NOTE: Obey all local codes. Obtain all applicable permits
before installing the water heater.
NOTE: Install all system components and piping in such a
manner that does not reduce the performance of any re
rated assembly.
A. When Servicing the Water Heating System
To avoid electric shock, disconnect electrical supply before
performing maintenance.
To avoid severe burns, allow water heater and associated
equipment to cool before servicing.
B. Heater Water
Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds in
a water heating system. Gaskets and seals in the system may
be damaged. This can result in substantial property damage.
Do not use “homemade cures” or “patent medicines”.
Damage to the water heater, substantial property damage,
and/or serious personal injury may result.
C. Freeze Protection
NOTE: Consider piping and installation when determining
heater location. Place the water heater as close to the boiler
as possible, in a location not prone to freezing.
Failure of the water heater due to freeze related damage IS
NOT covered by product warranty.
NEVER use any toxic chemical, including automotive, standard
glycol antifreeze, or ethylene glycol made for hydronic (non-
potable) systems. These chemicals can attack gaskets and seals
in water systems, are poisonous if consumed, and can cause
personal injury or death.
NOTE: If the heater is exposed to the following, do not
operate until all corrective steps have been made by a
qualied serviceman:
1. Fire
2. Damage
3. Water
Failure to follow this information could result in property
damage, severe personal injury, or death.
UNCRATING THE WATER HEATER - Any claims for damage
or shortage in shipment must be led immediately against
the transportation company by the consignee.
Do not use this water heater for anything other than its
intended purpose (as described in this manual). Doing so
could result in propertly damage and WILL VOID product
warranty.
High heat sources (sources generating heat 100
o
F / 37
o
C or
greater, such as stove pipes, space heaters, etc.) may damage
plastic components of the water heater as well as plastic
vent pipe materials. Such damages ARE NOT covered by
warranty. It is recommended to keep a minimum clearance of
8” from high heat sources. Observe heat source manufacturer
instructions, as well as local, state, provincial, and national
codes, laws, regulations and ordinances when installing this
water heater and related components near high heat sources.
D. Water Temperature Adjustment
If the water heater is going to have a set temperature above
120
o
F, you must use an ASSE 1017 rated mixing valve to avoid
severe burns or death from scalding temperatures.
Approximate Time / Temperature Relationships in Scalds
120
o
F More than 5 minutes
125
o
F 1 1/2 to 2 minutes
130
o
F About 30 seconds
135
o
F About 10 seconds
140
o
F Less than 5 seconds
145
o
F Less than 3 seconds
150
o
F About 1 1/2 seconds
155
o
F About 1 second

Part 2 - Prepare the Water Heater
COLD WEATHER HANDLING - If the water heater has been
stored in a very cold location (BELOW 0
o
F) before installation,
handle with care until the components come to room
temperature. Failure to do so could result in damage to the
water heater.
Remove all sides of the shipping crate to allow the heater to be
moved into its installation location.
Households with small children, disabled, or elderly persons
may require a 120
o
F or lower temperature setting to prevent
severe personal injury or death due to scalding.
A. Locating the Water Heater
High heat sources (generating heat 100
o
F / 37
o
C or greater,
such as stove pipes, space heaters, etc.) may damage plastic
components of the water heater as well as plastic vent pipe
materials. Such damages ARE NOT covered by warranty. It is
recommended to keep a minimum clearance of 8” from high
heat sources. Observe heat source manufacturer instructions,
as well as local, state, provincial, and national codes, laws,
regulations, and ordinances when installing this water heater
and related components near high heat sources.
Locate the water heater where any leakage from the relief valve,
related piping, tank, or connections will not result in damage
to surrounding areas or lower oors of the building. The water
heater should be located near a oor drain or installed in a drain
pan. HTP WILL NOT be held liable for leakage damages.
