FILL ING THE WATER HEATER
CAUTION: Before connecting the power, fill the tank and system with water and check for leaks. BE SURE
ALL AIR IS REMOVED.
To be sure that all air is out of the water system, open the hot water faucets on your fixtures until constant
water flows from them. Otherwise, any air remaining in the tank will cause the water heater element to self-
destruct.
FILLING THE WATER HEATER
1. Open the hot water faucet.
2. Open the cold water supply valve.
3. When continuous water flows out of the faucet, the tank is filled.
4. Close the hot water faucet.
5. Check entire system for leaks.
USING AN AERATOR
It is highly recommended that an aerator be used together with models of 1.5 gallon capacity. The purpose of
the aerator is to restrict the amount of water flow exiting the unit which allows the water heater to produce
hot water for a longer duration. If an aerator is not used the 1.5 gallon capacity will be depleted quickly.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIO NS
To be certain that all of the air is out of the water heater, open the hot water faucet on your fixtures until
constant water flows from them. If air remains in the tank, the element will be damaged when connected to
power.
Connect the water heater to a GROUNDED POWER SUPPLY.
The mini tank water heater is fitted with an electrical connection that is intended to connect to a grounded
110-120 V/AC supply. Adhere to all pertinent state and local codes. Install the correct size circuit breaker into
the master panel. The mini tank water heater was manufactured and wired in accordance with UL
requirements.
The water heater is equipped with an overheat-limiting device with a manual reset. Also known as the
temperature high limit, this device has been factory installed to interrupt the power supply in the event of a
thermostat failure.
THIS WATER HEATER IS DESIGNED FOR ONLY 110-120V ELECTRICAL SERVICE. DO NOT CONNECT TO HIGHER
OR LOWER VOLTAGE.
Failure to use proper voltage may result in personal injury and/or property damage. If the supplied electrical
connection is either damaged or not long enough, do NOT use an extension cord. Have a licensed electrician
replace the power cord.
