Equipment Base
The heater should be mounted on a level, structurally
s
ound surface. The heater is approved for installation
on a combustible surface but must NEVER be
i
nstalled on carpeting. Gas-fueled equipment installed
in enclosed parking garages must be located at least
18 in. above the floor.
In addition, the heater shall be installed such that the
gas ignition system components are protected from
water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during appliance
operation or service (circulator replacement, control
replacement, etc.).
If the heater needs to be secured to the ground, use
the brackets that were used to bolt the heater to the
shipping pallet.
Clearances
Indoor Installations
When installed according to the listed minimum clear-
ances from combustible construction, these heaters
can still be serviced without removing permanent
structural construction around the heater. However, for
ease of servicing, a clearance of at least 24 in. in front,
at least 24 in. on the rear and 10 in. above the top of
the heater is required. This will allow the heater to be

The temperature of the water in the heater can be reg-
ulated by using the Raypak Modulating Temperature
Control. To comply with safety regulations, the control
is set at 120°F when shipped from the factory (Mode 3
default setting for Tank Target).
To adjust the water temperature, follow the instruction
for the operation of the control starting on page 30 of
this manual. The control is shown below for identifica-
tion purposes only. (See Fig. 5.)
CAUTION: Hotter water increases the risk of
scalding! There is a hot water scald potential if the
thermostat is set too high.

*DO NOT install on carpeting.
CAUTION: This heater should be located in an
area where water leakage will not result in damage
to the area adjacent to the appliances or to the
structure. When such locations cannot be avoided, it
is recommended that a suitable catch pan,
adequately drained, be installed under the
appliance. The pan must not restrict air flow.
