Per the Uniform Building Code and /or Uniform Mechanical Code, every permit issued by the Building Official under the provisions of this code shall expire by limitation and become null and void if the building or work authorized by such permit Is not commenced within 180 days from the date of such permit, or if the building or work authorized by such permit is suspended or abandoned at any time after the work is commenced for a period of 180 days. Based on the above, you are hereby advised to: This inspection is intended to determine if substantial work has been accomplished since issuance of the permit or last inspection; or if the project should be considered abandoned. If such determination is made, the Building Code does allow the Building Official to approve a one -time extension on to 180 days. Extension requests must be in writing and provide satisfactory reasons why circumstances beyond the applicants control have prevented action from being taken. In the event you do not call for the above inspection or request and receive an extension prior to April 7, 2003, your permit will become null and void and any further work on the project will require a new permit and associated fees.

A General Safety Precautions Be sure to read and understand the entire Use & Care Manual before attempting to install or operate this water heater. Pay particular attention to the following General Safety Precautions. Failure to follow these warnings could result in a fire or explosion, causing property damage, bod- ily injury or death . Should you have any problems understanding the instructions in this manual, STOP, and get help from a qualified installer or service technician or the gas supplier. A WARNING Gasoline, as well as other flammable materials and liquids (adhesives, solvents, etc.), and the vapors they produce, are extremely dangerous. DO NOT handle, use or store gasoline or other flammable or combustible materials anywhere near or in the vicinity of a water heater. Be sure to read and follow the warning label pictured below and other labels on the water heater, as well as the warnings printed in this manual. Failure to do so can result in property damage, bodily injury, or death. A DANGER Failure to install the draft hood and properly vent the water heater to the outdoors as outlined in the Venting Section of this manual can result in unsafe operation of the water heater. To avoid the risk of fire, explosion, or asphyxiation from carbon monoxide, never operate this water heater unless it is properly vented and has an adequate air supply for proper operation. Be sure to inspect the vent system for proper installation at initial start-up; and at least annually thereafter. Refer to Maintenance section of this manual for more information regarding vent system p his A DANGER A Vapors from flammable liquids will explode and catch fire causing death or severe bums Do not use or store flammable products such as gasoline, solvents or adhesives in the same room or area near the water heater. Keep flammable products: 1. far away from heater, 2. In approved containers, 3. tightly cloud and 4. out of children's reach. Installation: Do not Install water heater where flammable products will be stored or used unless the main burner and pilot flames Water heater has a main burner and pilot flame. The pilot flame: 1. is on all the time and 2. will Ignite flammable vapors. Vapors: 1. cannot be seen, 2. are heavier than air, 3. go a long way on the floor and 4. can be carried from other rooms to the pilot flame by air currents. are at least 18" above the floor. This will reduce, but not eliminate, the risk of vapors being ignited by the main burner or pilot flame. Read and follow water heater warnings and instructions. If owners manual Is missing, contact the retailer or manufacturer. 2 A DANGER LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM MODELS — Propane, or LP gas, must be used with great caution. • It is heavier than air and will collect first in lower areas making it hard to detect at nose level. • Make sure to look and smell for LP leaks before attempting to light appliance. Use a soapy solution to check all gas fittings and connections. Bubbling at a connection indicates a leak that must be corrected. When smelling to detect an LP leak, be sure to sniff near the floor too. • Gas detectors are recommended in LP applications and their installation should be in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations and/or local laws, rules, regulations or customs. • It is recommended that more than one method be used to detect leaks in LP applications. IF LP GAS IS PRESENT OR SUSPECTED: • DO NOT attempt to find the cause yourself; • DO NOT try to light any appliance; • DO NOT touch any electrical switch; • DO NOT use any phone in your building. • Leave the house immediately and make sure your family and pets leave also. • Leave the doors open for ventilation and contact the gas supplier, a qualified service agency or the fire department. • Keep the area clear until the service call has been made, the leak is corrected, and a qualified agency has determined the area to be safe. A WARNING Both LP and natural gas have an odorant added to help detection. Some people may not physically be able to smell or recognize this odorant. If unsure or unfamiliar about the smell associated with LP or natural gas, ask the gas supplier. Other conditions, such as "Odorant Fade ", which causes the odorant to "fade ", or diminish in intensity can also hide or camouflage a gas leak. A DANGER Water heaters utilizing Liquefied Petroleum gas (LP) are different from natural gas models. A natural gas heater will not function safely on LP gas and vice versa. No attempt should ever be made to convert a heater from natural gas to LP gas. To avoid possible equipment damage, personal injury or fire: DO NOT connect this water heater to a fuel type not in accordance with unit data plate. Propane for propane units. Natural gas for natural gas units. These units are not certified for any other type fuel. A WARNING LP appliances should not be installed below -grade (for example, in a basement) if such installation is prohibited by federal, state and/or local laws, rules, regulations or customs. z z a c Q t J U O 0 U) O w J w • 0 2 u. 0) d � w Z = I- 0 Z LLJ w 0 to 0 l W H- u_ O z_ 0 I z • Temperature Time to Produce Serious Bum 120° F More than 5 minutes 125° F 1 to 2 minutes 130° F About 30 seconds 135° F About 10 Seconds 140° F Less than 5 seconds 145° F Less than 3 seconds 150° F About 11/2 seconds 155° F About 1 second A General Safety Precautions WATER TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT - Safety and energy conservation are factors to be considered when selecting the water temperature setting of water heater's thermostat.

