Do not install this water heater directly on a carpeted floor. A fire
hazard may result. Instead the water heater must be placed on a
metal or wood panel extending beyond the full width and depth
by at least 3 inches in any direction. If the heater is installed
in a carpeted alcove, the entire floor shall be covered by the
panel. Also, see the DrAINING requirements in MAINTeNANCe
Section.
The heater shall be located or protected so it is not subject to
physical damage by a moving vehicle.
Flammable items, pressurized containers or any other potential
fire hazardous articles must never be placed on or adjacent to
the heater. Open containers or flammable material should not be
stored or used in the same room with the heater.
The heater must not be located in an area where it will be subject
to freezing.
locate it near a floor drain. The heater should be located in an
area where leakage from heater or connections will not result in
damage to adjacent area or to lower floors of the structure.
When such locations cannot be avoided, a suitable drain pan
should be installed under heater. Such pans should be fabricated
with sides at least 2” deep, with length and width at least 2” greater
than diameter of heater and must be piped to an adequate drain.
Pan must not restrict combustion air flow.
ClearanCes
This water heater is approved for installation on combustible
flooring in an alcove with minimum clearance from combustion
construction as indicated in Figure 7 and Table 4.
In all installations the minimum combustible clearances from
vent piping shall be 6” (15.2 cm). Vent piping passing through a
combustible wall or ceiling must be a continuous run (no joints)
and retain 6” (15.2 cm) clearance unless an approved reducing
thimble is used.
A service clearance of at least 24” (61 cm) should be maintained
from serviceable parts.

CAUTION
When installing the heater, consideration must be given to
proper location. location selected should be as close to the
stack or chimney as practicable, with adequate air supply and as
centralized with the piping system as possible.
Fire or Explosion Hazard
Read instruction manual before
installing, using or servicing
water heater.
Avoid all ignition sources if you smell gas.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Use only the gas shown on the water heater rating label.
Keep ignition sources away from faucets after extended
periods of non-use.
Maintain required clearances to combustibles.
Do not expose water heater controls to excessive gas
pressure.
There is a risk in using fuel burning appliances such as gas
water heaters in rooms, garages or other areas where gasoline,
other flammable liquids or engine driven equipment or vehicles
are stored, operated or repaired. Flammable vapors are heavy
and travel along the floor and may be ignited by the heater's
igniter or main burner flames causing fire or explosion. Some
local codes permit operation of gas appliances in such areas if
they are installed 18" or more above the floor. This may reduce
the risk if location in such an area cannot be avoided.
