insulation Blanket

Do not obstruct water heater air intake

with insulating blanket.
Gas and carbon monoxide detectors

are available.
Install water heater in accordance with

the instruction manual.

Breathing carbon monoxide can cause brain damage or

death. Always read and understand instruction manual.

Breathing Hazard - Carbon Monoxide Gas

Insulation blankets are available to the general public for external

use on gas water heaters but are not necessary with these

products. The purpose of an insulation blanket is to reduce the

standby heat loss encountered with storage tank heaters. The

water heaters covered by this manual meet or exceed the energy

Policy Act standards with respect to insulation and standby heat

loss requirements, making an insulation blanket unnecessary.
Should you choose to apply an insulation blanket to this

heater, you should follow these instructions. See the Features

and Components section of this manual for identification of

components mentioned below. Failure to follow these instructions

can restrict the air flow required for proper combustion, potentially

resulting in fire, asphyxiation, serious personal injury or death.
• do not apply insulation to the top of the water heater, as

this will interfere with safe operation of the draft hood.

• do not cover the gas valve, thermostat or the Temperature-

Pressure relief Valve.

• do not allow insulation to come within 2” (5 cm) of the

burners, to prevent blockage of combustion air flow to the

burners.

• do not allow insulation to come within 9 inches (23 cm)

of floor, (within 2 inches (5 cm) of bottom cover) to prevent

blockage of combustion air flow to the burners..

• do not cover the instruction manual. Keep it on the side of

the water heater or nearby for future reference.

• do obtain new warning and instruction labels from the

manufacturer for placement on the blanket directly over the

existing labels.

• do inspect the insulation blanket frequently to make certain

it does not sag, thereby obstructing combustion air flow.

hard water

Where hard water conditions exist, water softening or the

threshold type of water treatment is recommended. This will

protect the dishwashers, coffee urns, water heaters, water piping

and other equipment.
See the Maintenance Section in this manual for sediment and

lime scale removal procedures.

CirCulation pumps

A circulating pump is used when a system requires a circulating

loop or there is a storage tank used in conjunction with the water

heater. See Water Piping Diagrams in this manual for installation

location of circulating pumps.
See the Circulation Pump Wiring Diagrams in this manual for

electrical hookup information. Install in accordance with the

current edition of the National electrical Code, NFPA 70 or the

Canadian electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
All-bronze or stainless steel circulating pumps are recommended

for use with commercial water heaters.

installation on ComBustiBle flooring

All units are approved for installations on combustible flooring

when installed with NSF leg kit number 9003425205. The installed

height of the water heater will increase by 3" when the leg kit is

installed.

figure 7.

1. Unit needs to be lifted in a way not to damage unit or laid

on it’s side to access the bottom of the legs.

2. Slide leg extension under leg and the bolt up through the

bottom hole located in the bottom of the leg.

3. Once in place, screw nut down and secure.
4. Front of leg should line up with front of leg extension as

shown to make sure weight of unit is distributed through the
leg extension.
