Bought one of these AE125's from Home Depot only to find out I didn't have sufficient power to run it ... requires 3 separate 40 Amp 2-Pole Circuit Breakers and Six #8 Awg Wires + Ground (Min. 200 Amp Breaker Panel ... I had only one 220 amp circuit available ... not enough juice for this heater ... now I am stuck with unit as Home Depot would not accept returns on water heaters.

This is a great unit, it was recommended to me from a friend. However, turns out my electrical is too old and can't handle the power needed without a [...]upgrade to my 100year old house. Also includes the Canadian wiring kit, if buyer is from Canada ([..]value). [...]. thanks, Bryan (BC, Canada).

After 3years the units failed. Three days of trouble shooting on the phone tech support with multi meter (I am not a electrician) found a burnt mark on Circuit card. Which IS NOT COVER AFTER ONE YEAR!! What a piece of Junk! Bought for 477.00. Had professionally installed which cost and extra 600. They want 244.00 for a new circuit card!! What a piece of junk and COMPANY!! Backing their product!! Tech support was reading out of a manual telling me what to do with the multi meter to take trouble shooting reading in a hot garage. One tech told me that since the card had a burnt mark on it and all reading were good they would send me a new unit. The next day they changed there mind and said its only one year warrenty on parts!! What a company backing there product!! DO NOT BUY BOSCH!" Recommend reading any and all reviews on differents sites if you dont beleive my hardship with this product!! Pure unprofessionial!! They should be a class action law suit so many of these heaters like mine have failed because of the circuit failed.
