FAQs

How do I turn on the water heater?

The water heater operates automatically when cold water enters the unit. Ensure the power is on.

How often should I check the unit?

Regularly check for leaks, and ensure the unit is functioning correctly. A visual inspection every month is a good practice.

What is the warranty period?

The product comes with a standard warranty, see the product documentation for details.

Can I install this myself?

It is recommended that you have the unit installed by a qualified professional to ensure safety and correct operation.

Why is there water dripping from the spout?

The outlet is open to the atmosphere to release pressure as the water heats and expands. This is normal.

Ensure the water inlet valve is fully open and the unit has adequate time to heat the water. If the problem persists, check for any blockages.
