FAQ
Contact your local energy provider and inform them of your address. They will be able to let you know if you have 3 phase power available at your address.
You will need to check with your electrician to find out how much 3 phase power is available in "Amps per phase". The DHB-E 13 AU and DHB-E 13 SLi water heaters require 20 Amps per phase.
You will need to confirm the amperage supply to the hot water unit from the circuit breaker in the switchboard. Please contact us to confirm the appropriate instantaneous electric hot water system.
Underneath the dial that adjusts the temperature there is a flap that pulls forward and then drops down. A rating label is located up under the flap showing the model and size. Within the downloads section of the DHB-E 13 AU / DHB-E 13 SLi you can download a pdf showing you exactly where and how to locate this sticker.
The STIEBEL ELTRON DHB-E 13 AU instantaneous electric water heater delivers hot water not exceeding 50°C in accordance with AS3498, overcoming the need for a temperature control device in hygienic areas where hot water must be limited to 50 degree Celsius. The DHB-E 13 SLi instantaneous electric water heater can deliver up to 60°C hot water.
No, the DHB-E 13 AU hot water system delivers hot water not exceeding 50°C in accordance with AS3498, overcoming the need for a tempering valve in hygienic areas where the water must be limited to not exceed 50 degree Celsius.
The DHB-E 13 AU / DHB-E 13 SLi water heaters can be installed almost anywhere due to their compact size. The water heaters do not require ventilation, relief drains or safe trays so they can be installed in a cupboard, in the roof space, below the sink, in a service cavity, in a Euro laundry just to name a few options. If installing outdoors the hot water system must be protected from the elements by a protective covering such as a meter box.
The DHB-E 13 AU /Â DHB-E 13 SLi water heaters are designed to be installed as close as practical to the most used hot water outlet. Installing closer to the point of use can help to save water and energy by delivering hot water quickly to the outlet. The STIEBEL ELTRON three-phase electric instantaneous water heaters are designed to service multiple outlets located several metres away from the system.
Compared to a storage hot water unit an electric instantaneous water heater can be up to 30% more efficient. This is due to the water heater not storing any hot water and not having heat losses from storing a body of hot water.
