QUICK START GUIDE 04
If your water heater requires a reset, be sure to TURN OFF THE BREAKERS prior to resetting the unit.
Resetting your unit without turning off the breakers can result in personal injury and damage to your water heater.
WARNING! There is water contained in the coils of your water heater at all times. If your water heater is exposed to freezing temperatures, the water in the coils could freeze, causing a break in the heat exchanger of the unit, or the supply and return lines. This kind of damage will result in water running freely into the space where the water heater is located, which can cause flooding. DO NOT install this water heater where it may be subjected to a freeze. If your water heater is in an area where freezing is a possibility, you must turn off the water to the heater and drain it of any water by disconnecting the water lines. Leave the water lines disconnected until you intend to use the water heater.

The wire gauge necessary will vary based on amperage and distance to the breaker, but 8 gauge wire is generally sufficient for most installations. If the distance is very short, sometimes smaller gauge wire may be used. If you aren't sure which gauge of wire should be used, contact an electrician. The supply wire, main switch and
circuit protection (Leakage Circuit Breaker) must be sufficient for the amperage required. Please check the table above and the flow rate/temperature rise chart for the appropriate amperage for your situation. Note that the lower the amperage, the lower the water temperature rise will be.
DO NOT TURN ON THE BREAKER SWITCH UNTIL ALL ELECTRICAL AND PLUMBING CONNECTIONS ARE MADE AND WATER IS FLOWING THROUGH THE UNIT.
Connect (1) white wire to the single pole 10, 20, 30 or 40 Amp circuit breaker. Connect (1) white wire to the neutral bar on your breaker box. It does not matter
which white wire connects to neutral and which connects to the breaker. Connect the green ground wire to the ground bar on your breaker box.
Connect the (2) white wires to the double pole 10, 20, 30 or 40 Amp circuit breaker. Connect the green ground wire to the ground bar on your breaker box. This appliance MUST be grounded. Connect the ground wire, as indicated in the
Electrical Code. When all connections are satisfactorily prepared, install the heater cover. With the
insulated container off and water flow modifier (optional) fully open, the faucet must be opened fully to get maximum water flow . It is necessary to ensure that the water tank is full before turning the power on. This is an essential step to protect the heating element.
Note that the above instructions are simply guidelines that apply to most installations.
The size of the switch and wire gauge must meet all local, state, provincial and national electrical codes in your area. Contact an electrician if you're not sure.
To determine the minimum electrical circuit please see the next table:

Working with electricity requires proper skills and knowledge – Installation of the unit should be performed by someone who is familiar or trained in this trade. We HIGHLY recommend that you hire the services of a licensed and qualified “Electrician/Plumber” familiar with tankless water heaters installation.
IMPROPER INSTALLATION CAN CAUSE INJURY OR EVEN DEATH. IMPORTANT: All electrical work and unit fixing to the wall should be completed
before connecting electrical wiring. When you turn on the unit, extremely hot water could come out. Take proper safety
precautions to avoid being hurt or burned by water. DO NOT expose the unit to freezing temperatures. Do not use an input water temperature over 90 degrees F or 32.2 degrees Celsius. This unit is designed for indoor use only.
DO NOT restrict the flow of water entering the unit.
DO NOT operate the appliance if water ceases to flow during use, if the outer case or cover is loose or if the unit is not working properly.
If the unit leaks or does not heat properly, disconnect the unit. ISOLATE the electrical and water supplies before removing the cover and before
proceeding with installation or servicing. NEVER OPERATE THIS HEATER WITHOUT THE COVER!
WATER AND PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS
DO NOT USE PVC, CPVC or plastic supply lines directly to the unit. A16” copper or stainless steel pipe must be connected to the heater and then adapted to a different material such as (CPVC, PVC or PEX PLASTIC).
Be sure to clean the pipes before connecting the heater to the main line. Clean all the impurities of the pipe, allowing water to flow for a few minutes, check for leaks. Any residue or dirt in the pipes may cause internal damage to the unit.
Connect the isolation valve at the entry inlet pipe of the heater and make sure you install a rubber washer. Do not apply excessive force to tighten connectors. A safety release valve must be fitted in the supply pipe.
We recommend installing a sediment filter before the entry of water to the heater. Hard water or water with high levels of minerals and alkali can cause damage to this unit. When this is the case, we recommend the use of a (non-salt) water softening system.
The provision of a service stop valve in the cold supply pipe will assist in the event of any subsequent servicing or maintenance.
These heaters are of the closed type (closed system with no ventilation pressure) suitable for fitting to the normal input of cold water with a maximum of 94 PSI (6.5 bar). They must be fitted with a pressure valve adjacent to the entrance.
PREPARATION
1. Isolate electrical and water supplies BEFORE proceeding with the installation.

7. Use stainless steel flexible hose or copper tubing of ½" on the inlet and outlet
pipes (right side water inlet, hot water outlet, left).
8. Turn on the mains water supply to the water heater and then plug the unit at the isolated electrical outlet.
NOTE: The electrical supply is not turned on until all the pipes and the installation is complete.
THE WATER HEATER WILLTURN ON, WHEN YOU:
1. Turn on a water faucet.
2. The power indicator will light. TO STOPTHE WATER HEATER:
Turn off the faucet.
TO USE THE POWER SELECTOR:
The power selector knob has five positions:
The water temperature is altered by increasing or decreasing the flow rate of the water through the water heater, via the temperature control knob. Increased amperage settings will result in increased water temperature.
NOTE: If water pressure is low, the inlet pipe of the water should be ¾ "with outputs of 5/8".
The heater should be installed as close as possible to the point of use to avoid heat loss. If longer distances are required, hot water pipes should be insulated.
Adjust heater temperature settings (located on the front panel of the heater) to the desired output temperature. Lowering the power setting will save energy, but hot water temperature will decrease.
