SECTION III: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION

If building cold water supply has a back-flow preventer, check valve or water meter with check valve,

provisions for thermal expansion of water in the hot water system must be provided.

WARNING

Pressure relief valve discharge piping must be piped near ground or drain to eliminate potential of

severe burns. Insulate and use electrical heat tape around the discharge drain pipe in any area

where freezing could occur. Do not install any shut-off valves, plugs or caps to the temperature and

pressure relief valve or piping.

DANGER

Temperature setting should not exceed safe temperature at fixtures. See water temperature control

warning in the “Temperature Adjustment” section of this Installation and Operation Instruction

Manual. If higher preheat temperatures are necessary to obtain adequate booster output, add an

ASSE approved mixing valve for hot water supplied to fixtures.

WARNING

INSTALLATION OF THIS WATER HEATER REQUIRES ABILITY EQUIVALENT TO THAT OF A

LICENSED PLUMBER. Plumbing, air supply, venting, gas supply and electrical work are required.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LIGHT ANY GAS APPLIANCE IF YOU ARE NOT CERTAIN OF THE

FOLLOWING:

Liquefied petroleum gases/propane gas and natural gas have an odorant added by the gas

supplier that aids in detection of the gas.

Most people recognize this odor as a “sulfur” or “rotten egg” smell.

Other conditions, such as “odorant fade” can cause the odorant to diminish in intensity, or

“fade”, and not be as readily detectable.

If you have a diminished sense of smell, or are in any way unsure of the presence of gas,

immediately contact your gas supplier from a telephone in another building.

Gas detectors are available. Contact your gas supplier or plumbing professional for more

information.

Liquefied petroleum gases/propane gas is heavier than air and will remain at floor level if there is a

leak. Basements, crawl spaces, closets and areas below ground level will serve as pockets for

accumulation of leaking gas. Before lighting, smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure

to smell next to the floor.

IF YOU SMELL GAS:

Do not try to light any appliance.

Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any telephone in your building.

Immediately call your gas supplier from a telephone in another building. Follow the gas

supplier’s instructions.

If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE UNTIL THE LEAKAGE IS CORRECTED!
