Never close existing ventilation openings The service life of the water heater’s exposed metallic surfaces, such as the junction box, is directly influenced by proximity to damp and salty marine environments. In such areas, higher concentration levels of chlorides from sea spray coupled with relative humidity can lead to degradation of water heater components. This water heater is certified for indoor installations only. Do not install the water heater outdoors.
PART 3 – HEATER PIPING A. INSTALLING ELECTRIC ELEMENTS This water heater DOES NOT ship with installed heating elements. A separate element kit must be acquired (see Table 2 for a list of element kits). NOTE: Piping and filling this water heater WITHOUT installing an element kit will result in a leakage of water, property damage, and possible personal injury. Damages due to such a condition WILL VOID the warranty. HTP, Inc. is not liable for any damages caused by such a condition.
1. On 10, 15, and 20 gallon models, install a shut-off valve and the combination inlet / drain valve to the inlet connection near the bottom of heater. On all other models, install a shut-off valve on the inlet connection on the top of heater. Connect the cold water supply line to the shut-off valve. Refer to Piping Detail, Figure 4. 2. Connect hot water line to the connection marked “HOT” on the top of the heater. 3.
Automatic Gas Shutoff Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22B / CSA 4.4-M99, by a nationally recognized testing laboratory that maintains periodic inspection of production of listed equipment and materials. This valve must be marked with a maximum set pressure not to exceed the marked maximum working pressure of the water heater.
This heater can deliver scalding water. Be careful whenever using hot water to avoid scalding injury. Certain appliances, such as dishwashers and automatic clothes washers may require increased water temperature. By setting the thermostat on this heater to obtain the increased water temperature required by these appliances, you may create the potential for scald injury. To protect against injury, you should install a mixing valve in the water system.

The installer is responsible for all equipment and detailing required by local codes. PART 4 – HEATER WIRING Tank must be full of water before power is turned on. Heating elements will be damaged if energized for even a short time while tank is dry. Failures due to “dry-firing” are NOT covered by warranty.
Refer to the wiring diagrams below for field connections. All wiring must conform to local code and the National Electric Code, and should be done by a qualified licensed electrician or the local electric utility. Grounding can be accomplished by using approved conduit and fittings or other approved conductive material. A grounding wire is provided on the junction bracket. This grounding wire must be used in the installation.
Figure 9 – Dual Element Model Wiring Detail for EVC030, EVC040, EVC050, EVC080, and EVC115 Models ONLY Be sure to ground the water heater. The preferred way to ground is with rigid metal conduit between the main panel and the water heater junction box with approved end fittings (check codes on the use of flexible conduit). If making a separate ground, a green ground wire is provided in the water heater junction box.

STEP #4 a. Reset the ECO by pushing in the red button marked “RESET”. b. Adjust water temperature by turning the white adjustment knob. Turning the knob to the right (clockwise) makes the water hotter. Turning the knob to the left (counterclockwise) makes the water cooler. Risk of scald injury increases as you increase water temperature. STEP #5 – Replace the insulation. Failure to replace insulation could result in property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
DO NOT replace heating element with a generic heating element. Only HTP heating elements are approved for use with this water heater. Failure to follow this warning will result in premature product failure and VOID the warranty. STEP #3 – Remove the element with a 1 ½” socket wrench or element tool. STEP #4 – Ensure thread and opening are completely free of debris. STEP #5 – Put a small amount of NSF approved lubricant and sealant on the O-Ring.
To flush the tank, attach a hose to the field installed drain valve. Close supply line shut-off valve. Open drain line valve and hot water faucet(s) to vent heater while draining. Direct the flow of water to a drain or bucket where it will not cause damage. Water drained from the water heater may be scalding hot. Take care to avoid scalding. Wear gloves and safety glasses, and direct water to a safe drainage location.
6. Turn power supply off to the water heater. Open the drain valve and drain a few gallons of water from the tank to clear the tank of any hard water deposits. Once complete, close the drain valve and restore power to the water heater. PART 8 – TROUBLESHOOTING The following table details operating issues, possible causes, and service remedies.
