SECTION 2:
INSTALLATION
2.1 RECEIVING THE UNIT
Each CENTURION Water Heater is shipped as a single, crated unit. The shipping weight for this
model is approximately 1,850 lbs. (839 kg).
The unit must be moved with proper rigging equipment for safety and to avoid damage. The unit
should be completely inspected for evidence of shipping damage and shipment completeness at
the time of receipt from the carrier and before the bill of lading is signed.
C A U T I O N !
While packaged in the shipping container, the unit must be moved by pallet jack or forklift
from the front only.
NOTE:
PVI is not responsible for lost or damaged freight. Each unit has A Tip-N-Tell indicator
on the outside of the crate, which indicates if the unit has been turned on its side during
shipment. If the Tip-N-Tell indicator is tripped, do not sign for the shipment. Note the
information on the carrier’s paperwork and request a freight claim and inspection by a claims
adjuster before proceeding. Any other visual damage to the packaging materials should also
be made clear to the delivering carrier.
2.2 UNPACKING
Carefully unpack the unit taking care not to damage the unit enclosure when cutting away
packaging materials
After unpacking, make a close inspection of the unit to ensure that there is no evidence of
damage not indicated by the Tip-N-Tell indicator. The freight carrier should be notified
immediately if any damage is detected.
