Installation and service of this water heater requires ability equivalent to that of a Qualified Agency (as defined
by ANSI below) in the field involved. Installation skills such as plumbing, air supply, venting, gas supply and
electrical supply are required in addition to electrical testing skills when performing service.
ANSI Z223.1 2006 Sec. 3.3.83: “Qualified Agency” - “Any individual, firm, corporation or company that either
in person or through a representative is engaged in and is responsible for (a) the installation, testing or
replacement of gas piping or (b) the connection, installation, testing, repair or servicing of appliances and
equipment; that is experienced in such work; that is familiar with all precautions required; and that has

having jurisdiction to perform a given task do not attempt to perform any of the procedures described in this
service handbook. If you do not understand the instructions given in this service handbook do not attempt to
perform any procedures outlined in this service handbook.
SERVICE REMINDER
When performing any troubleshooting step outlined in this service handbook always consider the wiring
and connectors between components. Perform a close visual inspection of all wiring and connectors to and
from a given component before replacement. Ensure wires were stripped before being crimped in a wire
connector, ensure wires are crimped tightly in their connectors, ensure connection pins in sockets and plugs
are not damaged or worn, ensure plugs and sockets are mating properly and providing good contact.
