Does the machine have an over-pressure relief valve or backup/shutdown of any type?
A. The machine is designed so that a hose will slide off a tube and vent the machine if the pressure rises too high. The resulting volume of gas is insufficient to make a combustible mixture in rooms with even minimal venting. If the ER1200 continues to operate unattended, it will run out of water and have an internal meltdown. This will cause a short that will pop your fuse or circuit breaker and render the WaterTorch permanently inoperable. We call this operator error and it is not covered under warranty. The B version ER1200 WaterTorches have an internal float switch to prevent the electrolyzer from running out of water. The machine automatically shuts off if the water level is too low.
