5.Annually remove the main burner rack assembly to clean orifices and related parts of any dirt or other foreign material. Inspect the burner ports for obstructions or debris and clean with a wire brush, vacuum, or use a mild detergent solution to clean as needed. NOTE: It is imperative for proper operation of the water heater that the main burner rack be replaced in the original location.

WARNING

When lifting lever of the combination temperature and pressure relief valve, hot water will be released under pressure. Be careful that any released water does not result in bodily injury or property damage.

7.At least once a year, check the combination temperature and pressure relief valve to insure that the valve has not become encrusted with lime. Lift the lever at the top of the valve several times until the valve seats properly without leaking and operates freely.

8.Monthly drain off a gallon of water to remove silt and sediment.

WARNING! THIS WATER MAY BE HOT.

9.If the combination temperature and pressure relief valve on the appliance discharges periodically, this may be due to thermal expansion in a closed water supply system. Contact the water supplier or local plumbing inspector on how to correct this situation. Do not plug the combination temperature and pressure relief valve outlet.

10.All models are equipped with a cleanout opening to aid in removal of hard water deposits from the tank bottom. If this water heater operates under hard water conditions, the following should be performed at least every 3 months: Drain the water heater. Remove the cleanout jacket cover and tank cover. When cleaning the tank, care must be taken to avoid trying to break deposits loose as this could damage the glass lining and shorten the life of the water heater. After cleaning, replace the cleanout tank cover and jacket cover, and refill with water.

11.A combination sacrificial anode rod/hot water outlet nipple has been installed to extend tank life. The anode rod should be inspected periodically (every 2 years) and replaced when necessary to prolong tank life. Water conditions in your area will influence the time interval for inspection and replacement of the anode rod. Contact the plumbing professional who installed the water heater or the manufacturer listed on the rating plate for anode replacement information. The use of a water softener may increase the speed of anode consumption. More frequent inspection of the anode is needed when using softened (or phosphate treated) water.