COMPONENTS OF YOUR WATER HEATER — So that you may better understand the operation of your new water heater, the following section illustrates the basic components of a typical water heater. 22 20/21 11 A WARNING Fig. 1. — Basic Gas Water Heater 19 15 18 Introduction Read and Review this entire Manual with special emphasis on the Venting Section (Pages 6 - 7) and Operation Section (Pages 8 - 10) prior to any installation work The location chosen for the water heater must take into consideration the following: LOCAL INSTALLATION REGULATIONS This water heater must be installed in accordance with these instructions, local codes, utility company requirements, and/or in the absence of local codes, the latest edition of the American National Standard I National Fuel Gas Code. A copy can be purchased from either American Gas Association, 1515 Wilson Blvd, Arlington, VA 22209 as booklet Z223.1 or National Fire Prevention Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269 as booklet NFPA No.54. LOCATION A. A gas fired water heater should not be installed in a space where liquids which give off flammable vapors are to be used or stored. Such liquids include gasoline, LP gas (butane and propane), paint or adhesives and their thinners, solvents or removers. Because of natural air movement in a room or other enclosed space, flammable vapors can be carried some distance from where their liquids are being used or stored. The open flame of the water heater's pilot light or main burner can ignite these vapors causing an explosion or fire which may result in severe burns or death to those in range, as well as property damage. For these reasons installation of a gas fired water heater in a garage is not desirable. 4 Fig. 2. — Thermostat and Burner A WARNING 1. Thermostatic Gas Valve 2. Gas Cock Knob 3. Red Button 4.

Draft Hood If a location in a garage is the only alternative, the gas water heater should be installed so that the open flame of the pilot and main burner are no less than 18 inches above the garage floor, unless specifically exempted from this by local code, rule, regulation or custom. Raising the gas fired water heater will reduce but not eliminate the possibility of lighting the vapor of any flammable liquids which may be improperly stored or accidentally spilled. The water heater must be located or protected so it is not subject to physical damage, for example, by moving vehicles, area flooding etc. Stand Kits to raise the water heater the required 18" above the floor are available from the distributor or store where the water heater was purchased. Request "Stand Kit, Part Number AS29061". B. The water heater should be installed as close as practical to the gas vent or chimney. Long hot water lines should be insulated to conserve water and energy. The water heater and water lines should be protected from exposure to freezing temperatures. DO NOT install the water heater in bathrooms, bedrooms, any occupied rooms normally kept closed, or in outdoor unprotected areas. C. Minimum clearance from combustible construction is 1 inch sides and rear; 3 inches from front of control; 12 inches top. If clearances stated on Instruction/Warning label, located on front of heater, differ from the aforementioned clearances, install heater according to the clearances stated on the Instruction/Warning label. The water heater may be installed on combustible floors, but not directly on carpeting. If the water heater must be installed on carpeting, place a metal or wood panel beneath A WARNING A CAUTION A— Diameter of water heater pbs 7 mkt. B — Maximum 7.

If the water heater is installed in an alcove or closet, the entire floor must be covered by the panel. A minimum of 24 inches clearance from the front and top should be available for adequate inspection and servicing. proper combustion and ventilation. However, if the space is confined, provisions for this air must be made. A confined space is one having a volume of less than 50 cubic feet per 1000 BTUH of the aggregate input of all appliances within that space. The air must be supplied through two permanent openings of equal area, one of which is to be located within 12 inches above the floor and the other is to be located within 12 inches below the ceiling. The minimum net free area of each opening must be not less than one square inch per 1000 BTUH of the total input rating of all the appliances in the enclosure (but not less than 100 square inches), if each opening communicates with other unconfined areas inside the building. Buildings of unusually tight construction shall have the combustion and ventilation air supplied from outdoors or a freely ventilated attic or crawl space. If air is supplied from outdoors, directly or through vertical ducts, there must be two openings located as specified above and each must have a minimum net free area of not less than one square inch per 4000 BTUH of the total input rating of all the appliances in the enclosure. If horizontal ducts are used to communicate with the outdoors, however, each opening must have a minimum net free area of not less than one square inch per 2000 BTUH of the total input rating of all the appliances in the enclosure. If ducts are used, the minimum dimension of rectangular air ducts shall be not less than 3 inches. NOTE: If the openings are to be covered with a protective screen or grill, the net free area of the covering material must be used in determining the size of the openings, as stated above. Protective screening t ° - for the openings MUST NOT be smaller than 1/4 inch mesh to prevent clogging by lint or other debris. Provisions for combustion and ventilation air must comply with referenced codes and standards. See Local Installation Regulations Section. F. CORROSIVE ATMOSPHERES —The water heater should not be " installed near an air supply containing halogenated hydrocarbons. For example,the air in beauty shops, drycleaning establishments, photo processing labs, and storage areas for liquid and powdered bleaches or swimpool chemicals often contain such hydrocarbons. The air there maybe safe to breathe, but when it passes through a gas flame, corrosive elements are released that will shorten the life of any gas burning appliance. Propellants from common spray cans or gas leaks from refrigeration equipment are highly corrosive after passing through a flame. The limited warranty is voided when failure of water heater is due to a corrosive