Storage and transit
Anytime the RV is not intended to be used, it is considered to be in storage or transit. To
prepare the water heater, follow the below steps:
1. Turn off gas supply.
2. Turn off water heater main switch.
3. Drain water out of the system and water heater by removing the filter cover and drain
plug. If freezing conditions could occur, then winterize according to "Winterizing Water
Heater" (Refer to above opration).
For next season using
●
Thoroughly flush the water heater and system with clean drinking water through the hot
and cold side before using. Drain water several times out of the water heater drain plug.
Sanitize the water system per the recommendations of your coach manufacturer.
Routine inspection
Routine inspection is critical for maintaining proper operation of your appliance.
Unless specified, review the following items yearly or before each season:
1. Inspect the gas system, water system and installation every two years, or
otherwise specified by your RV coach manufacturer, by a qualified person.
2. Inspect for cracks, separation, peeling of seals to the RV wall. Remove and
re-seal as necessary (caulking or tape) between the side wall and the door of
the water heater and ensure that the unit is solidly mounted to the vehicle.
3. Before actively using your vehicle, pre-inspect that the air intake openings
(louvers) are completely open and clear of any debris including mud, leaves,
twigs, insects, etc... Remove all obstructions to allow full air flow.
4. Before actively using the vehicle, open the door and verify that no debris or
extraneous combustible materials are present anywhere (especially in the area
of the burner and the gas controls). Remove any item present and wipe clean
the bottom of the housing.
5. Before actively using the vehicle, verify that the exhaust tube and screen are
completely clear of obstructions including: mud, leaves, twigs, insects, nest,
etc. Clean by gently breaking up and using a vacuum to clear it. Use only water
and apply gently from a spray bottle, Never spray directly with high pressure
water. Run the appliance to dry any moisture and blow out loose debris. The
use of any aftermarket protective screen is prohibited and will void the
warranty.
6. Inspect the interior surface of the housing for any cracks or corroded areas that
could allow penetration of gases into or out of the interior of the vehicle. Check
especially around the hot water, cold water, gas and electrical connections.
