SECTION IX:  OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

 

 WARNING 

Water heaters are heat-producing appliances. To avoid damage or injury there must be no materials 
stored against the water heater or direct vent system, and proper care must be taken to avoid 
unnecessary contact (especially by children) with the water heater and direct vent system. 

UNDER NO 

CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, SUCH AS GASOLINE OR PAINT THINNER 
BE USED OR STORED IN THE VICINITY OF THIS WATER HEATER OR IN ANY LOCATION FROM 
WHICH FUMES COULD REACH THE WATER HEATER.

 

Installation or service of this water heater requires ability equivalent to that of a licensed tradesman in the 
field involved. Plumbing, air supply, venting, gas supply, and electrical work are required. 

Light the unit in accordance with the operating instructions label attached to the water heater. 

Under 

NO

 circumstances should the input rate exceed the input rate shown on the water heater rating 

plate. Over-firing could result in damage or sooting of the water heater. 
If the unit is exposed to the following, 

DO NOT

 operate water heater until all corrective steps have been 

made by a factory authorized independent service contractor or qualified service professional.  

1.  Flooding to or above the level of the burner or controls       2. External firing 

     3. External firing                                                                        4. Damage 
     5. Firing without water                                                               6. Sooting 

NEVER OPERATE THE WATER HEATER WITHOUT FIRST BEING CERTAIN IT IS FILLED WITH 
WATER AND THAT A TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE IS INSTALLED IN THE 
RELIEF VALVE OPENING OF THE WATER HEATER. 

 

General Instructions 

 

To Fill the Water Heater 

1.  Close the water heater drain valve. This water heater 

utilizes a ball valve; when closing the valve, the stem 
will spin indefinitely. Confirm it is closed by ensuring 
the slot on the stem is perpendicular to the valve 
body. If alternative water connections are provided 
but not used, make certain they are plugged (i.e. 
space heating & alternate top connections). 

2.  Open the cold water supply shut-off valve. 

3.  Open several hot water faucets to allow air to escape from the system. 

4.  When a steady stream of water flows from the faucets, the water heater is filled. Close the faucets and 

check for water leaks at the water heater drain valve, combination temperature and pressure relief valve 
and the hot and cold water connections. 

 

Sequence of Operation 

1.  Thermostat starts with heating cycle. 

2.  Blower turns ON. 

3.  Blower pre-purge at reduced speed. 

4.  Spark rod sparks to the burner and gas valve opens, then the burner ignites. 

5.  Flame signal confirmed with main burner ON. 

6.  Blower remains at reduced speed for a short period to stabilize flame. 

7.  Blower modulates depending on heater demand. 

8.  Thermostat becomes satisfied. 

9.  Gas valve closes, then the main burner turns OFF. 

10. Blower post purges, then turns OFF.
