very quick, the cold water has already temperatures over 20-25°C and you are not using any
mixing tab, the temperature might rise over 60°C for a short time (<1 min).

Error E1 on the IMASS IWH-1.5E water heater means that the pilot flame does not light up after 10 seconds. To resolve this issue, ensure that the gas supply is turned on, check for any obstructions in the gas line, and verify that the ignition system is functioning properly. If the issue persists, contact a qualified service technician.