atmosphere. (Reference is made to the limited warranty for complete terms and conditions.) Installation "Combustible construction" refers to adjacent walls and ceilings, and should not be confused with combustible or flammable products and materials. Combustible and /or flammable products and materials should never be stored in the vicinity of this or any gas appliance. The water heater should not be located in an area where leakage of the tank or connections will result in damage to the area adjacent to it or to lower floors of the structure. When such areas cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a suitable catch pan, adequately drained, be installed under the water heater. The pan MUST NOT restrict combustion air flow to bottom of water heater. To open drain, line should be at least r ID and pitched for proper drainage. Figure 3. -- Auxiliary Catch Pan NOTE: Auxiliary catch pan Installation MUST conform to local codes. Catch Pan Kits are available in 16 ", 19 ", 22 ", 24 ", and 26T diameters from the distributor or store where the water heater was purchased. E. COMBUSTION & VENTILATION AIR — Proper operation of the water heater requires air for combustion and ventilation. If the water heater is installed in an unconfined space within a building of conventional frame, masonry or metal construction, infiltration air is normally adequate for 1. INSPECT SHIPMENT— Inspect water heater for possible shipping damage. Check the marking of the rating plate of the water heater to be certain the type of gas being furnished corresponds to that for which the water heater is equipped. 2. THERMAL EXPANSION — Determine if a check valve exists In the Inlet water line. It may have been installed in the cold water line as a separate back flow preventer, or it may be part of a pres- sure reducing valve, water meter or water softener. A check valve located in the cold water inlet line can cause what is referred to as a "closed water system ". A cold water inlet line with no check valve or back flow prevention device is referred to as an "open" water system. As water is heated, it expands in volume and creates an increase in the pressure within the water system. This action is referred to as "thermal expansion ". In an "open" water system, expanding water which exceeds the capacity of the water heater flows back into the city main where the pressure is easily dissipated. 5 A "closed water system ", however, prevents the expanding water from flowing back into the main supply line, and the result of "thermal expansion" can create a rapid, and dangerous pres- sure increase in the water heater and system piping. This rapid pressure increase can quickly reach the safety setting of the re- lief valve, causing it to operate during each heating cycle. Ther- mal expansion, and the resulting rapid, and repeated expansion and contraction of components in the water heater and piping system can cause premature failure of the relief valve, and pos- sibly the heater itself .Replacing the relief valve will not correct the problem! The suggested method of controlling thermal expansion is to install an expansion tank in the cold water line between the water heater and the check valve. (Refer to Figure 4.) The expansion tank is de- signed with an air cushion built in that compresses as the system pressure increases, thereby relieving the over pressure condition and eliminating the repeated operation of the relief vale.

Contact your installing contractor, water supplier, or plumbing inspector for addi- tional information regarding this subject. 3. WATER SUPPLY CONNECTIONS — Refer to Fig. 4 for sug- gested typical installation. The installation of unions or flexible copper connectors is recommended on the hot and cold water connections so that the water heater may be easily disconnect- ed for servicing if necessary. The HOT and COLD water con- nections are clearly marked and are 3/4" NPT on all models. In- stall a shut -off valve in the cold water line near the water heater. IMPORTANT!! Do not apply heat to the hot or cold water con- nections. If sweat connections are used, sweat tubing to adapter before fitting adapter to hot or cold water connec- tions on heater. Any heat applied to the hot or cold water supply fittings will permanently damage them. 4. RELIEF VALVE — A new combination temperature and pressure relief valve, complying with the Standard for Relief Valves and Automatic Gas Shutoff Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22, must be installed in the opening provided and marked for the purpose on the water heater. (Refer to Fig. 4.) No valve of any type should be installed between the relief valve and the tank. Local codes shall govern the installation of relief valves. The pressure rating of the relief valve must not exceed 150 PSI, the maximum working pressure of the water heater as marked on the rating plate. The BTUH Rating of the relief valve must not be less than the input rating of the water heater as indicated on the rating label located on front of the heater (1 watt = 3.412 BTUH). Connect the outlet of the relief valve to a suitable open drain so Installation 6 that the discharge water cannot contact live electrical parts and to eliminate potential water damage. Piping used should be of a type approved for hot water distribution. The discharge line must be no smaller than the outlet of the valve and must pitch down- ward from the valve to allow complete drainage (by gravity) of the relief valve and discharge line. The end of the discharge line should not be threaded or concealed and should be protected from freezing. No valve of any type, restriction or reducer cou- pling should be installed in the discharge line. 5. TO FILL WATER HEATER — Make certain drain valve is com- pletely closed. Open shut -off valve in cold water supply line. Open each hot water faucet slowly to allow air to vent from the water heater and piping. A steady flow of water from the hot water faucet(s) indicates a full water heater. A WARNING Tank MUST BE full of water before power is turned on. The water heater's warranty does not cover damage or failure resulting from operation with an empty or partially empty tank. (Reference is made to the limited warranty for complete terms and conditions.) 