It seems unprofessional that Bosch, or any tankless manufacturer, would suggest self-installment when each tankless manufacturer pointedly says their product should be install and maintained by person specifically trained by manufacturer. Especially when it is widely known that self-installed units can void the warranty.
That being said.
Cover on your unit should come off. Unit is attached to wall with screws/toggles at each corner.
Gas line (assuming gas heater) should have a union located on gas line near tankless unit.
Hot and cold pipes are located on bottom of unit.
Vent stack is attached to top.
Specific plumbing techniques are used for each item shown above.
If you are not fully qualified to work with gas appliances, or have no plumbing experience, I suggest taking advantage of fixya paid service where expert walks you through each step while you work on unit.
But you need the tools and vocabulary, and remember the expert cannot see what you are doing or know exactly what you are talking about.
Frankly, if you are not qualified, call a service technician.
Install DIY tank-type gas water heater and avoid the whole headache
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-install-gas-water-heater.html
information was for a gas unit. ihave a elictrical unit. thanks the information would help some one with a gas unit.
Let's see, your original question said 'any help.' And you asked for a free answer. And wanted the free expert to go look up your model number at Bosch since you did not say gas or electric. And of course you did not say the brand either. And then complain that you got less than best answer. Let me say something. Your lax attention to detail tells me you should be wary of installing a tankless, which was the main point of the answer. Next time, post a clear and fully disclosed question, and then bring your checkbook and pay for interactive answer from fixya, so experts don't have to guess at your situation, and you get satisfaction of helping the economy.
Did you not notice the thanks in my reply? This was the first time I have tried anything like this sorry I forgot to mention the maker of the unit. and again thank you for your very valubale time.
