General
DANGER: WATER TEMPERATURES OVER 125 °F CAN
!
CAUSE SEVERE BURNS INSTANTLY OR DEATH FROM
SCALDING. A HOT WATER SCALDING POTENTIAL EXISTS
IF THE THERMOSTAT ON THE UNIT IS SET TOO HIGH.
HOUSEHOLDS WITH SMALL CHILDREN, DISABLED OR
ELDERLY PERSONS MAY REQUIRE THAT THE THERMOSTAT
BE SET AT 120 °F OR LOWER TO PREVENT POSSIBLE
INJURY FROM HOT WATER.
The TEMPRA B and TEMPRA Plus units are designed to supply hot water
for a house, apartment or certain commercial applications. Unlike a
conventional storage type water heater the TEMPRA tankless water heater
does not store hot water. Instead, water is heated instantaneously as it
flows through the unit. The TEMPRA offers greater energy efficiency than
storage type water heaters due to the absence of stand-by losses and
reduced hot water pipe runs.
The input of heat into the water is controlled electronically. The TEMPRA
will deliver any water temperature between 86 °F (30 °C) and 140 °F (60 °C).
Please set the desired temperature using the knob on the front cover. The
TEMPRA Plus Temperature adjustment knob can be set to: OFF, 86...140 °F
(30...60 °C).
The TEMPRA B has a °F and a °C scale. The output temperature of the
TEMPRA Plus is shown in the digital display in °F or °C units. (°F or °C units
can be selected during installation, factory setting: °F). The maximum
temperature is electronically limited to 140 °F (60 °C).
For reasons of appliance efficiency and durability (scaling), the
optimum temperature setting lies between 86 °F (30 °C) and
120 °F (50 °C).
The outlet temperature of the TEMPRA Plus can be limited (see "Initial
settings").
TEMPRA B units:
In case the "Power" LED is flashing while the unit operates, the water
flow rate exceeds the heating capacity of the unit. Reduce the hot water
flow rate in order to let the unit achieve the set point temperature.
In case you have questions regarding the way you plan to use the TEMPRA
unit, please call our technical service line at 800-582-8423 (USA and
Canada). For service outside the U.S. and Canada, please call us at USA
