A digital type is strongly recommended. This device is used to measure electrical values. 

The meter must have the capability to measure volts AC, volts DC, amps, micro-amps, and ohms. 

 

Thermometer:

  Used to measure water temperature. An accurate thermometer is recommended. 

 

Water Pressure Gauge:

 Used to measure water supply pressure, and to determine tank pressure by 

adapting to the drain valve of the heater. 

 

Jumper Leads:

  A length of wire (12 in. minimum) with an alligator clip at both ends. 

 

Various Hand Tools:

  Pipe wrench, channel locks, open end wrench set, 12 in. crescent wrench, Allen 

wrench set, Torx bit set, screwdrivers (common & Phillips), long reach (12 in.) magnetic tip Phillips 

head screw driver #2 tip, 1/4 in. nut driver, pliers (common & needle nose), socket set including a 1-

Features

 

Features of the Honeywell Integrated Control System 

x

  Water heater digital display on control board for setting and displaying the temperature setpoint.  

Pressing temperature UP and DOWN buttons changes the temperature setpoint.  Temperature 

format may be displayed in °F or °C. 

x

  Single control board with plug-in wiring controls temperature, ignition, and blower operation. 

x

  Plug-in wiring reduces chance of miswiring. 

x

  Burner ignition with direct spark ignition - A high voltage spark jumps from the spark rod to the 

burner surface to ignite the gas.   

x

  Water heater digital display will show diagnostic codes in the event the water heater needs servicing.  

Aids in diagnosing and servicing the water heater. 

x

  Water heater digital display can show previous error code history to further aid in servicing the water
