Can I mount this water heater on an outside wall of the house? If not, which small Noritz tankless water heater would work (model number)?

Mine is mounted on a flat metal plate off a pipe fence. The waterer has two bolts in the back, so as long as you mount it to a board or metal flange, it will work. Hope this helps!

No, there is no provision for wall mounting. Be advised that the unit as shipped to me had a large hole in the flapper (unlike the picture in the ad) that effectively defeated the units purpose. I went to my local Ace Hardware store and bought a better one.

Yes, I have mine installed outside. It's a hard plastic shell with a metal bracket to attach to the wall. It's a very heavy duty system. Make sure to get the unit with the 1 inch outlets as it will not affect your water pressure at all. Overall I'm pleased with the units.

Not enough info to answer. The tank must be specific to the water heater and not to the R/V.

Sort of, but likely not really. I have two different water heating systems. works great with a tank system. My plumber contacted the manufacturer of my veisman tankless boiler/water heater and they strongly advised against using a recirc line and the pump. they said it would make the tankless unit run very often and likely short cycle, vs. a tank that cools a bit and then has to run a lot to reheat back to temp. I wouldn't do it on a tankless.

The line for the hot water is pretty skinny..1/4 inch i'd say. It's white. So that's a pretty small hole.. and you can run it along the baseboard/paint it same color as baseboard. Pretty easy to hide. If you're ambitious you could run it through the wall like a coax cable :)

Hi Harry, You have probably already have your answer, but I'll add my 2 cents. My sink in across the room from the toilet, so I couldn't really run a hot water line. I have a cold only connection and I haven't found that I have had any trouble with the temp., even here in Minnesota. If you can run a plastic or copper water line from the sink without crossing a walking space, it will work, but you will have to run the bidet a while for the heated water to reach it. I know that's not really a good solution, but short of hiring a plumber it's the best you can do. I hope this helped.

I also use mine for an outdoor shower. I did get some piping and installed it on top where the unit exhaust the heat. It stayed outside for a couple of years. I do recommend bringing it in for the winter. I didn't this year and even after draining there was a little water left in it and it froze and broke the unit. I bought an identical one. They work great for outdoor showers. The flame will sometimes go out if the wind gets high.

More important than how big your home is would be how close is the tankless heater to your point of use and how cold is the incoming water? I live in Florida, so the water is never very cold which helps the heater to work very well for me. If your incoming water is colder than 55*F, I would recommend a bigger unit than the N120.

For hot water you will probably have to go through the wall, or get extension pipes (what is provided is limited) and feed it to the vanity in the base boards. The other option if you just want to hook up a cold water source is to get a bidget with a heater.Hope that helps.

This heater is not made for a wall mounted thermostat. I'm sure a person who knew what they were doing could disassemble the unit and "rig" one up. The thermostat that is on the heater works pretty well.

I am no pro but I am a "handy" female and I installed one this weekend. Mounting was so easy it should not be a worry and The outside Tankless heater does not need venting so that was a big plus for me. There are Three things you must check you have before you start: #1 Must have 3/4 inch gas line (check for your model) for this model. I upgraded mine by replacing the T at the main pipe (Tankless needs the capacity so no cheating by using a reducer to size up from smaller capacity). #2 Must Get the Tankless Water Heater Service Valve Kit or you will not be able to service/clean it and save yourself heartache (it will break easier than standard HW heaters if not serviced regularly) I got mine at HD. #3 Needs 110 v electricity (I put in a light switch outside and put outside cover over it so we could turn it on/off as needed). One thing everyone should be aware of that can be a gotcha: There is a sensor which will not allow the unit start until all gas/water/electricity are hooked up and if you do try to start it before then (such as when trying to test the electricity to the thermostat like me), their is a sensor that will not allow it to start until everything is hooked up. The thermostat may not come on after doing this. It needed to be reset by turning the electricity to it on and off; I just used the GFI on the outlet on this electrical run to turn the electricity off and then back on to do a easy disconnection/reconnection of the electricity to thermostat which did the trick. The thermostat came back to life and it worked. Now my tenant is enjoying hot water. This guys installation videos were excellent and where I learned about the valves! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKhXoaRg6k4 Hope this helps. I will be getting mine inspected by the city as part of an existing permit for a remodel. Let you know if anything comes up after that, but it should not.

The owner's manual shows heater can be wall mounted or put directly on the floor, though it also states heater is designed to be mounted on the wall. Mine is wall mounted and I don't recall feet being included, plus the gas line comes out of the bottom so I don't know how the on-floor would work. Perhaps you could download a copy of the manual to get a better idea. Great little heater.
