Breathing Hazard - Carbon Monoxide Gas

High altitude orifice must be installed for operation above 7,700 feet (2,347 m].

Contact a qualified installer or service agency.

Breathing carbon monoxide can cause brain damage or death. Always read and understand instruction manual.

Water heaters covered in this manual have been tested and approved for installation at elevations up to 7,700 feet (2,347 m) above sea level. For installation above 7,700 feet (2,347 m), the water heater's Btu input should be reduced at the rate of 4 percent for each 1,0g0 feet (305 m) above sea level which

requires replacement of the burner orifice in accordance with

the National Fuel Gas CodeANSI Z223.1/NFPA54. Contact your local gas supplier for further information.

Failure to replace the standard orifice with the proper high

altitude orifice when installed at elevations above 7,700 feet (2,347m) could result in improper and inefficient operation of

the appliance, producing carbon monoxide gas in excess of the safe limits. This could result in serious injury or death. Contact your local gas supplier for any specific changes that may be required in your area.

Fire and Explosion Hazard

o Use joint compound or tape compatible with propane.

= Leak test before operating heater.

-Disconnectgas piping and shut-off valve before pressure testing system.

Use pipe joint compound or teflon tape marked as being resistant to the action of petroleum (Propane [L.R]) gases.

The appliance and its gas connection must be leak tested before placing the appliance in operation.

The appliance and its individual shutoff valve shall be

disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any

pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of

1/2 pound per square inch (3.5kPa). It shall be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 pound per square inch (3.5kPa).

Connecting the gas piping to the gas control valve of the water

heater can be accomplished by either of the two methods shown in Figures 19 and 20.

Sediment Traps

Fire and Explosion Hazard

Contaminants in gas lines can causefire or explosion.

Clean all gas piping before installation.

Install drip leg in accordance with NFPA 54.

Contaminants in the gas lines may cause improper operation of

the gas control valve that may result in fire or explosion. Before attaching the gas line be sure that all gas pipe is clean on the inside. To trap any dirt or foreign material in the gas supply line,

a drip leg (sometimes called a sediment trap) must be

incorporated in the piping. The drip leg must be readily

accessible, install in accordance with the Gas Piping section. Refer to the current edition of the National Fuel Gas Code,

ANSi Z223.1iNFPA 54.

A sediment trap shall be installed as close to the inlet of the water heater as practical at the time of water heater installation. The sediment trap shall be either a tee fitting with a capped nipple in the bottom outlet or other device recognized as an effective sediment trap. If a tee fitting is used, it shall be installed

in conformance with one of the methods of installation, shown in Figures 19 and 20.
