Overview

Electronic ignition lights the burner only when hot water is called for, so the Eccotemp heater runs without a standing pilot flame. Temperature is set on an LED display behind a black tempered glass panel, and the unit hangs on a wall with horizontal venting.

On-demand heating and automatic temperature control reduce the energy a standing pilot would burn. Child lock and an energy saving mode add sensible control for families. The listing gives two different flow figures, and the unit needs both a gas line and a nearby outlet.

Who it's for

Homeowners with a natural gas supply and an indoor wall near an outlet can add on-demand hot water with this compact unit. Propane households, outdoor installs and homes at high elevation are outside what the listing supports.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Fires on demand, no pilot light
  • Tempered glass front with LED controls
  • Child lock and energy saving mode
  • Horizontal vent kit in the box
Cons
  • Flow rating differs between listing fields
  • Natural gas only, no propane option
  • Needs an electrical outlet near the wall
  • Vertical venting kit not listed

Performance notes

Output depends on how far the incoming water must be raised in temperature and how many taps run at once, since a tankless burner heats only what flows through it. Electronic ignition fires on demand, so there is no stored hot water to run out, only a flow ceiling.
