Part 1 - General Safety Information
This water heater is approved for indoor installations only and is not
intended for use as a pool heater. Clearance to combustible materials:
0” top, bottom, sides, and back. Heater must have room for service:
24” front, 3” left and right sides, 9” top, 12” bottom, and 0” back are
minimum recommended service clearances. (A combustible door
or removable panel is acceptable front clearance. A 3” minimum
clearance must be provided from the appliance front cover to the
removable panel or combustible door.) This water heater has been
approved for closet installation and installation on combustible
flooring. Do not install directly on carpeting. Install the water heater
in a location where temperature and pressure relief valve discharge
or a leak will not result in damage to the surrounding area. If such a
location is not available, install an auxiliary catch pan. The appliance
is rated Category IV (pressurized vent, likely to form condensate in
the vent) and requires a special vent system designed for pressurized
venting. Use only Category IV vent systems.
Installer -
Read all instructions in this manual before installing.
Perform steps in the given order.
User -
This manual is for use only by a qualified installer / service
technician. Have this water heater serviced / inspected annually
by a qualified installer / service technician.
FAILURE TO ADHERE TO THE GUIDELINES ON THIS PAGE
CAN RESULT IN SUBSTANTIAL PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE
PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.
NOTE:
Obey all local codes. Obtain all applicable permits before
installing the water heater.
NOTE:
Install all system components and piping in such a manner
that does not reduce the performance of any fire rated assembly.
A. Operation and Installation Warnings
To avoid serious injury or death, read, understand, and follow all of
the precautions listed here.
Vapors from flammable liquids will explode and can cause a
fire, resulting in personal injury or death. The water heater has a
burner that can come on at any time and ignite vapors. DO NOT
use or store flammable liquids around the water heater.
Improper venting can cause a build-up of carbon monoxide.
Breathing carbon monoxide can result in brain damage or death.
DO NOT operate the water heater unless it is properly vented to
the outside and has an adequate fresh air supply for safe operation.
Inspect the exterior exhaust gas outlet port and fresh air inlet port
on a regular basis to ensure they are functioning properly.
A concentration of carbon monoxide as small as .04% (400 parts
per million) in the air can be fatal. When making high fire or low
fire adjustments, CO levels must be monitored using a flue gas
analyzer such that a CO level of no more than 150 ppm is exceeded
at any time during operation.
Adjusting the “low fire offset” or the “main flow restrictor” in small
increments can result in a significant increase in CO concentration.
To avoid serious injury or death, DO NOT make any adjustments to
the gas valve without monitoring the exhaust gases with a fully
functional and calibrated flue gas analyzer.
DO NOT allow children to operate this unit. DO NOT use this unit if
it does not appear to be operating correctly. A qualified technician
should service and inspect the water heater annually.
This water heater must be installed by a licensed plumber, licensed
gas fitter, and/or qualified installer / service technician. Improper
installation and/or operation can cause a potentially hazardous
situation, which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or
death, and will void the warranty.
The manufacturer cannot anticipate every circumstance that might
involve a potential hazard. Each installation has its own specialized
characteristics, requirements, and possible hazards. Therefore, all
possible incidents are not included in these warnings. Proper and
safe installation, operation, and service are the responsibility of the
qualified installer / service technician.
Proper care of the water heater is the user’s responsibility. Ensure the
user carefully reads and understands the User’s Information Manual
before operating and maintaining the water heater.
Make sure the user knows the location of the gas shut-off valve
and how to operate it. Immediately close the gas shut-off valve if
the water heater is subjected to fire, overheating, flood, physical
damage, or any other damaging condition that might affect the
operation of the unit. Have the water heater checked by a qualified
technician before resuming operation.
Do not power up the unit unless the gas and water supply valves
are fully opened. Make sure the fresh air intake port and exhaust gas
port are open and functional.
No one but a qualified installer / service technician should attempt
to install, service, or repair this water heater. There are no serviceable
parts which can be changed by the user / owner. User / Owner:
Contact the original qualified installer / service technician if the
water heater needs repair or maintenance. If the original technician
is unavailable, ask your gas supplier for a list of qualified service
providers.
Keep the area around the water heater clean and free of all materials
that can burn. DO NOT store or place gasoline, oils, spray paint, or
other flammable products near the water heater.
DO NOT use spray paint, hair spray, or any other flammable spray
near the water heater or near the exterior fresh air intake port. DO
NOT place any items in or around the exterior exhaust gas outlet
port and/or fresh air inlet port that could restrict or block the flow in
or out of the vent system.
DO NOT store or place newspapers, laundry, or other combustible
items near the water heater or the exterior exhaust gas outlet and/
or fresh air inlet port.
After installation, all water heater safety devices should be tested.
This water heater is certified for indoor installations only. The water
heater consists of gas ignition system components which must be
protected from water (dripping, spraying, etc.) during operation and
service. Carefully consider installation location and the placement
of critical components (circulators, condensate neutralizers, etc.)
before installing the water heater.
The water heater temperature is factory set to 125
o
F (51.7
o
C).
To avoid scalding, always check the temperature of the hot water
before bathing, showering, washing, etc. DO NOT adjust the water
temperature while the water heater is being used by other persons.
The owner should inspect the system monthly for damage, water
stains, signs of rust, corrosion, and exhaust vent and air intake
blockage. If inspection of the unit shows signs of damage, the water
heater should be shut off until the problem is repaired by a qualified
technician.
