Properly maintained, your water heater will provide years of dependable 
trouble-free service. It is recommended that a periodic inspection of the 
burner, water filter and top exhaust should be made by service personnel 
qualified in gas appliance repair.

It is suggested that a routine preventive maintenance program be 
established and followed by the user.

Inspect the area around the water heater to ensure a safe operating 
environment. Keep water heater area clear and free from combustible 
materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids. Ensure the unit 
has not been damaged. If damage or denting is present, contact a service 
personnel to verify proper operation.

Check for any abnormal sounds during normal operation of the water heater.

All piping should be checked for gas and/or water leaks. Refer to page 4 of 
this manual for instructions on leak testing.

The air intake and cold water supply filters should be cleaned monthly. 
Refer to the “Housekeeping” section for
further information.

DO NOT

 operate the water heater if you feel something is wrong with the unit.

DO NOT

 allow children to operate or otherwise handle the unit.

       DANGER: Before

disconnecting the 

water supply, make 

certain no one will 

be exposed to the 

danger of the hot 

water released by 

disconnecting. The 

water may be hot 

enough to create a 

scald hazard. The 

water should be 

released into a

suitable drain to 

prevent injury or 

property damage.

       DANGER: Hotter

water increases the

potential for hot 

water scalds.

       DANGER: Failure 

to perform the 

recommended

routine preventative

maintenance can 

harm the proper 

operation of this 

water heater, which 

can cause carbon

monoxide dangers,

excessive hot water 

temperatures and 

other potentially

hazardous conditions.

6 MONTH CLEANING ROUTINE

To prevent water scale, lime or rust deposit buildup and ensure 

your Eccotemp tankless water heater is running as efficiently as
