Wall Hanging Installation

Wall Hanging Installation

For a wall mount installation, use TK-BK01 brackets to securely attach the T-K2 to the wall.

Locate the heater as desired, but follow all applicable local codes, as well as the indoor or outdoor clearances that apply to the installation.

Standing Installation

If the unit is to be installed standing on a surface, adjust the legs so that the unit stands securely and is level (legs can be adjusted up to 1”).

Do not install the unit standing directly on a

combustible surface. Use a 3” non- combustible base.

Use the included L brackets to connect the unit to a wall to ensure that it does not fall over. These brackets will maintain the required 1” clearance between the back of the unit and a combustible surface.

Outdoor Installation

Follow all local codes, or in the absence of local codes, follow the codes for Installation of Gas Burning Appliances; National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z221.23 in USA or CAN/CGA B149.1 or .2 in Canada.

For outdoor installation, purchase a TK-TV04 and install on the top of the unit.

Set the dipswitches for an outdoor installation (See pgs. 21-22).

Locate the water heater in an open, unroofed area, and maintain the following minimum

clearances from combustible and noncombustible materials.
