What it delivers
The LiberLive REK11/13 11 kW Electric Tankless Water Heater is a compact electric tankless rated at 11 kW on 240 volts. Its listing gives a maximum flow of 2.6 GPM.
Worked out from its input, it delivers roughly 1.7 GPM when the water only has to rise 45°F, and 1.1 GPM at a 70°F winter rise: less than one 2 GPM shower in summer, less than one 2 GPM shower in winter. Size it to your fixtures.
At 240 volts 11 kW is about 46 amps. Whether your panel can carry it alongside heating and cooking loads is an electrician's call.
Electric tankless units need no venting and no gas, and work best where inlet water stays mild, because every degree of rise costs flow.
Other listed details: material: Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, Aluminum, Brass; model: REK11/13.
The listing gives dimensions of 7.9 in (W) x 11 in (H) and a weight of 5 lb.
