7.  Accessing the blower wheel through the outlet, use 

the paint brush to brush off the outer edge of the 
blower wheel to dislodge the dirt stuck on the blades 
and the inside of the housing. Rotate the wheel until 
all blades are clear. Note: The wheel is a balanced 
component. Do not bend, dent or distort the blades as 
this can upset the wheel balance and affect the blower 
operation. Vacuum out the loosened dirt.

8.  Accessing the inside of the blower wheel through the 

rear of the housing, gently brush off the inside of the 
blades using the toothbrush. Again, take care not to 
distort the blades. Rotate the wheel until all blades are 
cleaned and vacuum the debris. Do not remove any 
of the balancing chips attached to the blades.

9. Inspect 

the 

fl

 ue collector hood (still attached to the 

heater) and vacuum out the dust and debris that may 
have accumulated.

10. With all parts cleaned and the blower wheel turning 

freely, reinstall the blower to the mounting plate 
aligning the (4) studs and pushing tight against the 
mounting plate.

11.  Reinstall the (4) 11/32” nuts and tighten securely. All 

(4) nuts must be in place and secure to safely operate 
the blower.

12.  Reattach the vent piping and coupling to the top of the 

blower, tighten the bottom gear clamp and ensure the 
piping is secure.

13.  With all components clean and secure, reconnect the 

electrical power to the heater.

14.  Reset the thermostat to the desired temperature 

setting and turn the gas control switch back to the 
“ON” position. Note: If the water in the heater is hot, 
the unit will wait to operate until there is a need for 
more hot water.

 BURNER OPERATION AND INSPECTION

Flood damage to a water heater may not be readily visible 
or immediately detectable. However, over a period of time 
a 

fl

 ooded water heater will create dangerous conditions 

which can cause death, serious bodily injury, or property 
damage. Contact a quali

fi

 ed installer or service agency to 

replace a 

fl

 ooded water heater. Do not attempt to repair 

the unit! It must be replaced!

At least once a year a visual inspection should be made of 
the main burner and the hot surface igniter assembly for 
proper 

fl

 ame characteristics and ignition sequences. This 

can be done by removing the outer door and viewing the 
main burner operation through the viewport on the inner 
door (see Figure 50). The main burner should provide 
complete combustion of gas, ignite rapidly, give reasonably 
quiet operation, and cause no excessive 

fl

 ame lifting from 

the burner ports. If the proper 

fl

 ame characteristics are 

not evident (see Figure 51), make sure that the 

fl

 ow  of 

combustion and ventilation air is not blocked.

You should also check for sooting. Soot is not normal and 
will impair proper combustion. A visual inspection of the 
main burner and hot surface igniter should also be done 
at least once a year (see Figure 50).

Soot build-up indicates a problem that requires correction 
before further use. Turn “OFF” gas to water heater by 
unplugging the power cord and leave off until repairs are 
made. Failure to correct the cause of the sooting can result 
in a 

fi

 re causing death, serious injury, or property damage.
