It is recommended that a dedicated control valve be installed on the cold water line supplying water to this system.
If you suspect elevated levels of chlorine in your water, or your water has a rusty appearance before the installation
of this unit, it is recommended to use our water filtration system.
This product contains stainless steel. The manufacturer cannot guarantee against rusty water because of the
number of factors that are involved beyond the manufacturer’s control. However, the sudden appearance of rusty
water discharged from the hot water dispenser may indicate the need for service or replacement of this product.
The use of a water filter should NOT result in the water pressure to drop below 30 psi (207kPa). If it does, this will
prevent your unit from operating properly.
Moving parts inside the tank causing a rattling noise is normal.
