Congratulations on your purchase of
an
OMEGA OME 514-PV Gas Tankless
Water Heater.
You’re about to discover that not all water
heaters are created equal. The Omega
Comfort has made possible the design and
production of this efficient and incredibly
affordable Tankless water heater that will
provide you with many years of
uninterrupted service. It is the mission
and goal of the Omega Comfort to
continue to combine innovation, quality,
affordability and reliability in all of its
Tankless water heaters.
Once again, thank you and
congratulations.
Before going any further, check and make
sure that the following items accompany
your water heater. There are two
compartments in the Styrofoam packaging
that contain necessary hardware.
Before we go any further let’s make a
inventory:
The first pouch will hold the letter from
the CEO, this instruction manual and the
Consumer Energy Guide and bolts for
mounting the brackets
.
The second will hold the direct vent
hardware: They are to be used ONLY when
vented direct thru the wall.
-They are also 2 mounting brackets taped
on the back of the unit.
