On "Chronomite Instant-Flow FlowSecure CMX Series Water Heater"
Point-of-use heaters with built-in leak detection and auto shutoff sound good on paper until you're the one explaining the fourth control board to a building manager who just wants hot water. Chronomite's pitch is solid for retrofit applications where you can't run new lines, but don't mistake convenience features for a substitute for proper installation and maintenance—those sensors fail, shutoff valves stick, and when they do, you're the call. The real value isn't the tech stack; it's the liability offload on the property owner's side.
