This well engineered, tankless gas water heater has all the features a water heater should have:

The instantaneous principle of heating water is very simple. Cold water enters the heater when a hot water faucet is opened. This flow of wa- ter causes the gas valve to open. Gas flows to the burners and is ignited by the pilot flame. The heat exchanger then absorbs the heat gen- erated by the burners and transfers it to the cold water as it travels through the heat ex- changer. When the hot water is turned off, the gas valve automatically closes and the burn- ers shut off. Your hot water faucet is an igni- tion key for hot water. You now have complete control over your hot water energy use. [See pages 22-26 for detailed Description of Opera- tion and Parts Layout Diagrams].

FEATURES

Automatic thermostatic control for steady hot water temperature. Burner output is proportional to water flow for maximum energy efficiency.

Safety thermocouple at pilot and burner.

Automatic Energy Cut-Off mechanism.

Built-in gas shut-off valve.

Stainless steel burners with stabilized blue flame.

Built-in corrosion resistant draft inducer.

Long working life insured by heavy-duty high quality materials.

Compact space saver: mounts on wall with four screws.

Easy installation.

41/4 gpm (removable) flow restrictor to ensure water flow will never exceed heater capacity.
