Optional Installation Instructions
Some compact models have optional plumbing connections.
On these units, if top connection is preferred over the side
connection, use the following instructions as they apply
to your connection:
To change Temperature and Pressure (T&P) valve location:
Remove 3/4” plug from opening in jacket top. Replace
3/4” plug opening with T&P valve; plug original T&P
valve opening with 3/4” plug.
BE SURE TO REAPPLY
PIPE JOINT COMPOUND OR TEFLON
®
TAPE AROUND
THE THREADED ENDS OF THE TEMPERATURE AND
PRESSURE (T&P) VALVE AND THE 3/4” PLUG WHEN
REINSTALLING COMPONENTS.
To change Cold Inlet location: Remove 3/4” plug from
opening in jacket top. Replace 3/4” plug opening with
Cold Inlet nipple; plug original Cold Inlet opening with 3/4”
plug.
BE SURE TO REAPPLY PIPE JOINT COMPOUND
OR TEFLON
®
TAPE AROUND THE THREADED ENDS OF
THE COLD INLET NIPPLE AND THE 3/4” PLUG WHEN
REINSTALLING COMPONENTS.
To change Hot Outlet location: Screw 3/4” NPT galvanized
cap (not included, purchase locally) onto Side Hot Outlet
and install 3/4” NPT nipple (not included, purchase locally)
in the opening identified as HOT/T&P location.
BE SURE
TO REAPPLY PIPE JOINT COMPOUND OR TEFLON
®
TAPE AROUND THE THREADED ENDS OF THE 3/4”
NPT NIPPLES WHEN REINSTALLING COMPONENTS.
T & P Valve and Pipe Insulation
1. Locate the temperature and pressure relief valve on the water
heater (also known as a T&P relief valve). See Figure 9A.
2. Locate the slit running the length of the T&P relief valve
insulation.
3. Spread the slit open and fit the insulation over the T&P relief
valve. See Figure 9A. Apply gentle pressure to the insulation
to ensure that it is fully seated on the T&P Relief Valve. Once
seated, secure the insulation with duct tape, electrical tape,
or equivalent.
IMPORTANT: The insulation and tape must not block the
discharge opening or hinder access to the manual relief lever
(Figure 9A). Ensure a discharge pipe is installed into the T&P
valve discharge opening per the instructions in this manual.
4. Locate the hot water (outlet) & cold water (inlet) pipes to the
water heater.
5. Locate the slit running the length of a section of pipe insulation.
6. Spread the slit open and slip the insulation over the cold
water (inlet) pipe. Apply gentle pressure along the length of
the insulation to ensure that it is fully seated around the pipe.
Also, ensure that the base of the insulation is flush with the
water heater. Once seated, secure the insulation with duct
tape, electrical tape, or equivalent.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for the hot water (outlet) pipe.
8. Add additional sections of pipe insulation as needed.

This heater is provided with a properly certified combination
temperature - pressure relief valve by the manufacturer.
The valve is certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory
that maintains periodic inspection of production of listed equipment
or materials as meeting the requirements for Relief Valves for Hot
Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22 • CSA 4.4, and the code
requirements of ASME.
If replaced, the valve must meet the requirements of local codes,
but not less than a combination temperature and pressure relief
valve certified as indicated in the above paragraph.
The valve must be marked with a maximum set pressure not to
exceed the marked hydrostatic working pressure of the water
heater (150 psi = 1,035 kPa) and a discharge capacity not less
