DANGER

General Information continued-

This water heater has been manufactured for operation at altitudes from sea

level to 2000 feet (610m) (unless otherwise specified on the water heater

rating plate). For use of this appliance at an elevation greater than 2000 feet

(610m), contact the dealer or manufacturer listed on the rating plate for

information on any necessary modification. Uncorrected operation of this

appliance may create a hazard to life and property.

Make sure that you check the rating plate and combination gas control on the

water heater to be certain that the type of gas being supplied corresponds

with the marking on the rating plate and combination gas control.

A sacrificial anode is used to extend tank life. The removal of this anode, for

any reason, will nullify the warranty. In areas where water is unusually active,

an odor may occur at the hot water faucet due to a reaction between the

sacrificial anode and the impurities in the water. If this should happen, an

alternative anode may be purchased from the supplier that installed this water

heater. This will minimize the odor while protecting the tank. Additionally, the

water heater should be flushed with appropriate dissolvers to eliminate any

bacteria.

IMPORTANT

Before proceeding, please inspect the water heater and components for

possible damage. DO NOT install any damaged components. If damage

is evident then please contact the supplier where the water heater was

purchased or the manufacturer listed on the rating plate for replacement

parts.

INSTALLATION

LOCATING THE WATER HEATER

This water heater MUST NOT be installed in any location where gasoline

or flammable vapors are likely to be present, unless the installation is

such to eliminate the probable ignition of gasoline or flammable vapors.

Water heaters in residential garages must be installed and located, or

protected, to avoid physical damage. For other installations refer to

local codes. In the absence of local codes, the water heater must be

installed in compliance with the National Fuel Gas Code, (ANSI Z223.1-

Latest Edition), or in Canada CAN/CGA B149.1 Natural Gas Installation

Code (Latest Edition) or CAN/CGA B149.2 Propane Installation Code

(Latest Edition).

The location of this water heater is of the utmost importance. Before installing

this water heater read the Installation section of these instructions. After

reading these Installation and Operating Instructions, select a location for the

water heater where the floor is level and is easily accessible to gas and water

supply lines. DO NOT locate the water heater where water lines could be

subjected to freezing temperatures. Make sure the cold water pipes are

not located directly above the gas control so that condensate during

humid weather does not drip on the controls.

This water heater MUST be installed indoors out of the wind and

weather.

To comply with NSF requirements this water heater is to be:

a) Sealed to the floor with sealant, in a smooth and easily cleanable

way, or

b) Installed with an optional leg kit that includes legs and/or extensions

that provide a minimum clearance of 6” beneath the water heater.

WARNING

Water heaters are heat producing appliances. To avoid damage or injury

there shall be no materials stored against the water heater or vent-air

intake system and proper care shall be taken to avoid unnecessary contact

(especially by children) with the water heater and vent-air intake

components. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL FLAMMABLE

MATERIALS, SUCH AS GASOLINE OR PAINT THINNER BE USED OR

STORED IN THE VICINITY OF THIS WATER HEATER, VENT-AIR

INTAKE SYSTEM OR IN ANY LOCATION FROM WHICH FUMES

COULD REACH THE WATER HEATER OR VENT-AIR INTAKE

SYSTEM.

Installation (Locating The Water Heater) continued-

Note: For California installation this water heater must be braced,

anchored, or strapped to avoid falling or moving during an earthquake.

See instructions for correct installation procedures. Instructions may be

obtained from California Office of the State Architect, 400 P Street,

Sacramento, CA 95814.

Water heater corrosion and component failure can be caused by the heating

and breakdown of airborne chemical vapors. Examples of some typical

compounds that are potentially corrosive are: spray can propellants, cleaning

solvents, refrigerator and air conditioning refrigerants, swimming pool

chemicals, calcium and sodium chloride, waxes and process chemicals.

These materials are corrosive at very low concentration levels with little or no

odor to reveal their presence. NOTE: DAMAGE TO THE WATER HEATER

CAUSED BY EXPOSURE TO CORROSIVE VAPORS IS NOT COVERED

BY THE WARRANTY. DO NOT OPERATE THE WATER HEATER IF

EXPOSURE HAS OR WILL OCCUR. DO NOT STORE ANY POTENTIALLY

CORROSIVE COMPOUNDS IN THE VICINITY OF THE WATER HEATER.

