1. FIRE

2. DAMAGE

3. WATER Any claims for damage or shortage in shipment must be filed immediately against the transportation company by the consignee.

High heat sources (sources generating heat 100oF / 37oC or greater, such as stove pipes, space heaters, etc.) may damage plastic components of the water heater as well as plastic vent pipe materials. Such damages ARE NOT covered by warranty. It is recommended to keep a minimum clearance of 8” from high heat sources. Observe heat source manufacturer instructions, as well as local, state, provincial, and national codes, laws, regulations and ordinances when installing this water heater and related components near high heat sources.

UNCRATING HEATER – Any claims for damage or shortage in shipment must be filed immediately against the transportation company by the consignee.

COLD WEATHER HANDLING – If the heater has been stored in a very cold location (BELOW 0oF) before installation, handle with care until the plastic components come to room temperature.

DO NOT USE THIS WATER HEATER IF ANY PART HAS BEEN UNDERWATER. Immediately call a qualified service technician. Replace any part of the control unit that has been under water.

B. WHEN SERVICING THE WATER HEATING SYSTEM

 To avoid electric shock, disconnect electrical supply before performing maintenance.  To avoid severe burns, allow heater to cool before servicing.

C. HEATER WATER

 Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds in a water heating system. Gaskets and seals in the system may

be damaged. This can result in substantial property damage.

 Do not use “homemade cures” or “heater patent medicines”. Damage to heater, substantial property damage, and/or serious

personal injury may result.

PART 2 – PREPARE THE WATER HEATER

A. SPECIFICATIONS AND PERFORMANCE RATINGS

Figure 1 – Specifications and Dimensions

B. PERFORMANCE AND SIZING GUIDELINES

Determine the amount of domestic hot water needed, then use the chart below to optimize water heater against boiler sizing.

Table 1

LP-65 Rev. 3.24.14

Page 6

Locate the water heater where any leakage from the relief valve, related piping, tank, or connections will not result in damage to surrounding areas or lower floors of the building. The water heater should be located near a floor drain, or installed in a drain pan. HTP WILL NOT be held liable for leakage damages.

This water heater must not be located near flammable liquids such as gasoline, butane, liquefied propane, adhesives, solvents, paint thinners, etc., as the controls of this water heater could ignite these vapors and cause an explosion, resulting in property damage, severe personal injury, or death.

NOTE: Above chart is based on boiler size conforming to the minimum BTU/H required to achieve first hour ratings. The mass of the boiler will affect recovery time. More boiler mass equals longer recovery time.

C. LOCATING THE WATER HEATER

This water heater is certified for indoor use only. DO NOT INSTALL OUTDOORS. Outdoor installations ARE NOT covered by warranty. Choose a location for the water heater as centralized to the piping system as possible. Also, locate the water heater and domestic

water piping where it will not be exposed to freezing temperatures. All piping should be insulated. Additionally, place the water heater so that the drain, controls, and inlets/outlets are easily accessible.

This water heater must be installed vertical on a level surface.

Figure 2

If you do not provide the minimum clearances shown, it might not be possible to service the heater without removing it from the space.

D. ANODE ROD

This water heater is equipped with a magnesium anode rod. Anode rods are sacrificial components that counteract water chemistry to minimize or eliminate tank corrosion.

The anode rod should be inspected annually and replaced as necessary to prolong tank life. Have the supply water quality professionally analyzed, as local water conditions will influence the duration for inspection and replacement of anode rod.

The use of a water softener may increase the speed of anode consumption. More frequent inspection of the anode is needed when using softened or treated water.

Water with high sulfate and/or mineral content can produce a rotten egg odor in heated water. Chlorinating the water supply may minimize this problem.

NOTE: Failure of a heat exchanger due to lime scale build-up on the heating surface, low pH or other imbalance IS NOT covered by the warranty.

LP-65 Rev. 3.24.14

Page 7

Chemical imbalance of the water supply may affect efficiency and cause severe damage to the water heater and associated equipment. HTP recommends having water quality professionally analyzed to determine whether it is necessary to install a water softener. It is important that the water chemistry on both the domestic hot water and central heating sides are checked before installing the water heater, as water quality will affect the reliability of the system. Failure of a water heater due to lime scale build-up, low pH, or other chemical imbalance IS NOT covered by the warranty.

Operating temperatures above 135oF will further accelerate the build-up of lime scale and may shorten the service life of the water heater. Failure of the water heater due to lime scale build-up on the heating surface, low pH, or other chemical imbalance IS NOT covered by the warranty.

NOTE: Do not remove the anode rod from an operating water heater. Operating the water heater without the anode rod will shorten the life of the tank and VOID the warranty.

E. WATER CHEMISTRY REQUIREMENTS

Outlined below are water quality parameters which need to be met in order for the system to operate efficiently for many years.

