THE L5, L7,& L10 PORTABLE TANKLESS WATER HEATERS HAVE 1/2” TO 3/8” ADAPTER ALREADY

PLEASE ENSURE THE ADAPETER IS CORRECTLY INSTALLED WITH THREAD SEALANT. A

1.   Turn on incoming water supply. Ensure that you have adequate water

      pressure between 20-80 PSI.

2.   Turn your water output device to its “off” position. 

3.   Turn the gas valve on the cylinder all the way open.
4.   IF THE SMELL OF GAS IS DETECTED, TURN OFF THE GAS VALVE

      IMMEDIATELY!!
5.   Set the water regulator knob on the face of the portable tankless water

      heater to its highest setting.
6.   Set the gas regulator knob on the face of the portable tankless water

      heater to its minimum setting.
7.   Turn on your water output device to the “on” position and adjust to the

      desired water flow.

8.   There will be a series of audible clicks and the burner will ignite. Should

      the burner not ignite after 5 seconds, shut off and go to the “Trouble

      Shooting” section.
9.   Upon completion of use or storage, open the drain valve (ribbed

      cylindrical stem next to the water input valve) to ensure draining of water.

10. Turn off your gas supply.

11.  WARNING: If the outside temperature is around or below freezing (32

       degrees F, 0 degrees C), ensure that the drain valve is opened and water

       drained from the portable tankless water heater after each use to avoid

       internal damage to the water regulator.  You will also need to unhook the

       outgoing water line to ensure that any water in the heat exchanger is

       drained.  Failure to properly drain your portable tankless water heater will

       cause water damage which may or may not be reparable.  Please check the

       warranty information found on our website at www.eccotemp.com for

       more information on freezing issues.
