Installation (Locating the Water Heater) continued-
Water heaters in residential garages must be installed so that all
burner(s) and burner ignition device(s) are located not less than 18
inches (45.7 cm) above the floor and be located, or protected, to avoid
physical damage. For other installations refer to local codes. In the
absence of local codes, the water heater must be installed in compliance
with the National Fuel Gas Code, (ANSI Z223.1- Latest Edition), or in
Canada CAN/CGA B149.1 Natural Gas Installation Code (Latest Edition)
or CAN/CGA B149.2 Propane Installation Code (Latest Edition).
The location of this water heater is of the utmost importance. Before installing
this water heater, you should read the Installation section of these instructions.
After reading these Installation and Operating Instructions, select a location for
the water heater where the floor is level and is easily accessible to gas and
water supply lines. DO NOT locate the water heater where water lines
could be subjected to freezing temperatures. Make sure the cold-water
pipes are not located directly above the gas control so that condensate
during humid weather does not drip on the controls.
Note: For California installation, this water heater must be braced,
anchored, or strapped to avoid falling or moving during an earthquake.
See instructions for correct installation procedures. Instructions may be
obtained from DSA Headquarters Office, 1102 Q Street, Suite 5100,
Sacramento, CA 95811.
Water heater corrosion and component failure can be caused by the heating
and breakdown of airborne chemical vapors. Examples of some typical
compounds that are potentially corrosive are: spray can propellants, cleaning
solvents, refrigerator and air conditioning refrigerants, swimming pool
chemicals, calcium and sodium chloride, waxes and process chemicals.
These materials are corrosive at very low concentration levels with little or no
odor to reveal their presence.
WARNING
Liquefied petroleum gases/propane gases are heavier than air and will
remain at floor level if there is a leak. Basements, crawl spaces, closets
and areas below ground level will serve as pockets for accumulation of
leaking gas. Before lighting, smell all around the appliance area for
gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor.
IF YOU SMELL GAS:
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any telephone in your
building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s telephone.
Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.
DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE UNTIL LEAKAGE IS CORRECTED!
