PRE-INSTALLATION
UNPACKING
INSPECT SHIPMENT carefully for any signs of damage. If damage is
noted, DO NOT install the product. Contact the shipper or
manufacturer. All equipment is carefully manufactured, inspected, and
packed. Our responsibility ceases upon delivery of the packaged water
heater to the carrier in good condition.
NOTE: Any claims for damage or shortage in shipment must be
filed immediately against the carrier by the consignee.
This water heater MUST be installed indoors out of the wind
and weather.
WARNING
Install a discharge line so that water discharged from the
temperature and pressure relief valve will exit within six (6) inches
above, or any distance below, the structural floor and cannot
contact any live electrical part. The discharge line is to be installed
to allow for complete drainage of both the temperature and
pressure relief valve and the discharge line. The discharge opening
must not be subjected to blockage or freezing. DO NOT thread,
plug, or cap the discharge line. It is recommended that a minimum
clearance of four (4) inches be provided on the side of the water
heater for servicing and maintenance of the combination
temperature and pressure relief valve.
DO NOT place a valve between the combination temperature
and pressure relief valve and the tank.
WARNING
This product contains one or more chemicals known to the
