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.
