The Stiebel Eltron SHC-6 mini-tank point-of-use water heater is ideally suited for supplying hot water to bathroom sinks, kitchens, commercial washrooms, and a wide range of other small applications where only a small amount of hot water is required at a time. Due to its small dimensions, the SHC-6 easily fits under the sink or in an adjacent cupboard or closet, so it provides hot water to the point of use almost instantly. By locating the heater right next to the point-of-use, you can also reduce thermal heat loss commonly associated with long pipe runs. You also eliminate the need to run a hot water line all the way from the main central water heater, saving you significant money in plumbing and material cost, if the SHC-6 can supply all of the hot water needs for the room.

The Stiebel Eltron SHC-6 Mini Tank Water Heater comes complete with a glass lined tank and high quality insulation in order to substantially reduce stand-by heat loses. Lightweight and small in size, the SHC-6 mounts directly to a wall or the side of a cupboard with a sturdy included mounting bracket. Once the unit is full of water, simply plug it into a standard 110-120V electrical outlet. No special wiring is necessary as it uses only an 11 AMP electrical current draw!

Temperature & Pressure (T & P) valve included.

• 6.0 Gallons
• 45 Minute Recovery Time

Stiebel Eltron SHC 6 Mini Tank Reviews

Excellent service - fingers crossed for longevity
We had to replace a 3 yr-old same unit with pin hole leaks. Spoke to the right people and a replacement is now in. Warranty replacement was super efficient. E-Tankless are the only people to buy Stiebel-Eltron through in Canada. They are the Canadian agent and make life easy. - John - Toronto

Stiebel Eltron 2.5 mini tank heater (2.5 gallons)
Great product. Saved us on our electric bill big time as we now don\'t have to wait for hot water to circulate from the main 40 gal water tank in the basement. We installed another one in the shop for clean up there.Very pleased with the unit. - Maddison

Stiebel Eltron 2.5 Tankless water heater - Point of service
Easy to handle, no problems so far. Two months. Still requires a leak pan and drain to be installed by code. - Bernard Chip Bowness

A great purchase!
A brand new house, but one where they didn\'t think about how long hot water takes to get to the kitchen. This is the most compact unit I could find to fit in the sink base. Super easy installation: a couple of water lines and an electrical plug. Now instant hot water, and plenty of it! If you\'re thinking of buying this unit, stop thinking and DO IT! You\'ll wonder why you waited so long. - David U

Stiebel Eltron SHC 4 Mini Tank water heater.
I love it. I now have hot water in my kitchen after 3 seconds instead of 3-4 minutes, as the hot water heater is so far away. It heats very fast, so, I probably could have used the 2 gallon one which would have taken less space. \r\ni am so happy to have hot water quickly. You have no idea what a nuisance it is to have to run 2 gallons to get hot water and then when it is off for 10 minutes you have to do it again. Thank you to Jessie from Stiebel For her help and guidance with finding the one which would work in my house with my wiring. - Toni Loo

Do You Have Hard Water?

Hard water treatment helps maintain performance and efficiency, ensures optimal water flow and pressure, and protects your heater from pre-mature failure due to mineral build-up inside the heating module and other components.
