DANGER!

NATURAL GAS AND LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM MODELS

Both LP and natural gas have an odorant added to aid in detecting a gas leak.

Some people may not physically be able to smell or recognize this odorant. If you

are unsure or unfamiliar with the smell of LP or natural gas, ask the gas supplier.

Other conditions, such as “odorant fade”, which causes the odorant to diminish in

intensity, can also hide or camouage a gas leak. Always check with commercial

leak detector or soapy water.

• Gas detectors are recommended in LP and natural gas applications and

their installation should be in accordance with the detector manufacturer’s

recommendations and/or local laws, rules, regulations or customs.

• Water heaters utilizing LP gas are different from natural gas models. A natural

gas water heater will not function safely on LP gas and vice versa.

• No attempt should ever be made to convert the water heater from natural gas

to LP gas. To avoid possible equipment damage, personal injury or re, do not

connect the water heater to a fuel type not in accordance with the unit data

plate; propane for propane units and natural gas for natural gas units. These

units are not certied for any other fuel type.

• LP appliances should not be installed· below grade (for example, in a

basement) if such installation is prohibited by federal, state and/or local laws,

rules, regulations or customs.

• Propane or LP gas must be used with great caution. It is heavier than air and

will collect rst in lower areas making it hard to detect at nose level.

• Before attempting to light the water heater, make sure to look and smell for

gas leaks. Use a soapy solution to check all gas ttings and connections.

Bubbling at a connection indicates a leak that must be corrected. When smelling

to detect a gas leak, be sure to sniff near the oor also.

• It is recommended that more than one method, such as soapy solution, gas

detectors, etc., be used to detect leaks in gas applications.

Notice: If a gas leak is present or suspected:

• DO NOT attempt to nd the cause yourself.

• DO NOT try to light any appliance.

• DO NOT touch any electrical switch.

• DO NOT use any phone in your building.

• Leave the house immediately and make sure your family and pets leave

also.

• Leave the doors open for ventilation and contact the gas supplier, a

qualied service agency or the re department.

• Stay away from the house (or building) until the service call has been

made, the leak is corrected and a qualied agency has determined the

area to be safe.

• When the water is supplied from a water

supply tank, the height of the tank and the

diameter of the pipes and their relation to

water pressure, should be taken into

consideration. Gravity water pressure is

not recommended.

NOTICE: If the water ow resistance of a

shower head is too high, the burner in the

water heater will fail to ignite. Keep the

shower head clean from debris that could

cause additional pressure drop.

NOTICE: If using mixing valves on the outlet,

choose one which prevents cold water

pressure from overcoming hot water line

pressure.

IMPORTANT: Do not apply heat to the HOT

or COLD water connections. Any heat applied

to the water supply ttings will permanently

damage the internal components of the water

heater.

Water Supply Connections

Plumbing should be carried out by a qualied

plumber in accordance with local codes.

Use approved plumbing materials and tools only.

To conserve energy and to prevent freezing,

insulate both cold and hot water supply lines.

DO NOT cover the drain valves.

To ensure proper operation of the water

heater, the following water pressure

guidelines should be followed:

• Operation of the water heater requires the

minimum water pressure of 14 psi and a

minimum water ow rate of 0.75 gpm.

• Additional water pressure is required for

long pipe runs and outlet tting(s) water

pressure drops.

• To maintain proper performance, ensure

sufcient water supply pressure. The

Required Water Pressure = Min. Operating

Water Pressure (14 psi) + Pipe Pressure

Loss + Faucet and Shower Pressure Loss +

Safety Margin (more than 5 psi).

• To supply hot water to upper oors,

additional water pressure (0.44 psi/ft)

must be ensured.The measurement should

be calculated by the distance between the

water inlet of the water heater (ground

level) to the hot water faucet (upper oor level).

• Well water systems should be set at a

range of 50-60 psi.

Mounting the Water Heater

Make sure the location of the appliance allows for easy access

and operation.

In case of dry wall or concrete wall use dry wall anchors or lag bolts.

Water Supply Connections Continued

If a water heater is installed in a closed water supply system, such as one

having a backow preventer in the cold water supply line, means shall be

provided to control thermal expansion. Contact the water supplier or local

plumbing inspector on how to control this situation. Install a shutoff valve

near the inlet of the water heater for service and draining purposes.

Before connecting the water supply pipe to the water heater, open

the shutoff valve ·and clean out sand, debris, air, caulking material,

etc. inside the pipe. Connect to the water inlet, then check water ow.

Close the shutoff valve and clean the water lter.

Be sure to connect the water inlet and the hot water outlet as shown

on the water heater. If reversed, the water heater will not function.

Installation of unions or exible copper connections are

recommended on the HOT and COLD water lines, so that the water

heater may disconnect easily for servicing if necessary.

Install a Check Valve between the water heater and the water

shutoff

valve. (See illustration to the top left).

In regards to the HOT WATER OUTLET:

Connections between the water heater and point(s) of use should be

as short and direct as possible.

DO NOT use lead or non-approved plastic pipe.

NOTICE: The ow rate of hot water may vary when more than two

faucets (appliances, xtures, etc.) are being used simultaneously.

NOTICE: The pipes MUST be completely drainable. If the hot water faucets are located at a point higher

than the water heater, place a drain valve at the lowest point (see illustration to the bottom left).

Gas Supply

WARNING: Do not attempt to convert this water heater for use with a different type of gas

other than the type shown on the rating plate. Such conversion could result in hazardous operating

conditions. Please have a professional connect the gas pipe.