6. GAS SUPPLY - The branch gas supply line to the water heater should be clean 1 /2" black steel pipe or other approved gas piping ma- terial. A ground joint union or ANSI design certified semirigid or flexible gas appliance connector should be installed in gas line closes to the water heater, and a manual gas shut -off valve should be installed in the gas line prior to the union. The manual gas shut -off valve should be at least 5 feet above the floor and read- ily accessible for turning on or off. A sediment trap should be in- stalled at the bottom of the gas line. (Ref. to Fig. 4) Compound used on threaded joints of the gas piping must be of the type resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum gas. Use compound sparingly on male threads only. Do not use exces- sive force (over 31.5 Ft. Lbs.) in tightening the pipe joint at the thermostat inlet, particularly if teflon pipe compound is used, as the valve body may be damaged. The inlet gas pressure to the water heater must not exceed 14 "w.c. for Natural or L.P. gas. For purposes of input adjust- ment, the minimum inlet gas pressure (with main burner on) is shown on the water heater rating plate. If high or low gas pres- sures are present, contact your gas supplier for correction. A WARNING Do not attempt to convert this water heater for use with a different type of gas other than the type shown on the rat- ing plate. Such conversion could result in hazardous operating conditions. 7. LEAK TESTING - The water heater and its gas connections must be leak tested at normal operating pressures before it is placed in operation. Turn on the manual gas shut -off valve near the water heater (Refer to Fig, 4). Use a soapy water solution to test for leaks at all connections and fittings. Bubbles indicate a gas leak that must be corrected. The factory connections to the thermostat should also be leak tested after the water heater is placed in operation. A WARNING Never use open flame to test for gas leaks, as bodily in- jury, property, damage or death could result. Installation PRESSURE TESTING THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM - The water heater and its manual gas shut -off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any high pressure test- ing of that system at pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (14" W.C.). The water heater must be isolated from the gas piping system by closing the manual gas shut -off valve (Refer to Fig. 4), during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping at pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (14" W.C.). 8. VENTING - This water heater must be installed with the factory supplied draft hood in place. (Refer to Fig.4.) Vent connectors must be attached to the draft hood outlet to connect the water heater to the gasvent or chimney. The vent connectors must be the same size (diameter) as the draft hood outlet or larger, never smaller. For proper venting in certain installations a larger vent connector size may be needed. Consult Vent Tables in Appendix "G" of the latest version of the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI booklet Z223.1 or NFPA booklet 54.) Horizontal vent connectors must be pitched upward to the chim- ney at least 1/4" per foot of length. Single wall vent connectors must be at least 6" from adjacent unprotected combustible sur- faces. Joint of vent connectors should be securely fastened by sheet metal screws or other approved method. A DANGER Failure to install the draft hood and properly vent the water heater to the outdoors as outlined above can result in unsafe operation of the water heater casing bodily injury, explosion, fire or death. To avoid the risk of fire, explosion, or asphyxiation from carbon monoxide, NEVER operate this water heater unless it is properly vented and has as adequate air supply for proper operation. Be sure to inspect the vent system for proper installation at ini- tial start -up; and at least annually thereafter. Refer to Mainte- nance section of this manual for more information regarding vent system inspections.

Do Not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids, such as adhesives or paint thinner, in vicinity of this or any other appliance. If such flammables must be used, open doors and windows for ventilation, and all gas burning appliances in vicinity should be shut off, including their pilot lights, to avoid vapors igniting. NOTE: Flammable vapors may be drawn by air currents from surrounding areas to the water heater. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS E. Do not allow combustible materials such as newspaper, rags or mops to accumulate near water heater. F. If there is any difficulty in understanding or following the OPERATION or MAINTENANCE instructions, it is recommended that a qualified person or serviceman perform the work. A CAUTION Hydrogen gas can be produced in a hot water system served by this water heater that has not been used for a long period of time (generally two weeks or more). HYDROGEN GAS IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE!! To dissipate such gas and to reduce risk of injury, it is recommended that the hot water faucet be opened for several minutes at the kitchen sink before using any electrical appliance connected to the hot water system. If hydrogen is present, there will probably be an unusual sound such as air escaping through the pipe as the water begins to flow. Do not smoke or use an open flame near the faucet at the time it is open. 2 WATER TEMPERATURE SETTING— The temperature of the water in the heater can be regulated by setting the temperature dial on front of the thermostat. (Refer to Fig. 5.) To comply with safety regulations the thermostat was set at its lowest setting before water heater was shipped from the factory. A setting of 120 °F., or lower if local codes require, is recommended as a starting point. 130 °F. (Approx.) 140 °F. (Approx.) 150 °F. (Approx.) 160°F. (Approx.) Figure 5 — Thermostatic Gas Valve. The wide reference mark near "Warm" on rim of temperature dial, represents an approximate water temperature of 120 °F. The long wide reference mark, to the left, represents an approximate water temperature of 130 °F. Each reference mark above or below these points indicates an approximate change of 10 °F. Safety and energy conservation are factors to be considered when selecting the water temperature setting of water heater's thermostat. The lower the setting the greater the safety and savings in energy and operating cost. Gas Cock Knob 120 °F. (Approx.) 110 °F. (Approx.) 100 °F. (Approx.) 90 °F. (Approx.) 80°F. (Approx.) 70°F.

