PREPARING FOR THE INSTALLATION
1. Read the “General Safety” section, page 3 and 4 of this manual
first and then the entire manual carefully. If you don’t follow the
safety rules, the water heater will not operate properly. It could
cause DEATH, SERIOUS BODILY INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY
DAMAGE.
This manual contains instructions for the installation, operation, and
maintenance of the gas-fired water heater. It also contains warnings
throughout the manual that you must read and be aware of. All
warnings and all instructions are essential to the proper operation of
the water heater and your safety. Since we cannot put everything
on the first few pages, READ THE ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL OR OPERATE THE WATER HEATER.
2. The installation must conform with these instructions and the
local code authority having jurisdiction. In the absence of local
codes, installations shall comply with the National Fuel Gas Code
(ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54) or the Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code (CAN/CSA B149.1) and the National Electrical
Code (NFPA 70), or the Canadian Electrical Code (C22.1). These
publications are available from The National Fire Protection
Association, 1 Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.
3. The water heater when installed must be grounded in accordance
with the local codes, or in the absence of local codes: the National
Electrical Code (NFPA 70) or the Canadian Electrical Code (C22.1).
4. If after reading this manual you have any questions or do not
understand any portion of the instructions, call the local gas utility
or the manufacturer whose name appears on the rating plate.
5. Carefully plan the place where you are going to put the water
heater. Correct combustion, vent action, and vent pipe installation
are very important in preventing death from possible carbon
monoxide poisoning and fires, see Figures 1 and 2.
Examine the location to ensure the water heater complies with
the “Locating the New Water Heater” section in this manual.
6. For California installation this water heater must be braced,
anchored, or strapped to avoid falling or moving during an
