HANGING   THE   APPLIANCE   

OUTDOOR USE ONLY – The appliance must be used outdoors only. Combustible 
surfaces, fabrics, and flammable materials must be kept at least 1000mm away from 
the sides and top of the appliance while it is operating.  
 
The appliance is designed to be hung upright against a non-combustible vertical 
surface. Do not operate from a non-upright position. Doing so can be dangerous and 
will damage the appliance. 
 
Do not operate the appliance in a dusty environment, or within 300mm of any 
electrical appliances or electrical wires. 
 
During operation, ensure that the combustion air inlets on the sides of the unit and 
the combustion air exhaust on the top of the unit are kept free from obstructions. 

APPLIANCE   PERFORMANCE   

Important – this appliance is designed to be used with a source water temperature of 
20°C or below. If the temperature of the outlet water exceeds 50°C the burners will 
shut off; you will be required to turn the water flow off and on again to reignite the 
burners. 
 
This appliance is designed to raise the outlet water temperature by a maximum 
(average) of 25°C above the source water temperature. The temperature increase 
can be adjusted using the gas regulator and water regulator control knobs located at 
the front of the device. Increasing the gas flow, or decreasing the water flow, will 
increase the outlet water temperature.  
 

SAFETY   FEATURES   

The appliance is equipped with the following safety features: 
 

Over temperature sensor.

 The appliance will not allow the burner to remain in 

operation once the outlet water temperature reaches 50°C. To relight the burner you 
will need to turn the water flow off and back on. 
 

Water flow sensor.

 Water must be flowing through the system to allow the burner to 

ignite. If the water supply is restricted (for example: if you shut off the water flow at 
the showerhead), the burner will be extinguished and will not relight until the water 
flow recommences.
