VENT TERMINATION

WARNING: Improper installation can cause nausea or asphyxiation, severe injury

or death from carbon monoxide and flue gases poisoning. Improper installation will void product warranty.

 The vent termination provides a means of instal ling vent pipe through the building wall and

must be located in accordance with ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or in Canada with CAN/CSAB149.1 and local applicable codes.

 A proper sidewall vent termination is recommen ded when the w ater heat er is v ented through

a sidewall. If the water heater is converted to a direct-vent unit, a proper sidewall direct-vent termination is to be used.

General rules for venting the water heater are:

1. Place the water heater as close as possible to the vent termination.

2. The vent collar of the water heater must be fastened directly to an unobstructed vent pipe.

3. Do not weld the vent pipe to the water heater collar.

4. Do not cut the vent collar of the unit.

5. The weight of the vent stack must not rest on the water heater.

6. The vent must be easily removable from the top of the water heater for normal service and

inspection of the unit.

7. The water heater vent must not be connected to any other gas appliance or vent stack.

8. Avoid locating the water heater vent termination near any air intake devices. These fans

can pick up the exhaust flue products from the water heater and return them to the building. This can create a health hazard.

9. Avoid using an oversized vent pipe or using extremely long runs of the pipe.

10. Locate the vent termination so that it cannot be blocked by any debris, at any time. Most

codes require that the termination be a t least 12 inche s above grade, but the installer may determine if it should be higher depending on the job site condition and applicable codes.

11. For rooftop venting, a rain cap must be installed.

Based on Energy Content of 1,000BTU/Cubic Ft: Divide each appliance’s BTU requirement by 1,000BTU to get

the appliances Cubic Ft. requirement. Take into account the distance the appliance is from the gas

meter, look in the above gas chart to properly size the line. For sections of the gas line supplying gas to more than one

appliance (Ex: Point A to Point B), add up the cubic ft. requirements of the appliances that are being supplied by that section, and size to the farthest appliance.

For Example: The section from A to B supplies gas to the furnace, range, and dryer. Adding up the BTU requirements and dividing by 1,000 yields a cubic ft. requirement of 220 cubic ft. of gas. The farthest appliance is the range, which is 60 ft. away from the meter. Looking at the above chart, and under the column of 60ft., Section A to B needs to be 1” in order to supply 220 cubic ft.

-Measuring inlet gas pressure-

The water heater cannot perform properly without sufficient inlet gas pressure. Below are instructions on how to check the inlet gas pressure. THIS IS ONLY TO BE DONE BY A

LICENSED PROFESSIONAL.

1. Shut off the manual gas valve on the supply gas line.

2. Remove the screw for the pressure port located on the gas inlet of the water heater shown in the diagram to the right.

3. Connect the manometer to the pressure port.

4. Re-open the manual gas valve. Check to see that there are no gas leaks. Open some of the fixtures that use the highest flow rate to turn on the water heater.

5. Check the inlet gas pressure. When the water heater is on maximum burn, the manometer should read from 5.0” to 10.5” WC for Natural gas, from 8.0” to 14.0” WC for Propane.

1. Turn off all electric power to the water heater if service is to be performed.

2. Turn the manual gas valve located on the outside of the unit clockwise  to the off position.

PUMP CONTROL CONNECTIONS

The water heater can be used to control a recirculation pump. Proper pump control helps to preserve the life of the system and saves energy as well.

The water heater pump control port is a “normally-open dry contact”, and therefore needs additional components to properly control a recirculation pump. To control the recirculation pump, connect the pump to the “pump terminal” in the water heater as shown in the diagram below. (In a multi-unit system, connec t the pump ONLY to the “PARENT” unit.) The pump is to be connected using suitable relays shown in the diagram below (the pump terminal is

essentially only a dry contact. An external power supply and relays are required to operate the pump). Please make sure the relays are properly rated for the recirculation pump.

Using the water heater’s internal thermistors as a temperature control, the recirculation pump will only turn on when recirculation is needed.

CAUTION: In a multi-unit system, the pump must be connected to the “Pump” terminal in the “PARENT” unit only. If the pump is connected to

any of the “CHILD” units, the pump will not work.

These components are NOT included with water heater and are external to the unit. They must be a cquired separately.

Connect to this terminal. This is the pump terminal.

