Thermostat Wiring
- A hole is provided for
the Thermostat wire(s). Route the wire through the
hole and connect the wire to the water heater accord-
ing to the instructions in the Use and Care Manual.
Final Assembly and Inspection
- Follow the
Use and Care Manual for complete details about the water
heater. Check all water and gas connections for leaks.
Seal all openings around pipes and wires with an outdoor
grade silicone sealant. Seal the joint between the recess box
and the siding or brick of the house with a silicone based seal-
ant to prevent water from getting behind the box into the wall.
Installing the Door
- Lift the door up from the bot-
tom at a slight angle. Slip the door into the channel at the
top of the recess box. Next push the bottom of the door
flush with the recess box and slide down into the channel
at the bottom of the enclosure. Do not block any air open-
ings on the door.
Security Clip
- Before installing the door, slide the
clip into the slot at the bottom of the door from the back-
side so it points straight down through the bottom of the
door. Lift the door into place per the instruction above. As
the door is being slid down into place, guide the security
clip into the slot in the bottom channel of the recess box.
Once the clip is in place, secure with a suitable means
(small padlock, security tag, etc.).
