or other similar air sealing technique, will often be sufficient-
ly airtight so that there is not sufficient air for both combus-
tion and venting the products of combustion of an oil-fired
appliance, or for replacing the air vented by other exhaust
devices within the house.
Air Requirements
An adequate supply of combustion and ventilation air is
required to:
•
•
Ensure proper combustion.
Reduce risk of property damage, severe bodily injury or
death from possible flue gas leakage and carbon
monoxide emissions.
Outdoor Combustion & Ventilation Air
(Unconfined space)
Do not install an exhaust fan in the same room as the water
heater.
Satisfactory combustion cannot be sustained in an area that
is not provided with fresh air. Fresh air contains oxygen that
is necessary for proper combustion. If the water heater is
installed in a confined space, sufficient fresh air must be
drawn in from outside of the enclosure.
If the water heater is installed in an unconfined space in a
building having insufficient infiltration, additional air for com-
bustion and ventilation shall be obtained from outdoors or
from spaces freely communicating with the outdoors. Under
these conditions, permanent opening(s) shall be provided so
that the total air received through these openings will be at
least as much as would be admitted by openings having a

CAUTION
Outdoor Combustion & Ventilation Air
(Confined space)
IF AN ALL-HOUSE VENTILATION FAN IS USED, A
SEPARATE OUTSIDE AIR DUCT MUST BE USED AND
DUCTED TO THE FURNACE ROOM AND/OR ROOM
WHERE THE WATER HEATER IS LOCATED.
A heater installed in a confined space that obtains all of its
air for combustion and ventilation from outside the building
shall be provided with two permanent openings, one near
the top of the enclosure and another near the bottom. Each
opening shall communicate directly or by means of ducts
with the outdoors or to such spaces (such as a crawl space)
that freely communicate with the outdoors, and shall be
sized in accordance with “Air Duct Sizing”.
In Canada:
If the water heater is installed in a house built to the require-
ments of the “National Building Code of Canada, 1985”,
or a subsequent edition, the space shall be provided with a
air inlets as outlined below, or have a mechanical air-supply
system of sufficient equivalent capacity. If a mechanical air-
supply system is used, it shall be interlocked to the appli-
ance or equipment.
NOTE: In unconfined spaces in buildings of conventional
frame, brick, or stone construction built prior to the require-
ments of the “National Building Code of Canada, 1985”,
and not subsequently significantly air-tightened, infiltration is
normally adequate to provide air for combustion and some
ventilation; however, there may be notable exceptions.

To prevent downdrafts, extend the chimney at least 1m (3 ft.)
above highest point where it passes through roof and
610mm (24 in.) higher than any portion of building within 3m

least 4% per 305m (1,000 ft.) above sea level.
Indoor Combustion & Ventilation Air
(Confined space)
A heater installed in a confined space and that obtains all of
its air for combustion and ventilation from within the condi-
tioned space of the building shall be provided with two per-
manent openings, one near the top of the enclosure and
another near the bottom. Each opening shall have a free

area of not less than 19.5 cm /kWh (1 in /1000 Btu/h) of the
total input rating of all appliances in the enclosure, freely
communicating with interior areas that have in turn adequate
infiltration from the outside.
Long horizontal flue pipes, excessive number of tees and
elbows or other obstructions restrict flue gas flow, and can
result in the possibility of condensation, flue gas leakage
and carbon monoxide emissions. These conditions can lead
to serious property damage, severe bodily injury or death.
The flue pipe should be the same size as the breech con-
nection on the appliance. The sizes generally are 150mm (6
in.) for burners rated less than 1.00 GPH and 178mm (7 in.)
for burners rated for 1.00 to 1.50 GPH. The flue pipe should
be as short as possible and installed so that it has a contin-
uous rise of 20mm/m (1/4 in./ft.) of horizontal length from the
breech connection on the appliance to the chimney. Elbows
should be minimized and the sections of pipe and fittings
should be joined with sheet metal screws and straps.
Routing should be made in such a way as to avoid sharp

