The hot water heater features an eleven gallon capacity and
has recirculating ability to keep water warm during cruising.
This is accomplished by a set of hoses connected between
the hot water tank and the circulating engine water pump.
Engine coolant runs through a heat exchanger which keeps
the tank water warm when the engines are running.
To initially
fi
ll the hot water heater, ensure the boat’s fresh
water tank is full. When the tank is full water will be seen
at the deck vent. At the DC side of the main ship’s AC/
DC panel, turn the fresh water pump to the “on” position.
Make sure the water heater is full of water by opening
a hot water faucet until a steady stream
fl
ows out.
With the generator running or the shore power connected,
switch on the hot water heater at the AC side of the ship’s
service panel. The heating element will now begin to heat
the hot water tank.
Should the hot water heater reset button need to be
activated on
older
heaters, turn off the hot water breaker at
the AC side of the main control panel. Then remove the
panel cover to expose the reset button. Press the red reset
button. On
newer
models there is a round access port on
the rear panel to reach and reset the breaker.
Should the need arise there is a drain valve located at the
rear of the heater. Always turn the hot water breaker to the
“off ” position before opening the drain valve. Make sure
the water is cold before attempting to open the valve.
The
valve runs through the shower sump pump and then
overboard.
Never try to adjust the thermostat or open the
drain valve before turning off the AC breaker. Contact a
marine professional for further information.

DO NOT TURN ON THE HOT WATER
BREAKER WITHOUT THE WATER HEATER
BEING FULL. DAMAGE TO THE HEATER
ELEMENT WILL OCCUR.
CAUTION
