GAS SUPPLY
WARNING:
Do not attempt to convert this water heater for use with a different type of gas other than
the type shown on the rating plate. Such conversion could result in hazardous operating conditions. Please
have a professional connect the gas pipe.
The supplied Manual Gas Appliance Shut Off Valve must be installed at the gas connection of the water heater
at the time of installation.
The branch gas supply line to the water heater should ben clean black steel pipe or other approved gas piping
material.
A ground joint union or ANSI design certified semi-rigid or flexible gas appliance connector should be installe-
din the gas line close to the water heater.
The National Fuel Gas Code (NFGC) mandates a manual gas shut-off valve: See (NFGC) for complete instruc-
tions.
A sediment trap should be installed at the bottom of the gas line.
The inlet gas pressure to the water heater must not exceed 10.5“ w.c. for natural or 14” w.c. for propane gas.
For purposes of input adjustment, the minimum inlet gas pressure (with main burner on) is shown on the water
heater rating plate. If high or low gas pressures are present, contact your gas supplier for correction.
The water heater and its indivdual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ PSI (3.5 kPa). The water heater must
be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pres-
sure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ PSI (3.5 kPa).
DO NOT use excessive force (over 31.5 ft lbs.) in tightening the pipe, particularly if pipe compound is used, as
the unit may be damaged.
Compound used on the threaded joints of the gas piping must be of the type resistant to the action of
propane gas. Use compound sparingly and use on male threads only.
