COMPONENT LOCATION
CAUTION
This water heater must be located in an area where leakage
of the tank, water line connections, or the temperature and
pressure relief valve will not result in damage to the area
adjacent to the water heater or to lower floors of the
structure. When such locations cannot be avoided, a
suitable drain pan must be installed under the water heater.
The drain pan depth must be suitable for draining and
collecting water. The drain pan can be purchased from
your plumbing professional. The drain pan must be piped
to an adequate drain. The piping must be at least ¾ inch in
diameter and pitched for proper drainage.
