Designed for single sink applications, this model delivers strong temperature rise, continuous on-demand hot water, and exceptional energy efficiency, making it a reliable solution for demanding commercial installations.
Purpose-Built for 277V Commercial Systems
The DHC 6-3 Classic is designed to operate on 277V power, a standard in many commercial and institutional buildings. This ensures seamless integration into existing electrical infrastructure, while maintaining efficient performance and manageable amperage requirements.
With a 6.0 kW heating capacity, the unit delivers enhanced heating performance, making it well-suited for environments where consistent hot water output is critical, even with colder incoming water temperatures.
High Output for Demanding Applications
With its 6.0 kW capacity, the DHC 6-3 Classic supports higher temperature rise and improved flow performance compared to lower-wattage models. It is capable of delivering consistent hot water at flow rates up to approximately 1.0 GPM, depending on inlet conditions.
This makes it an excellent choice for:
- High-traffic commercial restroom sinks
- Office buildings and retail environments
- Healthcare and institutional facilities
- Applications with colder incoming water temperatures
Compact Design for Flexible Installation
Despite its high output, the unit maintains a compact, wall-mounted design, allowing installation directly at the point of use. This minimizes piping distance, reduces heat loss, and ensures near-instant hot water delivery.
Its small footprint makes it ideal for installation under sinks, inside cabinets, or in tight mechanical spaces.
