3 INST ALLING YOUR GAS W A TER HEA TER Important Information About This W ater Heater This gas water heater was manufactured to voluntary safety standards to reduce the likelihood of a flammable vapor ignition incident. New technology used in meeting these standards makes this product more sensitive to installation errors or improper installation e[...]

4 Location Requirements The FVIR System is designed to reduce the risk of flammable vapor-related fires. Flammable liquids (such as gasoline, solvents, propane, etc,) emit flammable vapors which can be ignited by a gas water heater ’ s spark igniter or main burner . The resulting flashback and fire can cause death or serious burns to anyone in th[...]

5 • The water heater should be located in an area not subject to freezing temperatures. W ater heaters located in unconditioned spaces (i.e., attics, basements, etc.) may require insulation of the water piping and drain piping to protect against freezing. The drain and controls must be easily accessible for operation and service. Maintain proper [...]

6 Gas Supply Gas Requirements IMPORT ANT : Read the data plate to be sure the water heater is made for the type of gas you will be using in your home. This information will be found on the data plate located near the gas control valve/thermostat. If the information does not agree with the type of gas available, do not install or light. Call your de[...]

7 Combustion Air Supply and V entilation IMPORT ANT : Air for combustion and ventilation must not come from a corrosive atmosphere. Any failure due to corrosive elements in the atmosphere is excluded from warranty coverage. The following types of installation (not limited to the following) will require outdoor air for combustion due to chemical exp[...]

8 Unconfined Space A water heater in an unconfined space uses indoor air for combustion and requires at least 50 cubic feet for each 1,000 BTU/HR of the total input for all gas appliances. The table below shows a few examples of the minimum square footage (area) required for various BTU/HR inputs. IMPORT ANT : • The area must be open and be able [...]

9 All Air from Outdoors Outdoor fresh air can be provided to a confined area either directly or by the use of vertical and horizontal ducts. The fresh air can be taken from the outdoors or from crawl or attic spaces that freely communicate with the outdoors. Attic or crawl spaces cannot be closed and must be properly ventilated to the outside. Duct[...]

10 V ent Pipe System This water heater uses a non-direct, single-pipe vent system to remove exhaust gases created by the burning of fossil fuels. Air for combustion is taken from the immediate water heater location or is ducted in from the outside (see “Combustion Air Supply and V entilation” section). This water heater must be properly vented [...]

11 Chimney Connection IMPORT ANT : Before connecting a vent to a chimney , make sure the chimney passageway is clear and free of obstructions. The chimney must be cleaned if previously used for venting solid fuel appliances or fireplaces. Also consult local and state codes for proper chimney sizing and application or , in the absence of local and s[...]

12 W ater System Piping Piping Installation Piping, fittings, and valves should be installed according to the installation drawing (Figure 16). If the indoor installation area is subject to freezing temperatures, the water piping must be protected by insulation. The water supply pressure should not exceed 80 psi. If this occurs, a pressure reducing[...]

13 Please note the following: • The system should be installed only with piping that is suitable for potable (drinkable) water such as copper , CPVC, or polybutylene. This water heater must not be installed using iron piping or PVC water piping. • Use only pumps, valves, or fittings that are compatible with potable water . • Use only full flo[...]

14 T emperature and Pressure Relief V alve For protection against excessive pressures and temperatures, a temperature and pressure relief valve must be installed in the opening marked “T & P RELIEF V AL VE” (see Figure 18). This valve must be design certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory that maintains periodic inspection o[...]

15 Special Applications Combination Space Heating/Potable W ater System Some water heater models are equipped with inlet/ outlet connections for use in space heating applications. Note: this water heater , “Suitable for combination water (potable) heating and space heating and not suitable for space heating applications only .” If this water he[...]

16 W ater Heater Location W ater heater location is important and can affect system performance. Please check the following: □ Installation area free of corrosive elements and flammable materials. □ Centrally located with the water piping system. Located as close to the gas piping and vent pipe system as possible. □ W ater heater must be loca[...]

17 OPERA TING YOUR W A TER HEA TER Lighting Instructions Read and understand these directions thoroughly before attempting to start or re-start the water heater . Make sure the viewport is not missing or damaged. (See Figure 28) Make sure the tank is completely filled with water before turning the power switch on. Check the data plate near the gas [...]

18 L.P .G. (Bottled Propane) Models Lique fi ed petroleum gas is over 50% heavier than air and in the occurrence of a leak in the system, the gas will settle at fl oor level. Basements, crawl spaces, skirted areas under mobile homes (even when ventilated), closets and areas below ground level will serve as pockets for the accumulation of gas. Bef[...]

19 W ater T emperature Regulation The thermostat is adjusted to the pilot position when it is shipped from the factory . Water temperature can be regulated by moving the temperature dial to the preferred setting. The preferred starting point is 120°F at the “HOT” setting. Align the knob with the desired water temperature as shown in Figure 22.[...]

20 Electrical Connections Before plugging in the water heater , always make sure: • The V oltage and frequency correspond to that specified on the water heater . • The electrical outlet has the proper overload fuse or breaker protection. • W ater heater to be located within 6 feet of 120V AC outlet. • Unit is to connect to a 120V AC electri[...]

22 Operational Conditions Condensation Moisture from the products of combustion condenses on the tank surface and the outside jacket of the water heater and forms drops of water which may fall onto the burner or other hot surfaces. This will produce a “sizzling” or “frying” noise. NOTE: This condensation is normal and should not be confused[...]

23 MAINTENANCE OF YOUR W A TER HEA TER Draining and Flushing It is recommended that the tank be drained and flushed every 6 months to remove sediment which may build up during operation.
