CAUTION
This water heater must be located in an area where leakage of the
tank, water line connections, or the temperature and pressure relief
valve will not result in damage to the area adjacent to the water
heater or to lower floors of the structure. When such locations
cannot be avoided, a suitable drain pan must be installed under the
water heater. The drain pan depth must be suitable for draining and
collecting water, and have a minimum length and width of at least
four (4) inches measured from the jacket of the water heater. The
drain pan, as described above, can be purchased from your plumbing
professional. The drain pan must be piped to an adequate drain.
The piping must be at least ¾ inch in diameter and pitched for
proper drainage.
CAUTION
Do not drop water heater. Do not bump water heater jacket against
