Geyser Installation Safety Guide: Plumbing & Water Pressure Essentials

### Safe Water Heater Installation Essentials

Electric and gas water heaters operate under high pressure and thermal stress. Improper plumbing can lead to tank bursts, scalding hot water back-siphonage, and electric shocks.

- **Always Install the Multi-Function Valve (MFV):** This valve combines a non-return valve (preventing water from draining out of the tank when the main supply stops) with a pressure release valve (venting excess expansion pressure). Never plug the drain nozzle. - **Use Heavy-Duty Stainless Steel Braided Hoses:** Never use cheap thin plastic pipes for hot water lines; they soften under high temperatures and burst unexpectedly. - **Ensure Structural Anchor Bolts for Storage Geysers:** A 25-liter geyser weighs over 35 kg when full of water. It must be anchored into solid brick or concrete using heavy metal fasteners.
