Buying Considerations

When choosing a model the wattage kW must match the size of your shower For example a small 3x3 shower usually requires a 6kW unit while larger master showers may need 9kW to 12kW 2 4 If your walls are made of natural stone like marble or granite you will need a more powerful generator because stone absorbs heat faster than ceramic tile 1