Vent and Exhaust Connections
Draft Regulator
This device is used on conventional chimney venting only. It
automatically maintains a constant negative pressure in the
chimney to obtain maximum efficiency. If the chimney does
not develop sufficient draft, the draft control cannot function
properly. The heater must be equipped with an approved
draft regulator of adequate size. Make sure that the draft
regulator diameter is at least as large as the flue pipe diam-
eter. Follow manufacturers recommended instructions for
installation. It must be installed in the flue pipe before it
enters the chimney and after the Blocked Vent Safety
Switch, if one is used. Set the draft regulator at -0.03 in. (-
0.762mm) of water column, as measured in the flue
(between the heater and the draft regulator). Recommended
over-fire draft is -0.02 in. (-0.5078mm) of water column.
General chimney requirements
For a burner designed for natural draft connect the vent to a
vertical chimney. Insufficient draft can cause flue gas leak-
age and carbon monoxide emissions, which can lead to
severe bodily injury or death. Use vent material approved by
local codes for oil-fired burners. In the absence of such
codes, refer to:

Water Supply Connections
Pipes and fittings should be installed in as shown in the
installation drawing (Figures 7 & 8). Install a shut-off valve in
the cold water supply line in close proximity to the cold inlet
of the water heater. This valve is for use only when servic-
ing the heater and must be kept open during the heater’s
operation. The water connection fittings (nipples) may con-
tain a non-metallic lining to minimize corrosion and some
models include non-metallic heat traps. These appear like
pink or blue coloured plugs in the fitting. Do not attempt to
pry these plugs loose or damage them. DO NOT APPLY

solder approved for use with potable water systems. Use a
good grade of pipe joint compound, certified for use with
potable water, on the threaded fittings. Be sure all fittings are
drawn up tight.

NOTE: Rear and Combination flue units must be fitted with
a T&P Relief Valve WATTS type 40XL-5 or equivalent.
Failure to install and maintain a new, properly listed
temperature and pressure relief valve will release the
manufacturer from any claims which may result from
excessive temperature or water pressure.
Closed Water Systems
During the heating cycle of the water heater the water
expands creating a pressure build-up in the water system.
The water supply meter may contain a check valve or back
flow preventer. This will create a closed water system. A
Temperature and Pressure (T&P) Relief Valve (150 psi

Water Temperature Regulation
WARNING
Once installed, the operation will be completely automatic.
The thermostat (aquastat) on the water heater is adjustable
and will maintain water at the desired temperature.
Do not attempt to operate this water heater
with the cold water inlet valve closed.
Manually operate temperature and pressure
relief valve at least once a year. Standing
clear of the outlet, (discharge water will be
hot), lift and release the lever handle on the
temperature and pressure relief valve to
make sure the valve operates freely.
WARNING
Never operate the heater if it is not com-
pletely filled with water. To make sure the
heater is filled, open the hot faucet of an
upstairs tap, until there is a full flow of water
with no air coming through the tap.
Water temperature over 52°C (125°F) can cause
severe burns instantly or death from scalds.
Flue Pipes
Children, disabled and elderly are at highest risk of
being scalded.
Once a year, inspect the flue pipe leading from the heater to
the chimney. If corrosion is evident, or discolouration at the
joints can be seen, replace the flue pipes. This should be
done by a qualified Oil-Burner Technician. Flue pipes must
be replaced by the same size flue pipe as the flue collar
(breech connection) at the heater.
Feel water before bathing or showering.
Temperature limiting valves are recommended.

Do not attempt to repair your water heater. Call a qualified
Oil-Burner Technician for service. Turn “OFF” the electric
power whenever the water supply is shut off. Before calling
for service, check that:
between No. 0 smoke and No. 1 smoke.

