This valve protects against excessive water expansion only.
This water heater has separate and dedicated protection for
excessive heat.
If you use a discharge line, do not use a reducing coupling or
other restriction smaller than the outlet of the relief valve. Allow
complete drainage of both valve and line.
for rePlacemenT ParTs:
• DO NOT install anything less than a pressure relief valve
certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory
that maintains periodic inspection of product of listed
equipment or materials, as meeting requirements for Relief
Valves and Automatic Gas Shutoff Devices of Hot Water
Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22 CSA 4.4. Valve must have
maximum set pressure
not to exceed 100 psi.
• Install replacement valve into opening provided and
designated for this purpose on water heater.
• Installation must conform with local codes or in the
absence of local codes, Standard on Recreational
Vehicles, ANSI A119.2 or CAN/CSA-Z240RV.
WirinG insTrucTions
The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded
in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local
codes, with the national electrical code, ansi/nfPa 70
and/or the csa c22.1, canadian electrical code.
It is required that the unit be connected through a switch that is
connected directly to a 12V DC battery or to the filtered side of
an AC/DC converter. Avoid unfiltered “linear” voltage sources.
Use a minimum of 18 gauge wire, UL and CSA Listed. Refer
to the
Wiring Diagram
. Install a remote switch in a convenient
location. Position the wall plate with the letters up. Before
making the connections, turn the switch to the OFF position.
RED is 12V DC Positive power IN.
GREEN is 12V DC Ground.
BLUE is 12V DC Pos. Lockout Lamp Signal.

9. Place flue screen (from parts bag) over end of flue tube.
Place the access door on the lower flange pins aligning
the holes in the bottom of the door. Carefully close the top
edge of the door, being careful to align the flue opening
with the flue tube and screw in the fastener. Push (snap)
plastic bushing (supplied in parts bag) into the hole in the
door front.
10. The appliance must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of the system at
test pressures in excess of ½ psi. The appliance must be
isolated from the gas piping system during any pressure
testing at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psi.
Pressure inlet to valve, 13” W.C. maximum, 11” W.C.
minimum. Pressure at outlet of valve is factory set at
10” W.C.
