- Flow Rate - Determine how many hot water appliances you'll use at once, and add up their flow rates, or gallons per minute, to calculate the total desired flow rate required of your tankless water heater.
- Temperature Rise - Subtract the incoming water temperature from the desired water temperature to calculate the required temperature rise. You can usually assume that the incoming water temperature is approximately 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
