INSTALLER’S INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Gas Piping Notes

1)A manual gas control valve must be placed upon the gas inlet connection to the Continuum 2424WC before it is connected to the gas line. A union can be used on the connection of the Continuum for the future servicing or disconnection of the unit.

2)Check the type of gas and the gas inlet pressure before connecting the Continuum 2424WC. If the Continuum 2424WC is not of the gas type that the building is sup- plied with, DO NOT connect the water heater. Contact the dealer for the proper unit to match the gas type.

3)Minimum and Maximum Gas pressures are listed below:

*Minimum value is for input adjustment

Natural Gas:

Minimum 7" WC

Propane Gas: Minimum 10"WC

 

Maximum 10.5" WC

Maximum 14" WC

WARNING: Conversion of this unit from natural gas to propane or propane to natural gas CANNOT be done in the field.

4)Always use approved connectors to connect the unit to the gas line. Always purge the gas line of any debris before connection to the water heater.

5)The Continuum 2424WC must be leak tested before it is placed into operation.

6)After completion of gas pipe connections, all joints including the heater must be checked for gas-tightness by means of leak detector solution, soap and water, or an equivalent nonflammable solution, as applicable. Caution: Since some leak test solutions, including soap and water, may cause corrosion or stress cracking, the piping must be rinsed with water after testing, unless it has been determined that the leak solution is non-corrosive.

7)The Continuum 2424WC and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system when pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or greater than 1/2 psi.

8)The Continuum 2424WC must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing it's individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures less than 1/2 psi.

9)The Continuum 2424WC's Installation location must provide adequate Combustion and Ventilation airflow.
