Do not install a non-return check valve within 10 feet of the inlet . Do not apply heat or solder to
connections or pipes if they are already directly connected to the unit.
Fitting the pipes
•
The unit should be connected directly to the main cold water supply and not to pre -heated water .
(The inlet water temperature must not be greater than 86°F.) The unit should be installed with shut-
off valves on both the inlet and outlet connections.
•
It is recommended that you use ¾ inch or ½ inch copper or high -pressure flex connections.
Use Teflon tape for sealing pipe threads. Do NOT use pipe dope.

•
Remember to keep the hot water pipe runs as short as possible.
After the unit has been plumbed, and before you wire it, flush it with water to remove any debris or
•
loose particles. Failure to do so may make the unit inoperable.
Connecting the unit to the pipes
•
The inlet and outlet connections are clearly marked on the unit. They each have a ¾ inch NPT
connector.

Install a ball valve in the cold water line. This valve can be used to turn off the water supply to the
unit if it needs servicing, or to reduce the water flow if it is too high.
