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. 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 vont system inopoctions, A DANGER A Vapors from flammable liquids will explode and catch fire causing death or severe burns 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 closed 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: anot be seen, 2. am heavier than air, 3. go a long way on the floor and 4. can be carried from other room; 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. Road and follow water heater warnings and instructions. If owners manual is missing, contact the retailer or manufacturer. 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 pots 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 bo safe. 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 � G 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. 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. 2 Temperature Time to Produce Serious Bum 120° F.

Water temperatures above 125'F. can cause severe burns or death from scalding. Be sure to read and follow the warnings outlined on the label pictured below. NOTE: Households with small children, disabled, or elderly persons may require a 120 or lower thermostat setting to prevent contact with "HOT" water. D DANGER Water temperature over 125 °F can cause severe burns instantly or death from scalds. Children, disabled and elderly are at highest risk of being scalded. See instruction manual before setting temperature at water heater. Feel water before bathing or showering. Temperature limiting valves are available, see manual. 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. 3 The following chart may be used as a guide in determining the proper water temperature for your home. TIME / TEMPERATURE RELATIONSHIPS IN SCALDS TVA miltsy d Srxr+en Run The temperature of the water in the heater can be regulated by setting the temperature dial on front of the thermostat.

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. A WARNING "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. A CAUTION 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.

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 proper combustion and ventilation, However, if the space is confined, Installation 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. WATER SUPPLY CONNECTIONS— Refer to Fig. 4 for suggested typical installation. The installation of unions or flexible copper connectors is recommended on the HOT and COLD water lines, so that the water heater may be easily disconnected for servicing .f necessary. The HOT and COLD water connections are clearly marked. Install a shut•off valve in the cold water line near water heater. Determine if there is a check valve in the cold water supply line. It may have been installed as a separate component or it may be part of a pressure reducing valve. water meter or water softener. A check valve located .n the cold water inlet :ire can cause a "closed" Introduction 5 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 for the openings MUST NOT be smaller than 114 Inch mesh to provent clogging by lint or other debris Provisions for combustion and ventilation air must comply with referenced codes and standards, SeriLocal Instattatlon Regulations Section, F. CORROSIVE ATMOSPHERES —The water heater should not be installed near an air supply containing halogenated hydrocarbons. For exampto,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.) water system. A closed system prevents the water, as it is being heated from expanding back into the cold water supply line. Pressure can build up within the heater causing the relief valve to operate during a heating cycle. This excessive operation can cause premature failure of the relief valve and possibly the heater itSeif. Replacing the relief valve will not correct the problem. A method of preventing pressure buildup is to install an expansion tank in the cold water supply line between the heater and the check valve. Contact your irstailirg contractor, water supplier. local plumbing inspector or plumbing supply house for assistarce• IMPORTANT!! Do not apply heat to the cold water supply fitting. if sweat connections are used, sweat tubing to adapter before fitting adapter to cold water inlet of heater. Any heat applied to the cold water inlet will permanently damage the dip tube. 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. 10 12 22 20 /21 1 1 18 13 Fig. 1. — Basle Gas Water Heater 18 19 17 14 16 WARNING Read and Review this entire Manual with special emphasis on the Venting Section (Pages 8.7) 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 bums or death to those in range, as well as property damage.

Draft Hood FXWARNING 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 fined 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, Pail 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 InstructiorvWaming 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 water heater, extending beyond its full width and depth at least 3 inches in Heat Trap 1 8' Min.

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 equal or exceed the BTUH input of the water heater as marked on its rating plate. Connect the outlet of the relief valve to a suitable open drain. 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 downward 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 coupling should be installed in the discharge line. 4, TO FILL WATER HEATER —Make certain drain valve is closed. Open shutoff 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. IA WARNING I Tank MUST be full of water before water heater is turned on. The water heater's warranty does not cover damage or failure resulting from operation with an empty or partially empty tank (dry fired). 5. GAS SUPPLY —The branch gas supply line to the water heater should be clean ! " black steel pipe or other approved gas piping material. A ground joint union or ANSI design certified semirigid or flexible gas appliance connector should be installed in gas line close to the water heater, and a manual gas shutoff valve should be installed in the gas line prior to the union. The manual gas shutoff valve should be at least 5 feet above the floor and readily accessible for turning on or off. A sediment trap should be installed at bottom of the gas line. (Refer 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 excessive 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 adjustment. the minimum inlet gas pressure (with main burner on) is shown on the water healer rating plate, If high or low gas pressures are present, contact your gas supplier for correction. [AWARNING yeanassmoommarazelka Do not attempt to convert this water heater for use with a different typo of gas other than the type shown on the rating plate. Such conversion could result in hazardous operating conditions. 6. 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 shutoff 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 alter the water heater is placed in operation, WARNING Never use open flame to test for gas leaks, as bodily Injury, property damage or death could result. 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 testing of that system at pressures in excess of psi (14" W.C.). The water heater must be isolated from the gas piping system by dosing 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 4 psi (14' W.C.). 7. 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 gas vent or chimney. The vest 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). L Horizontal vent connectors must be pitched upward to the chimney at • • feast X' per foot of length, Single wall vent connectors must be at least 6" from adjacent unprotected combustible surfaces. Joint of vent connectors should be securely fastened by sheet metal screws or other approved method. A DANGER Installation 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 causing 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 an adequate air supply for proper operation. Be sure to inspect the vent system for proper installation at initial startup; and at least annually thereafter. Refer to Maintenance section of this manual for more information regarding vent system inspections. The manufacturer's warranty does not cover any damage or defect caused by Installation, attachment or use of any type of energy saving or other unapproved devices (other than those authorized by the manufacturer) into onto or in conjunction with the water heater. The use of unauthorized energy saving devices may shorten the life of the water heater end may endanger ilk and property, The manufacturer disclaims any responsibility for such loss or Injury resulting from the use of such unauthorized devices, If local codes require external application of Insulation blanket kits, the Instructions included with the kit must be carefully followed. installation Check List A Water Neater Location O Close to area of vent. • Indoors and protected from freezing temperatures • Proper clearance from combustible surfaces observed and water heater not installed on carpeted floor, O Sufficient fresh air supply for proper operation of water heater.
