SECTION I
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
-READ CAREFULLY-
The equipment must be installed in accordance with those
installation regulations required in the area where the installation
is to be made. These regulations must be carefully followed in
all cases. Authorities having jurisdiction shall be consulted
before installations are made.
All wiring on water heaters installed in the USA must be in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and/or local
regulations; or in Canada, installed in accordance with the
Canadian Electrical Code and/or local regulations.
The following terms are used throughout this manual to bring
attention to the presence of hazards of various risk levels, or to
important information concerning product life.

DANGER
DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable, combustible, or
corrosive vapors and/or liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
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 the 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!
Liquefied petroleum gas/propane gas is heavier than air and will
remain at floor level if there is a leak. Basements, crawl spaces,
closets, and areas below ground level will serve as pockets for
accumulation of leaking gas.
This water heater is supplied with an adjustable thermostat to control
water temperature. Hot water temperatures required for automatic
dishwasher and laundry use can cause scald burns resulting in serious
personal injury and/or death. The temperature at which injury
occurs varies with the person’s age and the time of exposure. The
slower response time of disabled persons increases the hazards to
them.
their own bath water.
NEVER
allow small children to use a hot water tap or to draw
NEVER
leave a child or disabled person
unattended in a bathtub or shower.

Important Information continued-
WARNING
Installation is not complete unless a pressure and temperature
relief valve is installed into the side of the water heater. See the
Water Connections section of this manual for details.
This water heater contains very hot water under high pressure.
Do not unscrew any pipe fittings or attempt to disconnect any
components of this water heater without positively assuring the
water is cool and has no pressure. Always wear protective
clothing and equipment when installing, starting up, or servicing
this water heater to prevent scald injuries. Do not rely on the
pressure and temperature gauges to determine the temperature
and pressure of the water heater. This water heater contains
components that become very hot. Do not touch any components
unless they are cool.
Improper installation, adjustments, alteration, service or
maintenance can cause property damage, personal injury or loss
of life. Failure to follow all instructions in the proper order can
cause personal injury or death. Read and understand all
instructions, including all those contained in component
manufacturer’s manuals, which are provided with the appliance
before installing, starting-up, operating, maintaining, or
servicing this appliance. Keep this manual and literature in
legible condition and posted near the appliance for reference by
owner and service technician.
This water heater requires regular maintenance and service to
operate safely. Follow the instructions contained in this manual.
Installation, maintenance, and service must be performed only
by an experienced, skilled, and knowledgeable installer or service
agency.
To comply with NSF requirements this water heater is to be:
a) Sealed to the floor with sealant, in a smooth and easily
cleanable way, or
b)
Installed with an optional leg kit that includes legs and/or
extensions that provide a minimum clearance of 6”
beneath the water heater.

Important Information continued-
WARNING
It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to see that all
controls are correctly installed and are operating properly when
the installation is complete.
DO NOT operate the water heater with jumpered or absent
controls or safety devices.
DO NOT tamper with or alter the water heater and/or controls.
DO NOT operate the water heater if any external part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to
inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control
system that was under water.
This water heater is suitable for installation on combustible
flooring. DO NOT install this water heater on carpeting.
DO NOT operate this water heater without first being certain it
is filled with water.
Flammable items, pressurized containers, or any other potential
fire hazardous articles must never be placed on or adjacent to the
heater. Containers of flammable gases should not be stored or
used in the same room with this water heater.
Hydrogen gas can be produced in an operating water heater that
has not had water drawn from the tank for a long period of time
(generally two weeks or more). Hydrogen gas is extremely
flammable. To prevent the possibility of injury under these
conditions, we recommend that the water faucet be opened for
several minutes at the kitchen sink before you use any electrical
appliance that is connected to the hot water system. If hydrogen
is present, there will be unusual sounds such as air escaping
through the pipes as hot water begins to flow. Do not smoke or
have open flame near the faucet at the time it is open.
NOTES: These ratings were obtained with a heat source output rate
and flow rate as specified in Table 3 and a 180°F boiler water supply
temperature. Other results will be obtained under different conditions.
NOTES: Based on 200 °F boiler water temperature and 50 °F potable
water inlet temperature.

NOTICE
If the boiler takes longer to heat up from a cold start than the
water availability as noted above, hot water shortage may occur.
Hot water availability is based off drawing 80% of the heated
tank volume at 4 gallons per minute flow rate.
The maximum heat transfer through the coil (heat input) of the
water heater at 240°F boiler water supply temperature and 210°F
potable water temperature is 94,100 Btu/hr for residential models
and 180,300 Btu/hr for commercial models. Potable water
temperature is limited to below 210°F and nominal watercontaining capacity is below 120 gallons for all indirect-fired
models.
Accordingly, per Part HLW-101.2, Section IV of the ASME
Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, all indirect-fired products
listed are exempted from compliance with the code.
