SELECTING AN INSTALL LOCATION
MOUNTING YOUR WATER HEATER
This product is designed to be installed indoors only.
DO NOT install this product in a location where it may be subjected to freezing
temperatures. If the water inside your tankless electric water heater freezes, it can cause severe
and permanent damage that is not covered under your warranty.
DO NOT locate the tankless electric water heater in a location that is difcult to access.
Make sure that the water heater and hot water outlet pipe are out of reach of children so they
are unable to tamper with the temperature controls or injure themselves by touching the hot
water outlet pipe. The outlet water pipe can get very hot.
This product does NOT require venting.
Avoid installing your tankless electric water heater in a location prone to excessive humidity,
moisture, or dust, or in an area where it may be splashed with water or other liquids. DO NOT
install under water pipes or air conditioning lines that might leak or condense moisture that
could then drip onto the heater. DO NOT install above electrical boxes or junctions.
CAUTION: The water heater should not be located in an area where leakage
will result in damage to the area adjacent to it or to lower oors of the structure. Where such
areas cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a suitable catch pan, adequately drained,
be installed under the water heater. Make sure to follow all code requirements for such instal-
lations as required for your area. We recommend that you install a drip pan (connected to a
safe drain) below the water heater to avoid property damage in the unlikely event of a leak.
Alternatively, you can install an active water leak detector and shutoff valve designed to turn
off your water supply in the event that a leak is ever detected.
Your tankless water heater should be secured to the mounting surface with 4 appropriate screws
(minimum 1” (25.4mm) long) follow the installation template for heaters (found printed inside the
box). Ensure the mounting surface is solid and secure, and that the unit is level prior to securing the
screws. For ease of installation and servicing, we recommend that this product be installed in an
upright position with the inlet and outlet water connections at the bottom of the unit.
Required Clearances:
6” (304.8mm) above and
below the heater
6” (152.4mm) in front of
and to the sides of the
heater
CAUTION: Combustible
materials should be kept
at least 24” away from
your water heater and the
hot water outlet pipe.

HOW TO INSTALL:
1. Locate the mounting surface. Level the template and mark the 4 holes on the template
with a pencil.
2. Pre-drill the 4 holes as shown on template.
3. Insert and tighten mounting screws into pre-drilled holes. Use appropriate screws and anchors
for mounting surface (wood, drywall, masonry, etc).
4. Hang the heater onto screws making sure it is secure.
