Finding the Proper Location:
Make sure you install your tank-less water heater in an area that exhaust has 4ft or more
from any window or door (check local codes).. Exhaust vent must be a min. of 7ft. above
public walk ways or paved drive ways. Minimum 3 feet below eaves or gutters. See Fig 6.
DANGER
Vapors from flammable liquids will explode and catch fire causing death or severe burns.
Do not use or store flammable products such as gasoline, solvents or adhesives near the water heater.
Mounting:
1. Use stud finder or other common method to find wall studs.. It is important to locate the
“flue pipe” between the studs (Use template supplied by ECOHOT). Mount water heater
with a minimum of 2 ½” non-corrosive wood screws. (Note; add a ¼” per ft. (min.) slope to
vent pipe to avoid water damage to the water heater). See Fig 4 &5
2. Use four (4) 1” wood screws for wood siding or molly type screws to mount water heater to
stucco or concrete. (Note: Use corrosion resistant screws).
3. Only use flue pipe supplied by ECOHOT for this unit.
Installation of Gas Line:
1. Ensure that your gas supply is properly sized, check with your local gas company and gas
chart in this manual.
2. Install a gas shut off valve on the gas supply line. (See Fig. 2)
3. Be sure to install a sediment trap and a union connection. (See Fig. 2).
4. Make sure to check the name plate for the correct gas type supply NG or LP.
Installation of Cold Water Supply:
The inlet line, cold water supply is on the right hand side (always use a min. of ¾” copper pipe, or
¾” flex line). Install shut off valve on water supply line. (See Figure 2)
Installation of Hot Water Outlet:
1. The outlet line, hot water supply is on the left hand side (always use a min. of ¾” copper
pipe or ¾” flex line). Install shut off valve on water supply line. (See Figure 2)
2. Your hot water lines should be kept short to save water & energy, thus placement of this
appliance is important to save hot water cost. NOTE: Hot water lines should be insulated.
(Follow local codes).
3. When facing the heater, the hot water outlet is on your left. Keep water inlet and outlet
pipes to no less than 3/4” diameter to allow the full flow capacity.
Remember:
1. Water pressure must be sufficient to activate the heater when drawing hot water from the
top floor.
2. If the hot and cold connections to the heater are reversed, the heater will not function.
3. 3/4’’Copper or brass fittings work best when connected to the connectors. (See Fig. 2)
4. The flexible type connectors (3/4” ID min.) will make installation easier and seals to the
water valve by means of a union connection with a washer type gasket at the joint. No pipe

Installation Manual and Owner’s Guide WH-201061-NG, WH-201061-LP
ECOHOT TM

sealant or Teflon tape is to be used at this joint.
5. Be certain there are no loose particles or dirt in the piping. Blow out or flush the lines
before connecting to the ECOHOTTM. Full port valves should be installed on both the cold
water feed line and the hot water outlet line to facilitate servicing the heater.
6. For installation on a private well system, be sure that the water pressure is set between
30 and 50 PSI. (See Fig. 2)
Installation of Power Supply
The ECOHOTTM water heater requires an electrical power supply from 120 VAC 60HZ circuit
and needs to be properly grounded.
TURNINGTHE WATER HEATER ON:
1. Open cold water supply valve, open hot water supply valve, and open hot water faucet
outlet to remove any air in the water lines.
2. Turn on gas valve.
3. Plug-in power supply.
4. Press the on/off button on remote to ON then set temperature (ECOHOTTM Recommends
120F/49C or less) and open water outlet in home. If a remote controller is provided,
adjust the temperature below 120F/49C(Default temperature), there is a hot water scald
potential if the remote controller is set too high. Should overheating occur or the gas supply
fail to shut of, turn off the manual gas control valve to the appliance. If water heater does
not get hot close and open outlet again to remove air from gas line, if this does not work
refer to trouble shooting.
TURNINGTHE WATER HEATER OFF:
1. Shut off hot water faucet.
2. Shut off gas valve.
Please Note:
CSC recommends that installers use large washers with the screws used to hang the heater. (See
Figure3)

Water Connections
When facing the heater, the cold water inlet is on your right and the hot water outlet is on your left.
Although water piping throughout your structure may be other than copper, we recommend that
copper piping be used for at least three feet before and after the heater (follow local codes). Keep
water inlet pipe to no less than 3/4” diameter to allow the full flow capacity.
Remember that water pressure must be sufficient to activate the heater when drawing hot water

