Delivery and setup
- Inspect the carton for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt. Approximate shipping weight is 47 lb.
- A qualified electrician must install the unit to local electrical codes. Installation by unqualified personnel voids the Hatco warranty.
- Install with a ribbon putty gasket between the unit and the countertop, per the Hatco manual; a factory-installed gasket is an option at order.
- Let the well cool to room temperature before you switch between wet and dry operation, and never let it run dry while set up for wet operation.
- Auto-fill: bring a potable water line to the 1/4" NPT connection (25 to 100 psi, 60 to 110°F); incoming water pipes must be FDA compliant.
- Drain sealants must be rated for 500°F or higher.
Questions buyers ask
What size cutout do I need?
Cut the countertop 14.19" to 14.37" wide and 29.188" to 29.438" deep. The unit is 15.5" W x 30.375" D x 9.62" H. Leave at least 3-1/2" below the unit to any combustible surface.
What electrical service does it need?

Is a cord and plug included?
No. It is hard wired as standard. Hatco offers a factory cord with a NEMA 6-15P plug, single phase only, at time of order.

This is a single-well unit. Hatco builds the same 4/3-size wells in ganged units of 2 to 6 wells (HWBI43-2 to -6) if you need more.
What warranty does it have?
Hatco's limited warranty covers the metal-sheathed heated well element for 1 year parts and labor plus 1 more year parts only. Other parts carry Hatco's standard 18-month limited warranty. Register the unit with Hatco within 90 days of factory shipment to qualify for added coverage.
