The Handyflow Slimline traditional vented oversink water heater has a depth of only 7" (180mm). Supplied complete with quarter-turn tap and 10" (250mm) spout, it is simple to install and is offers an effective, practical solution whenever time and simplicity are the key priorities. A key benefit is the thermal cut-out which can be re-set rather than having to be replaced. This feature is particularly useful when the heater is likely to be drained frequently (e.g. when fitted in Portacabins) which can potentially lead to the unit being operated with the element not immersed in water.
The Handyflow Slimline features:
The Handyflow Slimline is operated using straightforward temperature and flow controls.
As with all water heaters of this type, cold water entering from the inlet valve displaces the hot water stored in the tank. It is normal for the spout to drip slightly during the heating cycle, caused by the water expanding as it heats up. Over-tightening the tap will not stop the dripping and may result in damage.
Users with a requirement to serve more than one sink or to use regular taps should consider an unvented undersink water heater as an alternative to the Handyflow Slimline.
