Additional Recommended

Components

1.Shut-off Valves – Allows isolation of water heater from domestic water system and/or boiler system during service.

2.Unions – Allows water heater movement during service if adequate clearance cannot be provided.

3.Thermal Expansion Tank – If the water heater is installed in a closed water supply system, such as one having a back-flow preventer in the cold water line, provide thermal expansion control. Contact the water supplier or local plumbing inspector for additional information

WARNING

Do not plug the inlet and outlet tappings of tankless heater left installed in the boiler.

MOVE THE WATER HEATER TO A PERMANENT POSITION BY SLIDING OR WALKING.

WATER CONNECTIONS

WARNING

FAILURE TO INSTALL AND MAINTAIN A NEW, LISTED TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE WILL RELEASE THE MANUFACTURER FROM ANY CLAIM WHICH MIGHT RESULT FROM EXCESSIVE TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURES.

Hydrogen gas can be produced in an operating water heater that has not had water drawn from the tank for a long period of time. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE. To prevent the possibility of injury under these conditions, we recommend the hot water faucet be opened for several minutes at the kitchen sink before you use any electrical appliance that is connected to the hot water system. If hydrogen is present, there will be an unusual sound such as air escaping through the pipes as hot water begins to flow. Do not smoke or have open flame near the faucet at the time it is open.

Keep clear of the temperature and pressure relief valve discharge line outlet. The discharge may be hot enough to cause scald injury. The water is under pressure and may splash.

CAUTION

If sweat fittings are to be used, DO NOT apply heat to the nipples on top of the water heater. Sweat the tubing to the adapter before fitting the adapter to the water connections. It is imperative that heat is not applied to the nipples containing a plastic liner.

WARNING

Temperature and pressure relief valve discharge piping must be piped near the floor to eliminate potential of severe burns. Do not pipe in any area where freezing could occur. Do not install any shut- off valves, plugs or caps to the temperature and pressure relief valve or piping.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR

POTABLE CONNECTIONS

1. BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THE INSTALLATION, CLOSE THE MAIN WATER SUPPLY VALVE. After shutting off the main water supply, open a faucet to relieve the water line pressure to prevent any water from leaking out of the pipes while making the water connections to the water heater. After the pressure has been relieved, close the faucet. The COLD water inlet and HOT water outlet are identified on the top of the water heater. Make the proper plumbing connections between the water heater and the plumbing system to the house. Install a shut-off valve in the cold water supply line.

2.If this water heater is installed in a closed water supply system, such as one having a back-flow preventer in the cold water supply, provisions must be made to control thermal expansion. DO NOT operate this water heater in a closed system without provisions for controlling thermal expansion. Warranties do not cover damages from thermal expansions such as pressure bulges and/or deformities. A properly sized expansion tank will alleviate most problems. Your water supplier or local plumbing inspector should be contacted on how to control this situation.

3.After installation of the water lines, open the main water supply valve and fill the water heater. While the water heater is filling, open several hot water faucets to allow air to escape from the water system. When steady streams of water flow through the faucets, close them and check all water connections for possible leaks.
