Heats Efficiently with Extra Safety Features
Heats Efficiently with Extra Safety Features

The louvered vent top keeps the heating unit clean, protected from falling debris, and creates a draft for efficient combustion - more heat, less gas. Use the removable drain valve to avoid water pipe and regulator damage caused by freezing.

The safety tilt switch ensures shutoff if the unit tips from the standard position. Automatic shut off after 20 minutes of non-use.

Insta-Hot® 2 Requirements
Insta-Hot® 2 Requirements

The Insta-Hot® 2 requires a minimum of 20 PSI water pressure to run correctly. The safety tilt feature will not allow the unit to ignite if the unit is not 100% upright. Requires (4) AA batteries (not included). The unit should be stored in a dry and protected environment when not in use, drained completely and lines blown out before exposed to freezing temperatures.

You can use any standard 1/2" or 3/4" horse with the unit (larger diameter hoses decrease the pressure more). Any standard hose nozzle can be used, but we recommend a brass twist hose nozzle due to pressure to the unit.

Note: Our units have been tested up to 2,000ft above sea level, and we only recommend using them below 2,000 ft for maximum performance. For every 1,000ft above the recommended 2,000 ft, there will be a 10% decrease in efficiency and performance.
