Periodic Maintenance (cont’d)

Housekeeping

Vacuum around base of water heater for dust, dirt, and lint on a regular basis.

WARNING

INSTALLED IN SUITABLE AREA: To insure sufficient venti- lation and combustion air supply, proper clearances from the water heater must be maintained. See “Locating the New Water Heater” section. Combustible materials such as cloth- ing, cleaning materials, or flammable liquids, etc. must not be placed against or adjacent to the water heater which can cause a fire.

Oiling Instructions

Oil Fasco motor only every 12 months with 6 drops of SAE 20 motor oil.

Temperature-Pressure Relief Valve Operation

The temperature-pressure relief valve must be manually operated at least once a year.

TEMPERATURE-PRESSURE

RELIEF VALVE

Draining

The water heater should be drained if being shut down dur- ing freezing temperatures. Also periodic draining and clean- ing of sediment from the tank may be necessary.

1.Turn the gas control knob to the “OFF” position.

2.CLOSE the cold water inlet valve to the water heater.

3.OPEN a nearby hot water faucet and leave open to allow for draining.

4.Connect a hose to the drain valve and terminate to an adequate drain.

5.OPEN the water heater drain valve to allow for tank draining.

NOTE: If the water heater is going to be shut down and drained for an extended period, the drain valve should be left open with hose connected allowing water to ter- minate to an adequate drain.

6.Close the drain valve.

7.Follow instructions in the “Filling The Water Heater” section.

8.Follow the operating instructions in the “Operation” sec- tion to restart the water heater.

Service

If a condition persists or you are uncertain about the oper- ation of the water heater, let a qualified person check it out. Call the local utility and/or plumbing contractor.

DISCHARGE PIPE

WARNING

When checking the temperature-pressure relief valve operation, make sure that (1) no one is in front of or around the outlet of the temperature-pressure relief valve discharge line, and (2) that the water manually discharged will not cause any property damage because the water may be extremely hot.

If after manually operating the valve, it fails to complete- ly reset and continues to release water, immediately close the cold water inlet to the water heater, follow the drain- ing instructions, and replace the temperature-pressure relief valve with a new one.

Failure to install and maintain a new properly listed temperature- pressure relief valve will release the manufacturer from any claim which might result from excessive temperature or pressure.

WARNING

If the temperature-pressure relief valve on the appliance weeps or discharges periodically, this may be due to thermal expansion. Your water heater may have a check valve installed in the water line or a water meter with a check valve. Consult the water supplier and/or plumb- ing contractor for further information. Do not plug the temperature-pressure relief valve.
