rise in a single Titan N-120 is restricted to less than 1.5 gpm if the incoming water temperature is 45-50^o F. The solution in the past could be resolved with different Titan heaters and configurations of those heaters. For instance:

• Two Titan heaters can be arranged in parallel where the incoming cold water pipe is bifurcated into a supply for each heater. Shut off valves on each cold water supply and each output side of the hot water supply assures a backup to the overall system.  If one Titan N-120 fails and needs repair then the second Titan N-120 could be used as a single heater for the home. The parallel arrangement or configuration allows a greater flow or volume on the outlet or hot water side. Each requires a separate two pole, 60 amp circuit breakers. You should have a two hundred amp service for this arrangement. Use the heat rise chart vs. gallons per minute to help evaluate your needs or situation. Use of a water restricting shower head with as little as 2.0 gpm is very useful.

• Another configuration uses a Titan unit such as the N-120 SCR2 in tandem with a smaller SCR2 unit.  The smaller unit can be a "pre-warm" heater which passes along warmer water to be further heated by the next in-line N-120, etc.  Again, the use of water flow restricting devices help slow the flow of water through the heaters to give a better heat rise to that water.

• After more than two decades of great success and customer satisfaction with the Titan-ETH, Titan-SCR and Titan-SCR2, it was decided by the Titan manufacturer that it was time to increase the Titan family of tankless water heaters. Additions such as multiple body sprayers, multiple shower heads and whirlpool baths required a larger capacity tankless water heater. Another reason was our customers in the northern part of this country and Canada required a higher rise in temperture to heat the water instantly. The new Titan SCR4 is sold here at Titan Tankless Heater in the 18 and 21 kW models. These units can be used in a wide range of applications both in residential and some commercial applications. One SCR4 unit can supply most if not all hot required and in some applications, energy savings can actually pay for the unit in less than one year. The manufacturer brochure you get with your new Titan says that the SCR4 models will save up to 50% of the cost of heating water over your old tank style water heater. Note that not every home is the same and not every plumbing requirement can be expected to work the same. Some people require additional tankless units depending on their hot water use and the incoming cold water supply. As an internet supplier we sell heaters to home and business owners. This is your tankless water heating project.  Ask questions and research out your options.

• The tankless water heaters are very useful to users of solar power as a backup unit. Check with your solar dealer for details on configuration.

• A Titan tankless unit can be configured to your home's heating system but the heater must not be set above 90⁰ F.

See the following heat rise chart to determine your needs in hot water supply. The cold months of the year will be the time of year that you should be concerned with in determining your heat rise requirements. Your ability to make hot water any area of the world is determined by:

• Incoming water temperature

• Size of your Titan and its power level

• Flow or volume going through your tankless heater. As a higher volume of water goes through a tankless, the cooler the heated water becomes. (Very important to remember). Use water restricting shower and faucet heads is recommended if needed.

The northern, blue areas can use the N-120/N120's parallel or N-120 in tandem with a smaller Titan unit or the newer SCR4 Titan models.

Use of professional installers is recommended. Local code requirements should be considered. CSA in Canada does not recognize the installation of the Titan line in Canada at this time.  Do not over heat water.  Water temperature from 105^o F to 120^o F is adequate for all practical purposes. The Titan products carry a 10 year warranty on all water carrying components and all other parts are guarantied for one year. Installation is quick and easy. Installation can be anywhere, but preferably as close to the hot water user area as possible. The Titan products are cold when not in use....protect from the elements.  All of the examples of Titan tankless configurations are useful, but consult with a professional plumber and electrician for installation. In some state more than one tankless water heater may be required.

And, finally...the electrical requirements of the Titan Tankless Water Heater products.
