FILLING THE WATER HEATER
CAUTION!: Before connecting the power, fill the tank and system with water and
check for leaks. Be sure ALL AIR IS REMOVED.
To be sure that all air is out of the water system, open the hot water faucets
on your fixtures until constant water flows from them. Otherwise any air
remaining in the tank will cause the water heater element to self-destruct.
Filling the water heater:
1. Open the hot water faucet.
2. Open the cold water supply valve.
3. When continuous water flows out of the faucet, the tank is filled.
4. Close the hot water faucet.
5. Check entire system for leaks.
Using an Aerator (EMT 1 model only)
It is highly recommended that an aerator be used together with model EMT
1. The purpose of the aerator is to restrict the amount of water flow exiting
the EMT 1 which allows the water heater to produce hot water for a longer
duration. If the aerator is not used the 1.5 gallon capacity of the EMT 1 will
be depleted quickly.