A Manual Gas Appliance Shutoff

Valve must be installed at the gas

connection of the water heater at the

time of installation (see diagram to

the left). The branch gas supply line to

the water heater should be clean black

steel pipe or other approved gas piping

material.

A ground joint union or ANSI design

certied semi-rigid or exible gas

appliance connector should be

installed in the gas line close to the

water heater. The National Fuel Gas

Code (NFGC) mandates a manual gas

shut-off valve: See (NFGC) for complete

instructions.

If exible connectors are used, the

maximum length shall not exceed 36”.

If lever type gas shut offs are used,

they shall be T-Handle type.

Compound used on the threaded

joints of the gas piping must be of

the type resistant to the action of LP

gas. Use compound sparingly on male

threads only.

A sediment trap should be installed

at the bottom of the gas line.

Do not use excessive force (over

31.5 ft lbs.) in tightening the pipe,

particularly if pipe-tape compound

is used, as the unit may be damaged.

The inlet gas pressure to the water

heater must not exceed 10.5 “ w.c.

for natural or 14” w.c. for LP gas. For

purposes of input adjustment, the

minimum inlet gas pressure (with

main burner on) is shown on the

water heater rating plate. If high or

low gas pressures are present, contact

your gas supplier for correction.

• No valve of any type should be installed between the

relief valve and the water heater.

• Discharge from the relief valve should be piped to a

suitable drain to eliminate potential water damage. Piping

used should be of a type approved for the distribution of

hot water.

• Hot and cold water lines should be insulated up to the

water heater.

• The discharge line must be NO SMALLER than the outlet

of the valve and must pitch downward to allow complete

drainage (by gravity) of the relief valve and discharge line.

• The end of the discharge line should not be threaded or

concealed and should be protected from freezing. No

valve of any type, restriction or reducer coupling should

be installed in discharge line.

NOTICE: Local codes govern the installation of relief valves. If local codes require that a temperature

and pressure relief valve should be installed the manufacturer recommends a type 40XL Watts T&P

relief valve or an equivalent model be used.

NOTICE: Manual operation of relief valves should be performed at least once a year. Turn off the

electrical power and gas shutoff valve. Lift and release lever on the relief valve and check the manual

operation of the relief valve. You should take precaution to avoid contact with the hot water coming

out of the relief valve and to prevent water damage.

NOTICE: If the relief valve on the system discharges periodically, this may be due to thermal expansion

in a closed water supply system. Contact the water supplier or local plumbing inspector on how to

correct theis situation. Do not plug the relief valve.

A new pressure relief valve, complying with the Standard for relief Valves and Automatic Gas Shut-Off Devices

for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22, must be installed at the hot water outlet connection of the water

heater at the time of installation. Local codes shall govern the installation of relief valves.

For safe operation of the water heater, be sure that:

NOTICE: The above illustrates

a pressure only relief valve.

If local codes require a

combination temperature

and pressure relief valve be

installed, an extension piece

may be needed.

Pressure Testing the Gas Supply System

WARNING: Install a gas pressure regulator, in the gas supply line, which does not exceed the

maximum supply pressure.

DO NOT use an industrial type gas regulator.

Failure to isolate heater during pressure test can damage internal components voiding warranty. The water

heater must be isolated from the gas piping system by closing the manual gas shut-off valve during any pressure

testing of the gas supply piping at pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (14’w.c.).

Leak Testing

WARNING: Never use an open ame to test for gas leaks, as property damage, personal

injury, or death could result.

The water heater and its gas connections must be leak tested at normal operating pressures before

it is placed in operation.

• Turn on the gas shut-off valve(s) to the water heater.

• Use a commercial leak detector or soapy water solution to test for leaks at all connections and ttings.

Bubbles indicate a gas leak that must be corrected.

The factory connections should also be leak tested after the water heater is placed in operation.

High Altitude

Ratings of gas appliances are based on sea level operation and need not be changed for installations at

elevations up to 2,000 feet.

Unit not recommended for elevations in excess of 2,000 feet

Installing the water heater.

Flue Terminal Location

The location of the vent terminal depends on the following minimum clearances and considerations

(see illustration):

• Twelve (12) inches above grade level and above normal snow levels.

• Four (4) feet below, or four (4) feet horizontally from any door,

window, soft, under eave vent or gravity air inlet to the building

or other appliances, or from gas or electric meters. Do not locate

vent above walkways, doors, windows, air inlets, gas or electric

meters or other equipment.

• Ten (10) feet from any forced air inlet to the building. Any fresh or

make-up air inlet such as for a dryer or furnace area

is considered to be a forced air inlet.

• Eighteen (18) inches from an inside corner formed by two exterior walls.

• DO NOT install vent terminal under any patio or deck.

• To help prevent moisture from freezing on walls and under eaves,

do not locate vent terminal on the side of a building

with prevailing winter winds.

• DO NOT locate vent terminal too close to shrubbery, as ue

gases may damage them.

• Caulk all cracks, seams and joints within six (6) feet of vent terminal.

• All painted surfaces should be primed to lessen the chance of

physical damage. Painted surfaces will require maintenance.

Additional Considerations

WARNING : Moisture in the ue gas will condense as it leaves the vent terminal. In cold weather

this condensate can freeze on the exterior wall, under the eaves and on surrounding objects.

Some discoloration to the exterior of the building is to be expected. However, improper location

or installation can result in severe damage to the structure or exterior nish of the building. Code

requirements are subject to change and may vary by location.
