strainer screen be installed for unit debris protection
and warranty coverage. Eemax also commends 2
unions, 2 full flow ball valves and two drain plugs be
installed for future serviceability. These components

BEFORE BEGINNING ANY WORK ON THIS INSTALLATION, BE SURE THAT THE
ELECTRICAL BREAKER IS “OFF” AND THAT ALL MOUNTING AND PLUMBING
WORK HAS BEEN COMPLETED PER THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
This heater must have its own independent circuit using insulated, UL listed wire conductors of the
appropriate size suitable for up to 90° C and protected by the correctly rated circuit breaker.
