Never use this water heater unless it is completely full of water. To
preventdamagetothetank,thetankmustbelledwithwater.Water
mustowfromthehotwaterfaucetbeforeturning“ON”gastothe
water heater.
Tollthewaterheaterwithwater:
1. Close the water heater drain valve by turning handle to the right
(clockwise).Thedrainvalveisonthelowerfrontofwaterheater.
2. Open the cold water supply valve to the water heater.
NOTE: The cold water supply valve must be left open when the
water heater is in use.
3. Toinsurecompletellingofthetank,allowairtoexitbyopeningnearest
hotwaterfaucet.Allowwatertorununtilaconstantowisobtained.
This will let air out of the water heater and the piping.
4. Check all water piping and connections for leaks. Repair as needed.
VENT PIPE ASSEMBLY
There are three parts of the vent pipe assembly that connect the water
heaterexhaust(locatedonlowerbacksideofwaterheater)toinletof
theblowerassembly(mountedontopofwaterheater)asshownin
Figure 1. These parts will need to be assembled according to these
instructions.
AssembleVentPipeAssemblies#1,#2and#3(SeeFigure1)prior
to cementing. The preferred orientation of Vent Pipe Assembly #1
(CondensateU-Assembly)isshowninFigure16.Howeverthis
assembly may be rotated to a different orientation as needed for the
specicinstallationrequirements.Notetherotationalorientationof
each part by marking a line several inches long across the joints.The
long tube of Vent Pipe Assembly #2 should be approximately vertical.
If it is found that either of the two pieces of pipe in Vent Pipe Assembly
#2aretoolongforpropert-up,thenremoveaslittlematerialas
possibletoimprovethet-up.Keepinmindthatthepipeswillinsert
slightly further into the elbows when cement is applied as it acts
as a lubricating agent. The vertical distance from the bottom of the
CondensateU-Assemblytotheoorthatsupportsthewaterheater
shouldbeapproximately0.25”(0.64cm),seeFigure 16. Disassemble
the parts and cement back together using the alignment marks. After
the cement dries, attach the assembly to the blower and the water
heater exhaust using the supplied rubber boots and hose clamps.
A condensate trap is incorporated in the bottom of this vent pipe assembly.
See the CONDENSATE section of this manual for further details.
