Looks Like We Have A Winner
I installed the Reliance 2.5 gallon water heater at my store just over a week ago. The unit comes with a very short power cord with a standard 3-prong plug. They recommend that you not use an extension cord to connect it, but I bought a short 12-guage cord to reach the nearest outlet and it seems to work fine. The 1/2 inch male connections are the same as the standard connections on a faucet, so that simplifies matters. I installed it under the sink using a 3/8 inch T attached to the cold water line coming from the wall. I ran one leg of the T straight to the cold water valve, then ran the other into the input on the water heater. The only nonstandard bit was the line from the heater output to the hot water valve, which was 1/2 inch on both ends rather than the customary 3/8 at the wall to 1/2 inch at the valve. Used plumber's tape on all the connections and none of them leaked a drop when I turned the water back on.

Works like a champ thus far. If the thing holds...

Nice compact water heater
This little 2.5 gallon heater is just what I needed for a half bath with no place to hide a water heater. It looks good and fits in an out of the way corner. I have it mounted on a wall with the included bracket and hardware. Plumbing connections on top for easy access and instalation. The thermostat is located conveniently on the front and there is a monitor light to show when the heater is on. The price was reasonable, so if this water heater has a reasonable life span it will be a great value.


If you have to wait for hot water, you will not regret this purchase!
I purchased this product because my kitchen sink was about 30' from my main hot water heater. It would literally take about a minute and a half to get hot water. After going through a couple of dishwashers (they don't make them like they used to), I decided a couple of years ago to just wash dishes by hand. I connected the input to my existing hot water line at the shutoff valve and then I connected the output to my faucet where the original line had been connected. I wired the old dishwasher line to a GFCI receptacle and then plugged this unit into the GFCI receptacle. I would have needed only one supply hose, but decided to replace the two old plastic supply hoses with reinforced hoses. My only hitch was purchasing 3 hoses that had 1/2 inch ends, whereas my cutoffs needed 3/8 inch connectors. The hot water heater and the faucet used 1/2 inch connector ends. The unit sits underneath my cabinet and was a little deeper than expected, but I still have plenty of space for kitchen...
