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.

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.

Electrical code requirements are different in the USA and
Canada. Refer to and follow the local building codes, the
latest edition of the National Electrical Code (NFPA 70) in
the USA, or the CGA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1.
1. Make sure the electrical outlet being used is wired with
at least 12 gauge wire and grounded. It should also
be connected to at least a 5 Amp circuit breaker. The
electrical power required for the water heater is 120V
AC at 60 Hz.
2. Recheck the water, gas, condensate drain line,
combustion (fresh) air inlet, and gas exhaust outlet to
make sure they are properly connected.
3.
Before connecting the water heater to power, open
the gas supply valve, cold water valve, and hot water
valve. Also make sure the drain line valve is closed.
Neutral
POLARITY
The plug provided with the unit is polarity sensitive.
Ensure that the line and neutral are at the correct
locations in the wall socket. If polarity is reversed it
may cause the unit to malfunction
Line
4.
Bleed off any air and make sure the heat exchanger is
filled with water by opening an external faucet.
5. Plug the 60 inch power cord into the outlet. The
water heater’s display panel should turn on. DO NOT
disconnect the power supply while the unit is operating
(heating water).
NOTE: For additional electrical protection, the use
of a whole house surge protector is
recommended. Damage caused by power surges
is not covered by the Hubbell Warranty.
IMPORTANT

Gas Valve Adjustments Section
All Hubbell water heaters are designed to connect
multiple units together. Multiple units increase the
volume of hot water and also ensures that hot water is
always available, even if one unit is shut down due to
maintenance.
Connecting several units together requires proper sizing
of water and gas piping, as well as increased sizing in
the intake and exhaust pipes.
Up to ten water heaters can be connected (cascading)
together. Use the steps in this section along with the
basic installation procedure for installing a single unit.
NOTE: Each units can be single vented or joined
together in a common vent
The water heaters will communicate, via the cable
provided with the water heater, during normal operation:
• When demand for hot water is low, fewer units will
operate.
• If one unit has an error code, the others will continue to
operate.
• Changing the settings (temperature, time, etc.) on one
unit changes settings on all the units.
• It is possible to shut one unit down for maintenance
while the others continue to operate.
1. Connect all the units to a gas supply pipe. Make sure
the pipe is properly sized in accordance with the BTU
draw and number of units being operated.

ADJUSTING THE CO2LEVEL
This procedure is required only during installation in a
high-altitude location or when converting the unit from
natural gas to propane, or with combustion problems.
This procedure should only be done by a qualified
technician or installer.
DANGER
A concentration of carbon monoxide as small as
0.04% (400 parts per million) in the air can be fatal.
When making high fire and/or low fire adjustments,
CO levels must be monitored using a flue gas analyzer
so that the level of no more than 400 ppm of CO is exceeded at any
time during the operation.
Adjusting the “low fire offset “ or the “main flow restrictor” in
small increments can result in a significant increase in CO
concentration. To avoid serious injury or death, DO NOT
make any adjustments to the gas valve without monitoring
the exhaust gases with a fully functional and calibrated flue gas
analyzer.
CO2 and CO Standards
CO2 Range (%) Max. CO Level (ppm)
Natural Gas
High Fire 8.8% to 9.1% < 200 ppm
Low Fire 8.6% to 8.9% < 60 ppm
LP Gas
High Fire 8.8% to 9.1% < 200 ppm
Low Fire 8.6% to 8.9% < 60 ppm
Troubleshooting Chart
2.
Use the CO2 analyzer to measure the exhaust vent
fumes. Use a small screwdriver to adjust gas valve
high fi re main fl ow restrictor (V3) to achieve the
desired CO2 values.
NOTE: Turn clockwise for less CO2 and
counterclockwise for more CO2.. Make
adjustments by making 1/4 turn increments. Wait
three minutes for reading to stabilize and then
recheck.
IMPORTANT
Values above are for climate controlled conditions.
Variables such as gas pressure, heating value of
the gas, and the humidity and temperature of
combustion air can all impact CO and CO2values.
Changes in these variables can result in different
CO and CO2 values on the same water heater.
Once the inlet gas pressures are confirmed, a qualified
service technician must use a calibrated CO2 analyzer to
adjust the gas valve to achieve the desired CO2 and CO
values.
IMPORTANT
The service technician must confirm Static and
Operating inlet gas pressures before setting High
Fire and Low Fire CO2 and CO values.
IMPORTANT
Making High Fire Adjustments can affect the Low
Fire setting and vice versa. Therefore, double
check both the High Fire and the Low Fire CO2 and
CO levels after making any adjustment.
3. There will be a slight time delay between the
adjustment and the response of the analyzer
instrument. Allow the reading to stabilize before
making another adjustment
4. Once the desired values are achieved, record the
HIGH FIRE CO2values.
