Regularly using and reviewing the app will help you fine tune your water heating needs, while helping you use less resources to do so, ultimately saving you money.

The Mini Tank water heater will default to 118 degrees Fahrenheit if a temperature is not set with the app or the knob.
USING VOICE COMMANDS
The Eccotemp ESH Mini Tank Water Heater is the first SMARTHOME water heater of its kind to work with a mobile app and voice control. Once you open your Google Home or Amazon Alexa App simply add your SMARTHOME Mini Tank by adding a new device. Once added to either app you will then be able to use voice commands.
Note: All commands begin with "Alexa," or "Ok, Google," before issuing a command to the respective device.
