PRIOR TO START UP

Installation  and  start  up  of  this  water  heater  requires  abilities 

and skills equivalent to that of a licensed tradesman in the field 

involved, see 

Qualifications

 

(page 6)

.

DO NOT USE THIS APPLIANCE IF ANY PART HAS BEEN 

EXPOSED TO FLOODING OR WATER DAMAGE

. Immediately 

call a qualified service agency to inspect the appliance and to 

make a determination on what steps should be taken next. If the 

unit is exposed to the following, do not operate heater until all 

corrective steps have been made by a qualified service agency.

1. 

External fire

2. 

Damage

3.  Firing without water

Light  the  water  heater  in  accordance  with  the  Lighting  and 

Operation Instruction label on the water heater and in this manual 

Lighting the Water Heater 

(page 54).

The  water  heaters  covered  by  this  manual  are  equipped  with 

an  electronic  control  system,  which  automatically  sequences 

the Combustion Blower, pre and post purging of the combustion 

chamber,  the  spark  transformer,  the  24-volt  gas  valve,  Main 

Burner ignition, and flame sensing. The control system will lock 

out after three unsuccessful ignition attempts. See 

Control System 

Operation 

(page 45).

START-UP PREPARATION

Before  attempting  start  up,  thoroughly  study  and  familiarize 

yourself with the exact 

Sequence Of Operation 

(page 57). Ensure 

the water heater is properly grounded. Flame sensing requires an 

adequate earth ground. If the water heater is not properly grounded 

it will cause ignition failure.
Be certain that the water heater is full of water, that air is purged 

from the gas and water lines and that there are no leaks in the gas 

and water lines. Ensure all inlet water valves are open.

FILLING THE WATER HEATER

Follow these steps to fill the water heater prior to start up.

1. 

Close the heater drain valve.

2. 

Open  a  nearby  hot  water  faucet  to  permit  air  in  system  to 

escape.

3.  Fully open the cold water inlet valve allowing the piping and 

water heater to fill with water.

4. 

Close the hot water faucet opened in Step 2 as water starts 

to flow.

INITIAL START UP

REQUIRED TEST EQUIPMENT

• 

One  U-tube  manometer,  recommended  ranges;  0-14” 

W.C. (0-3.5 kPa) and 0-35” W.C. (0-8.7 kPa) or pressure 

gauges. 

• 

One  digital  manometer  can  be  used  in  place  of  U-tube 

manometers or pressure gauges. Recommended ranges; 

-14.00 to +14.00” W.C. (0-3.5 kPa) resolution 0.01” W.C. 

and 0-35” W.C. (0-8.7 kPa) resolution 0.10” W.C.

Note: 

All test equipment must be acclimated to ambient 

temperature before calibration and use.

START-UP PROCEDURE

1. 

Using the control system menus, change the Operating Set 

Point to the lowest temperature setting. See 

Operating Set Point 

and Differential Adjustment 

(page 48).

2. 

Turn the water heater’s Enable/Disable switch to the "Disabled" 

position.

3.  Close the Main Gas Shut Off Valve, see 

Figure 54 

(page 40).

4. 

Wait five (5) minutes for any residual gas to clear.

5. 

Connect the manometer to the supply gas pressure port on the 

gas valve. See 

Figure 60 

(page 53) and 

Figure 61 

(page 53)

.

Note: 

The manometer tubing should be purged before 

taking any readings.

Water heaters covered by this manual have test ports for  

supply and manifold gas pressure readings on the gas 

valve. Using a small flat tip pocket screw driver - open 

the needle valve inside the supply gas pressure test port 

one full turn only; turn the needle valve screw counter-

clockwise to open the valve. Slide the manometer sensing 

tube over the top of the test port. See 

Figure 60 

(page 53)

 

and 

Figure 61 

(page 53)

.

6.  Open the Main Gas Shutoff Valve.

7. 

Measure and record the supply gas pressure, this is a “static” 

supply gas pressure reading; while the water heater is not firing. 

Adjust supply gas pressure as necessary. See 

Initial Start Up
