FAILURE TO ADHERE TO THE GUIDELINES ON THIS PAGE
CAN RESULT IN SUBSTANTIAL PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE
PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.
NOTE: If the heater is exposed to the following, do not operate
until all corrective steps have been made by a qualied serviceman:
1. Fire
2. Damage
3. Water
Failure to follow this information could result in property damage,
severe personal injury, or death.
A. When Servicing the Water Heating System
To avoid electric shock, disconnect electrical supply before
performing maintenance.
To avoid severe burns, allow water heater and associated equipment
to cool before servicing.
B. Heater Water
Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds in
a water heating system. Gaskets and seals in the system may be
damaged. This can result in substantial property damage.
Do not use “homemade cures” or “patent medicines”. Damage to the
water heater, substantial property damage, and/or serious personal
injury may result.
C. Freeze Protection
NOTE: Consider piping and installation when determining heater
location. Place the water heater as close to the boiler as possible, in
a location not prone to freezing.
Failure of the water heater due to freeze related damage IS NOT
covered by product warranty.
NEVER use any toxic chemical, including automotive, standard glycol
antifreeze, or ethylene glycol made for hydronic (non-potable)
systems. These chemicals can attack gaskets and seals in water
systems, are poisonous if consumed, and can cause personal injury
or death.
UNCRATING THE WATER HEATER - Any claims for damage or
shortage in shipment must be led immediately against the
transportation company by the consignee.
Do not use this water heater for anything other than its intended
purpose (as described in this manual). Doing so could result in
propertly damage and WILL VOID product warranty.
High heat sources (sources generating heat 100
o
F / 37
o
C or
greater, such as stove pipes, space heaters, etc.) may damage
plastic components of the water heater as well as plastic vent
pipe materials. Such damages ARE NOT covered by warranty. It is
recommended to keep a minimum clearance of 8” from high heat
sources. Observe heat source manufacturer instructions, as well
as local, state, provincial, and national codes, laws, regulations
and ordinances when installing this water heater and related
components near high heat sources.
D. Water Temperature Adjustment
If the water heater is going to have a set temperature above 120
o
F, you
must use an ASSE 1017 rated mixing valve to avoid severe burns or
death from scalding temperatures.
Households with small children, disabled, or elderly persons may
require a 120
o
F or lower temperature setting to prevent severe
personal injury or death due to scalding.
Approximate Time / Temperature Relationships in Scalds

Part 2 - Prepare the Water Heater
COLD WEATHER HANDLING - If the water heater has been stored
in a very cold location (BELOW 0
o
F) before installation, handle with
care until the components come to room temperature. Failure to do
so could result in damage to the water heater.
Remove all sides of the shipping crate to allow the heater to be moved
into its installation location.
A. Locating the Water Heater
All water heaters eventually leak. Locate the water heater where any
leakage from the relief valve, related piping, tank, or connections
will not result in damage to surrounding areas or lower oors of the
building. Any water heater should be installed in such a manner that
if it should leak the resulting ow of water will not cause damage
to the area in which it is installed. National Plumbing codes require
a drain pan for any water heater installation. This drain pan should
be sized with a maximum depth of 2”, and a minimum diameter
2” greater than the diameter of the water heater. The drain pan
should empty into an open drain line. This drain line should be
3/4” ID minimum, piped to an open drain. Leakage damages ARE
NOT covered by warranty. Failure to install a drain pan is the sole
responsibility of the owner and/or installer. Reference UPC 2000
(Uniform Plumbing Code) Section 510 - Protection from Damage or
IPC 200 (International Plumbing code) Section 504 - Safety Devices.
Leakage damages ARE NOT covered by warranty.
In addition, water leak detection devices and automatic water shuto
valves are readily available at plumbing supply houses. IT IS HIGHLY
RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER TO INSTALL WATER LEAK
DETECTION DEVICES AND AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF VALVES IN ANY
WATER HEATER INSTALLATION WHERE A LEAKAGE OF WATER COULD
RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGES.
