THE MANUFACTURER OF THIS WATER HEATER WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES DUE 
TO THE FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS 

 

CAUTION:    

BEFORE BEGINNING THE INSTALLATION: 
A) 

Turn off circuit breaker to avoid dangerous electrical shocks.  

B) 

Turn off water  supply. 

 

1. 

Remove heater cover.  Attach conduit to the conduit through electrical access hole.  Then feed wires.  Do not attach 
wiring yet.   

2. 

Mount unit horizontally against the wall so label reads correctly (See Fig. 1).  Mount with four screws through the 
mounting holes located on the base plate housing using molly anchors or fasteners.  CAUTION:  Heating elements may 
burn out if unit is not mounted horizontally. 

3. 

Connect plumbing.  Use ¼ inch tapered national pipe thread at cold-water inlet and hot water outlet (See Fig. 1).  Use 
compression fittings for ease of installation and possible servicing.  Do not apply heat to these fittings. 

4. 

Run water through the unit to expel all air bubbles.  Check for leaks at all fitting joints.    

5. 

Connect wiring.  Attach ground wire to center terminal and hot wires to outer terminals  (See Fig. 3).  

6. 

Install cover.  Install the (2) cover mounting screws.   Turn on circuit breaker.  The unit is now ready for use.   

7. 

The LED indicator located on the front cover will indicate that the power is “on”.  Local plumbing and electrical codes 
must be followed in this installation of water heater and the accessories.   

8. 

Failure to comply with code requirements voids warranty.   

9. 

Optional 

(if potentiometer is to be used , install at time of installation; see page 3 for further  instructions)

:                                      

Mount potentiometer to wall using bracket supplied as shown in diagram                                    

                     a.  Connect the quick connect of the potentiometer to the connection found on the lower right side of the heater.
