QUICK REFERENCE INSTALLATION GUIDE
The quick reference illustrations show the installation of two GX200P water heaters connected together
with a storage tank. Installation of a single unit or up to five units is basically the same. When installing multiple units, refer to the Multiple Units section for additional information.
1. Select a location. Note that the piping can be confi gured to enter or exit the unit from either the left or right side, as viewed from the front.
2. Mount the water heater(s) to the wall.
a.
Attach two 2x4 mounting blocks (at least 23” for a single unit or 46” long for two units) to the wall. The uppermost mounting boards should be at the desired height for the top of the unit.
IH-80
e. Hang the unit on the mounting bracket. If multiple
units are installed, the spacing between the units should be approximately 6”.
IH-81
3. Install the gas lines, as shown in the illustration.
b.
Attach a second mounting block 14 (center to center) below the upper mounting block.
c. Attach metal mounting bracket(s) to the upper
mounting block approximately 3” on either side of the center and 1/2” down from the top of the mounting block.
d.
Adjust and tigthen the bottom bracket to the units so that the unit to hangs vertically on the wall.
IH-82
a. Temporarily place a short section of 3” schedule
40 PVC pipe on one of the air inlets in order to judge clearance allowances as the gas piping is assembled.

PREPARATION BEFORE INSTALLATION
Selecting an Installation Site
IMPORTANT When installing this water heater, follow all local
building codes and the current edition of the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54) in the USA or National Gas and Propane Installation Code (CAN/CGA B149.1) in Canada, when installing this product.
1. Select an interior location for the installation. Each installation is unique; therefore, take the time to fi nd the best location for the water heater.
a. Install the water heater near locations that use hot
water, such as bathroom, kitchen, or laundry room faucets.
b. Select a location that minimizes the length of the
water pipe.
c. If the distances are long or if the faucet or appliance
requires “instant” hot water, we recommend running a recirculation line back to the water heater from the furthest fi xture. Insulate the hot water supply and recirculation lines.
d. Select a location away from foot traffi c and away
from areas where dust, debris, chemical agents, or other combustible materials could accumulate.
e. Allow suffi cient space for service and maintenance
access to all gas, water, and drain connections.
f. Make sure the location meets all building code
requirements.
IMPORTANT Reduce the maximum equivalent length by 5 feet
per 90° elbow and by 2 feet per 45° elbow. Intake and exhaust venting pipes have the same allowable lengths. Do not exceed these set limits.
EXAMPLE: A 3” vent line or fresh air intake line
(Model GX200) with the six 90 degree elbows
would be limited to a length of 70 feet in a twin
pipe configuration
3. Locate the unit close to a drain and near gas and water
connections.
The water heater produces a signifi cant amount of condensate during normal operation and should be located near a suitable drain where damage from a possible leak will be minimal. Installing the water heater in a location without a drain will void the warranty and Hubbell will not be responsible for any resulting water damages that may occur as a result. For additional information, refer to the Install Condensate Drain section.
The water heater should be located in an area where leakage from the unit or water pipes will not result in damage to the area around the appliance or to lower fl oors of the structure. When such locations cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a suitable drain pan, adequately drained, be installed under the water heater. The pan must not restrict combustion air fl ow.
g. Make sure the wall surface the water heater is
mounted onto will support the weight of the unit.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The Hubbell .. 200 and GX250 water heaters weigh 90 lbs. The GX200P and GX250P weigh 98 lbs.
2. Minimize the distance that the exhaust gas vent and fresh air intake must travel to an exterior wall.
a. The exhaust vent outlet must not be located next to
a walkway, near soffi t vents, crawl space vents, or other areas where condensate (water vapor) could cause damage or create a hazard.
b. The fresh air inlet vent must be located at least 12”
from the exhaust vent.
c.
Contaminated or dirty air drawn into the intake pipe can damage the water heater. The Hubbell warranty does not cover damage caused by airborne contaminants.
16
PREPARATION BEFORE INSTALLATION
4. Locate the water heater and all water pipes in an area where the ambient temperature always remains above freezing.
NOTICE
In cold climates, if there is a power failure, the unit’s freeze protection system will not operate, and can result in water freezing inside the heat exchanger.
To prevent damage to the water heater, turn OFF the gas supply and inlet completely drain the unit.
Damage caused by freezing water is not covered by the Hubbell warranty.
a. When the water heater is connected to an electrical
power supply, it will automatically prevent the water inside the unit from freezing.
b. The unit’s freeze protection system will not prevent
the water in surrounding pipes from freezing.
water valve. Open the drain valve and
5. Select an appropriate location for the combustion air and exhaust pipes to exit the house. Use the diagram and chart on the next page to make this determination.
High Elevation Installations
For operation at elevations above 2,000 feet, Hubbell model ratings should be reduced by 4% for each 1,000 feet above sea level.
Water Quality
Potable water is defined as drinkable water supplied from utility or well water in compliance with EPA secondary maximum contaminant levels (40 CFR part 143.3) as shown in the table below. If your water contains contaminants higher than outlined by EPA, then water treatment is recommended and additional maintainence may be required. If you suspect that your water is
contaminated in any way or water heater errors occur, discontinue use of the water heater and contact an authorized technician or licensed professional.
Contaminant Maximum Allowable Level
Total Hardness 200 mg/l (12 grains/gallon)
Aluminum 0.05 to 0.2 mg/l
Chloride 250 mg/l
Copper 1.0 mg/l
Iron 0.3 mg/l
