1.3.3. Waste Gas (Flue) Leakages
If you smell flue gas!
• Turn off the device.
• Open the windows and doors.
• Notify a trained and certified installer. Insufficient ventilation can cause
toxic flue gas to escape. There is a risk of poisoning.
• Never close or reduce the air inlet and outlet (vent) openings.
• The device should not be operated until the reasons preventing the
discharge of waste gas are eliminated.
• Ensure that the ventilation pipes and flues are not damaged or clogged
due to the danger caused by waste gases coming out.
• Connect only one device to each ventilation system or flue outlet.
• The ventilation system pipes must not be connected to another air
discharge duct.
• Do not pass the flue system pipes through another air discharge duct.
• Works on gas (gas line) components can only be carried out by a trained
and certified installer due to the danger of explosion of flammable gases.
1.3.4. Combustion Air;
• Keep combustion air away from corrosive substances (halogenated
hydrocarbons containing chlorine or fluorine compounds).
• Never close the ventilation vents!
1.3.5. Inspection and Maintenance;
• Maintenance and repairs may be carried out only by a trained and certified
Warmhaus service.
• Correct any installation errors immediately to avoid damage to the system.
1.3.6. Electrical Shock Hazard
Make sure that only an authorized electrician performs the
electrical works.
Before performing an electrical work, turn off the power and
secure the unit against unintentional reconnection. Make sure that
the system is disconnected from the electrical supply.

1.3.7. Risk of Getting Scalded by Hot Water Faucet
When the water heater is running, the
temperature may exceed 50 °C. To prevent
such situations, the temperature in the tap
should be limited by installing a thermostatic
mixing valve.
Heated water for washing laundry, dishes and other cleaning
purposes can cause scalding and permanent injuries.
Children, the elderly and the disabled are more likely to be
permanently injured by hot water. Never leave such persons
unattended in the bathtub or shower under any circumstances.
Children should not be allowed to use the hot water taps themselves
or fill a bathtub!
1.3.8. Risk of Getting Injured by Flue Pipes
Avoid contact with the flue pipes. The temperature of the flue pipes can
be up to 60 °C depending on the settings of the water heater and the hot
season conditions.
