    Locate the water heater where any leakage from the relief valve, related piping, tank, or connections will not result in damage to surrounding areas or lower floors of the building. The water heater should be located near a floor drain, or installed in a drain pan. HTP WILL NOT be held liable for leakage damages.
  • Page 6 Incorrect ambient conditions can lead to damage to the heating system and put safe operation at risk. Ensure that the installation location adheres to the information included in this manual. Failure to do so could result in property damage, serious personal injury, or death.

    PART 4 – HEATER WIRING This unit is factory wired to a junction box on top of the water heater. A 4 x 4 x 2 junction box is located on top of the unit for field wiring connection. These heaters are equipped and wired as standard 120 volt AC (for point of use heaters) and 240 volt AC (for dual element heaters).
  • Page 12: Part 5 - Operating The Heater

    PART 5 – OPERATING THE HEATER Tank must be full of water before power is turned on. Heating elements will be damaged if energized for even a short time while tank is dry. Failures due to “dry-firing” are NOT covered by warranty. After water and electrical connections have been made and tank is filled with water, turn on power to heater.
  • Page 13: Part 6 - Maintenance

    DO NOT replace heating element with a generic heating element. Only HTP heating elements are approved for use with this water heater. Failure to follow this warning will result in premature product failure and VOID the warranty.
  • Page 14 Monthly (Every two weeks in hard water locations) It is recommended that a few quarts of water be drained from the heater. This will flush sediment deposits from the bottom of the heater and lengthen the heater’s service life. Turn off power to the heater during flushing operation, so the element(s) will not be damaged. Failure to shut off power to the heater when draining may damage the heating elements.
