Manometer

Combustion Gas Analyzer

4.2

Introduction

Please follow these instructions. Failure to follow 
instructions may result in:

▶ Damage or injury.
▶ Improper operation.
▶ Loss of warranty.

4.3

Proper location for installing your heater

Carefully select the location of the water heater. For your safety 
and for proper heater operation, you must not block or obstruct 
combustion air to the heater.
Follow the guidelines below:

1. Locate the heater where gas and plumbing connections are 

feasible and convenient.

2. The hot water lines should be kept short and insulated to 

save energy. It is recommended to locate the water heater 
as close as practical to the most frequently used hot water 
fixtures.

3. In areas where outside temperatures is below 32 °F (0 °C) 

water pipes should be properly insulated, to maintain 
water temperature and prevent freezing.

DANGER: 

▶ The water heater must be installed by a 

qualified installer in accordance with 
these instructions. If improperly 
installed, a hazardous condition such as 
explosion or carbon monoxide 
poisoning could result. Bosch 
Thermotechnology Corp. is not 
responsible for improperly installed 
appliances.

Common installation practice is to first 
determine the installation location, then 
design the piping layout.

NOTICE: 

Risk of appliance freezing!

▶ The water in this water heater is cold and 

always remains cold except for the times 
the burner is on. In the event of power 
outage in conjunction with freezing 
temperatures, the heater should be 
drained.
See chapter 9.2, page 30 “Winterizing” 
for draining instructions.

WARNING: 

▶ Flammable materials, gasoline, 

pressurized containers, or any other 
items or articles that are potential fire 
hazards must NOT be placed on or 
adjacent to the heater. The appliance 
area must be kept free of all combustible 
materials, gasoline and other flammable 
vapors and liquids.
