The installation of Electric storage water heater directly impacts its safety and lifespan. We need pay special attention to the following five key points:

 1. Choosing the Installation Location

Must be installed on a load-bearing wall, ensuring the wall can support more than twice the weight of the unit when filled with water. Maintain sufficient clearance around the unit for maintenance (recommended at least 30cm). Avoid installing in ceiling cavities or damp areas. 

 2. Standard Water Connection Requirements 

A pressure relief valve must be installed upstream of the inlet, with its discharge port connected to a floor drain via a hose. Use thread seal tape on all pipe connections. After installation, check for water leaks before powering on.

 3. Electrical Safety Specifications  

Must use a dedicated circuit with wires ≥4mm² and an independent 16A leakage protection switch. Never use standard sockets or extension cords. Ensure the ground wire is reliably connected.

 4. Installation Detail Management  

Ensure the water heater is installed level; tilting may cause the heating element to dry-fire. Reserve operational space for anode rod replacement to avoid "installed but unserviceable" situations. 

 5. Post-Installation Inspection

After installation, verify the leakage protection switch functions correctly. Observe whether the pressure relief valve operates effectively during heating and confirm there are no leaks at any connections. It is recommended to choose professional installation services provided by the brand. Proper installation is the primary guarantee for the safe operation of an electric water heater.