PUMP CONTROL MODE

The water heater provides the four types of the pump control modes. The pump control modes are selected by changing dipswitch settings. The dipswitches a re located in the upper bank of dipswitches in the lower-left quadrant of the ce ntral computer board in the water heater. (See picture below)

A) Recirculation Control: No. 4 ON

This mode is for providing hot water as soon as possible like a recirculation usage. The pump is only made to run while the temperature of the water in the re-circulation loop is not close to the set temperature of the water heater. The pump will run for about 1 minute every 30 minutes to determine whether or not the water temperature in the whole recirculation loop is lower than 9°F from the set temperature. If the water temperature is lower than 9°F from the set temperature, the pump will remain running until the water in the loop gets up to the set temperature. If not, the pump will stop for another 30 minutes. If the inlet thermistor senses that the water temperature is lower than 9°F from the set temperature before those 30 minutes have elapsed, the pump will activate immediately and remain running until the water in the loop gets up to the set temperature.

B) Storage Tank Circulation Control: No.5 ON

The water heater will heat the water 5.4°F higher than its set temperature (unless the water heater is already set at its maximum temperature of 185°F). This is to ensure a higher rate of recovery for storage tank applications. The circulation pump (from storage tank to water heater) will always remain on.

C) Energy Conserving Recirculation: No.4 and No.5 ON

This pump control mode is similar to the “Recirculation Control mode”. How ever, once the heat requirement is less than 7,440 BTU/h, the pump will turn off. The pump will activate again when the temperature of the system is less than 95°F or after 20 minutes have elapsed from its previous operation. *If operating the pump in this mode, insulation is recommended on the water piping.

D) Normal Control (Default setting): No.4 and No.5 OFF

This provides no ON/OFF control for the pump. If a pump is connected to the pump control terminal and both No.4 and No.5 are OFF, the p ump will be made to run all the time as long as there is a power supply to the water heater (If the temperature remote controller is installed, the pump will stop when the remote is turned off). Water in the loop will be maintained at set temperature.

FREEZE PROTECTION SYSTEM

 This unit comes equipped with heating blocks to pro tect it against damages associated with

freezing.

 For this freeze protection system to operate, there has to be electrical power to the unit.

Damage to the heat exchanger caused by freezing temperatures due to power loss is not covered under the warranty. In cases where power losses can occur, consider the use of a backup power supply.

 The freeze protection system will activate when the surrounding and/or outside temperatures

drop below 36.5°F (2.5°C).

 In any areas subject to freezing temperatures, the manufacturer highly recommends

installing the unit indoors. In such an installation, freezing is sues can only occur if cold air enters through the venting into the heat exchanger, whether by negative p ressures within the installation location or by strong outside winds. It is the installer’s responsibility to be aware of these issues and take all preventative measures. The manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage to the heat exchanger as a result of freezing.

 The manu facturer also high ly recommends the use of a backflow preventer (sold sepa rately)

to minimize the amount of cold air entering through the exhaust venting when the water heater is off.

 If you will not be using your heater for a long period of time:

1. Completely drain the water out of the unit. Refer to p. 34.

2. Disconnect power to your heater.

This will keep your unit from freezing and being damaged.

CAUTION: Only pipes within the water heater are protected by the freeze protection system. Any water pipes (hot or cold) located outside the unit will not be protected. Properly protect and insulate these pipes from freezing.

 There are 8 pres et temperatures that you can select from by changing the dipswitch settings

on the computer board.

 The temperature has been preset at the factory to 120ºF (49ºC).  If you desire to change the set temperature with dipswitc hes, please refer to the diagram on

below. These temperatures are available: 100ºF, 115ºF, 120ºF, 135ºF, 145ºF, 155ºF, 165ºF, and 185ºF.

 If you desire a hot water temperature other than the 8 preset se ttings, please purchase the

optional temperature remote controller (part No. 9007603005 (TM-RE30)).

 With this optional remote controller you can set the temperature from 100ºF to 185ºF with

various increments.

 Please read the instructions carefull y prior to installing the remote controller, as failure to do

so could damage the temperature controller and/or the water heater, which will void the warranty.

 Turn off the power supply to the heater before changing the dipswitch

settings.

 Only change the switches with the dark squ ares. The dark squares indicate

which direction the dipswitch should be set to.

 DO NOT set to 185ºF if you use your water heater in a recirculation system.

This will cause damage to the heater and void the warranty.
