It will harm the dip[...]

14 GAS PIPING Make sure the gas supplied is the same type listed on the model rating plate. The inlet gas pressure must not exceed 14 inch water column (3.5 kPa) for natural and propane gas (L.P.). The minimum inlet gas pressure shown on the rating plate is that which will permit ring at rated input. All gas piping must comply with local codes a[...]

15 SEDIMENT TRAPS (DRIP LEGS) A sediment trap (drip leg) should be installed as close to the inlet of the water heater as practical at the time of water heater installation. The sediment trap should be either a tee tting with a capped nipple in the bottom outlet or other device recognized as an effective sediment trap. If a tee tting is used,[...]
