Please follow one of the procedures described below to ensure that the neutralizer unit is filled with water.
1) Fill the neutralizer unit by pouring approx. 17 oz.(500ml) of water into the exhaust accessory on the top of
the appliance as illustrated below.

2) After installing the drain pipe, make sure that the area around the appliance is well ventilated; open a
window or a door if necessary.
Then, operate the unit and verify that condensate is coming out of the drain pipe.
(During normal use of the water heater, condensate will begin to discharge from the drain pipe within 15 minutes
of use. However, depending on the season and/or installation site conditions, it may take longer.)
