Product Information

Full details

The Heatrae Sadia Hotflo 15 Litre Instant Water Heater is an ideal solution for homeowners and facility managers seeking a reliable, compact hot water supply for kitchens, utility rooms, or bathrooms. By providing mains-pressure hot water directly at the point of use, it significantly reduces wait times and improves daily convenience. While its space-saving design is perfect for under-sink or cupboard installation, users should be aware that the 15-litre capacity is best suited for low-to-medium demand applications rather than supporting multiple high-flow shower points simultaneously.

FAQs

Can I install this unit myself?

No, this is an unvented water heater that requires professional installation by a qualified engineer to comply with building regulations.

Is this suitable for a shower?

The 15-litre capacity is generally too small for a full shower experience, though it is excellent for hand basins or kitchen sinks.

How long does it take to heat up?

The recovery time depends on the incoming water temperature, but the unit is designed for rapid delivery for point-of-use applications.

Does it need a cold water storage tank?

No, this is an unvented unit designed to connect directly to the mains water supply.

Where should the unit be mounted?

It is designed to be wall-mounted, typically inside an under-sink cupboard or a utility cabinet.

Troubleshooting

Water is not reaching the desired temperature

Check the thermostat setting on the unit and ensure the power supply is consistent.

Reduced water flow at the tap

Inspect the inlet filter for debris or mineral buildup and ensure the mains stopcock is fully open.

Water dripping from the relief valve

This is normal during the heat-up cycle due to thermal expansion; if it persists constantly, consult a qualified plumber.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Space-saving footprint ideal for cupboards
  • Maintains mains-pressure water flow
  • Includes essential installation kit
  • Reduces waiting time for hot water
  • Suitable for various point-of-use applications

Cons

  • 15-litre capacity limits volume for heavy use
  • Requires professional installation for unvented systems
  • Not intended for whole-home water supply

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation must be performed by a qualified professional due to the requirements of working with unvented pressure systems. The unit is designed for wall-mounted installation, typically inside a cabinet to keep the plumbing hidden yet accessible. Regular maintenance involves checking the pressure relief valve and ensuring the inlet screen remains clear of debris. Because it is an unvented system, ensure that the expansion vessel and safety valves are inspected annually to comply with safety regulations and maintain optimal efficiency.
