   Installation and Operation Manual

Water connection reversal is illustrated in Figures 

8 and 9. Proceed as follows: 
1.  For an existing installation, drain the heater by 

removing the two (2) drain plugs on the inlet/

outlet header and the drain plug on the return 

header. 

2.  Remove the heater front panel (door).
3.  Remove the I/O header side cover plates, top and 

bottom. See Figure 10.

4.  Remove the return header side cover plates, top 

and bottom. See Figure 10.

5.  Tag and disconnect the black high limit wire 

leading to the pressure switch (PS) and the black 

wire on the Fireman's switch terminal which 

leads to the high limit switch. 

6.  Remove the water temperature sensor nut from 

the inlet/outlet header and remove the sensor.

7.  Tag and disconnect the black and white wires 

from the water pressure switch. 

 Caution

In order to prevent property damage or injury, en-

sure that the wiring is handled and routed carefully 

so as not to cause any damage to it. Additionally, be 

careful not to create any kinks in the water pressure 

switch copper tubing when handling the header.

8.  For an existing installation, remove the coupling 

nuts from the header and disconnect the water 

supply from the heater.

9.  Remove the 10 bolts and washers from the inlet/

outlet header and remove the header from the 

tube assembly. 

10.  Remove the 10 bolts and washers from the return 

header and remove the header from the tube 

assembly. 

11.  For an existing installation, remove the tube 

gaskets and clean the header's mating surface of 

any corrosion or debris. Replace the tube gaskets 

with new ones. Do not use any metal tools on the 

header surface. Scratches may compromise the 

seal integrity.

 WarninG

To avoid product failure which can cause property 

damage, serious personal injury or death, install the 

inlet/outlet header with the high limit devices on the 

bottom.
