Moved into a newly built house with a tankless heater. The heater is only about 10ft from master bath, and maybe 50 ft from kitchen. It takes several minutes to get water to kitchen and 2-3 mins to get hit water in master bath sink. But, in both cases once i get hot water, i lose it. Via the remite controller, i can see that the heater shuts off once i mix in a little cold water. Water stays hot though in shower.
Builder plans to replace the circuit board. I think that might nit be the problem. I notice the specs on the unit sa that at flow rate of 0.5 gpm the heater will not turn on, and on e on will go off if kess than 0.4 gpm. So I am thinking it is actually the plumbing itself that may be the problem, not the heater.
Possible? Likely?
But since house is already built & being lived in is there anything that can be done?
thnks
