Working with gas can be dangerous. Please employ a professional to install your
water heater in order to comply with local building codes.
1. Securely mount the water heater to the wall in an appropriate location using the
supplied hardware.
2. Install the venting per local building codes and the instructions supplied.
3. Connect the ½" gas line and secure the gas valves with the provided rubber
seal. Use two wrenches to tighten the gas inlet during installation. It is highly rec-
ommended to avoid Teflon tape, as it can ignite in case of gas leaks. It is crucial to
check for gas leaks using detergent bubbles after making connections.
4. Connect the water lines (all connections are ½"). Use ½" or ¾" pipe or tubing for
the water supply and return. If water pressure or flow rates are questionable use
¾" lines to ensure maximum flow. You MUST use copper, CPVC or appliance
tubing intended for use in hot water applications for all hot water lines.
5. Check for and correct water leaks as necessary.
6. Install the batteries in the battery compartment. Be sure the polarity of the
batteries is correct.
7. Turn on the faucet and adjust the water and gas settings on the water heater as
needed for your specific environment and comfort. **USE CAUTION NOT TO GET
SCALDED WHILE ADJUSTING YOUR SETTINGS** Remember that more water
flow will usually result in less heating, and vice versa. Higher gas settings result in
more heating, and vice versa.
8. Begin enjoying instant, energy efficient hot water for years to come!
