What it delivers
The GE GE04SNLPDG 3.5 kW Point-of-Use Tankless Water Heater is a point-of-use electric tankless rated at 3.5 kW on 120 volts. Its listing gives a maximum flow of 0.7 GPM.
At a 45°F rise (mild inlet water to a 120°F set point) it holds about 0.5 GPM, less than one 2 GPM shower; in winter, at a 70°F rise, about 0.3 GPM, less than one 2 GPM shower. Check your house in the planner.
At 120 volts 3.5 kW is about 29 amps. Whether your panel can carry it alongside heating and cooking loads is an electrician's call.
Point-of-use units go under or beside one sink, where a short pipe run means hot water in seconds.
