INSTALLATION INFORMATION
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 a booklet
ANSI/NFPA 70.
INSTALLATION INFORMATION:
For complete information, see the installation instructions 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.
