2- SELECTING A LOCATION TO INSTALL
This product is designed to be installed indoors only. You may install your unit in an outdoor location so long as
it is mounted in a suitable enclosure that protects it from rain, splashed water, direct sunlight, debris, and
insects.
DO NOT install this product in a location where it may be subjected to freezing temperatures. If the water inside
your tankless water heater freezes, it can cause severe and permanent damage that is not covered under your
warranty.
DO NOT locate the water heater in a location that is difficult to access.
Make sure that the water heater and hot water outlet pipe are out of reach of children so they are unable to
tamper with the temperature controls or injure themselves by touching the hot water outlet pipe. The outlet
water pipe can get very hot.
This product does NOT require venting.
Avoid installing your tankless water heater in a location prone to excessive humidity, moisture, or dust, or in an
area where it may be splashed with water or other liquids. DO NOT install under water pipes or air conditioning
lines that might leak or condense moisture that could then drip onto the heater. DO NOT install above electrical
boxes or junctions.
CAUTION: The water heater should not be located in an area where leakage will result in damage to the area
adjacent to it or to lower floors of the structure. Where such areas cannot be avoided, it is recommended that
a suitable catch pan, adequately drained, be installed under the water heater.
3- MOUNTING YOUR WATER HEATER
Your tankless water heater should be secured to the mounting surface with 4 screws (minimum 1-inch long)
using the built-in mounting brackets on each side of the heater. Make sure that the mounting surface is solid
and secure, and ensure that the unit is level prior to securing the screws. For ease of installation and servicing,
we recommend that this product be installed in an upright position with the inlet and outlet water connections
at the bottom of the unit for the ECO 18, ECO 24, ECO 27, and ECO 36, and with the inlet and outlet water
connections on the left and right sides of the unit for the ECO 8 and ECO 11.
Recommended Clearances: 12 inches above and below the heater
6 inches in front of and to the sides of the heater
CAUTION: Combustible materials should be kept at least 24 inches away from your water heater and the hot
water outlet pipe.
