A. Improper Combustion Approximate Time / Temperature Relationships in Scalds Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilating air. Adequate air is necessary for safe operation. Obstructing the flow of combustion or ventilating air could result in property damage, serious personal injury, or death. B. Gas Should overheating or gas supply fail to shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the water heater. C.
alkaline. A neutral pH (around 7) is desirable for most potable water applications. Corrosion damage and tank failures resulting from water pH levels of lower than 6 or higher than 8 ARE NOT covered by warranty. The ideal pH range for water used in a water heater is 7.2 to 7.8. Total Dissolved Solids Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) is a measurement of all minerals and solids dissolved in a water sample. The concentration of TDS is usually expressed in parts per million (ppm).

DO NOT modify the flue damper / drafthood assembly in any way. DO NOT turn on the electrical power to the water heater until the flue damper / drafthood assembly is installed. Failure to follow these instructions can result in property damage, personal injury, or death. When installing the water heater, make sure the location allows clear viewing of the flue damper. When the damper is in the open position, the paddle is perpendicular to the water heater.

3. RE-INSPECTION OF T&P RELIEF VALVES: T&P valves should be inspected AT LEAST ONCE EVERY THREE YEARS, and replaced if necessary, by a licensed plumbing contractor or qualified service technician to ensure that the product has not been affected by corrosive water conditions and to ensure that the valve and discharge line have not been altered or tampered with illegally. Certain naturally occuring conditions may corrode the valve and its components over time, rendering the valve inoperative.
The water heater and its gas connection must be leak tested before placing the appliance into operation. To leak test the system: 1. Turn on the manual gas shut-off valve near the water heater. 2. Use a soapy water solution to test all connections and fittings for leaks. Bubbles indicate a gas leak. 3. Correct all leaks. Make sure that the inlet pressure to the water heater does not exceed 14 inches of water column (3.5 kPa) for natural gases. Pressures in excess of ½ pound per square inch (3.
Settings on the Power Venter Voltage: 24 Volts Pre-Purge: 0 sec. Post-Purge: 2 min. If the water heater requires servicing, label all wires prior to disconnecting. Verify all wiring connections before relighting the water heater. Wiring errors can result in property damage, personal injury, or death. Damages to this product due to improper wiring ARE NOT covered under warranty. Figure 15 - Wiring the Power Venter Figure 16 - Wiring Detail LP-436 Rev. 5.2.

Location Complete Is the water heater located close to the chimney or the gas vent and the main use of hot water? Is the water heater protected from freezing temperatures? Has a drain pan been installed and piped to a free-flowing drain? Is the main gas valve accessible for servicing? Have clearances from combustible materials been observed? Combustion and Ventilation Air Supply Complete Is the area around the water heater clean and properly ventilated? Is the fresh air supply free of corrosive eleme
B. Drafthood Operation It is important to check that the ventilation system is working properly once the water heater main burner has been lit. Wait 10 minutes after lighting the burner. Then introduce a match or candle around the opening of the drafthood. If the flame is drawn towards the opening, this indicates proper ventilation. If the flame flutters or is blown out, combustion gases are escaping from the drafthood opening.
To Control Sediment Build-Up: 1. Drain a pail of water through the drain valve once a month. 2. Every 3 months, use the following procedure to clean out Hydrogen gas can be produced in a hot water system that has the bottom of the water heater through the cleanout hole not been used for a long period of time (generally 2 weeks or opening: more). HYDROGEN GAS IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE. It is highly • Drain out the water. (Refer to Draining the Water Heater).
