Piping
The pipe size and fittings between the heater and the
tank should be at least 1" for model 0090, and 1-1/4"
for models 0135 and 0195. This is based on the tank
being located as close to the heater as possible, as
shown in Fig. 7 below.
If this water heater is installed in a closed water supply
system, such as one having a back-flow preventer in
the cold water supply line, means shall be provided to
control thermal expansion. Contact the water heater
supplier or local plumbing inspector on how to control
this situation.
