A disconnection union must always
be provided at the cold water inlet
and hot water outlet on the water
heater to allow for disconnection of
the water heater.
All water heaters have a plastic dip
tube or fitting liner in the inlet and
outlet fittings (see diagram). These
must be in place for the water heater
to function properly. Do not remove
or damage them by using heat
nearby. They will be pushed into the
correct position as the fitting is
screwed in.
