WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause serious injury or property damage. Refer to this manual. For assistance or additional information, consult a qualified installer or service agency.
!
WARNING
Do not install on combustible flooring. Install in accordance with all local codes. In the absence of local codes, refer to NFPA 54 or ANSI Z21.10.3.
!
CAUTION
The recommended temperature for normal residential use is 120°F. The dial on the aquastat does not always reflect the out-coming water temperature and it could occasionally exceed 120°F. Variation in out-coming temperature could be based on factors including but not limited to usage patterns and type of installation. Test water at the tap nearest to the water heater. See page 32 for measuring the out-coming water temperature.
!
WARNING
Hotter water increases the risk of scald injury. Before adjusting the water temperature setting, read this instruction manual. Temperatures at which injury occurs vary with the person’s age and the length of exposure. The slower reaction time of children, elderly or physically or mentally challenged persons increases the scalding hazard to them. It is recommended that lower water tempera­tures be used where these exposure hazards exist. Households with small children or invalids may require a temperature setting less than 120°F to prevent accidental contact with hot water. To
produce less than 120°F, use point-of-use temperature limiting devices.
If higher water temperature is needed in part of the water system, automatic temperature limiting devices must be used on all lines to water taps.
!
WARNING
Water heater blankets may restrict air flow to the water heater and cause fire, asphyxiation, personal injury or death.

SECTION II: GENERAL INFORMATION
WHEN YOU RECEIVE YOUR NEW WATER HEATER
Check the new equipment to see if all components are in good condition. If damage is observed or parts appear to be missing, contact your wholesaler.
WATER TREATMENT/FILTRATION
In areas where poor water conditions are suspected (i.e. lime, iron, and other minerals), it is essential that the water be tested and appropriate action taken to prevent damage to the water heater and ensure the quality of the water.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The water heater is equipped with a combination gas valve, ignition control, and thermostat. For domestic hot water, the proper temperature setting is 120°F (i.e. “WARM” setting on control). For commercial applications, the maximum approved temperature setting is 180°F (i.e. “F” setting on control).
A built-in, automatic reset Energy Cut-Off (ECO) is standard on all models. In the event that the water temperature becomes excessive (195°F), the ECO will shut off all gas to the water heater. If the ECO switch opens, it will automatically reset (or close) when the water temperature drops to 120°F or below. The water heater thermostat will automatically reset following a three minute standby period once the ECO switch closes.
The thermostat is factory set at 120°F. See Figure 21 for temperature and display settings. If hotter water is required a tempering device or anti-scald device must be installed at the domestic hot water outlet of the heater or at the point of use. Table 3 details the approximate relationship of water temperature and time with regard to scald injury. It is important for the user to understand the necessity of tempering or anti-scald devices when using hotter water in domestic water heating systems.
!
CAUTION: Hot water in excess of 120°F can cause scalding!
Bock recommends a tempering valve or anti-scald valve be installed and used according to the manufacturer’s directions to prevent scalding. Many state and local codes now require installation of these devices. Point of use temperature may be hotter than the setting on the water heater thermostat. The tempering valve or anti-scald valve will ensure potable water temperatures at the desired set point with a higher degree of accuracy.

SECTION II: GENERAL INFORMATION (cont.)
INTERNAL HEAT EXCHANGER COIL
The water heater contains an internal heat exchanger coil which can be used in conjunction with a radiant (space) heating application. The installation of this water heater, when serving a space heating application, must be in accordance with local codes. The space heating application must be designed as a closed loop system. A closed loop system does not introduce fresh water into the heating loop under normal conditions.
!
CAUTION
Do not connect the internal coil heat exchanger to an open loop system.
See Section I: Specifications, Table 2 for heat exchanger performance data.
ANODE RODS
The anode rod is used as a sacrificial element within the volume of the storage tank. The purpose of the magnesium anode rod is to protect the inside of the tank against corrosion. Anode rods should be inspected twice in the first year and at least yearly once a time interval for inspection has been developed. Water conditions can influence the consumption rate of the anode rods. Please see the Maintenance section of this manual for instructions on how to change the anode rods.
