WATER CONNECTIONS 

 

 

All pipes, pipe fittings, valves and other 
components, including soldering materials, 
must be suitable for potable water systems. A 
manual shut off valve must be installed on the 
cold water inlet to the appliance between the 
main water supply line and the T-H1. In 
addition, a manual shut off valve is also 
recommended on the hot water outlet of the 
unit. If the T-H1 is installed within, or subjected 
to, a closed loop water system, such as one 
having an anti-backflow device in the cold 
water supply line, a thermal expansion tank 
must be installed. Contact the water supplier or 
local plumbing inspector on how to control this 
situation. 
After installation of the appliance is complete, 
purge the water line to remove all the debris 
and air from the line. Failure to do so may 
cause damage to the appliance. There is a 

wire mesh filter within the cold inlet to trap 
debris from entering your appliance. This will 
need to be cleaned periodically to maintain 
optimum flow.  
 
 

Unit Draining & Filter Cleaning Procedures

 

 

To drain your unit, please follow these 

instructions carefully: 

 

1.  Turn off the power supply to the T-H1 

Appliance. 

2. Close the manual gas shut off valve 

located on the gas supply line. 

3. Close the manual water shut off valve 

located on the water supply line. 

4. Open all hot water taps in the house. 

(Bathroom, kitchen, laundry room, etc.). 

When the residual water flow has ceased, 

close all hot water taps. 

5.  Have a bucket or pan to catch the water 

from the unit’s drain plugs. Remove the 

drain plugs to drain all the water out of the 

unit.  

6.  Wait a few minutes to ensure all water has 

drained from unit. 

7.  At this time, please check the water filter 

located within the cold inlet. With a tiny 

brush, clean the water filter of any debris 

which may have accumulated and reinsert 

the filter back into the cold water inlet. 

8.  Securely screw the drain plugs back into 

place. Hand- tighten only 

 
 

Do not use this appliance if any part has 

been submersed under water. 

Immediately call a qualified service 

technician to inspect the appliance and to 

replace any damaged parts.
