Tank Style Water Heaters - Installation Instructions
The
Water
Quick Premier
can be used with both tank style water heaters and
tankless water heaters. These instructions are for installation on a tank style water
heater. Please refer to the appropriate manual for tankless installations.
The
Water
Quick Premier
is installed in the hot water line on top of a tank style
water heater. Failure to follow these instructions may lead to system failure and/or
property damage. Although a plumber is not required to install the system, familiarity
with basic plumbing is helpful.
Step 1.
Inspect your water heater supply lines
: If the supply lines are old
and inflexible they will need to be replaced.
Step 2.
Turn off water heater
:
a.
Electric
–
turn off power by either unplugging the water heater or shutting
off the appropriate breaker
b.
Gas, propane or heating oil
–
turn off water heater and make sure the
pilot light is turned off.
Step 3.
Turn off water
: Turn off the water to the water heater. In most cases
there is a valve located above the water heater on the cold water supply
line.
Step 4.
Drain the hot water lines
: Turn on any hot water faucet in the house
and let it run until the water stops flowing. Leave the faucet on for the
duration of the installation. Drain remaining hot water using the hot
water spigot on the water heater.
Note
: If water continues to flow, check to make sure that the water has
been completely turned off. If the valve does not shut off the water flow
completely turn off the valve supplying water to the house or at the water
meter.
Step 5.
Disconnect the hot water supply line
: Unscrew the hot water supply
line at the hot water discharge (typically the left supply line).
