Lists unit dimensions and connections for BD-24-DWH and BD-27-DWH.
Secure to solid surface, install upright with connections at bottom.
Do not install above electrical boxes or junctions.
Keep flammable materials at least two feet away from heater and hot pipe.
Comply with codes, install drip pan or leak detector for leakage prevention.
Remove cover, mount unit, ensure level with connections at bottom.
Follow codes; consult a plumber if unsure.
Do not solder pipes with unit connected to avoid flow sensor damage.
T&P valve not usually required, but check local codes; recommended for safety.
Piping must withstand 8 BAR; minimum flow rate of 0.5 GPM.
Use flexible hoses, hold connection with wrench to avoid damaging flow sensor.
Thoroughly flush cold supply line of debris.
Connect HOT WATER to OUTLET, COLD-WATER to INLET.
Open faucets for 2-3 minutes to purge air before turning on power.
Inspect all connections and relief device for leaks after installation.
Install according to codes; consult an electrician if unsure.
Crucial to shut off all power at breaker before installation/repair.
Comply with NEC/CEC for wiring gauge and breaker size.
Ensure sufficient electrical power for heater's maximum amperage load.
24kW/27kW heaters require 3 sets of wire and ground.
Connect wire pair to breaker (black/red), ensure power is off.
Run power cables from breaker to heater using suitable wire gauge.
Unit requires a ground conductor for the incoming circuit.
Ensure connections are correct, tight, secure, proper gauge/breaker. Reattach cover.
Ensure air is purged, then restore power via circuit breaker.
Chart showing max temp rise for given flow rates at different inlet temps.
Read procedures for maximum performance and energy savings.
Explains on-demand heating, energy savings, and continuous hot water.
Flow sensor detects demand, activates elements, sensors monitor temps.
Heater capacity limited by flow rate; exceeding it prevents sufficient heating.
Unit heats to lower temps; mix less cold water or none for comfort.
Inlet water temp varies by season, affecting hot water supply.
Water quality must meet recommended levels to prevent damage.
Chart detailing acceptable pH, TDS, Hardness, and mineral levels.
Periodic inspections for damage, fix immediately, do not over-tighten.
Use descaling solution, maintenance valves; flush unit yearly/bi-yearly for hard water.
Clean pre-filter on inlet side every six months to remove debris.
Crucial to power off and purge air before powering up after maintenance.
