Drain Pan Installation
for non-flammable vapor ignition resistant manufactured home water heaters
1. This section is intended for use with non-flammable vapor ignition resistant
manufactured home water heaters that will be installed in an application where
a drain pan is required.
2. After hole is cut in floor and underside sheathing, and before the water heater
is installed, prepare drain pan.
3. Locate and cut a 3-1/2” diameter hole in drain pan at 4-1/2” from center (see
Figure 2). This hole will be located at the front of the water heater upon final
installation.
4. Align drain pan hole with hole cut in floor and underside sheathing for air
intake.
5. Apply 4” diameter circle of silicone around bottom of air intake plate and
screws used to secure air intake to floor for proper water tight sealing (see
Figure 3).
6. Continue proper installation per this installation and operation manual and the
roof jack & air intake installation instructions provided with the roof jack kit. Be
sure to apply silicone around screws used to secure the water heater to the
floor through the drain pan for proper water tight sealing.
CAUTION
Silicone has a strong odor and should have adequate ventilation until
cured. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for adequate drying time.