!
CAUTION
Hydrogen gas is produced in a hot water system served by the heater that has not been used for a long period of time (2 weeks or more). Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable. To reduce the risk of injury under these conditions, it is recommended that the hot water faucet be opened for several minutes at the kitchen sink before using any electrical appliance connected to the hot water system. When hydrogen is present, there will probably be an unusual sound such as air escaping through the pipe as the water begins to flow. There should be no smoking or open flame near the faucet at the time it is open.
TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE (T&P)
!
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of excessive pressures and temperatures in this water heater, install temperature and pressure protective equipment required by local codes and no less than a combination temperature and pressure relief valve certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory that maintains periodic inspection of production of listed equipment or materials, as meeting the requirements for Relief Valves and Automatic Gas Shutoff Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22. This valve must be marked with a maximum set pressure not to exceed the marked maximum working pressure of the water heater. Install the valve in an opening provided and marked for this purpose in the water heater, and orient it or provide tubing so that any discharge from the valve exits only within 6 inches above, or at any distance below, the structural floor, and does not contact any live electrical part. The discharge opening must not be blocked or reduced in size under any circumstances.
Scalding injury and/or water damage can occur from either the manual lifting of the lever or the normal operation of the T&P valve. If it is not piped to a proper drain. If the valve fails to flow water or reseat, call your plumber.
The T&P valve is factory installed. A discharge drain tube must be installed (responsibility of the installer) and shall terminate plain, not threaded, 6 inches above the floor drain. The drain tube material must be approved for temperatures of 120oF or greater and a pressure of 150 PSI or greater.

CAUTION
SECTION II: GENERAL INFORMATION (cont.)
BACKFLOW PREVENTER (CLOSED SYSTEM)
Some local municipal codes and ordinances require the use of these devices on potable (domestic) water lines. Where backflow preventers, check valves, or pressure regulating valves are required, it will be necessary to install a thermal expansion tank (designed for use with potable water) in order to prevent pressure build up in the water heater and associated piping, which could cause the T&P valve to discharge. Follow the expansion tank manufacturer’s recommendations when selecting a tank for your hot water system. The expansion tank pressure shall equal the water heater system pressure prior to initial warm up.
Note: Working pressure of the water heater is 150 PSI. Do not exceed 150 PSI.
CONDENSATION
In some installations condensation will occur in the venting (exhaust) system. It is important to not allow condensate to collect around mechanical components and bare metal parts on the water heater. Therefore, if condensation occurs in the venting system it must be routed to a proper area for drainage. Horizontal sections of the vent system shall slope downward away from the water heater a minimum of 1/8" per foot. When downward sloping of the vent system is not possible or a vertical vent arrangement is used, the condensate drain kit must be installed. See Section IV: Installation / Vent and Combustion Air Intake / Condensate Drain Kit for installation details.
HIGH ALTITUDE
Contact Bock Water Heaters for installations at altitudes greater than 2,000 feet above sea level.
SECTION III: PRE-INSTALLATION
LOCATION
This water heater must be located in an area where leakage of the tank, water line connections, or the temperature and pressure relief valve will not result in damage to the area adjacent to the water heater or to lower floors of the structure. When such location cannot be avoided, a suitable drain pan must be installed under the water heater. The drain pan depth must be suitable for draining and collecting water. The drain pan can be purchased from your plumbing professional. The drain pan must be piped to an adequate drain and all drain piping must be at least 0.75” in diameter and pitched for proper drainage.
DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable, combustible, or corrosive vapors and/or liquids in the vicinity of the water heater or any other appliance.
!
CAUTION
!
CAUTION
IF YOU SMELL GAS:
• DO NOT try to light any appliance.
• DO NOT touch any electric switch; do not use any telephone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a telephone in another building. Follow your gas supplier’s instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.
DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE UNTIL THE LEAKAGE IS CORRECTED!
Page 7
SECTION III: PRE-INSTALLATION (cont.)
!
