BASE REQUIREMENTS Indoor water heaters must be installed on a level noncombustible surface, except as noted below. Do not install on carpeting. Heater sizes 926 to 1758 Typhoon (Outdoor) are supplied with a combustible flooring base as standard. The following chart lists the part number required for a combustible base, for water heaters supplied wi[...]

COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION CLEARANCES The water heater should be positioned to provide the minimum clearances from combustible surfaces and to provide sufficient space for servicing the unit as follows. MINIMUM CLEARANCES: PROTECTED SURFACES Clearances to surfaces installed in rooms which are large (2) in comparison with size of heater. Rear 12 "[...]

COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR SUPPLY CAUTION: Combustion air must not be contaminated by corrosive chemical fumes which can damage the heater and void the warranty.

MODELS 962 - 1826 Locate and assemble as shown below. Secure with screws supplied in envelope in carton. Fig. #8265.0 WARNING: Indoor heaters require a drafthood that must be connected to a vent pipe and properly vented to the outside. Failure to follow this procedure can cause fire or fatal carbon monoxide poisoning. Vent piping the same size or l[...]

At the time of removal of an existing heater, the following steps shall be followed with each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system placed in operation, while the other appliances remaining con- nected to the common venting system are not in opera- tion. (a) Seal any unused openings in the common venting system. (b) Visually in[...]

POWER VENTING Heaters may be connected to systems requiring mechanical draft exhaust fans. The installation must be engineered by competent personnel in accordance with the latest edition of ANSI Z 223.1, local codes and with the supplier of the fan. Particular attention must be given to the type of vent pipe used, its size and location. Suitable i[...]

VENT DAMPER NORMAL OPERATION SUMMARY For safe, efficient operation, the vent damper and all flue product carrying areas of the appliance must be checked annually, with particular attention given to dete- rioration from corrosion or other sources. Check vent damper operation as follows: 1. When the furnace or heater is off, check that the vent dampe[...]

PIPING: General. Consult particular heater section for specific information. a . GAS Gas piping must be installed in accordance with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z 223.1 and other local or regulatory agency codes that have jurisdiction. 1. Check heater rating plate for • Correct Fuel Gas • Rated input to meet local cond[...]

CAUTION: The heater and its manual shut off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 KPA). Dissipate test pressure in the gas supply line before reconnecting the heater and its manual shut off valve to gas supply line. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS PROCEDURE MAY[...]

It is recommended that a gate valve be installed in the cold water supply line adjacent to the heater. If Local Codes require a check valve - provisions must be made for thermal expansion. A minimum pressure of 30 PSIG must be maintained in the system to prevent damage to the heater due to lack of water circulation caused by vapor formation at suct[...]

HOT WATER SUPPLY HEATER Model 136- 1826 The heater is direct fired and used with a storage tank. The model number indicates the BTU/holds input. (i.e. an 1826 holds input of 1,826,000 BTU/ HR) See specification and dimension information on pages 4, 5 and 6. TANK TEMPERATURE CONTROL 1. The tank temperature controller is shipped loose for installatio[...]

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION 1. Power to heater and recirculation pump. 2. Control switch, located on heater control box, placed in "ON" position. a. High limit controller circuit closed. b. Tank temperature controller calls for heat. c . Pump relay energized starting heater pump. d. Flow switch activated, if sufficient flow is determined, sendi[...]

* PIPING MUST BE EQUAL BETWEEN TEES AND TANKS. NOTES: 1. Plumb all swing check valves in gravity closed position. 2. Minimum pipe size equal to heater inlet/outlet connection size (between heater and tanks). 3. Pipe sizes between tanks are to be based on estimated GPM flow rates (Max. 10 FPS Vel.) 4. Pipe all relief valves to drain or as local code[...]

DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS IN GENERAL ENERGY SAVING PUMP CONTROL The energy saving pump control is an electronic device that allows the operator to set the desired time for the pump to run after the heater shuts off. The time is factory-set at 7 minutes and it can be re-adjusted in the field anywhere from 3 to 10 minutes. In a conventional system, whe[...]

TANKSTAT TEMPERATURE CONTROL This is a bulb immersion type device that will regulate the water temperature in the storage tank. When the water temperature rises to the set point, the switch opens and shuts off the main burners. As the water cools down, the switch closes and turns on the main burners again to maintain the desired water tem- perature[...]

100% PILOT SAFETY (IID Units) All heaters employ electronic devices, which close the main gas valve within 8/10 of a second whenever the pilot flame is interrupted. Pilot flame is automatically lit when the device is powered. Unit performs its own safety check and opens the main valve only after the pilot is proven to be lit. ELECTRICAL Heater elec[...]

General Safety Precautions Water temperature over 125°F can cause severe burns instantly or death from scalds. Children, disabled and elderly are at highest risk of being scalded. See instruction manual before set- ting temperature at water heater. Feel water before bathing or shower- ing. Temperature limiting valves are available, see manual. Max[...]
