DIMENSIONS AND INSTALLATION INFORMATION (IN INCHES)
LOCAL INSTALLATION REGULATIONS:
This water heater must be installed in accordance with these instructions,
local codes, utility codes, utility company requirements or, in the absence of
local codes, the latest edition of the National Electrical Code. It is
available from some local libraries or can be purchased from the National Fire
Preventions Association, Batterymarch park, Quincy, MA 02169 as booklet
ANSI/NFPA 70.
INSTALLATION INFORMATION: For complete information, see installation
instruction packed with your water heater.
POWER REQUIREMENTS: Check the markings on the rating plate of the water
heater to be certain the power supply corresponds to the water heater
requirements.
LOCATION: Locate the water heater in a clean dry area as near as
practical to the area of the greatest heated water demand. Long uninsulated
hot water lines can waste energy and water.
REQUIRED CLEARANCES: There must be sufficient clearance between any
object and the top, rear and sides of the water heater in the event service is
needed. The controls and drain at front of unit must have clear access for
operation and service. Installations that require minimal clearance on the
sides or rear of the water heater for earthquake straps are also acceptable.
In these cases, additional clearance should be provided on the opposite side
of the unit to allow for service access
