SCCR Rating

Keltech Electric Tankless Water Heaters are certified by ETL to UL499, UL50E and CSA22 .2 No 88 . It is designed to 
comply with UL508A . 
The SCCR load rating is marked on the enclosure per UL508A requirements for Water Heaters controlling a resistive 
heating element load .  

IMPORTANT!  For safe operation of the heater, observe all the warning labels as indicated.   Sample labels 

provided below.

Storage Instructions

IMPORTANT! Keep Keltech Electric Tankless Water Heaters stored in original packaging until installation.  

Recommended storage criteria: 

Store Keltech Electric Tankless Water Heaters where temperatures exceed 35ºF (5º C) at all times .
Indoor storage is recommended .
Minimize excessive on-site transport to reduce risk of shock and impact damage . 

Alternate storage: 

If in the original crate, Keltech Electric Tankless Water Heaters will withstand outside storage for approximately 1 
month in most climates .
If the Keltech Electric Tankless Water Heater is stored in an outdoor environment, care should be taken to protect the 
heaters from:

•  Rain or other falling precipitation via tarp or other waterproof media .
•  Runoff and accumulation of groundwater from any source that may exceed 1 inch . 

NOTE: For heaters with ENHT freeze protection option: If the heater is stored where the temperature could fall below 

45°F(7°C), the heater must be powered immediately after hydro testing to ensure internal freeze protection 
components are activated. Once the heater is installed and the on-site plumbing has been hydro tested, the 
power supply must remain constant until the risk of freeze is eliminated. 

If this is not possible, do not allow 

the heater to remain full of water.  The heater must be drained of water.  Freezing of the heater can 
cause serious damage.  Follow notes in Start Up Check List section.

Packaging

Crates are constructed from 3/4" OSB . 
Crate dimensions approx: 82" x 48" x 24" (2083mm x 1219mm x 610mm)
Crates should not be stacked more than 2 high .
All crates must be stacked evenly and horizontally .
Safety issues related to packaging:

•  Product should be transported with the care associated to packages labeled “FRAGILE” even if packaging is not 

marked accordingly .

•  Standard safety procedures for forklift transport and large items less than 1000lbs should be followed at all times . 
•  When stored, crate must be supported in entirety of its length and width .
