Rheem Gas Heavy Duty Water Heater Models 265 Litre and 275 Litre

COMMISSIONING

GAS INLET PRESSURE

IMPORTANT – CHECK the gas supply pressure at the inlet to the water heater with the water heater and all other gas burning appliances in the premises operating (burners alight). The minimum gas supply pressures are:

Natural Gas	1.13 kPa	Propane	2.75 kPa
Town / TLP	0.75 kPa	Butane	2.75 kPa

If this minimum cannot be achieved, it may indicate the meter or the gas line to the water heater is undersized. It is important to ensure that an adequate gas supply pressure is available to the water heater when other gas burning appliances, on the same gas supply, are operating.

TO TURN OFF THE WATER HEATER

If it is necessary to turn off the water heater on completion of the installation, such as on a building site or where the premises is vacant, then:

•Switch off the electrical supply at the isolating switch to the water heater(s).

•Close the gas isolation valve(s) at the inlet to the gas control(s).

•Close the cold water isolation valve on the cold water line to the water heater(s) to shut down the entire system, or;

•Close the isolation valves on the cold and hot water branches to shut down an individual water heater in a bank.
