Yes you can rewire the way you like it. You only have to consider thermostat's difference.

In my case I used only 1 element (actually never used it but it is there for back up) and 1 thermostat to control it. Lower element I took out and used it's hole as an extra water connection for HX circulation. It's thermostat I use for circulation pump control.

There is no NO or CAN'T for DIY.

I think many DIY guys reading this forum are able to build even better unit from just junk.

Just get an old AC condensing unit and build one. Your Sanyo unit is much better unit and more powerful use R290 in it and you will beat this hot water toy .