Water Hardness

Water hardness is mainly due to the presence of calcium and magnesium salts dissolved in water. The concentration of these salts is expressed in mg/L, ppm, or grains per gallon as a measure of relative water hardness. Grains per gallon is the common reference measurement used in the U.S. water heater industry. Hardness expressed as mg/L or ppm may be divided by 17.1 to convert to grains per gallon. Water may be classified as very soft, slightly hard, moderately hard, or hard based on its hardness number. The minerals in the water precipitate out as the water is heated and cause accelerated lime scale accumulation on a heat transfer surface. This lime scale build-up may result in premature failure of the water heater. Operating temperatures above 135oF will further accelerate the buildup of lime scale and may shorten the service life of the water heater.

Water that is classified as hard and very hard must be softened to avoid water heater failure.

If the hardness of the water exceeds the maximum level of 7 grains per gallon, water should be softened to a hardness level no lower than 5 grains per gallon. Water softened as low as 0 to 1 grain per gallon may be under-saturated with respect to calcium carbonate, resulting in water that is aggressive and corrosive.

pH of Water

pH is a measure of relative acidity, neutrality or alkalinity. Dissolved minerals and gases affect water pH. The pH scale ranges from 0 to

14. Water with a pH of 7 is considered neutral. Water with a pH lower than 7 is considered acidic. Water pH higher than 7 is considered alkaline. A neutral pH (around 7) is desirable for most potable water applications. Corrosion damage and tank failures resulting from water pH levels of lower than 6 or higher than 8 ARE NOT covered by the warranty. The ideal pH range for water used in a water heater is 7.2 to 7.8.

Total Dissolved Solids

Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) is a measurement of all minerals and solids dissolved in a water sample. The concentration of total dissolved solids is usually expressed in parts per million (ppm).

Water with a high TDS concentration will greatly accelerate lime and scale formation in the hot water system. Most high TDS concentrations precipitate out of the water when heated. This can generate a scale accumulation that will greatly reduce the service life of a water heater.

The manufacturer of the water heater has no control over water quality, especially TDS levels in your system. Total dissolved solids in excess of 2,000 ppm will accelerate lime and scale formation on the element or heat exchanger. Water heater failure due to total dissolved solids in excess of 2,000 ppm is a non-warrantable condition. Failure of a water heater due to lime scale build up IS NOT

covered by the warranty. Hardness: 7 grains

Chloride levels: 100 ppm pH levels: 6-8 TDS: 2000 ppm

LP-65 Rev. 3.24.14

Page 8

When filling the water heater, open a hot water tap to release air in the tank and piping. Failure to do so could lead to improper water heater operation.

Use two wrenches when tightening water piping at heater. Use one wrench to prevent the heater return or supply line from turning. Failure to prevent piping connections from turning could cause damage to heater components.

The water heater heat exchanger cannot be used with non-barrier radiant pipe systems. Use with closed loop boiler systems only.

Dielectric fittings must be used on water heater connections.

Exercise caution when soldering water heater connections, as outlet and inlet dip tubes are plastic.

Sodium: 20 mGL

PART 3 – HEATER PIPING

A. PLUMBING

It is mandatory that all plumbing be done in accordance with federal, local, and state plumbing codes and practices. Failure to properly install the water heater WILL VOID the warranty. It is also necessary to use both thread tape and pipe dope on all mechanical plumbing connections.

B. BOILER CONNECTIONS

Use a 1” nominal minimum pipe size when piping with zone valves or circulators. On the water heater, the boiler supply connects to the outlet of the circulator. The circulator inlet is to be connected to the “HOT

OUTLET” side of the boiler. Be sure that the arrow on the circulator is facing the correct flow direction. (See pressure drop sizing for circulator, this manual.) On the tank, the boiler return is to be connected to the return side of the boiler. The return(s) from heating loop(s) should have a flow check or swing check valve installed before the return pipe from the tank.

In a steam boiler, the tank supply must be connected to the boiler well below the minimum water level. A strainer and drain valve should be installed at the boiler for periodic draining of scale and sludge. Banging and steam bound traps will occur if the boiler water supplied to the heat exchanger has steam or is slightly above the low water cut off.

C. COLD WATER INLET

Use both thread tape and pipe dope to connect an NPT female x ¾” minimum pipe adapter.

A shut off valve between the city water supply and tank inlet is recommended for ease of service.

It may be recommended to use a back flow preventer – check local codes. If a back flow preventer or a no return valve is used, a thermal expansion tank must be installed on the cold water supply between the tank and valve. If the tank is replacing a tankless coil in the boiler, disconnect coil plumbing and use the cold inlet pipe and hot water outlet pipes for the water heater.

NOTE: DO NOT PLUG OUTLET IN TANKLESS COIL.

LP-65 Rev. 3.24.14

Page 9

Do not thread a cap or plug into the relief valve under any circumstances! Explosion and property damage, serious injury, or death may result.

