INSTALL THE CONDENSATE DRAIN
GAS PIPING
DANGER
Common Vented water heaters must be direct vented, with an exhaust vent and intake air pipe vented to the outdoors. DO NOT power vent
Common Vented water heaters! Doing so will result in property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
NOTE
: This drawing is meant only to demonstrate system venting. The installer is responsible for all equipment and detailing required by local
codes. For sidewall applications, terminate the outlet on the exterior wall at least 12" above the ground, or as required by local building codes. In
areas of high snowfall, protect both sidewall and roof vent terminations from blockage by installing at least 12" above the maximum anticipated
snowfall accumulation.

WARNING
FIRE AND/OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
To avoid serious injury or death, the gas line installation and the gas line inlet pressure test must be done by a licensed professional.
Always match the water heater with the type of gas supplied to the unit (natural gas or LP gas). This water heater must be converted into propane
operation unless specifically manufactured for use with propane. Follow Gas Conversion Manual instructions (separate document). Propane ready
water heaters have the suffix “LP” after the model serial number.
Make sure the gas line pressures are within normal limits. Pressures outside normal limits can result in poor performance and hazardous
operating conditions.
This water heater must be converted into propane operation unless it is specifically manufactured to operate on propane. Propane-ready water
heaters have the suffix “LP” after the model serial number. Failure to ensure the water heater is set to operate on the provided gas supply could
result in property damage, personal injury, or death.
1. Gas Pipe Sizing
This information is for reference use only. Refer to gas pipe manufacturer specifications for actual delivery capacity. The DOE standard for
Natural Gas is 1100 BTU/ft
3
. Contact the local gas supplier for actual BTU/ft
3
rating.
2. Natural Gas Pipe Sizing
The following tables list maximum capacity of pipe in cubic feet of gas per hour for gas pressures of 11" (27.9 cm) or less and a pressure
drop of 0.5 inches (0.12 kPa) water column, based on a 0.60 specific gravity for natural gas.
