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 instillation easier and seals to
the water valve by means of a union connection with a washer type gasket at the joint.
No pipe 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
ECOHOT
TM
. 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
ECOHOT
TM
water heater requires an electrical power supply from 120 VAC 60HZ circuit
and needs to be properly grounded.
TURNING THE 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 (ECOHOT
TM
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.
TURNING THE 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
)
Before installing the appliance, be certain you have the correct heater for your type of Gas-Propane
or Natural Gas. Identification labels are found on the shipping box, and on the rating plate, which
is located on the right side panel of the cover.
