ter, point of use applications. EMT models are designed to supply hot
water for all hand wash and kitchen sinks in a residential, commercial or

plumbed in series with the central water heater and act as a booster.

manufactured for easy installation. EMT models are designed to be

CAUTION!:
The manufacturer cannot be responsible for the damage
caused by improper installation or by failure to follow instructions in this
manual. Comply with the Installation Instructions before connecting to
electrical outlet.
CAUTION!:
The thermostat has been pre-set at the factory between
41C (105F) and 45C (113F).
CAUTION!:
Hydrogen gas can be produced in a hot water system
served by this heater that has not been used for a long period of time
(generally 2 weeks or more). Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable. To
reduce the risk of injury under these conditions, it is recommended that
the hot water faucet be opened for several minutes at the nearest and
most distant sink being served by this water heater before using any
electrical appliance connected to the hot water system i.e. Dishwasher.
If hydrogen gas is present, there will probably be an unusual sound such
as air escaping through the faucet as the water begins to flow. There
should be no smoking or open flame near the faucet at this time.
WARNING:
Installer should review the contents of this manual with the
owner upon completion of the installation, and the manual should remain
with the owner and placed in a location close to the water heater.
