This is a water heating apparatus only and the delivered water quality is dependent upon the
quality of water supplied to this system.
Although the water heater is designed to operate with minimal noise level, you should not
install 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 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.
