1. Make sure that the wall can withstand at least twice
the weight of the water heater when completely filled
with water.
2. Before locating the position for installation of the
water heater, make sure that there is sufficient
clearance available for the product. This clearance is
required for easy installation and maintenance. Refer
Fig. 1A or Fig. 1B for minimum clearances required
according to the model.
3. Use a drill bit with diameter of 10 mm to drill 2 holes
at least 90 mm deep in the wall (Fig. 3). The two holes
should be aligned horizontally. The horizontal distance
between the 2 holes is shown in the above table (Fig. 2).
4. Insert the expansion anchors into the holes. Place the wall mounting bracket over
the expansion anchors and tighten the screws on the bracket (Fig. 3).
5. Place the water heater on wall mounting bracket (Fig. 4) using hanger hooks. Tug
downwards on the heater to ensure that the water heater is fixed steadily.