WARNING

Liquefied petroleum gases/propane gas are 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 neighbor’s telephone. Follow

the gas supplier’s instructions.

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

DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE UNTIL LEAKAGE IS CORRECTED!

Installation (Locating The Water Heater) continued-

Proper venting practices must be considered when selecting a location for this

water heater. For exact venting specifications, please consult the Venting

section of these Installation and Operating Instructions.

This water heater must be located in an area where leakage of the tank, water

line connections, or the combination temperature and pressure relief valve will

not result in damage to the area adjacent to the water heater or to lower floors

of the structure. When such locations cannot be avoided, a suitable drain pan

must be installed under the water heater. The drain pan must have a

minimum length and width of at least 4 in. (10.2 cm) greater than the diameter

of the water heater and must not restrict proper combustion air flow to the

water heater. The drain pan, as described above, can be purchased from

your plumbing professional. The drain pan must be piped to an adequate

drain. The piping must be at least 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) in diameter and pitched

for proper drainage.

It is recommended that a minimum clearance of four (4) inches (10.2 cm) be

provided on the side of the water heater for servicing and maintenance of the

combination temperature and pressure relief valve.

WARNING

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

neighbor’s telephone.

• Gas detectors are available. Contact your gas supplier or plumbing

professional for more information.

MINIMUM CLEARANCES

WARNING

Failure to adhere to these installation and operating instructions may

create a hazard to life and property and will nullify the warranty.

This installation shall allow access to the front of the water heater and

adequate clearance shall be provided for servicing and operating this water

heater. The water heater may be installed on either a combustible or non-

combustible floor. If the water heater is to be installed directly on carpeting, it

shall be installed on top of a metal or wood panel (or equivalent) extending

beyond the full width and depth of the appliance by at least three (3) inches

(7.6 cm) in any direction or, if the appliance is to be installed in an alcove or

closet, the entire floor shall be covered by the panel. If the rating plate or

the label on the front of the heater specifies minimum clearances less

than those listed in the below table, the water heater may be installed in

accordance with the minimum clearances listed on the rating plate or

the label on the front of the heater.

If it is necessary to install this water heater in an alcove, use the clearances

listed in Figure 1.

Figure 1

VENTING

This water heater has been shipped with a draft diverter for which it was

designed with reference to the horizontal and vertical planes. If removed, the

draft diverter must be replaced in the same position and secured to the jacket

top by the screws with which it was installed.

WARNING

The venting system must be installed properly following all local codes or in

the absence of local codes, the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code

(ANSI Z223.1- latest edition), or in Canada, The Natural Gas and Propane

Installation Code (B149.1-00 latest edition). Failure to properly install the

venting system could result in property damage, personal injury, or death.

WARNING

Carefully inspect the venting system of a replacement water heater

installation before connecting to the venting system. All joints in the vent

connector must be securely fastened with screws and fit tightly together.

Inspect the venting system for signs of deterioration (rust and perforation)

and replace any sections that are not in good condition.

The chimney must be lined and in good condition. Check to make sure the

venting system is properly sized for the water heater. If the venting system

was previously sized for another gas appliance that has been removed, the

venting system may now be too large. Refer to the latest edition of the

National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1-latest edition), or in Canada, the

Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code (B149.1-00 latest edition) for the

correct sizing of venting systems and common venting with another gas

appliance.

Do not vent this water heater into the venting system of another gas

appliance designed to vent under positive pressure.

The water heater should be installed as close as practical to the venting

system to minimize the vent connector length required. Refer to local codes

for the distance limitations on vent connector lengths.

At the completion of the water heater installation, the burner and venting

system must be checked for proper operation with all other commonly

vented appliances in operation. Check for spillage of flue products around

the outside relief opening of the drafthood after several minutes of

operation. The flame from a match should be drawn into the drafthood. Do

not use the water heater or connected equipment if spillage is detected until

the problem is corrected. Refer to the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas

Code, or in Canada, the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code for

complete details on the “Procedure to Be Followed to Place Equipment in

Operation”.
