1. About this Kit
NORITZ IHK-NRCP offers the most efficient way to save energy and water by adding Temperature
Sensor and setting on the panel.
This kit is designed to deliver hot water to your entire home with the press of a button (within a few
minutes). There are no standby losses, no stack losses, and no need for extra storage tanks.
This kit can be used only on an external recirculation system with a dedicated return line.
Note> It may take a few minutes depending on the length of the pipe to
prepare hot water to the desired fixture.

3) Wiring for Push Button Switches
When you connect the push button switches to the terminal block, you can run cables from
each switch directly to the terminal block and connect them to the same terminal. Or, you can
run a common branch circuit that runs from the terminal block and connect each switch to the
branch.
Multiple switches connected directly to the same terminal at the terminal block.