NOTE: Households with small children or invalids may require a 120 °F. or lower thermostat setting to prevent contact with "HOT" water. Maximum water temperatures occur just after burner has shut off. To find hot water temperature being delivered, turn on a hot water faucet and place a thermometer in the hot water stream and read the thermometer. Mixing valves for reducing point ofg water temperature by mixing hot and cold water in branch water lines are available. Contact a licensed plumber or the local plumbing authority for further information, 3. ADJUSTMENTS— There are no user adjustments (other than water temperature selection) required on this water heater. The thermostatic valve is equipped for total regulation of the main burner and pilot gas pressures. The burner does not require adjustment. Operation HIGH ALTITUDE—. Ratings of gas appliances are based on sea level operation and need not be changed for installations at ele- vations up to 2,000 feet. For installations above 2,000 feet, the input must be reduced per the National Fuel Gas Code for each 1,000 feet above sea level. Contact the local gas supplier for more information. 4. SAFETY CONTROLS— The thermostat is constructed with a built in safety shutoff device designed to shut off the gas supply to the burner in the event the pilot flame Is extinguished for any reason. The thermostat is also equipped with single use gas shut -off device that will shut off the gas supply to the burner, if the water in the water heater exceeds normal operating temperatures. Refer to the Troubleshooting Section of this manual, or contact your dealer for service. 5. EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN— A WARNING Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the appliance. If water heater has been subjected to fire, flood, or physical damage turn off the manual gas control (shut -off) valve, and do not operate the water heater again until it has been checked by qualified personnel. NOTE: Replace any part of the gas control system which has been under water. 6. CONDENSATION— Condensation can form on the tank when it is first filled with cold water. The condensation might also occur with a heavy water draw and very cold inlet water. Drops of water falling on the burner can produce a sizzling or pinging sound, and water may also be seen beneath the water heater. This condition is not unusual, and will disappear after the water in the water heater becomes heated. If, however, the condition is continuous, examine the piping and fittings for possible leaks. 7. VACATION AND LONG TIME SHUT-DOWN— If the water heater is to remain idle for an extended period of time, the gas should be turned off to conserve energy. The water heater and piping should be drained if they might be subjected to freezing temperatures. Maintenance Properly maintained, your water heater will provide years of dependable trouble free service. It is suggested that a regular routine maintenance program be established and followed by the user. It is further recommended that a periodic inspection of the thermostat, burner, relief valve, internal flueway and venting system should be made by service personnel qualified in gas appliance repair. 1. ROUTINE PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE A. The water heater's internal flue must be inspected annually to be certain it is clean by removing the draft hood and flue baffle. (Refer to Fig. 1.) When reinstalling the flue baffle make certain it is hung securely by its hanger at the top of the flue way. Remove any scale that may have fallen on the burner or floor shield. Reinstall the draft hood. Inspect gas venting system to make certain vent connector from draft hood to chimney is properly positioned and securely attached and inspect chimney. 10 NOTE: Refer to Hydrogen Gas Caution, In Safety Precautions Section on page 9. After a very long shut -down period, the water heater's operation and controls should be checked by qualified service personnel. Make certain the water heater is filled before again placing it in operation. 8. DRAINING WATER HEATER— A CAUTION Shut off gas at thermostat gas cock or supply line manual shut-off valve before draining water from the water heater. In order to drain water, turn off cold water supply, then it is necessary to open a hot water faucet or lift the handle on the relief valve to admit air to the tank. Attach a garden hose to the drain valve on the water heater and direct the stream of water to a drain where it will do no damage. A DANGER The water drained from the tank may be hot enough to present a SCALD HAZARD and should be directed to a suitable drain to prevent injury or damage. 9. ANODE— This water heater is equipped with an anode rod designed to prolong the life of the glass lined tank. Refer to Fig. 4 for location. The anode rod is slowly consumed cathodically, thereby eliminating or minimizing corrosion of the glass lined tank. Water sometimes contains a high sulfate and/or mineral content and together with the cathodic protection process can produce a hydrogen sulfide or rotten egg odor in the heated water. Chlorination of the water supply should minimize the problem. NOTE: Do not remove the anode -rod from the water heater's tank, except for Inspection and/or replacement, as permanent removal will shorten the life of the glass lined tank and effect the water heater warranty. Replace any corroded through vent connector and remove any obstruction in vent connector or chimney. B. Visually inspect the burner annually while firing and pilot burner flame with main burner off. (Refer to Figure 6 for normal flame pattern.) If any unusual burner operation is noted, the water heater should be shut off until qualified service assistance can be obtained. For cleaning, remove the burner from the water heater. A vacuum cleaner can be used on the burner and floor shield inside the water heater. The burner can also be cleaned by scrubbing with mild detergent C. The area near the water heater must be kept free of flammable liquids such as gasoline or paint thinners, adhesives and other combustible materials. i Maintenance NOTE: If the temperature and pressure relief valve on the water heater discharges periodically, this may be due to thermal expansion in a "Closed" water system. Contact the water supplier or your plumbing contractor on how to correct this. DO NOT plug the relief valve outlet. Figure 6. — Main Burner and Pilot Flame Pattern A CAUTION For your safety, cleaning of main burner should be performed ONLY by qualified service personnel, as it involves disconnection of gas piping and leak testing. D. For adequate combustion (proper burner operation) and ventilation, make certain the flow of air to the water heater is not obstructed. E. At least once a year, lift and release the lever handle on the temperature pressure relief valve, located near the top of the water heater, to make certain the valve operates freely and allow several gallons to flush through discharge line. Make certain the discharged water is directed to an open drain. A DANGER Before manually operating the relief valve, make certain no one will be exposed to the danger of coming in contact with the hot water released by this valve. The water may be hot enough to create a SCALD hazard. The water released should be directed to a suitable drain to prevent injury or damage. 1. Should you have any questions about your new water heater, or if it requires adjustment, repair, or routine maintenance, it is suggested that you first contact your installer, plumbing contractor or previously agreed upon service agency. In the event that the firm has moved, or is unavailable, refer to the telephone directory commercial listings or local utility for qualified service assistance. 2. Should your problem not be solved to your complete satisfaction, you should then contact the Manufacturer's National Service Department at the following address: 2600 Gunter Park Drive Montgomery, Alabama 36109 -1413 Phone: 1-800.432.8373. 11 F. A water heater's tank can act as a settling basin for solids suspended in the water. It is, therefore, not uncommon for hard water deposits to accumulate in the bottom of the tank. Deposits should not be allowed to accumulate as this can affect the service life of the water heater. It is suggested that a few quarts of water be drained from the water heater's tank every month. If sufficient hard water deposits accumulate, a rumbling or pounding sound can occur. There is no danger involved and the efficiency of the water heater is not seriously affected, but the noise can be annoying. Your plumbing contractor should be contacted to clean the tank of these deposits. G. Rapid closing of faucets or solenoid valves in automatic water using appliances can cause a pounding "water hammer" sound. "Water hammer" can be described as a banging noise heard in a water pipe following an abrupt alteration of the flow with resulting pressure surges. Strategically located risers in the water pipe system can be used to minimize the problem. Also water hammer arresting devices are usually available from your plumber or local plumbing supply store. 2. ANODE ROD INSPECTION —The anode rod should be removed from the water heater's tank annually for inspection and replaced when more than 6" of core wire is exposed at either end of the rod. Refer to Fig. 4 for anode rod location. Make certain cold water supply is turned off before removing anode rod. How to Obtain Service Assistance When contacting the manufacturer, the following information should be made available: 1. Model and serial numbers of the water heater as shown on the rating plate attached to the jacket of the heater. 2. Address where water heater is located and can be seen. 3.

