1.2 GENERAL REMARKS
CAUTION
Prior to connecting the power supply, ensure tank is full of water and system is purged of air.
CAUTION
The manufacturer cannot be responsible for the damages caused by improper installation or by failure to follow instructions in this
manual. Comply with the installation instructions before completing electric connection.
CAUTION
The thermostat has been pre-set at the factory at a temperature:
-
Equal or below 51.7°C (125° F) for NTI COMPACT 2.5, NTI COMPACT 4 and NTI COMPACT 6 (See fig. 2/4).
CAUTION
Hydrogen gas can be produced in a hot water system served by this heater that has not been used for a long period of time (gen-
erally 2 weeks or more). Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable. To reduce the risk of injury under these conditions, it is recommen
ded that the hot water faucet be opened for several minutes at the kitchen sink before using any electrical appliance connected to
the hot water system. If hydrogen gas is present, there will probably be an unusual sound such as air escaping through the pipe as
the water begins to flow. There should be no smoking or open flame near the faucet at the time.
CAUTION
Any water heater should be installed in such a manner that if it should leak, the resulting flow of water will not cause damage to the
area in which it is installed. National Plumbing codes require a drain pan for any water heater installation. Failure to install one is
the sole responsibility of owner and/or installer. Reference UPC 2000 (Uniform Plumbing Code) Section 510- Protection from
Damage or IPC 2000 (International Plumbing Code) Section 504- Safety Devices.