CAUTION
Do not drop water heater or lay heater down on its side. Move the water heater into position by sliding or using an appropriately sized hand truck.
!
CAUTION
If the water heater is installed directly on carpeting, the water heater shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending beyond the full width and depth of the water heater by at least 3 inches (76.2 mm) in any direction or, if the water heater is installed in an alcove or closet, the entire floor shall be covered by the panel. The panel must be strong enough to carry the weight of the heater when full of water.
NOTE: Locate the heater so it is not subject to physical damage from moving vehicles or flooding. Do not locate the water heater in a room where swimming pool chemicals or large quantities of water softener salt are kept. Installing a water heater in this environment will result in premature failure of tank and burner components due to corrosion caused by these elements diffusing into the air.
The water heater can be installed on combustible or non-combustible flooring. Maintain clearances specified in this manual and in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code (NFPA 54, ANSI Z223.1) unless otherwise directed by state and local code requirements. Locate the water heater such that plastic vent pipe lengths and the number of connection fittings are minimized.
Minimum clearances from combustible construction are:

COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR
The water heater can be installed to utilize combustion air from either inside or outside the building. Refer to "Section IV: Installation" for detailed venting specifications. If indoor air is used for combustion air it is imperative that the room has an adequate air supply. Inadequate air supplies may lead to unsafe levels of carbon monoxide (CO), condensation of flue gases, and excessive levels of soot. See NFPA 54 or the discussions of "Unconfined Space" and "Confined Space" below. In addition, poor ventilation will also result in hot spots around the heater. Temperatures over 90°F near the water heater generally indicate a lack of ventilation.
Page 8
SECTION III: PRE-INSTALLATION (cont.)
UNCONFINED SPACE
Unconfined space is defined by NFPA 54 as a space with a volume greater than 50 cubic feet (during typical use) per 1000 BTUH of the total combined input of all fuel burning appliances in the space. Rooms leading directly to the installation space through doors that cannot be closed can be considered part of the space. Exception: Buildings with full vapor barriers, tight
doors and windows or air infiltration rates of less than 0.35 air changes per hour will be considered a confined space and require additional air supplies.
CONFINED SPACE
Confined space is defined by NFPA 54 as a space with a volume less than 50 cubic feet (during typical use) per 1000 BTUH of the total combined input of all fuel burning appliances in the space. Buildings or rooms of unusually tight construction are also considered a confined space. See “Unconfined Space: Exception”.
When installing fuel burning appliances in a confined space, air must be supplied to that space from either inside or outside of the building as conditions allow.
A. Inside Air Supply: A confined space shall be provided with two permanent openings; one within 12 inches of the top and one within 12 inches of the bottom of the enclosure. These openings shall lead directly to room(s) of sufficient volume so that the combined volume of all the space meets the criteria for unconfined space. Each opening shall have a minimum free area of 1 square inch per 1000 Btu/hr of the combined total input of all fuel burning appliances in the space. Each opening shall have an area of not less than 100 square inches or a minimum dimension of not less than 3 inches.
B. Outside Air Supply: Confined spaces shall be provided with two permanent openings; one within 12 inches of the top and one within 12 inches of the bottom of the enclosure. These openings shall communicate directly, or by ducts, with the outdoors or spaces that communicate with the outdoors.
1.) Leading directly to the outside or through vertical ducts: Each opening shall have a minimum free area of one square inch per 4000 Btu/hr of total input rating of all equipment in the enclosure.
2.) Leading to outside through horizontal ducts: Each opening shall have a minimum free area of one square inch per 2000 Btu/hr of total input rating of all equipment in the enclosure. Note: All ducts shall have the same cross sectional area as the free area of each opening to which they connect. The minimum dimensions of all ducts shall not be less than three inches. Powered combustion air supplies are also commercially available and may be used.
