IMPORTANT 
Before proceeding, please inspect the water heater and its components 
for possible damage.  DO NOT install any damaged components.  If 
damage is evident then please contact the supplier where the water 
heater was purchased or the manufacturer listed on the rating plate for 
replacement parts. 
WARNING 
Water heaters are heat producing appliances. To avoid damage or injury, 
do not store materials against the water heater or vent-air intake system.  
Use proper care to avoid unnecessary contact (especially by children) 
with the water heater and vent-air intake components. UNDER NO 
CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, SUCH AS 
GASOLINE OR PAINT THINNER BE USED OR STORED IN THE 
VICINITY OF THIS WATER HEATER, VENT-AIR INTAKE SYSTEM OR 
IN ANY LOCATION FROM WHICH FUMES COULD REACH THE 
WATER HEATER OR VENT-AIR INTAKE SYSTEM.
General Information continued-
 
 
Make sure that you check the rating plate and combination gas control on 
the water heater to be certain that the type of gas being supplied 
corresponds with the marking on the rating plate and combination gas 
control. 
 
A sacrificial anode is used to extend tank life. The removal of this anode, for 
any reason, will nullify the warranty. In areas where water is unusually active, 
an odor may occur at the hot water faucet due to a reaction between the 
sacrificial anode and the impurities in the water. If this should happen, an 
alternative anode may be purchased from the supplier that installed this 
water heater. This will minimize the odor while protecting the tank. 
Additionally, the water heater should be flushed with appropriate dissolvers 
to eliminate any bacteria. 
INSTALLATION 
 
LOCATING THE WATER HEATER 
 
This water heater MUST NOT be installed in any location where gasoline or 
flammable vapors are likely to be present, unless the installation is such to 
eliminate the probable ignition of gasoline or flammable vapors. 
 
Water heaters in residential garages must be installed and located, or 
protected, to avoid physical damage.  For other installations refer to 
local codes.  In the absence of local codes, the water heater must be 
installed in compliance with the National Fuel Gas Code, (ANSI Z223.1- 
Latest Edition), or in Canada CAN/CGA B149.1 Natural Gas Installation 
Code (Latest Edition) or CAN/CGA B149.2 Propane Installation Code 
(Latest Edition).
