WARNING / CAUTION
1.
Please read all instructions prior to installing water heater.
2.
Tank is to be completely filled with water and all air is to be vented before energizing.
3.
Due to the rigors of transportation, all connections should be checked for tightness before
heater is placed in operation.
4.
Safety relief valve must be installed in tapping provided.
5.
The refractory material used in heating elements may absorb some moisture during
transit, periods of storage, or when subjected to a humid environment. This moisture
absorption results in a cold insulation resistance of less than twenty (20) megohms. If this
heater has been subjected to the above condition, each heating element must be checked
for insulation resistance before energizing. A low megohm condition can be corrected by
removing the terminal hardware and baking the element in an oven at 350°F -700°F for
several hours or until the proper megohm reading is obtained.
6.
KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS.
Do not perform any maintenance, make any adjustments, or replace any components
inside the control panel with the high voltage power supply turned on. Under certain
circumstances, dangerous potentials may exist even when the power supply is off. To
avoid casualties, always turn the power supply safety switch to off, turn the charge or
ground the circuit before performing any maintenance or adjustment procedure.
7.
This appliance is designed to store water heated only by the electrical elements
provided, at temperature of not more then 125°F and pressures of not more than 150
psi. Heat input from any external or additional source will void the warranty.
8.
The design anticipates the proper installation and care in use of the product. There is a
risk of property damage and personal injury inherent in these of any hot water system.
The Company cannot supervise the installation and therefore make it a specific
condition of the warranty that the customer will supervise the installation and use of
this product to be sure they are performed in accordance with safe guidelines and
proper local or national codes. Generalized instructions and procedures cannot
anticipate all situations. For this reason, only qualified installers should perform the
installations. A qualified installer is a person who has licensed training and a working
knowledge of the applicable codes regulation, tools, equipment, and methods necessary
for safe installation of an electric resistance water heater. If questions regarding
installation arise, check your local plumbing and electrical inspectors for proper
procedures and codes. If you cannot obtain the required information, contact the
company.
