7 Installation of the water heater must be accomplished in such a manner that if the tank or any connections should leak, the flow will not cause damage to the structure. For this reason, it is not advisable to install the water heater in an attic or upper floor . When such locations cannot be avoided, a suitable drain p an should be installed unde[...]

8 The water within the water heater tank expands as it is heated and increases the pressure of the water system. If the relieving point of the water heater’s temperature-pressure relief valve is reached, the valve will relieve the excess pressure. The temperature-pressure relief valve is not intended for the constant relief of thermal expansion. [...]

9 The valve is certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory that maintains periodic inspection of production of listed equipment of materials as meeting the requirements for Relief V alves and Automatic Gas Shut-off Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22 • CSA 4.4, and the code requirements of ASME. If replaced, the valve mu[...]

10 T o fill the water heater with water: 1. Close the water heater drain valve by turning the handle to the right (clockwise). The drain valve is on the lower front of the water heater . 2. Open the cold water supply valve to the water heater . NOTE: The cold water supply valve must be left open when the water heater is in use. 3. T o insure comple[...]

11 WIRING DIAGRAMS TURN OFF THE HEA TER ELECTRICAL SUPPL Y BEFORE SERVICING ANY ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. FIGURE 7.[...]

12 WIRING Never use water heater unless it is completely full of water . T o prevent damage to the tank and heating element, the tank must be filled with water . Water must flow from the hot water faucet before turning on power . Y ou must provide all wiring of the proper size outside of the water heater . Y ou must obey local codes and electric co[...]

13 TEMPERA TURE ADJUSTMENT T o change the temperature setting: NOTE: It is not necessary to adjust the upper thermostat. However , if it is adjusted above the factory set point (120°F (49°C)/HOT) it is recommended that it not be set higher than the lower thermostat setting. 1. T urn “OFF” the heater electrical supply . Do not attempt to adjus[...]

14 THERMAL EXP ANSION W ater supply systems may , because of such events as high line pressure, frequent cut-offs, the effects of water hammer among others, have installed devices such as pressure reducing valves, check valves, back flow preventers, etc. to control these types of problems. When these devices are not equipped with an internal by-pas[...]

15 If after manually operating the valve, it fails to completely reset and continues to release water, immediately close the cold water inlet to the water heater , follow the draining instructions, and replace the temperature-pressure relief valve with a new one. If the temperature-pressure relief valve on the appliance weeps or discharges periodic[...]

16 1 . Turn “OFF” the electric power supply to the water heater . 2 . Remove the outer door , insulation block and pad in the order they are installed. 3. A . Models with lower thermostat without high limit: Lift out the tab as shown below to unclip the terminal cover from the thermostat. The terminal cover can now be removed from the thermosta[...]

17 The water passing out of the drain valve may be extremely hot. T o avoid scalding, make sure all connections are tight and that the water flow is directed away from any person. 4 . Remove the two screws securing the outer door , and remove door . FIGURE 15. 5. Remove the insulation block and pad. FIGURE 16. 6. A . Models with lower thermostat wi[...]
