Location
This water heater is not intended for outdoor installation.
Select a convenient location for water heater, based on domestic and boiler piping hook-ups.
Keeping the distance between boiler and water heater short will:
• reduce piping heat loss.
• provide minimum friction loss.
Install water heater so if tank or any connections should leak, the water flow will not cause
damage to area near water heater, or to lower floors of structure. When such locations cannot
be avoided, install a suitable drain pan under water heater. Drain pans are available at your
local plumbing supply store.
This product is designed for vertical installation only.
