CARING FOR YOUR WATER HEATER
Draining the Water Heater
WARNING:
Failure to follow these draining instructions can cause
serious personal injury from scalding and/or product
damage.
Turn off the water heater by pressing the POWER
ON/OFF button on the LED display.
Close the gas shut-off valve(s).
At least 10 seconds after Step 1, unplug the water
heater or disconnect the power supply at the circuit
breaker box.
Open all hot water faucets. Run the water until it is
COLD; then shut off the faucet.
Close the water shut-off valve.
Find the water drain valve and the water filter located
at bottom of the water heater.
Using a suitable container to catch the water, remove
the water drain valve from the base of the hot water
outlet line, and the water filter from the base of the
cold water inlet line.
Connect a garden hose to the drain valve in the hot
water outlet line and place the other end in a suitable
drain. Open the drain valve until all the water has
drained from the water heater. Leave water heater as
is until placed back in service.
