4. Setup and Installation
The Sygonix SY-5773110 is designed for easy installation, integrating directly into your existing faucet setup. All necessary installation parts are included.
- Prepare the Installation Area: Ensure the water supply is turned off at the main valve before beginning installation. Clear the area under the sink for easy access.
- Mount the Faucet: Insert the threaded pipe of the instant water heater faucet into the mounting hole on your sink or countertop.
- Secure the Faucet: From underneath the sink, place the rubber washer, metal washer, and then the locking nut onto the threaded pipe. Tighten the locking nut securely to prevent movement.
- Connect Water Supply: Connect the cold water supply line to the designated inlet on the faucet unit. Ensure all connections are tight to prevent leaks. Note: This unit is designed for cold water input only, as it heats the water internally.
- Connect Power: Plug the power cable into a standard, grounded 230V AC electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet is easily accessible and not exposed to water.
- Check for Leaks: Slowly turn on the main water supply and check all connections for any leaks. Tighten connections if necessary.

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your instant water heater.

Consult a qualified plumber for descaling procedures or use a suitable descaling agent designed for water heaters, following its instructions carefully.
- Filter Cleaning: Periodically check and clean any inlet filters to ensure unobstructed water flow.
- Winterization (if applicable): If the device is installed in an area where temperatures can drop below freezing, ensure the unit is drained to prevent damage from freezing water.
