Wrap-around Filter Installation
Important:
A Wrap-around Filter has been included with the
water heater. For correct operation it is essential that this fil-
ter be installed properly. If you encounter difficulty installing
the filter or have a question, please call your qualified serv-
ice technician.
1.
Connect the connection points of one of the filter sec-
tions to the appropiate connection point of the other
section (see Figure 13) to form one long section.
2.
Wrap this section around the base of water heater and
join at the closest connection point to fit your water
heater. Insert the upper connection post into the match-
ing connection point (see Figure 14). Hold this connec-
tion in place against the heater. Slide it up enough to
pinch the lower connection post into the matching con-
nection point in place with your fingers (see Figure 15).
Note:
Depending on the size of your water heater, the filter
could have some excess material. This may be carefully
trimmed away.
3.
Once connected slide filter down and ensure a close fit
between the water heater, the filter and the floor (or
Drain Pan if installed) (see Figure 16).
4.
It is recommended that the filter be inspected periodi-
cally to maintain unrestricted airflow to the heater.