from the top floor. If the hot and cold connections to the heater are reversed, the heater will not
function. 3/4’’Copper or brass fittings work best when connected to the connectors. (See Fig. 2) The
flexible type connectors will make instillation easier and seals to the water valve by means of a
union connection with a washer type gasket at the joint. No pipe dope or thread tape is to be used at
this joint. Be certain there are no loose particles or dirt in the piping. Blow out or flush the lines
before connecting to the ECOHOTTM. Full port valves should be installed on both the cold water
feed line and the hot water outlet line to facilitate servicing the heater. For installation on a private
well system, be sure that the water pressure is set between 30 and 50 PSI. (See Fig. 2) Plumbing
connections for the ECOHOTTM
Connecting the pressure relief valve (PRV) (PRV Must be Brass, ¾” and, rated at 150 PSI),
Install PRV discharge line 6” above floor drain or to exterior of home (check local building codes).
(See Figure 2) A listed pressure relief valve must be installed at the time of installation and needs to
be ¾” and 150PSI. No valve is to be placed between the PRV and the heater. No reducing coupling
or other restriction may be installed in the discharge line.
The discharge line must be installed such that it allows complete drainage of both the pressure relief
valve (PRV) and the line to a suitable place for disposal.
The location of the PRV must be readily accessible for servicing or replacement, and be mounted as
close to the water heater as possible. See Fig. 2. To install the PRV, a suitable fitting connected to an
extension on a “T”fitting can be sweated to the hot water line. (See Fig. 2)
(PRV is included with this water heater for Canada only).
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before proceeding with the operation of the heater make sure that the system is filled with water.
Open the cold water inlet supply to the heater fully. Open a hot water faucet to permit the water to
fill the heater and the piping and to eliminate the air trapped in the system. Close the hot water
faucet after the water flows freely and all the air has escaped from the system. The water heater is
now ready to operate.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
WARNING: Unplug the electrical power supply and close the manual gas control valve and
the manual water control valve and turn off remote before servicing.
Do this immediately after installation:
1. Check for gas leaks with soapy water solution.
2. Check that the water heater is mounted securely.
3. Check the gas pressure.
4. Keep the area around the water heater clear. from combustible materials, gasoline and other
flammable vapors and liquids. Check every month for overgrown vegetation.
5. The appliance should be checked once a year or as necessary by a licensed technician. If
repairs are needed, any repairs should be done by a licensed technician.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring error can
cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
The following systems and parts should be checked at least once a year:
1. Venting system
2. Burner
3. Manual operation of the pressure relief valve to ensure correct operation. When operating
the pressure relief valve, avoid contact with hot water coming out and avoid water damage.
4. Cleaning
5. Heat exchanger requires flushing with a descaling solution. Scale build up will void your
warranty and shorten the life of your water heater. To remove the front cover, first remove
the four screws, and then pull main cover out toward you and lift up and out.
THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BYA LICENSED
TECHNICIAN.
Venting System: Should be checked annually. Clean as needed. Before removing cover appliance
should be unplugged, Water and gas valve should be shut off.
Main Burner Flames: The main burner flames should be blue. Yellow flames could be a sign of
wrong size gas orifices or dirty burners, or a blockage on the heat exchangers fins. If some burners
have yellow flames while others have blue flames, it is likely that dust, lint or spider webs have
partially clogged the burner ventures. To clean the burners, contact a gas service person.

Mineral Scale Build-up: The ECOHOTTM Water heater should be set at lower temperature
(ECOHOTTM Recommends 120F/49C or less) to help avoid accumulating mineral built-up. If
however the water has a high mineral content, periodic descaling may be necessary. The heating
coils should be flushed with a descaling solution. The descaling is done only to the heat exchange
or the chemicals will damage other parts.
NATIONAL SECONDARY DRINKING WATER REGULATIONS
This part establishes National Secondary Drinking Water Regulations pursuant to section 1412 of