Do not enclose it in an airtight room or "seal" it behind solid doors. To minimize the possibil- ity of serious personal injury, fire, damage to your furnace, or improper operation, carefully follow these safety rules: • Keep the area around your furnace free of combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids and vapors. 5 • Do not cover the furnace, store trash or debris near it, or in any way block the flow of fresh air to the unit. • Combustion air must be clean and uncontaminated with chlorine or fluo- 3 4 5 6 7 rine. These compounds are present in many products around the home, such as water softener salts, laundry bleaches, detergents, adhesives, paints, varnishes, paint strippers, waxes, and plastics. Make sure the combustion air for your furnace does not contain any of these compounds. During remodeling be sure the combustion air is fresh and uncontaminated. If air with vapors of these compounds is burned in your furnace, the heat exchangers and metal vent system may deteriorate. • A furnace installed in an attic or other insulated space must be kept free and clear of insulating material. Examine the furnace area when in- stalling the furnace or adding more insulation. Some materials may be combustible. NOTE: Do not use this furnace if any part has been under water. Immedi- ately call a qualified service technician to inspect the furnace and to replace any part of the control system, electri- cal components and any gas control which has been under water. NOTE: The qualified installer or agency must use only factory- authorized replacement parts, kits, and accessories when servicing this product. 3 r This furnace contains safety devices which must be manually reset. If the furnace is left unattended for an ex- tended period of time, have it checked periodically for proper oper- ation. This precaution will prevent problems associated with no heat, such as frozen water pipes, etc. See "Before You Request a Service Call" section in this manual. SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS Installing and servicing heating equipment can be hazardous due to gas and electrical components.Only trained and qualified personnel should install, repair, or service heating equipment. Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance functions such as cleaning and replacing air filters. All other operations must be per- formed by trained service personnel. Observe safety precautions in this manual, on tags and labels attached to the furnace, and other safety pre- cautions that may apply. Recognize safety information. This is the safety-alert symbol ©. When you see this symbol on the furnace and in instructions or manuals, be alert to the potential for personal injury. Understand the signal words DAN- GER, WARNING, and CAUTION. These words are used with the safety- alert symbol. DANGER identifies the most serious hazards which will result in severe personal injury or death. WARNING signifies hazards which could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used to identify unsafe practices which would result in minor personal injury or product and property damage. STARTING YOUR FURNACE Instead of a continuously burning pilot flame, your furnace uses an automatic hot surface ignition system to light the burners each time the thermostat turns your furnace on. Follow these important safeguards: • Never attempt to manually light the burners with a match or other source of flame. 6 • Read and follow the operating instructions on the furnace, especially the item that reads as follows: "Wait 5 minutes to clear out any gas. Then smell for gas, including near the floor. If you smell gas, STOP! Follow "B" in the above safety infor- mation on this label. If you don't smell gas, go to the next step." A WARNING Should overheating occur or the gas valves fail to shut off the gas supply, turn off the manual gas valve to the fur- nace BEFORE turning off the electrical supply. (See Fig. 8.) A failure to follow this warning could result in a fire or explo- sion, and personal injury or death. • If a suspected malfunction occurs with your gas control system, such as the burners do not light when they should, refer to the shutdown proce- dures on the furnace or see "Shutting Down your Furnace" section in this manual, then call your dealer as soon as possible. • Check Air Filter: Before attempt- ing to start your furnace, be sure the furnace filter is clean and in place. (See the maintenance section of this manual.) Then proceed as follows: CCM STEPS FOR STARTING YOUR FURNACE 1. Set your room thermostat to the lowest temperature setting. (See Fig. 7.) 2. Close the external manual gas valve. (See Fig. 8.) 3. Turn off electrical supply to the furnace. (See Fig. 9.) 4 7 8 9 0 4� 0 _1==.=7 o 0 0 000 _ ■ -' L 4. Remove the furnace access door(s). a. Downflow /Horizontal —Re- move blower door after re- moving 2 screws first, then remove the control door. (See Fig. 10.) b. Upflow — Remove control door. (See Fig. 11.) 5. The gas valve will have EITHER a control knob or control switch to turn off and on. Turn the control knob or switch on the gas valve to the OFF position and wait 5 minutes. (See Fig. 12 or 13.) 6. After waiting 5 minutes, turn the control knob or switch on the gas valve to the ON position. (See Fig. 14 or 15.) 7. Replace the access door(s). See Fig. 16 for upflow and Fig. 17 for downflow. Replace control door first on downflow furnaces. Replace blower door and secure with 2 screws. 8. Turn on electrical supply to the furnace. (See Fig. 18.) 9. Open the external manual gas valve. (See Fig. 19.) 