Description of Operation
This appliance is one of the most advanced water heaters available. It provides a continuous supply of hot water at a preset temperature. This appliance is direct vent where air is brought in from the outside and combustion gases are exhausted to the outside.
While electricity, water, and gas supplies are connected, this appliance produces hot water whenever a hot water tap is open.
Ignition is electronic. There is no pilot light consuming gas while the water heater is not being used. The gas burner lights automatically when the hot water tap is
opened and goes out when the tap is closed.
Installation of the temperature controller is highly recommended. The temperature controller can set the temperature within a specific range and can provide error codes to diagnose any problems.
The temperature of the outgoing hot water is constantly monitored. This appliance may adjust the water flow in order to maintain the temperature setting. The water flow may vary from summer to winter due to the difference in ground water temperature.

Trouble Shooting for Common Issues
I don’t have any hot water when I open the tap.
Make sure there is gas, water, and electricity to the water heater (power is turned on and the gas is turned on).
When I was using the hot water, the water got cold.
If you adjusted the flow from the tap to lessen it, you may have gone below the minimum flow required. This water heater requires a minimum flow rate to operate. (See the specification page for the flow rate of your model.) Decrease the temperature setting at the temperature controller or increase the water flow.
White smoke comes out of the exhaust.
During colder weather when the exhaust temperature is much hotter than the outside air, the exhaust fumes condense producing water vapor.
When I open a hot tap, I do not immediately get hot water.
Hot water must travel through your plumbing from the water heater to the faucet. The time period for hot water to reach your fixture is determined by the amount of water in the plumbing system between the water heater and the fixture, water pressure, and the flow rate of the fixture.
After I turn off the hot water tap, the fan on the water heater continues to run.
The fan is designed to continue running for a short time after the flow of water stops. This is to ensure constant water temperatures during rapid starting and stopping, as well as exhausting any residual gas flue products from the unit.

Electrical Connection
The water heater must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or in the absence of local codes with the most recent edition of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. Do not rely on the gas or water piping to ground the water heater. A screw is provided in the junction box for the grounding connection.
The water heater requires 120 VAC, 60 Hz power from a properly grounded circuit.
A disconnect switch must be provided and installed for the incoming 120 VAC power. It should be a type that is suitable for outdoor use. Check the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 and your local codes for a proper switch type to use in your area.

Gas Piping
General Instructions
A manual gas control valve must be placed in the gas supply line to the water heater. A union can be used on the connection above the shut off valve for the future servicing or disconnection of the unit.
Check the type of gas and the gas inlet pressure before connecting the water heater. If the water heater is not of the gas type that the building is supplied with, DO NOT connect the water heater. Contact the dealer for the proper unit to match the gas type.
Check the gas supply pressure immediately upstream at a location provided by the gas company. Supplied gas pressure must be within the limits shown in the Specifications section.
Before placing the appliance in operation all joints including the heater must be checked for gas tightness by means of leak detector solution, soap and water, or an equivalent nonflammable solution, as applicable. (Since some leak test solutions,
including soap and water, may cause corrosion or stress cracking, the piping shall be rinsed with water after testing, unless it has been determined that the leak test solution is non-corrosive.)
Always use approved connectors to connect the unit to the gas line. Always purge the gas line of any debris before connection to the water heater.
The gas supply line shall be gas tight, sized, and so installed as to provide a supply of gas sufficient to meet the maximum demand of the heater and all other gas consuming appliances at the location without loss of pressure.
Any compound used on the threaded joint of the gas piping shall be a type which resists the action of liquefied petroleum gas (propane / LPG).
Refer to an approved pipe sizing chart if in doubt about the size of the gas line.
305, 505, 705 Outdoor Manual 15
Gas Piping
Pipe Sizing Procedure - Example
The gas supply must be capable of handling the entire gas load at the location. Gas line sizing is based on gas type, the pressure drop in the system, the gas pressure supplied, and gas line type. Refer to the National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54, for proper gas line sizing. The below information is provided as an example.
1. Determine the cubic feet per hour of gas required by dividing the gas input (on the rating plate) by the heating value of the gas (available from the local gas company). The gas input needs to include all gas products at the location and the maximum BTU usage at full load when all gas products are in use.
Gas Input of the water heater (BTU / HR) Cubic Feet per Hour (CFH) = Heating Value of Gas (BTU / FT 3 )
2. Use the table for your gas type to find the pipe size required for your cubic feet per hour of gas and your pipe length.
Example: The heating value of propane gas for your location is 2516 BTU / FT The gas input is 199,000 BTU/HR. Additional appliances at the location require 75,000 BTU/HR. Therefore the cubic feet per hour = (199,000+75,000) / 2516 = 108.9 FT If the pipe length is 100 ft then the 3/4 inch pipe size capable of supplying 197 FT
will be adequate.

