Onsen portable water heaters come in three models, each with different heating capacities: the 10L offers maximum heating power, the 7L provides moderate heating, and the 5L has basic heating power. The temperature of the incoming water affects how much power is needed to heat it. For example, during the warmer summer months when water temperature is around 20°C (typical for Canada), the 5L model will deliver comfortably hot water. However, in the colder seasons, when water temperature drops to about 10°C, you'll want a 7L or 10L model for sufficient heating to reach a comfortable temperature.
If your incoming water source will be a garden tap, which is connected to pressurized municipal water, a pump will not be necessary. However, if your incoming water source will be a lake or rain barrel, you will need a pump to pressurize the incoming water.
Onsen portable tankless water heaters are classified as "Portable Water Heaters for Outdoor Use" and are not intended for indoor installation.
