INSTALLATION
WARNING
To assure proper operation and avoid a
possible unsafe condition, the booster heater
must be installed in a horizontal position with
the base parallel to the floor and the inlet
connection at the lowest point.
The Booster Heater must not be installed directly on
carpeting, but on top of a metal, wood (or
equivalent) panel extending beyond the full width
and depth of the booster heater by at least 3"
(76 mm) in any direction or, if the heater is installed
in an alcove or closet, the entire floor must be
covered by the panel. The panel must be strong
enough to carry the weight of the heater when full of
water.
Adequate front clearance is required to allow for
accessibility to the control compartment.
The booster heater should be located in an area
where leakage of the tank or connections will not
result in damage to the area adjacent to the heater
or to lower floors of the structure. When such
locations cannot be avoided, it is recommended that
a suitable drain pan, adequately drained, be
installed under the booster heater. The pan must not
restrict combustion air flow.
CAUTION
Unit is not weatherproof. For safe and proper
operation the unit must be located indoors
where the ambient air temperature is constant
and is a minimum of 70°F (21°C).
GENERAL
Code Requirements
Installation must be in accordance with local codes,
or in the absence of local codes, with the latest
edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1,
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
Canadian installations should conform with CSA-
B149.1 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code,
and CSA-C22.1 Electrical Code, and/or local

licensed plumber and gasfitter.
NOTE: The Commonwealth of Massachusetts
requires that if a water treatment system is
installed in line with the Hatco Booster Heaters,
a water backflow protector shall also be
installed.
NOTE: If a check valve or water backflow protector
is installed and cannot be removed install a back
pressure relief valve, Hatco part number
03.02.039.00, set at 125 psi (862 kPa) on the
incoming line between the pressure reducing valve
and the inlet to the booster heater. Discharge must
be to open site drain.
For the most effective operation, install the Hatco

between booster and dishwasher exceeds the
National Sanitation Foundation specifications of five
(5) feet (1.5 m).