10. Set the room thermostat to a tem- perature slightly above the room temperature. This will automati- cally signal the furnace to start. The inducer motor will start, and the hot surface ignitor will ener- gize. When hot, the ignitor will have an orange glow. 10 11 W QQ 2 J UO Q w W O 2 co d 1— W z � � z � W W U � O ci W W H� O W Z U O Z 11. After 15 to 70 sec, the gas valve permits gas to flow to the main burners where it is ignited. Hot flames begin to warm the furnace's heat exchanger. After a time delay of approximately 45 sec, the furnace blower is switched on. 12 13 14 15 OR OR 5 / C 1 UI °o ° f= ° o 0 1 16 17 18 19 NOTE: If the main burners fail to ignite, the furnace control system will go through 3 more ignition cycles. If burners still fail to ignite, the system will lockout. (Under some circum- stances the furnace may reset from lockout and attempt to ignite if a call for heat still exists.) If lockout occurs or the blower does not come on, refer to the shutdown procedures on the furnace or sec "Shutting Down Your Furnace" section in this manual, and call your dealer for service. 12. Set your thermostat to the tern-per- ature that satisfies your com -fort requirements. SUGGESTION: Setting the ther- mostat back a few degrees and compensating for the difference with warmer clothing can make a big difference in your fuel con- sumption. The few degrees at the top of your thermostat "comfort level" are the most costly degrees to obtain. When the room temperature drops below the temperature selected on the thermostat, the furnace will switch on automatically. When the room temper- ature reaches the setting selected on the thermostat, the furnace will auto- matically switch off. Some thermostats have a "FAN" switch with 2 selections, AUTO and ON. When thermostat is set to AUTO, the furnace blower cycles on and off, controlled by the thermostat. In ON position, the furnace blower runs continuously except for a 77 -sec delay at the "call for heat." This keeps the temperature level in your home more evenly balanced. It also continuously filters the indoor air. When FAN switch is moved from ON to AUTO, the furnace blower will continue running for 90 sec before stopping. SHUTTING DOWN YOUR FURNACE Should you ever suspect a malfunction in your furnace, you will need to turn the furnace off. The following proce- dures must be followed: 1. Set your room thermostat to the lowest temperature setting. (See Fig. 20.) 2. Close the manual gas valve that is located outside of the furnace cab- inet. (See Fig. 8.) 3. Turn off electrical power to your furnace. (See Fig. 21.) 4. Remove the control access door on your furnace. (See Fig. 10 or 11.) On upflow furnaces, removing the blower access door is not required. 5. Turn the control knob or electric switch on the gas valve to the OFF position. (See Fig. 22 or 23.) 6. Replace the control access door. (See Fig. 16 or 17.) 7. If the furnace is being shut down because of a malfunction, call your dealer as soon as possible. 1 ' ' ► u 1 CCM 6 20 21 22 23 OR PERFORMING ROUTINE MAINTENANCE With proper maintenance and care, your furnace will operate econom- ically and dependably. Basic maintenance, which can easily be accomplished by someone who follows the directions, is found on this and the following pages. However, before beginning maintenance, follow these safety precautions: A WARNING Turn off electrical power sup- ply to your furnace before re- moving the access doors to service or perform mainte- nance. A failure to follow this warning could result in per- sonal injury or death. , CAUTION Although special care has been taken to minimize sharp edges, be extremely careful when handling parts or reach- ing into the furnace. FILTERING OUT TROUBLE A dirty filter will cause excessive stress on the furnace blower motor and can cause it to overheat and auto- matically shut down. The furnace filter should be checked every 3 or 4 weeks and cleaned if necessary. If installed with factory specified dis- posable media filter, check or replace filter before each heating and cooling season. Replace disposable media filter at least once a year. * Iii rl O i C to the shutdown procedures on the furnace or sec "Shutting Down Your Furnace" section in this manual, and call your dealer for service. 12.

FILTERING OUT TROUBLE A dirty filter will cause excessive stress on the furnace blower motor and can cause it to overheat and auto- matically shut down. The furnace filter should be checked every 3 or 4 weeks and cleaned if necessary. If installed with factory specified dis- posable media filter, check or replace filter before each heating and cooling season. Replace disposable media filter at least once a year. If your furnace filter needs replacing, be sure to use the same size and type of filter that was originally supplied. Use the Furnace Filter Table and match your furnace size with the proper filter size. , CAUTION Never operate your furnace without a filter in place. Doing so may damage the furnace blower motor. An accumula- tion of dust and lint on internal parts of your furnace can cause a loss of efficiency. The air filter for upflow furnaces is nor- mally located in the blower compart- ment (See Fig. 2) or in the factory- supplier filter cabinet attached to the side or bottom of the blower cabinet. Filters for the downflow furnaces are normally located in the return-air ple- num above the blower. If air filter has been installed in another location, con- tact your dealer for instructions. To in- spect, clean, and/or replace the air filter(s), follow these steps: • UPFLOW FURNACES ONLY - 1. Turn off electrical supply to fur- nace. (See Fig. 21) 2. Remove door /access panel • AIR FILTER(S) LOCATED IN BLOWER COMPARTMENT Remove control and blower access doors.

