SAFETY FEATURES
Water controlled automatic ignition: If the hot water tap is turned on, the unit will automatically ignite & deliver hot water from the tap water outlet.
Auto cut-off protection: (1) The auto cut-off protection will extinguish the gas supply immediately if the water supply is too low (less than 8L /min or the unit overheats (water hotter than 85C). (2) Unit will shut down the gas supply within 4 minutes when used without a flue.
Low water pressure start-up function: When water supply pressure is lower than 0.025Mpa, the water heater cannot be ignited. Fit water pressure pump to boost pressure.
Anti-freeze protection: When temperature is very low, remove the water discharge valve to discharge accumulated water inside the water pipe to avoid damage caused by freezing when the water heater is not in use.
High-pressure protection: Once water pressure is over 0.8Mpa, the water discharge valve will release water & lower the pressure. This will happen automatically to avoid damage.
