6- GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

Operating your new unit is very similar to using any traditional water heating system. However, it is very 

important that you carefully read all of the set-up procedures and operating instructions and tips to ensure 

the maximum performance and energy savings from your new water heater. We recommend that all 

members of the household read these General Operating Instructions. 

How your new unit works:

 The AutoBooster™ combines with the traditional hot water tank to provide an 

extremely effective and efficient way of heating your water. The unit reads the temperature coming out of 

the tank, and will turn on if the water drops below a set temperature, which you set. The booster will keep 

the water at the desired temperature, another limit which you set. 

7- MAINTENANCE 

To ensure maximum performance of your unit and to reduce the risk of a water leak, we recommend the 

following maintenance: 
You should inspect the connections on the inlet and outlet of the unit at least on an annual basis for any 

signs of damage or failure. Any signs of damage, cracks, leakage or weakness should be addressed. Take 

care not to over-tighten the connections. Serious internal damage to your water heater can occur if you 

over-tighten the water heater connections at the unit. 

IMPORTANT NOTES: 

As with all electrical appliances, under no circumstances should you attempt to install, repair or 

disassemble this water heater without first shutting off all power to the unit directly at the fuse or breaker 

box. SERIOUS BODILY INJURY OR DEATH COULD OCCUR IF YOU IGNORE THIS WARNING. 
When any maintenance is performed on the unit or the home’s plumbing system that may introduce air 

into the plumbing pipes, it is important to turn the power off to the water heater and purge the air out of 

the lines before allowing the unit to power up. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO 

THE HEATING ELEMENT AND VOID YOUR WARRANTY.  
If you have a water supply with a high level of mineralization (hard water), you should increase the 

frequency of your maintenance. (Remove element and inspect for scale build up, soak in vinegar or de-

liming solution until scale is removed, typically within a few hours.) 

8- TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
