Michael does the E-tech HP xfr heat from input water to output water within the unit or does it require buffer tanks on the side from which to exchange?

Hello Drake, It is totally self contained. It has a circulating motor in the box that runs the source water, and a flow switch senses when the hot side has water moving in it which powers up the circulator. Cold potable water goes in, and hot water comes out, and that hot water can, of course, go into a holding tank to build up a reserve of DHW.
