110V vs 220V Planning Basics
When 110V can make sense
- Simple startup path in suitable models. Plug-and-play setups can work well for lighter usage patterns.
- Lower installation complexity in some homes. Fewer upgrades may reduce upfront installation cost.
When 220V is usually preferred
- Faster heat recovery and stronger performance support. Higher power delivery helps maintain comfort during repeated use.
- Better long-term fit for frequent or family use. Regular owners usually benefit from the consistency of 220V operation.
Always use a licensed electrician and local code-compliant disconnect/GFCI setup.
