This installation, operation and instruction manual will explain in detail the installation 
and maintenance of your new Programmable Flammable Vapor Ignition Resistant Gas 
Water Heater.  We strongly recommend that you contact a plumbing professional for 
the installation of this water heater. 

 

We require that you carefully read this manual, as well as the enclosed warranty, and 
refer to it when questions arise.  If you have any specific questions concerning your 
warranty, please consult the plumbing professional from whom your water heater was

Special Flammable Vapor Ignition Resistant System: 

 

This water heater is equipped with a Flammable Vapor Ignition Resistant System. In 
the event of improper usage or storage of gasoline or other flammable materials in the 
location where the water heater is installed, the technology will resist ignition of the 
flammable vapors outside the confines of the water heater. 

 

The Flammable Vapor Ignition Resistant System Features: 

 

Advanced Flame Arrestor Design 

 

Re-settable Thermal Switch to prevent burner/pilot operation with restricted 
airflow 

 

Flammable Vapor Sensor 

 

Automatic Ignition Device 

 

Sight Window to observe operation of pilot and burner 

 

FOR YOUR SAFETY:

 Activation of the Flammable Vapor Ignition Resistant System 

occurs when flammable vapors are drawn into the water heater and are combusted.  If 
flammable vapors are detected: 

 

Do not try to light any appliance. 

 

Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building. 

 

Leave the premises and immediately call the fire department from a 
neighbor’s phone.  Follow the fire department’s instructions. 

 

Once the flammable vapor has been evacuated, contact your plumbing professional or 
the manufacturer for further instructions.  Replacement of a Flammable Vapor Ignition 
Resistant System equipped water heater due to a flammable vapor shutdown is not 
covered under the terms of the limited warranty.
