† Depending on the installed equivalent length, and/or the number of appliances connected, the

supply gas line size may have to be increased beyond the minimum required sizes - see Gas

Line Sizing on page 39.

8. Locate the water heater where an adequate supply of fresh

air for combustion and ventilation can be obtained. See Air

requirements on page 18.

9. Locate the water heater where the vent and intake air piping,

when installed, will remain within the maximum equivalent

lengths allowed. See Venting requirements on page 24.

10. Do not locate the water heater where noise (such as

the Combustion blower) during normal operation will be

objectionable in adjacent areas.

11. Do not locate the water heater where the subsequent

installation of the vent (exhaust) or intake air terminations

would be objectionable due to noise at the termination(s).

This includes locations close to or across from windows and

doors. See Venting installation on page 22.

Fire or Explosion Hazard

Read instruction manual before

installing, using or servicing

water heater.

Avoid all ignition sources if you smell gas.

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and

liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

Use only the gas shown on the water heater rating label.

Keep ignition sources away from faucets after extended

periods of non-use.

Maintain required clearances to combustibles.

Do not expose water heater controls to excessive gas

pressure.

locating the water heater

Carefully choose a location for the new water heater. The

placement is a very important consideration for the safety of the

occupants in the building and for the most economical use of the

water heater.

Property Damage Hazard

All water heaters eventually leak.

Do not install without adequate drainage.

CAUTION

Whether replacing an existing water heater or installing the water

heater in a new location observe the following critical points:
1. The water heater must be located indoors.
2. The water heater must not be located in an area where it will

be subject to freezing temperatures.

3. Locate the water heater so it is protected and not subject to

physical damage by a moving vehicle.

4. Locate the water heater on a level surface.
5. Locate the water heater near a floor drain. The water heater should

be located in an area where leakage of the tank or connections

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, it is recommended that a metal drain pan, adequately

drained, be installed under the water heater.

6. Locate the water heater close to the point of major hot water usage.
7. Locate the water heater close to a 120 VAC power supply.

See Power Supply on page 14 for requirements.
