WATER HEATER INSTALLATION
1. Remove the water heater from the box by grasping the
metal sides of the housing and lifting upward until it is free
of the box.
2. Partially insert the water heater into the opening and
connect both Hot and Cold water lines to the appropriate
½" NPT fittings. Connections can be made using PEX
swivel nut adaptors with NPT straight threads and a cone
seal. The PEX swivel nuts require only hand tightening.
CAUTION
PRODUCT DAMAGE!
●
Excessive torque will damage the Cold Water and Hot
Water Inlets. DO NOT over tighten.
●
Use two wrenches to tighten the LP Gas compression
fitting to avoid damaging the unit.
3. Connect the gas to the 3/8" LP Gas compression fitting on
the back of the Water Heater (Figure 2).
4. Use two wrenches to tighten the compression fitting to
avoid damaging the unit.
5. Use additional caulking if needed to complete a permanent
seal at the gas line connection.
A: Installation of Water Heater with
Separate Flange
NOTE: For installation of water heater with Integral Flange
proceed to section B:
1. Complete the “skin” application to the vehicle’s outer wall.
2. Position water heater housing into the frame opening with
the front edge aligned evenly to the exterior wall.
3. To prevent water and air leaks apply sufficient caulking
around the entire frame opening and the exterior edge of
the water heater housing. Use a suitable caulking material
that will result in a permanent seal between the water
heater and the vehicle’s frame.
4. Insert the door flange into the water heater housing and
press the flange firmly against the sidewall.
5. When ready to proceed, apply additional caulking or butyl
tape to the back of the door flange that will contact the RV
sidewall around perimeter of the opening.
6. To ensure proper installation and alignment of the door:
Align each hole along the inside frame of the flange with
the corresponding holes in the water heater housing and
secure to the frame using No. 8 ¾" flat head screws using
two screws per side.
7. Secure the flange to the vehicle using No. 8 ¾" flat head
screws through each hole along the perimeter. Verify that a
tight seal exists between the side wall and the flange. If not,
repeat above steps.
8. Remove any excess caulking and clean all surfaces.
B: Installation of Water Heater with
Integral Flange
1. Protect the side wall with masking tape or other suitable
means to insure that it is not damaged while installing the
water heater.
2. Position the water heater so that the front edge extends
from the opening approximately 2” and insert the door
flange into the housing.
3. Permanently attach the flange to the housing by aligning
holes and using stainless steel screws or stainless steel
rivets with recommended grip range of .188" to .129" and
with a hole-size of .129" to .133".
4. To prevent water leaks apply a good amount of caulking or
butyl tape on the sidewall and bottom of the opening that
will be covered by the flange.
5. Slide the water heater in place into the opening and press
the door flange against the sidewall.
6. Secure water heater housing unit to the vehicle using No.
8¾" flat head screws through each hole in the door flange.