To avoid water damage or scalding due to relief valve operation:

 Discharge line must be connected to relief valve outlet and run to a safe place of disposal. Terminate the discharge line in a

manner that will prevent possibility of severe burns or property damage should the relief valve discharge.

 Discharge line must be as short as possible and the same size as the valve discharge connection throughout its entire length.  Discharge line must pitch downward from the valve and terminate at least 6” above the floor drain, making discharge clearly

visible.

 The discharge line shall terminate plain, not threaded, with a material serviceable for temperatures of 375oF or greater.  Do not pipe discharge to any location where freezing could occur.  No shutoff valve may be installed between the relief valve and heater or in the discharge line. Do not plug or place any

obstruction in the discharge line.

 Test the operation of the relief valve after filling and pressurizing the system by lifting the lever. Make sure the valve

discharges freely. If the valve fails to operate correctly, immediately replace with a new properly rated relief valve.

 Test T&P valve at least once annually to ensure the waterway is clear. If valve does not operate, turn the heater “off” and call

a plumber immediately.

 Take care whenever operating relief valve to avoid scalding injury or property damage.

FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE ABOVE GUIDELINES COULD RESULT IN FAILURE OF RELIEF VALVE OPERATION, RESULTING IN POSSIBILITY OF SUBSTANTIAL PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.

D. SCALDING

This heater can deliver scalding water. Be careful whenever using hot water to avoid scalding injury. Certain appliances, such as dishwashers and automatic clothes washers may require increased water temperature. By setting the thermostat on this heater to obtain the increased water temperature required by these appliances, you may create the potential for scald injury.

To protect against injury, you should install a mixing valve in the water system. This valve will reduce point of discharge temperature by mixing cold and hot water in branch supply lines. Such valves are available from your local plumbing supplier.

Table 2 details the relationship of water temperature and time with regard to scald injury and may be used as a guide in determining the safest water temperature for your applications.

E. TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

A factory installed temperature and pressure relief valve long element, meeting the requirements for relief valves for hot water heaters ANSI Z21.22B / CSA 4.4-M99, has been installed for your safety and convenience. If servicing, make sure that the relief valve is sized to the BTU/hour capacity and storage capacity of the water heater. If the relief valve weeps, see expansion tank section for suggestions.

LP-65 Rev. 3.24.14

Page 10

Dielectric fittings must be used on water heater connections.

Due to the plastic dip tube in the cold water inlet, exercise extreme caution when soldering.

A temperature limiting or mixing valve is not entirely necessary, but recommended in installations servicing disabled or elderly persons, or children. Take extreme caution to avoid scalding when temperature limiting or mixing valves are not used.

F. HOT WATER OUTLET

Use both thread tape and pipe dope to connect an NPT male x ¾” (minimum) pipe adapter. A shut off valve between the hot water supply and tank outlet is recommended for ease of service at a later date. Use a backflow preventer specifically designed for water heater installations. This valve should be installed on the cold water fill supply line per local codes.

G. POTABLE EXPANSION TANK

A potable hot water expansion tank is required to offset heated water expansion. If there is a back flow preventer or any other type of no return or check valve on the system, a thermal expansion tank is mandatory. The expansion tank must be sized for the entire water volume of the hot water system. A weeping relief valve indicates the need for an expansion tank. See Typical Expansion Tank installation, Fig. 3, for more details.

H. PRESSURE DROP SIZING FOR CIRCULATOR

Use the chart below to properly calculate circulator flow rate for the installation. The flow chart below represents the pipe run, water heater, and heat exchanger ONLY and does not include any flow checks, zone valves, or friction loss through the boiler.

PART 4 – HEATER CONTROL AND WIRING

A. CONTROL

A surface mounted control is provided and mounted inside of the control access compartment. There is an insulation blanket under the control access cover to ensure accurate readings of water temperature. The control is factory set at 120oF for your safety (see scald danger warning below). The differential is fixed at 3o to 5o (not adjustable).

B. WIRING

Wiring is to be done in accordance with all applicable local and state codes. Turn off all power related to the boiler starting and wiring procedures. It is recommended that a disconnect switch be installed between the boiler control and water heater.

PART 5 – OPERATING THE HEATER

Boiler high limit should be at least 20oF higher than the heater temperature. Set the low limit of the boiler control at the minimum setting – this will call the burner on to satisfy the tank control.

We recommend a water heater temperature setting of 120oF. However, a lower temperature setting may be required to comply with local and state codes for normal operation. The differential is fixed at 3 o to 5o. You may prefer a setting of either higher or lower water temperature. A mixing valve in conjunction with a high temperature setting may be used for high demand applications (spas, hot tubs, whirlpools).

PART 6 – MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Periodic maintenance should be performed by a qualified service technician to assure that all the equipment is operating safely and efficiently. The owner should make necessary arrangements with a qualified heating contractor for periodic maintenance of the heater. Installer must also inform the owner that the lack of proper care and maintenance of the heater may result in a hazardous condition.