Wear safety glasses, gloves, and appropri- ate protective clothing. Failure to follow this caution could re- sult in personal injury. COMBUSTION AREA AND VENT SYSTEM Inspect the combustion area and vent system before each heating season. An accumulation of dirt, soot, or rust can mean a loss of efficiency and improper performance. Buildups on too the main burners can cause faulty fir- ing. This "delayed ignition" is charac- terized by an alarmingly loud sound. If your furnace makes a loud noise when the main burners are ignited, shut down the furnace and call your servicing dealer. Use your flashlight and follow these steps for inspecting the combustion area and vent system of your furnace: 1. Turn off the electrical supply to furnace and remove the access doors. (See Fig. 9, and 10 or 11.) 2. Carefully inspect the gas burner for dirt, rust, or scale. (See Fig. 29.) Inspect the relief box, flue connection area, and the vent pipe for rust. NOTE: If dirt, rust, soot, or scale accu- mulations are found, call your servic- ing dealer. DO NOT OPERATE THE FURNACE. 3. Inspect the vent pipe for a sag, holes, or a disconnection. A hori- zontal vent pipe must slope upward. If rusty joints or seams, or signs of water leakages are found, call your dealer for service. 8 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 A WARNING If holes are found or if the vent pipe is obstructed or is not connected, toxic fumes can es- cape into your home. DO NOT OPERATE YOUR FURNACE. Call your dealer for service. A failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death. 4. Replace the access doors and restore electrical supply to the furnace. Be sure bottom door flange is inside of the furnace cas- ing. (See Fig. 16 and 17.) 5. Start the furnace and observe its operation. If possible, watch the burner flames. Are they burning bright blue? If not or if you sus- pect some other malfunction, call your servicing dealer. BEFORE YOU REQUEST A "SERVICE CALL" BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE, CHECK FOR SEVERAL EASILY SOLVED PROBLEMS: • Check for sufficient airflow. Check the air filter for dirt. Check for blocked return-air or supply -air grilles. Be sure they are open and unobstructed. If this isn't the cause of the problem, call your servicing dealer. If your furnace isn't operating at all, check the following list for easily solved problems: • Is your thermostat set above room temperature? Is the switch in the HEAT position? • Is the electrical power supply switch on? Is the blower acccss door finely in place? Are any fuses blown? (There is a fuse on the furnace control.) Has a cir- cuit brcakcr tripped? • Is the manual shutoff valve in the gas supply pipe leading to the furnace open? Does the lever point in the same direction that the pipe runs (open)? Or is it at a right angle to the pipe (closed)? NOTE: Before proceeding with the next checks, turn off the electrical power supply to the furnace. Remove access doors. • Is the control knob or switch on the gas valve turned to the ON position? If this or the preceding check shows an interruption in the gas supply, make sure the gas has not been shut off for safety reasons. If nothing else seems to be wrong, follow the startup procedures found on pages 4 and 5 of this booklet. • If for some reason the vent is blocked, the draft safeguard switch will shut off the furnace. Reset the switch by pushing the button located on top of the switch. See page 2 or 3 for switch location. If the switch trips a second time, turn off the furnace and call for service. • DOWNFLOW HORIZONTAL ONLY —Check the manual reset auxil- iary limit switch located on the blower housing. If the blower motor fails, this switch will shut off the furnace. Reset it by pushing the button on the switch. If it trips again, turn off the furnace and call for service. • Check the manual reset flame roll- out switch(es) located near the burn- ers. If the furnace has experienced a high - temperature condition due to inadequate combustion air, these switches will shut off the furnace. Reset the switch(es) by pushing the button on the switch. If the switch trips a second time, turn off the furnace and call for service. • If your furnace still fails to operate, call your servicing dealer for trouble- shooting and repairs. Tell your dealer the model and serial numbers for your furnace. (You should have them recorded on page 12 of this booklet.) By knowing exactly which furnace you have, the dealer may be able to offer suggestions over the phone or save 9 valuable time through knowledgeable preparation for the service call. • Your furnace control board has an LED fault code light that indicates the furnace status. The LED will flash short and long flashes. Look through the sight glass on the furnace door and determine the code (number of short and long flashes). Give the code and furnace model number to your dealer when you call. By knowing exactly which furnace you have and the LED code being displayed, your dealer can save valuable time through knowledgeable preparation for the ser- vice call. REGULAR DEALER MAINTENANCE In addition to the type of routine maintenance you might be willing to do, your furnace should be inspected regularly by a properly trained service technician. A semiannual inspection (or annual inspection, at least) should include the following: 1. Inspection of all flue product passages including the burners, heat exchanger, relief box, and vent pipe. 2. Inspection of all combustion and ventilation air passages and openings. 3. Close check of all gas pipes lead- ing to and inside of your furnace. 4. Inspection, cleaning, and lubrica- tion (when required) of the blower motor and wheel. NOTE: Refer to the unit Service Procedures for blower motor oiling information. When required, the motor must be oiled by a qualified service technician. 5. Routine inspection and cleaning/ replacement of the air filter. 6. Inspection of all supply- and return -air ducts for obstructions, air leaks, and insulation. Any problems found should be resolved at this time. 7. Inspect the return-air duct con - nection(s) at the furnace to ensure it is physically sound, sealed to the furnace casing, and terminates outside the space con- taining the furnace. 8. Inspection of furnace installation for proper support and any ob- vious deterioration of the furnace. The support must be sound and without sags, gaps, cracks, etc., around the furnace base so as to provide an air seal between the support and furnace. 9. A check for loose connections attaching individual components. Inspection of all electrical wiring and their connections. 10. Operational check of the furnace itself to determine working con- dition. Repair or adjustment should be made at this time. 10 Ask your servicing dealer for further details about an economical service contract that covers seasonal inspections.
