recommend that you solicit the services of a licensed and qualified
“Electrician/Plumber”familiarwithtanklesswaterheaterinstallation.
All electrical work and setting the unit to the wall should be completed before any
electricalwiringconnections.
IMPROPER INSTALLATION CAN CAUSE INJURY OR EVEN DEATH.
I) WALLFIXING
- Turn off the power or running water.
-Mark thepositionofthepointsofthe3screws.Notethatwerecommendleaving6

and maintenance.
- The heater must beinstalled vertically and secured with 3 screws using the“drill
hole template” included with this heater.
-Set the heater at the pointswherethescrewsshouldgo,usetheadaptersand
screws provided.(viewphotos)
II) PLUMBING
- Uses tainless steel flexible hose or copper tubing from ½" to enter and leave
the water heater.(Right side water inlet, hot water outlet, left.) When you have
water pipes reduce the manother size to ½".
- Do not use PVC, CPVC or plastic supply lines to connect the unit. A pipe 16"of
copper or stainless steel must be connected to the input and output of the
heater.
- Connect the isolation valve at the entry inlet pipe of the heater and make sure
you install a rubber washer. Do not apply excessive force to tighten connectors.
Be sure to clean the pipes before connecting the heater to the main line, clean
all the impurities of the pipe allowing water to flow for a few minutes, check for
leaks.
Any residue or dirt in the pipes may cause internal damage to the unit. We
recommend installing a sediment filter before the entry of water to the heater.
Hard water or water with high levels of minerals and alkali can cause damage to
this unit. When this is the case, we recommend the use of a (non-salt) water
softening system.
III) ELECTRICITY
- Install a fuse box or switch (“breaker") for exclusive use of the heater. Based
on the power of the model obtained using the cable for your unit according to
the power and model purchased. Find a detailed guide to the power and cable
type used in the table below. Connect the ground, as indicated in the Electrical
Code.

Once installed the heater, let the water flow through the unit before turning on
electricity.Whenallconnectionsaresatisfactorilypreparedinstalltheheatercover.
With the insulated container off and flow modifier (optional) fully open, the faucet
must be opened fully to get maximum water flow at the exit. This is necessary to
ensure that the water tank is full before turning your energy is an essential step to
protecttheresistance.
