Insulation Blankets
Insulation blankets, available to the general
public, for external use on gas water heaters
are not necessary. The purpose of an
insulation blanket is to reduce the standby
heat loss encountered with storage tank
heaters. This water heater does not store
water making an insulation blanket
unnecessary.
The manufacturer’s warranty does not cover
any damage or defect caused by installation,
attachment or use of
any type of energy saving or other
unapproved devices (other than those
authorized by the manufacturer) into, onto or
in conjunction with the water heater. The use
of unauthorized energy saving devices may
shorten the life of the water heater and may
endanger life and property.
The manufacturer disclaims any responsibility
for such loss or injury resulting from the use
of such unauthorized devices.
CAUTION: If local codes require the
application of an external insulation
blanket to this water heater, pay careful
attention to the following so as not to
restrict the proper function and operation
of the water heater:
●
Do not cover the air inlet, flue outlet, or
operating and warning labels attached to
the water heater or attempt to relocate them
on the exterior of insulation blanket.
WARNING: If local
codes require external
application of insulation
blanket kits the
manufacturer’s instructions
included with the kit must
be carefully followed.
NOTICE: The hot and cold
pipes should be insulated as
shown to provide additional
freeze protection.
