Installation Instructions

Choosing Installation Site
* Locate the appliance in an area where water leakage from the unit or connections will not result in
damage to the area adjacent to the appliance or to the lower floors of the structure. When such
locations cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a suitable drain pan, adequately drained, be
installed under the appliance. The pan must not restrict combustion air flow.
DANGER
Indoor
• This water heater is for outdoor installation only.
Never install it indoors.
Do not enclose the termination with corrugated
metal or other materials.
This will cause carbon monoxide
poisoning and a potential fire
hazard.
• Avoid places where fires are common, such as those where petrol,
benzene and adhesives are handled, or places in which corrosive gases
(ammonia, chlorine, sulfur, ethylene compounds, acids) are present.
May result in fire.
• Avoid installation in places where dust or debris will accumulate.
Dust may block the air-supply opening, causing the performance of the
device fan to drop and incomplete combustion to occur as a result.
• Avoid installation in places where special chemical agents
(e.g., hair spray or spray detergent) are used.
Ignition failures and malfunction may occur as a result.
• Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Hazard. Do not install this water heater in a
mobile home, recreation vehicle or on a boat.
