Failure to follow the instructions in this section and the warnings listed below will not only void
the warranty but could also result in property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
DO NOT
pipe the water heater with black iron, steel, galvanized steel, lead, or aluminum
water pipe, as it could result in premature product failure.
DO NOT
apply a torch within 1 ft. of the water heater. If sweat connections are used, sweat
tubing to the adapter before fitting the adapter to the water connections of the heater.
DO NOT
use dielectric unions or galvanized steel fittings in a system with this unit. Use only
copper, brass, or stainless steel fittings. Teflon thread sealant must be used on all
connections.
The water fittings on the water heater are 3/4 in. If the installation site only has 1/2 in. plumbing throughout, it
is not necessary to up-size the water lines to 3/4 in., if you are installing a single water heater.
When connecting the water supply, follow these guidelines:
Use only pipes, fittings, valves, and components (ex: solder) that are approved for use in
potable water systems.
Tighten the water heater connection valves with care to avoid damage.
It is recommended to use unions and manual shut-off valves on the cold water inlet and hot
water outlet.
Make the hot water piping system as short as possible to deliver hot water to the fixtures
quickly.
To conserve water and energy, insulate all water piping, especially the hot water lines
. DO NOT
cover the drain or pressure relief valve.
After installing the water heater, clean the inlet water filter that is located inside the cold
water inlet, and then test the water heater for proper flow and inspect for leaks. Instruct the
water heater owner that the filter must be cleaned periodically to maintain proper water
flow.
