connection. Further tighten the nuts with torque
wrench in specified torque as stated in the table.
If non-brass metallic piping is used for installation,
make sure to insulate the pipes to prevent galvanic
corrosion.
Make sure to insulate the water circuit pipes to
prevent reduction of heating capacity.
After installation, check the water leakage condition
in connection area during test run.
