IMPORTANT
Before proceeding, please inspect the water heater and its components
for possible damage. DO NOT install any damaged components. If
damage is evident then please contact the supplier where the water
heater was purchased or the manufacturer listed on the rating plate for
replacement parts.
General Information continued-
Make sure that you check the rating plate and combination gas control on
the water heater to be certain that the type of gas being supplied
corresponds with the marking on the rating plate and combination gas
control.
A sacrificial anode is used to extend tank life. The removal of this anode, for
any reason, will nullify the warranty. In areas where water is unusually active,
an odor may occur at the hot water faucet due to a reaction between the
sacrificial anode and the impurities in the water. If this should happen, an
alternative anode may be purchased from the supplier that installed this
water heater. This will minimize the odor while protecting the tank.
Additionally, the water heater should be flushed with appropriate dissolvers
to eliminate any bacteria.
INSTALLATION
Water heaters are heat producing appliances. To avoid damage or injury,
do not store materials against the water heater or vent-air intake system.
Use proper care to avoid unnecessary contact (especially by children) with
the water heater and vent-air intake components. UNDER NO
CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, SUCH AS
GASOLINE OR PAINT THINNER BE USED OR STORED IN THE
VICINITY OF THIS WATER HEATER, VENT-AIR INTAKE SYSTEM OR
IN ANY LOCATION FROM WHICH FUMES COULD REACH THE
WATER HEATER OR VENT-AIR INTAKE SYSTEM.
LOCATING THE WATER HEATER
This water heater MUST NOT be installed in any location where gasoline or
flammable vapors are likely to be present, unless the installation is such to
eliminate the probable ignition of gasoline or flammable vapors.
Water heaters in residential garages must be installed and located, or
protected, to avoid physical damage. For other installations refer to
local codes. In the absence of local codes, the water heater must be
installed in compliance with the National Fuel Gas Code, (ANSI Z223.1-
Latest Edition), or in Canada CAN/CGA B149.1 Natural Gas Installation
Code (Latest Edition) or CAN/CGA B149.2 Propane Installation Code
(Latest Edition).
