near the Tempra may cause damage.
The cold water connection to the unit must be discon-
nected periodically in order to clean the filter screen.
It is required to use water connections that are easily
detachable such as braided steel flex connectors.

count may damage the unit. Damage to the unit caused
by scale or a high mineral count is not covered under
the warranty.
All plumbing work must comply with national and applicable
state and local plumbing codes.
A pressure reducing valve must be installed if the cold water
supply pressure exceeds 150 PSI (10 bar).
Make certain that the cold water supply line has been flushed
to remove any scale and dirt.

The cold water connection (inlet) is on the right side of the
unit, and the hot water connection (outlet) is on the left side
of the unit.
NOTICE: Tankless water heaters such as the Tempra
!
are not required to be equipped with a temperature
and pressure relief valve (T&P). If the local inspector
will not pass the installation without a T&P, it should
be installed on the hot water outlet side of the unit.
The Tempra on the hot side is designed for connection to
copper tubing, PEX tubing or a braided stainless steel hose
with a 3/4" NPT female tapered thread.
The plumbing on the cold water inlet side needs to be such
that it can easily be removed to allow access to the inlet filter
screen. The easiest way to achieve this is to us a stainless
steel braided hose connector. If soldering near the unit is
necessary, please direct the flame away from the housing of
the unit in order to avoid damage.
When all plumbing work is completed, check for leaks and
take corrective action before proceeding.
