Unpacking the AQ-125-BO heater

This heater is packed securely. 

Before installing the unit, be certain you have the
correct heater for your type of Gas - Propane or
Natural  Gas.

  Identification  labels  are  found  on  the

shipping box, and on the rating plate which is located on
the right side panel of the cover.
The box includes:
• Pressure relief valve
• Heat shield
• Mounting screws
• Product registration card

• Installation manual.

Do not lose this manual, there is a charge for a
replacement

.

Please  complete  and  return  the  enclosed  product
registration card.

The AQ125 BO is not approved or designed for:

• Manufactured (mobile) homes, RV's or boats
• Heating or other recirculating/pumping applications*
• Solar/preheat  backup  or  high  temperature  booster

use

* This includes domestic hot water circulator pump loop
systems that may previously exist in a home hot water
system. The use of a small electric mini-tank (4-6 gallon
size)  should  be  used  for  this  application;  when
designed so the pump will circulate the hot water in the
mini-tank  only  and  through  the  building's  hot  water
return loop (timed or thermostatic controlled operation
of the pump is commonly done). The AQ125 BO should
be  plumbed  in  line  before  the  mini-tank  water  heater,
contact CEC if further instruction is needed.

2.4

General rules to follow for safe 

operation

B

1.

  You  should  follow  these  instructions  when  you

install  your  heater.  In  the  United  States:  The
installation must conform with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
In  Canada:  The  Installation  should  conform  with
CGA  B149.(1,2)  INSTALLATION  CODES  and  /or
local installation codes.

B

2. 

Carefully plan where you install the heater. Proper

clearances must be followed.

B

3. 

The  appliance  must  be  isolated  from  the  gas

supply piping system by closing its individual manual
gas  shutoff  valve  (not  supplied  with  heater)  during

any pressure testing at pressures in excess of ½ Psig
(3.5 kPa).
The appliance and its gas connection must be leak
tested before placing the appliance in operation.

B

4. 

Keep  water  heater  area  clear  and  free  from

combustibles  and  flammable  liquids.  Do  not  locate
the heater over any material which might burn.

B

5. Correct gas pressure 

is critical for the optimum

operation of this heater. Gas piping must be sized to
provide the required pressure at the maximum output
of the heater, while all the other gas appliances are in
operation.  Check  with  your  local  gas  supplier,  and
see the section on connecting the gas supply.

B

6. 

Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to

shut  off,  turn  off  the  gas  supply  at  the  manual  gas
shut  off  valve,  on  the  gas  line.  Note:  manual  gas
shutoff valve is not supplied with the heater.

B

7. 

Do  not  use  this  appliance  if  any  part  has  been

underwater.  Immediately  call  a  qualified  service
technician  to  inspect  the  appliance  and  to  replace
any part of the control system and any gas control
which has been underwater.
