The heater offers truly outstanding levels of tankless water heater innovation and efficiency. Manufactured by Stiebel Eltron, a pioneer and leader in tankless water heating technology for over 90 years, the Tempra Trend is capable of providing consistent hot water to several fixtures at once while reducing energy usage. And unlike tankless water heaters from other companies, Tempra Trend models feature a memory preset that makes it easy to return to your ideal water temperature at the push of a button. With the Tempra Trend, you’ll enjoy endless hot water, unrivaled efficiency, and the utmost in comfort.

Every Tempra also has self-modulation. Self-modulation is sometimes confused with flow control, but it has more to do with the amount of energy used to heat the water. Self-modulation, sometimes call auto-modulation, ensures that only the least amount of energy is used at all times. Every Tempra model continually monitors incoming water temperature, the flow rate of water through the heater, and the water temperature it produces. These sensors feed their readings into the unit’s proprietary microprocessor control which engages the heating elements in stages, as efficiently as possible, to achieve the water temperature set on the front panel, always using the least amount of energy necessary to heat the water.

While only Tempra Plus has Advanced Flow Control, every Tempra has smart microprocessor technology and several temperature and flow sensors. This technology ensures a steady output temperature even if flow rates vary up or down, like when hot water is being used and an additional tap is opened or closed. Tankless electric water heaters from other manufacturers don’t maintain a steady temperature if the flow varies. A Tempra always does. Our exclusive Electronic Temperature Control allows setting the knob on the front cover to the water temperature desired and getting that temperature every time, and all the time, hot water is needed.

A Stiebel Eltron Tempra responds directly to your demand for hot water without interruption. Showers will always be hot, even if there are several taken in a row and they run long. A tank water heater may be able to deliver more water all at once, but once the tank starts to deplete things get cold and pretty quickly come to a standstill while waiting for the tank to recover. By installing a Stiebel Eltron Tempra, you will free up several square feet of floor space that your bulky hot water tank is now using. Also, due to their small size, they use vastly less raw material to manufacture compared to a tank. Disposal of a tankless has a much lower environmental impact, and all major components are recyclable.

A Stiebel Eltron Tempra doesn't cost any more to purchase than a conventional tank water heater. Installation is often cheaper. Because storing water at high temperatures shortens the lifespan of a conventional tank water heater, Stiebel Eltron tankless units also have a longer service life, saving you money by reducing how often replacement is necessary.

Large and bulky hot water tanks are usually placed in a basement or utility room. Because the tank may not be close to where hot water is used, there is a wait for hot water. A Tempra’s compact design can be installed close to the hot water taps. When this can be done, in new construction for instance, the wait for hot water becomes as short as possible. Even in a retrofit, where it might not be possible to place a Tempra closer to the hot water draw-off points, its considerably smaller size has many advantages.

Because a Tempra is a tankless water heating system, it is not subject to seismic building code. There is no need for the preventative construction required with a tank water heater. Tempra Trend tankless water heaters can be set to limit the maximum hot water temperature to 109°F. This can be important in some installations to prevent the possibility of scalding.

We have done our homework. As an international leader in the tankless electric water heating industry, Stiebel Eltron is proud to have pioneered this technology. The company's German engineering and manufacturing tradition of excellence means that you can depend on its performance for many years to come.
