Chlorine bleach or other concentrated chlorine bearing chemicals can cause
failure, if not properly and thoroughly rinsed, to the Aqua-Hot’s Domestic
Water Loop (copper tubing). The Aqua-Hot’s copper tubing is rated for use
with fresh water and winterization solutions only. Periodic flushing with other
common household chemicals, including bleach, will have little or no effect on
the product if properly rinsed with the fresh water afterwards. Failure of copper
tubing, especially soft or flexible copper, can result if materials other than
water or winterization solutions are allowed to reside inside the piping for
extended periods as during storage or other periods of non-use. The most com-
mon cause for failure is due to an extended exposure to chlorine, solutions con-
taining chlorine (i.e., bleach), or hydrochloric acid.

The water is electrically heated to a brewing/cooking hot
190° F (88° C) by a compact tank that mounts under the sink. A
thermostat maintains the water at this approximate temperature.
When you turn the tap, cold water enters the bottom of the tank
and forces hot water out of the faucet. The system is vented so
the tank is not pressurized.
Operation
Turn the insta-hot switch, located in the galley, to the ON
position. It will take 10 to 15 minutes for water to reach 190° F
(88° C) in temperature. Steam or hot water may come out of the
faucet without turning it on.After 10 to 15 minutes turn on the
faucet for about 20 seconds to bleed off any steam until the hot
water is dispersed. Allow the water in the tank to reheat. Repeat
this step one or two times. When hot water with no steam is dis-
pensed, turn the faucet on to use hot water. To shut off the sys-
tem, turn the galley switch to the OFF position.
Temperature Adjustment
If the steam cannot be stopped, or the water boils, adjust
temperature as follows:
• Turn the galley switch off and unplug the power cord.
• Remove the screw and access cover.
• Insert a screwdriver in the slot of the thermostat
adjusting screw and turn clockwise a 1/2 notch to
increase the water temperature, or counterclockwise a 1/2
notch to decrease the water temperature.
• Reinstall the access cover, reconnect the electric power
and turn on the galley switch.
• Draw three or four cups of water and allow unit to reheat.
• Repeat the procedure until desired temperature is reached.
DO NOT ALLOW THE WATER TO BOIL .
