Product Information
The ATC W5-U is a compact 5 litre unvented water heater designed to fit under a sink or basin. It provides stored hot water close to the point of use, which cuts the wait for hot water at sinks a long way from the main system. It is a sensible option for offices, kitchenettes, cloakrooms, small shops and workshops, and the manufacturer recommends it for one or two basins.
The 2kW element heats the stored water, and an external adjustable thermostat lets you set the outlet temperature. Inlet and outlet connections are ½" male fittings on the top of the unit, and a wall bracket is supplied for mounting under the worktop.
- 5 litre unvented storage
- 2000W heating element
- External adjustable thermostat
- ½" male inlet and outlet connections on top
- Wall bracket supplied for under-sink mounting
As an unvented heater, it needs allowance for expansion. ATC specifies pipework or kit options depending on inlet pressure, so follow the manufacturer's instructions. Electrical installation must comply with current wiring regulations, and plumbing must meet the relevant water regulations.

ATC recommends the 5 litre model for one or two basins. It suits hand washing and light kitchen use, where demand comes in short bursts. For washing up or heavier use, consider a larger capacity model in the same range.
Because it is an unvented heater, it needs allowance for expansion. ATC states that for inlet pressures up to about 4.1 bar, 2.8m of pipe between the cold inlet and the non-return valve can accommodate expansion. At higher pressures, or where this is not possible, an expansion kit is required. Check the manufacturer's instructions for the correct kit.
The heater is rated at 2000W at 220-240V, which draws about 8.7A at 230V. It is commonly supplied from a fused connection unit, but the circuit, fuse rating and cable size should be confirmed against the manufacturer's instructions. Installation must comply with current wiring regulations.
The W5-U is the under-sink version, with connections on the top of the unit, and it is supplied with a wall bracket for mounting below the worktop. If you need a heater to mount above the sink, choose an over-sink model. Check the manufacturer's instructions for clearances and orientation.
