Drain Pan Installation
for non-flammable vapor ignition resistant manufactured home water heaters
1. This section is intended for use with non-flammable vapor ignition
resistant manufactured home water heaters that will be installed in an
application where a drain pan is required.
2. After hole is cut in floor and underside sheathing, and before the water
heater is installed, prepare drain pan.
3. Locate and cut a 3-1/2” diameter hole in drain pan at 4-1/2” from center
(see Figure 2). This hole will be located at the front of the water heater
upon final installation.
4. Align drain pan hole with hole cut in floor and underside sheathing for
air intake.
5. Apply 4” diameter circle of silicone around bottom of air intake plate and
screws used to secure air intake to floor for proper water tight sealing
(see Figure 3).
6. Continue proper installation per this installation and operation manual
and the roof jack & air intake installation instructions provided with the
roof jack kit. Be sure to apply silicone around screws used to secure the
water heater to the floor through the drain pan for proper water tight
sealing.
CAUTION
Silicone has a strong odor and should have adequate ventilation
until cured. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for adequate
drying time.