Water Piping
General Instructions
A manual water control valve must be placed in the
water inlet connection to the water heater before it is connected to the water line. Unions may be used on both the hot and cold water lines for future servicing and disconnection of the unit.
The piping (including soldering materials) and
components connected to this appliance must be approved for use in potable water systems.
Purge the water line to remove all debris and air.
Debris will damage the water heater.
Toxic chemicals such as those used for boiler water treatment are not to be introduced to the potable water used for space heating.
If the appliance will be used as a potable water source, it must not be connected to a system that was previously used with a nonpotable water heating appliance.
Ensure that the water filter on the water heater is clean and installed.
Pressure Relief Valve
An approved pressure relief valve is required by the
American National Standard (ANSI Z21.10.3) / Canadian Standard (CSA 4.3) for all water heating
systems.
The relief valve must comply with the standard for
Relief Valves and Automatic Gas Shutoff Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems ANSI Z21.22 and /or the standard Temperature, Pressure, Temperature and Pressure Relief Valves and Vacuum Relief Valves, CAN1-4.4.
The relief valve must be rated up to 150 psi and to at least the maximum BTU/hr of the appliance.
The discharge from the pressure relief valve should be piped to the ground or into a drain system to prevent exposure or possible burn hazards to humans or other plant or animal life. Follow local codes. Water discharged from the relief valve could cause severe burns instantly, scalds, or death.
The pressure relief valve must be manually operated once a year to check for correct operation.
Freeze Protection
The relief valve should be added to the hot water outlet line according to the manufacturer’s instructions. DO NOT place any other type valve or shut off device between the relief valve and the water heater.
Do not plug the relief valve and do not install any reducing fittings or other restrictions in the relief line. The relief line should allow for complete drainage of the valve and the line.
If a relief valve discharges periodically, this may be due to thermal expansion in a closed water supply system. Contact the water supplier or local plumbing inspector on how to correct this situation. Do not plug the relief valve.
Neither this water heater nor the American National Standard (ANSI Z21.10.3) / Canadian Standard (CSA 4.3) requires a combination temperature and
pressure relief valve for this appliance. However, local codes may require a combination temperature and pressure relief valve.
The freeze protection features include electrical heating elements and intermittent firing of the burner. Freeze protection may be disabled if electricity or gas is not supplied, or if there is an error preventing the water heater from functioning. Loss of freeze protection may result in water damage from a burst heat exchanger or water lines.
The installation of auto drain down solenoid valves is optional. However, it is strongly recommended that these valves be installed to prevent damage from freezing in case the normal freeze protection should become disabled. Any product damage due to freezing will not be covered by the warranty.
305, 505, 705 Outdoor Manual 17
In addition, the solenoid valves should be connected electrically to a surge protector with terminals that attaches to the PC board in the unit. This allows the solenoid valves to operate if the water heater is disabled due to an error code.
The solenoid valves and the surge protector with terminals are available for purchase separately.
Freeze Protection Piping
Vacuum Breaker
NOTICE
Warranty does not cover damage due to freezing.
When electrical power and gas are supplied to the water heater, it will not freeze in environments as cold as -30º F when protected from direct wind exposure.
In the event of a power failure at temperatures below freezing the water heater should be drained of all water to prevent freezing damage.
The unit may be drained manually. However, it is highly recommended that drain down solenoid valves be installed that will automatically drain the unit if power is lost. It is also recommended that a surge protector with terminals be installed that attaches to the PC board in the unit and allows the solenoid valves to operate if the unit is disabled due to an error code.
Water Heater
When the electrical power to the water heater fails, the 3/4” solenoid valve closes (stopping the flow of water into the heater) and the 1/2” solenoid valve opens (allowing the water heater and associated piping to drain. Ensure that you run the drain for the solenoids to the outside environment to prevent discharging water inside the building causing water damage).
NOTE:
Heat trace ALL water pipe and fittings located outside home (attic, crawl space) or building structure. (ALL water pipe and fittings shown above the dashed line in the drawing.)
NOTE:
ALL pipe and fittings shown below dashed line should be located inside home or building structure.
The vacuum breaker line should be located inside the building structure.

Toxic chemicals, such as used for boiler treatment, shall not be introduced into the potable water.
The water heater shall not be connected to any heating system or components previously used with a
nonpotable water heating appliance.
When the system requires water for space heating at temperatures higher than required for other uses, a means such as a mixing valve shall be installed to temper the water for other uses in order to reduce the scald hazard potential.
Space heating applications are considered commercial applications for warranty purposes.
Temperature Setting
When using this appliance to provide domestic hot water it is recommended that the domestic hot water temperature be reduced to acceptable temperatures in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local codes it is recommended that the domestic hot water temperature be set to 140º F (60º C) or lower in accordance with UPC 501.6 by using mixing valves or the temperature controller for the water heater.
Pumps
Only use pumps of brass or stainless steel construction. Do not use pumps of iron construction as they will oxidize and clog the inlet filter on the appliance.
Pumps circulating water through the water heater must be sized to overcome the pressure loss through the water heater, the heating system, and any additional plumbing pressure losses. The pressure drop curve based on the water heater model is provided in this manual.
Replacement
When replacing an existing space heating application’s water heating source (boiler, tank water heater, tankless water heater, etc.) with these water heaters, ensure that the water heaters are sized to adequately provide the necessary BTU input for the desired space heating application. These water heaters are designed to maintain a constant outlet temperature and will supply only the necessary amount of BTU’s to maintain that temperature. Depending on the application the maximum BTU rating of the unit may not be achieved.
Iron Components
Do not use these water heaters directly for space heating applications involving iron radiators or applications with any iron components. Iron components may oxidize creating rust that will clog the inlet filter of the water heater.
