help Takagi TK-510U-E FAQ
How many bathrooms can the Takagi TK-510U-E serve?
Takagi describes the 199,000 BTU unit as capable of serving up to four bathrooms in warmer climates. Actual simultaneous flow falls when the heater must create a larger temperature rise.
Can the TK-510U-E be installed inside a house?
No, the E suffix identifies this as an outdoor model. Its combustion exhausts directly outside, so it is not a substitute for the indoor TK-510U-I.
Is the TK-510U-E a condensing water heater?
No, it is a non-condensing Series 200 heater. Unlike Takagi's condensing T-H3 models, it does not normally require a condensate drain.
Does the TK-510U-E meet low-emissions rules?
Yes, Takagi markets it as an Ultra-Low NOx model producing less than 14 ng/J, or below 20 ppm. That distinction matters in California air-quality districts that restrict higher-NOx gas appliances.
