safety issues
. If you install the water heater in an attic:

•
Water hardness levels must not exceed 7 grains per gallon (120 ppm) for
single family domestic applications or more than 4 grains per gallon (70 ppm)
for all other types of applications. Water hardness leads to scale formation
and may affect / damage the water heater. Hard water scaling must be
avoided or controlled by proper water treatment.

are present in the air
. Some chemicals used in beauty salons or dry cleaners may
affect the flame sensor. In such cases, the water heater may not work properly.
•

the
manufacturer does not recommend installing the unit on a wall adjacent to a
bedroom, or a room that is intended for quiet study or meditation, etc
.
•
Locate your heater close to a drain where water leakage will not do damage to
surrounding areas. As with any water heating appliance, the potential for leakage
at some time in the life of the product does exist. The manufacturer will not be
responsible for any water damage that may occur. If you install a drain pan under
the unit, ensure that it will not restrict the combustion air flow.
