COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL: As pertaining to materials adjacent to or in contact with

heat-producing appliances, vent connectors, gas vents, chimneys, steam and hot water pipes and warm air ducts, shall mean materials made of or surfaced with wood, compressed paper, plant fibers or other materials that are capable of being ignited and burned. Such material shall be considered combustible even though flame-proofed, fire-retardant treated or plastered.

CORROSIVE ATMOSPHERES

NOTICE: The water heater or intake air supply should not be installed near an air supply containing halogenated hydrocarbons

or near swimming pool chemicals.

MOUNTING THE WATER HEATER

CAUTION: Reinforcement of the wall is required in case the wall is not strong enough to hold the water heater. Do not mount to drywall unless mounting screws are secured in wall studs.

Make sure the location of the water heater allows for easy access and operation.

Wall studs should be utilized when mounting the water heater to the wall. On masonry or concrete wall, use concrete anchors or lag bolts.

MOUNTING THE WATER HEATER (cont.)

1Identify the installation location and confirm that the installation will meet all required clearances. Use mounting template to locate screw or anchor locations.

2Securely attach the water heater to the wall using the brackets located at the top and bottom of the water heater.

3Ensure that the attachment strength

is sufficient to support the weight. Refer to the weight of the water heater in

the Specification Guidelines. Four mounting screws with 200 lb tensile load capacity are required at a minimum.

Wall installation brackets

4ON WOOD OR SIDING: When attaching the unit to wood or siding, mount 2 boards suitable for anchoring to wall studs, between the studs. You can do this before the wall has been finished.

NOTE: Do not hang the unit on wood or siding only. The unit must be secured to studs.

2434

NOTE: Screws provided must fasten securely and directly into wood. If screws go through siding or insulation and do not fully engage, installer must supply correct screws.
