Step 3: Cut the Water and Power Off

​When installing any electrical system, safety must come first. Cut the electricity to the existing water heater at the electrical panel. Likewise, turn off the water supply to the outdated water heater to avoid any leaks while it's being removed.

Step4: Take Out the Antiquated Water Heater

Remove the old water heater's electrical wiring and water supply lines with caution. After releasing the fittings with the pipe wrench, take the old unit out of its place.

Step 5: Installing the New Water Heater

​Make sure the new electric water heater is positioned correctly in the designated area. Using a pipe wrench, attach the water supply lines and tighten the fittings. Look closely for any leaks of water. Keep in mind that only specialists should install the best water heaters.

Step 6: Examine the Electrical Link

​For information on the precise electrical requirements for your Essco water heater, refer to the manufacturer's instructions. After stripping the wire ends with the wire stripper, attach them to the appropriate terminals on the water heater. Use wire connectors to firmly secure the connections. After finishing, switch on the electrical panel's power supply.

Step 7: Put water in the heater and test it.

To allow the air to escape from the water heater tank, open a hot water tap in your house. The tank is full when the faucet produces a steady stream of water. Inspect for any water leaks and, if required, tighten connections.

To suit your tastes, change the water heater's temperature setting. For safety and energy economy, it is advised to set the temperature at about 120°F (49°C).