Installation Manual and Owner’s Guide WH-201061-NG, WH-201061-LP
ECOHOT TM
15 of 29
The Safe Drinking Water Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. 300g–1). These regulations control
contaminants in drinking water that primarily affect the aesthetic qualities relating to the public
acceptance of drinking water. At considerably higher concentrations of these contaminants, health
implications may also exist as well as aesthetic degradation. The regulations are not Federally
enforceable but are intended as guidelines for the States.
These are the secondary maximum contaminant levels for public water systems:
Contaminant
Level
Aluminum
0.05 to 0.2 mg/l.
Chloride
250 mg/l.
Color
15 color units.
Copper
1.0 mg/l.
Corrosivity
Non-corrosive.
Fluoride
2.0 mg/l.
Foaming agents
0.5 mg/l.
Iron
0.3 mg/l.
Manganese
0.05 mg/l.
Odor
3 threshold odor number.
pH
6.5–8.5.
Silver
0.1 mg/l.
Sulfate
250 mg/l.
Total dissolved solids (TDS)
500 mg/l.
Zinc
5 mg/l.
These levels represent reasonable goals for drinking water quality. The States may establish
higher or lower levels which may be appropriate dependent upon local conditions such as
unavailability of alternate source waters or other compelling factors, provided that public
health and welfare are not adversely affected. If levels are higher than in this chart provided
you may want to talk with local Water Department, Well Driller Companies, Building
Department, or Local Government to determine if water treatment / conditioning may be an
option to reduce scaling in this water heater.
Greenworks Unlimited suggests installing a water softener if water is more than 11
GRAINS per gallon.
NOTE: Keeping this water heater controller set at 110°F to 115°F will significantly reduce
scaling to the water lines in less than favorable conditions.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
Introduction:
The ECOHOTTM burner is activated by a water flow valve. Numerous water related problems can
cause this water valve to malfunction such as:
1. Insufficient water flow volume to activate the burners at its minimum flow requirement.
2. Dirt in the water flow valve causing it to malfunction.
3. Sediment build-up in faucet, or shower head.
4. Uneven pressure between cold and hot (with single valve faucets).
5. Plumbing crossovers.
These water flow related problems can cause the heater to deliver less than its full output, or to fail
to ignite or to shut down completely. (Always unplug power supply before removing cover).
No spark at the pilot:
Cross over in water lines. To confirm there is no cross-over in the plumbing, shut off the cold
water supply to the ECOHOTTM and open a hot water faucet. There should not be any water
flowing at any faucet. Water running is a sign of a plumbing cross-over. Consult your plumber.
Water flow is not sufficient to activate heater:
1. Water flow rate at faucet is below minimum flow needed to activate this appliance do to
clogged screens/filters or restricted water pipes. Consult your plumber.
2. Water inlet screen is clogged, water flow is restricted, thus preventing needed flow to activate
heater. Clean water inlet screen (See Fig. 1).
3. Water valve parts may be dirty or components damage, water valve and component parts must
be completely free of dirt. In hard water areas water valve parts may be corroded to a point
where they will need replacing. Check for any sign of moisture or corrosion at the joints of the
water valves and/or components. Replace or service if needed immediately.
4. Poor circuit connections at the Over Heat Sensor (ECO) or the flue gas safety device.
Ignition sparker will not operate if the electrical circuit is interrupted. Check that the
connections to the ECOHOTTM and “Flue Gas Safety Device” are secure.
SPARKS APPEAR AT PILOT WHEN HOT WATER TAPTURNED ON, BUT
SPARKERS AND BURNERS WILL NOT IGNITE.
NOTE: Air in the Gas Line is normally a problem at time of initial installation, after the
pipes have been worked on, or after a gas supply line has been allowed to empty. Bleed the
air trapped in the gas line by turning the hot water faucet on and off until the air has been
cleared from the line.
No gas to the ECOHOTTM
1. Gas cock on gas line may not be open.
2. Gas regulator may be shut or damaged replace or unlock the regulator. Excessive pressure
will lock it up. Locking usually happens when using propane gas if the gas pressure
between the gas tank and the water heater’s gas regulator has not been reduced. To unlock

a regulator, consult your Plumber, gas supplier or call ECOHOTTM at 1-877-5ECOHOT
(1-877-532-6468)
3. Pilot orifice or gas valve is dirty. Clogging of the pilot burner can be caused by dust in the
air or dirt in the gas. The pilot orifice or gas filter may need to be cleaned or replaced.
Flow:
The flow rate through the ECOHOTTM is limited to a maximum of 5.3 GPM at 45°F rise. The
temperature of the water will determine the flow rate output of the appliance based on your
local ground water temperature and your desired outlet water temperature combination.
Based on the Applianceed States Department of Energy method of testing water heater output,
the ECOHOTTM is rated for 222 Gallons per hour (GPH) or 3.7 Gallons per minute (GPM),
when raising the water temperature by 65°F (for example from 54°F to 115°F). Refer to the
following chart of typical household plumbing fixture flow rates to determine what
ECOHOTTM can do in a household application.
(Actual water flow will be higher when mixed with cold water)

TEMPERATURE SETTING
There is a remote temperature gage with digital display from 95°F (35°C) to 140°F (60°C).
“Greenworks Unlimited”TM recommends temperatures stay at or below 120°F to help prevent lime
build-up inside the “heat exchangers” copper lines.
WARNING
To help prevent scalding the outlet hot water temperature of the ECOHOTTM set at a
maximum of 120°F (49°C)

FREEZE PROCTECTION DEVICE:
This appliance comes equipped with heating blocks to prevent freezing which can damage the heat
exchanger. For this freeze prevention system to operate there has to be electrical power to the
appliance. Damage to the heat exchanger caused by freezing temperatures due to power loss is not
covered under the warranty. This water heater has been rated for temperatures down to 5°F (-15°C)
in wind free environment. If you install the water heater in an area that is subject to temperatures
(including wind chill) below 5°F (-15°C), this will void warranty and ECOHOTTM will not be
responsible for any damage to the heat exchanger as a result of freezing. If you will not be using
your heater for a long period of time or if the temperature (including the wind chill) drops below
5°F (-15°C) turn off your heater and drain the appliance of water.
