must be filled with water. Water must flow from the hot J water faucet before turning "ON" gas to the water

Jheater.

I

OWater at the draft hood is water vapor which has con- densed out of the combustion products. This is caused by

a problem in the vent. Contact the Sears Service Center.

O*Condensation may be seen on pipes in humid weather or pipe connections may be leaking.

Q'The

primary anode rod fitting may be leaking.

Small amounts of water from temperature-pressure relief valve may be due to thermal expansion or high water

pressure in your area.

O'The temperarure-pressure relief valve may be leaking at the tank fitting.

QWater from a drain valve may be due to the valve opened slightly.

Q'The

drain valve may be leaking at the tank fitting.

Combustion products contain water vapor which can condense on the cooler surfaces of the tank. Droplets

form and drip into the fire or run on the floor. This is

common at the time of startup after installation and when incoming water is cold.

0 Water in the water heater bottom or on the floor may be

from condensation, loose connections, or the relief valve. DO NOT replace the water heater until a full inspection of all possible water sources is made and necessary correc- tive steps taken. Leakage from other appliances, water lines, or ground seepage should also be checked.

NOTE: To check where threaded portion enters tank, insert cotton swab between jacket opening and fitting. If cotton is wet, follow "Draining" instructions in the "Service and Adjustment" section and then remove fitting. Put pipe dope or teflon tape on the threads

and replace. Then follow "Filling the Water Heater" instructions in the "Installation Instructions" section.
