Installation and Operation Instructions
Lx – WH Series
32
Strain on the gas valve and fittings may result in vibration, premature component failure
and leakage and may result in a fire, explosion, property damage, serious injury or death.
Flexible gas piping cannot be used within the water heater cabinet and cannot pass
through the cabinet wall, use rigid piping as shown in Figure 7-1. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in fire, property damage, serious injury or death.
Do not use an open flame to test for gas leaks. Failure to follow these instructions may
result in fire, property damage, serious injury or death.
When performing a pressure test on the gas line piping, be sure the water heater is
disconnected or isolated if the test pressure is expected to exceed 1/2 PSI (14” w.c.), as
damage to the valve could occur resulting in
fire, property damage, serious injury or
death.