LOUVERS & GRILLES
In calculating the free area of an opening, consideration must be given to the blocking effects of louvers or grilles protecting the opening. Any screens used must be no finer than1⁄4 inch mesh. If the free area of a louver or grille is known, this should be used in calculating the size of opening required. If free area is unknown, it may be assumed that wood louvers will have 20 to 25% free area and metal louvers and grilles will have 60 to 75% free area. Louvers and grilles should be fixed in the open position or interlocked with the equipment so that they open automatically during equipment operation.

SECTION IV: INSTALLATION
VENT & COMBUSTION AIR INTAKE
!
DANGER Failure to properly install the vent and combustion air intake system as outlined in this manual can result in unsafe operation of the water heater. To avoid the risk of fire, explosion, or asphyxiation from carbon monoxide, never operate this water heater unless it is properly vented and has adequate air supply for combustion and dilution of flue gas. Be sure to inspect the system for proper installation at initial start-up; and at least annually thereafter. See the Maintenance section for more information.
The water heater venting and combustion air intake can be installed as a power direct vent system (combustion air from outside the building) or power vent system (combustion air from inside the building). Vertical or horizontal (side-wall) configura­tions may be used with a two-pipe or concentric vent termination.
Note: If air from inside the building will be used for combustion air, the require­ments in Section III, "Unconfined Space" must be met.
The water heater is supplied with a rubber coupling (with clamps) that connects to the blower assembly outlet. The air intake piping is preassembled to route dilution air to the blower assembly and combustion air to the burner chamber. All vent length measure­ments specified in this manual are in addition to the preassembled piping supplied with the water heater. Equivalent pipe run lengths shall not be greater than the maximum lengths (or less than minimums) given in Tables 4 and 5.
Note: DO NOT connect the water heater to an existing vent or chimney. It must be vented separately from all other appliances.
The following materials are approved for use as the vent and combustion air intake piping:
• PVC (DWV, ASTM-D2665 or CSA B181.2)
• PVC (Schedule 40, ASTM-D1785 or CSA B137.3)
• PVC (SDR Series, ASTM-D2241 or CSA B137.3)
• CPVC (Schedule 40, ASTM-F441 or CSA B137.3)
• CPVC (SDR Series, ASTM-F442)
• ABS (Schedule 40, DWV, ASTM-D2661 or CSA B181.1)
In Canada, check local codes to ensure that SDR series is approved for use. SDR is not approved for all installations in Canada.
The following materials are approved for use for the fittings in the vent and combustion air intake systems:
• PVC (Schedule 40 DWV, ASTM D2665)
• CPVC (Schedule 40, ASTM F438)
• ABS (Schedule 40 DWV, ASTM D2661)
Please contact Bock Water Heaters for questions regarding materials that are not listed above.

SECTION IV: INSTALLATION (cont.)
VENT & COMBUSTION AIR INTAKE (cont.)
Installations in Canada must conform to the requirements of CSA B149 code. Plastic vent systems must be assembled with pipe, fittings, cements, and primers listed to ULC S636. Components of this listed system shall not be interchanged with other vent systems or unlisted pipe/fittings. In Canada, the primer and cement must be of the same manufacturer as the vent system; do not mix primers and cements from one manufacturer with a vent system from a different manufacturer. The supplied plastic pipe/fittings are certified as part of the water heater.
Minimum and Maximum System Lengths
The water heater should be located such that plastic vent pipe lengths and the number of connection fittings are minimized. Minimum and maximum equivalent pipe lengths for the vent and combustion air intake systems are given in Tables 4 and 5. Either 3 in. or 4 in. plastic piping may be used. The water heater is provided with fittings that readily adapt to 3 in. plastic pipe. DO NOT use less than 3 in. diameter plastic pipe and DO NOT use unequal sizes except as shown to increase from 3 in. to 4 in. diameter at the point of connection to the water heater.
NOTICE
NOTE: The equivalent straight pipe length of a 90°, 1/4 inch standard bend elbow and a 45°, 1/8 inch standard bend elbow is 5 feet and 2.5 feet, respectively. The concentric vent termination is equivalent to 10 feet of straight pipe. DO NOT use short bend elbows.
NOTE: Elbows used as termination fittings must be included when determining the total number of elbows.
