Filling the Neutralizer Unit before Vent Pipe Installation.
DANGER
Prior to initial start up, make sure that you ll the neutralizer unit with water.
This is to prevent dangerous exhaust gases from entering the building.
Failure to ll the neutralizer unit could result in severe personal injury or death.
Please follow one of the procedures described below to ensure that the neutralizer unit is lled with water.
1) Fill the neutralizer unit by pouring approx. 17 oz. (500ml) of water into the exhaust accessory on the
top of the appliance as illustrated below.
Or, if the vent pipe has already been installed:
2) After installing the drain pipe, make sure that the area around the appliance is well ventilated; open a
window or a door if necessary.
Then, operate the unit and verify that condensate is coming out of the drain pipe.
(During normal use of the water heater, condensate will begin to discharge from the drain pipe within 15 minutes
of use. However, depending on the season and/or installation site conditions, it may take longer.)

Electrical
The electrical power supply to the unit should be installed by a qualied electrician.
Allocate 2A on the circuit for this water heater.
If more than one unit is being installed, allocate an appropriate circuit to provide power for each unit.
Condensate Piping (all MC models only)
t NCC199/N-0841MC/NRC111/N-0842MC series is a high eciency, fully condensing appliance which
produces condensate during operation. The water heater incorporates a collection, neutralization, and
removal system which must be properly drained in order to ensure proper operation of this appliance.
t The water heater is supplied with a pre-installed condensate neutralization system. No additional neu-
tralizer is required unless local code dictates otherwise.
t In order to drain the condensate, a 1/2" threaded tting is provided at the base of the water heater. Do
not reduce the size of this tting or the drain piping to less than 1/2".
t Use plastic pipe, such as PVC, for the drain line. Do not use steel, black iron, or any other material which
can corrode when placed into contact with water.
t Keep the length of the drain pipe as short as possible. Long runs or applications where the nearest drain
is above the water heater will require the use of a condensate pump. Size the pump to allow for a
maximum condensate discharge of 2 GPH from the water heater.
t Horizontal runs must be sloped 1/4" per foot towards the drain or condensate pump.
t The end of the drain pipe must not be submerged in water or blocked in any way.
t Be sure to check that condensate is freely owing from the drain piping after the system has been
installed. Condensate will begin owing out of the water heater within 15 minutes after operation has
started.
t Take measures to prevent the condensate drain lines from freezing (insulation, heat tape, electric heat-
ers, etc.).
