IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNINGS
To avoid personal injury or damage to
equipment, the booster heater must be
installed by qualified, trained installers.
Installation must conform to all local
electrical and plumbing codes. Check with
your local plumbing and electrical inspectors
for proper procedures and codes.
To avoid any injury or damage to the booster
heater turn the power OFF at the disconnect
switch/circuit breaker and allow to cool
before performing any maintenance or
adjustments.
For proper electrical installation conforming 
to local electrical codes and the National
Electrical Code (N.E.C.), consult a licensed
electrical contractor.
To avoid injury or damage to dishwashing
equipment do not connect Hatco Electric
Booster Water Heaters to domestic
(consumer) dishmachines or other domestic 
utilized equipment.
To avoid any injury or damage to equipment
and to assure proper operation do not
connect an expansion tank of any type to
booster heater water lines.
To avoid personal injury or damage to the
Hatco Electric Booster Water Heater, only use
plumbing material suitable for a minimum
water temperature of 200°F (93°C). Materials
used must meet National Sanitation
Foundation (NSF) specifications and all local
plumbing codes and regulations.
To avoid personal injury or damage to the
unit aftermarket covers must not be placed
on or over the booster heater. Doing so can
cause temperature and moisture build-up
resulting in premature failure and electrical
shock.
It is essential to recognize that even though a
water heater may be properly installed
initially and approved, there always exists the
possibility that unknowing individuals might
alter or change the installation in a manner
that would render it unsafe. Therefore, it is
important that all safety programs provide
some mechanism to assure that these
installations are inspected periodically.
WARNINGS
Hatco has always endorsed the use of safety
equipment when using a booster water heater
or storage-type water heater. Hatco booster
heaters are shipped with a
temperature/pressure relief valve at no extra
charge. This valve must be installed into the
marked opening provided in the tank. Valves
supplied by Hatco are designed for high
temperature commercial operation. Do not
substitute Hatco supplied valves with valves
designed for domestic operation.
Temperature/pressure protective equipment
should not be less than a combination
temperature/pressure relief valve certified by
a nationally recognized testing laboratory
that maintains periodic inspection of the
production of this equipment and meets the
requirements for Relief Valves and Automatic
Shutoff Devices for Hot Water Supply
Systems, ANSI Z21.22-1979. The
temperature/pressure relief valve must be
marked with a minimum set pressure not to
exceed the marked hydrostatic test pressure
of the booster heater as noted on the unit
specifications.
To avoid personal injury or damage to the
equipment make sure the dishtable is strong
enough to support the weight of the booster
heater and water when installing with slide
mounting brackets.
To avoid personal injury or damage to the
equipment, follow standard welding
procedures when attaching sliderails to
bottom of dishtable.
Water in the unit is very hot. Wear protective
gloves and proper attire when operating to
avoid injury.
To assure proper operation and avoid a
possible unsafe condition, the booster heater
must be installed in a horizontal position with
the base parallel to the floor and the inlet
connection at the lowest point.
This product contains fiberglass, a product
known to the state of California to cause

combustible vapors are present.
