Maintenance of Water Heater
y
WARNING: If the user of the appliance fails to maintain it in the condition in which it
was shipped from the factory or if the appliance is not used solely for its intended
purpose or if appliance is not maintained in accordance with the instructions in the
manual, then the risk of a fire and/or the production of carbon monoxide exists which
can cause personal injury, property damage or loss of life.

WARNING: For your safety, all repairs should be performed by your dealer or a
qualified service person.
1. Main Burner: Do not allow the burner to burn with a
yellow flame, because sooting will occur. (See Safety
Warnings) If the burner flame is yellow and has an erratic
pattern, shut unit down and contact a qualified service
agency. Do not continue operating unit with improper
burner flame. (See Fig. 6-4)
2. Periodically inspect unit for soot. If soot is present
anywhere on water heater, immediately shut unit down
and contact your dealer or a qualified service person.
Soot is a sign of incomplete combustion and must be
corrected before operating water heater. Areas to check
would include:
a. Check for an obstruction in burner or flue box.
b. Check the screen in the door to see that no foreign material has accumulated to prevent
flow of combustion and ventilating air.
c. Check to be sure there is no flame present at burner orifice or burner whenever main gas
valve is closed. This can be checked by turning the OFF/ON switch to the “OFF”
position.
3. Frequent checks should be made of the grommet on the gas inlet to assure tight seal.
4. Periodically check wiring and wire connection to be sure wiring is not damaged/frayed and
that all terminals and connections are tight and in compliance with codes.
Draining and Storage of Water Heater
If RV is to be stored during winter months, the water heater must be drained to prevent damage
from freezing.
1. Turn off electrical power to water heater either at the switch from the electrical element or at
breaker.
2. Shut off gas supply to water heater.
3. Turn off pressure pump on water system.
4. Open both hot and cold water faucets.
5. Remove anode rod from tank.
6. Follow instructions for draining entire water system in Chapter 4.
NOTE: Be certain to refill water heater with water and remove all air from tank and lines
before relighting or before turning on electrical power.
