Installation of the Water Heater
Prior to the installation of the water heater, please contact
the local gas company or the gas management department
to select qualified gas pipe, pressure regulating valve, steel
cylinder, clamp, smoke exhaust pipe and so on. You must
entrust a qualified and specialized technician to install the
gas water heater. (Note: The user cannot install the gas
water heater himself/herself, since an improper installation
can bring a great impact on the safety performance, or even
threaten the user’s life.) Prior to the installation, please
reconfirm whether the type of gas you are using agrees with
the type of gas specified on the rating plate of the water
heater.
This water heater is a flue gas water heater, which can be
used only after all exhaust gases vented to the outdoors in
strict accordance with the requirements. It is forbidden to
use this water heater if the smoke exhaust pipe fails to be
correctly installed according to the requirements in this
manual.
Since each user has his/her own building structure, this
company cannot provide a uniform smoke exhaust pipe. The
user can purchase his/her proper smoke exhaust pipe based
on his/her own building structure.
Installation Requirements
1. Do not install the water heater in bathrooms;
2. Do not install the water heater in a place where there is
strong wind, otherwise the flame of the water heater will
be blown out or an incomplete combustion will occur.
3. Do not install the water heater in the outdoors.
4. Do not install the water heater in a confined room. Install
it in a well-ventilated room with a volume more than
7.5 m³. There should be an air inlet with an area more
than 0.06㎡connected to the outdoors. A smoke exhaust
pipe must be also installed.
5. Install the water heater in a place where the line of sight
and the viewport are at the same level, that is,
1.55~1.65m above the ground, and where the water
heater is distant from combustibles.
6. Do not place any electric open wire, electric appliance or
gas pipeline above the installation site of the water
heater. Keep a horizontal distance more than 40cm
between the water heater and electric appliances. Do
not install any gas appliance such as the gas oven and
the gas range underneath the water heater.
7. Keep a distance greater than 150mm between the water
heater and the surrounding walls and the ceiling. Build
the installation site with noncombustible materials.
Otherwise, insulate the water heater with a heat
insulating panel. The distance between the insulating
panel and the surrounding walls should be greater than
10mm.
8. Install an inlet valve in the water inlet pipe of the water
heater.
9. Place the vent of the smoke exhaust pipe in the outdoors.
10. For liquefied petroleum gas users, select qualified gas
pressure regulating valves and hoses to ensure the
water heater a proper operation and security use; for
pipeline gas users, ask the gas company or the relevant
management authority to connect gas pipes.
After the flue gas water heater is installed with a smoke
exhaust pipe, during the use, do not turn on any
mechanical ventilation equipment such as the smoke
exhaust ventilator and the exhaust fan in the room where
the water heater is installed or to which the water heater is
connected.
Note: The connectors at the bottom would be in a
different order for different models. Make the real
object as the standard during the connection.