1. The heater is properly filled.
2. The electrical supply has not been interrupted.
NOTE: For JWF307V also see additional “Installation
Instructions for Through-the-wall Venting Components",
63391, that is supplied with the JWF307V.
Professional Maintenance
Except for external appearance and area tidiness, the fol-
lowing steps should be performed only by a qualified Oil-
Burner Technician.
General Maintenance (by owner)
As a precaution against fire, and to maintain an adequate
flow of combustion air to the heater:
1. Lift out the flue baffle to clean the flue. (On rear and com-
bination flue heaters, the top cover, insulation and flue
top cover must be removed.)
2. Insert a flue brush down the flue passage way(s) to
remove soot and dirt. Soot or carbon that falls into the
combustion chamber will burn up within a very short
time.
3. In normal use, there should be no large accumulation of
soot in the combustion chamber. If there is, remove the
burner and carefully brush or vacuum the combustion
chamber.
•
•
•
Keep the appliance area clear and free from com-
bustible material, gasoline and other flammable vapors
and liquids.
Keep the air ventilation openings unobstructed. If dust
and lint is seen accumulating around the openings,
remove it.
Do not pile cartons, papers, or combustible materials on
top, or near the heater (see Figure 1).

water supply valve when clean water flows.
Temperature and Pressure
Relief Valve
6. If the heater is to remain empty for an extended period of
time, it is suggested the drain valve be left open. When
draining is complete, the hose may be removed.
7. Perform any other servicing as required.
8. Close the drain valve and disconnect hose.
9. Follow instructions for “Filling the Water Heater” and
“Startup” when heater is ready to be put back into ser-
vice.
Manual Relief Valve
Cathodic Protection
Discharge line to drain
Your water heater has been equipped with one or more
anodes that protect the glass-lined tank from corrosion and
prolong the life of the water heater. Over time, as the
anode(s) works, it slowly dissolves, exposing the steel inner
core. Once the anode(s) is depleted, the tank will start to
corrode, eventually developing a leak. Depending on water
conditions, an anode(s) can last from one to ten years. Many
localities treat their water and this can have a significant
effect on the life of your heater. Water conditioning, such as
over-softening, can accelerate the rate at which the
anode(s) is consumed. As with any water heater, it is good
practice to check the anode(s) annually to see if it needs
replacing. Do not remove this anode(s) permanently as it
will void any warranties, stated or implied. Rapid deple-
tion or failure to maintain the anode can leave a heater
unprotected and may result in premature failure of the
heater due to corrosion and leaks.
Figure 12 T&P VALVE TEST.
WARNING! The temperature and pressure relief valve
must be manually operated at least once a year. Caution
should be taken to ensure that:
1. No one is in front of or around the outlet of the temper-
ature and pressure relief valve discharge line.
2. The water manually discharged will not cause any bod-
ily injury or property damage. The water may be
extremely hot.
If, after manually operating the valve, it fails to completely
reset and continues to release water, immediately close the
cold water supply valve, drain the tank as directed in the
“Draining and Flushing” section, and replace the tempera-
ture and pressure relief valve with a new one. Failure to
install and maintain an approved temperature and pressure
relief valve will release the manufacturer from any claim that
might result from excessive temperature or pressure.
This series of oil fired water heaters are factory equipped
with 1 or 2 anodes, depending on the model. The JW717/
JW727 models are equipped with one heavy duty anode.
Under normal circumstances, these anodes should last the
life of the tank and need not be replaced.
Draining, Flushing and Sediment
Removal
Some maintenance and service procedures require that the
heater be drained and empty. The water heater should also
be drained if being shut down for an extended period of time.
Water may contain fine particles of soil and sand which set-
tle to the bottom of a tank and thus form a layer of sediment.
The action of the anode may also help to form sediment. If
not removed, the heater could develop a tendency to pound,
gurgle, or thump when heating up. It is recommended that
the tank be drained and flushed on a regular basis to
remove any sediment that may buildup during operation. To
drain the tank and remove the sediment:
1. Turn "OFF" the electrical supply to the water heater.
2. Close the cold water supply valve.
3. Attach a hose to the drain valve and route to an adequate
drain.
CAUTION! The water being drained can be extremely
hot! The drain hose should be rated for at least 93°C
(200°F). If the drain hose does not have this rating, open the
cold water supply valve and a nearby hot water faucet
served by the system until the water flow is no longer hot.
Close the cold water supply valve and resume.
4. Open the drain valve using a flat-blade screwdriver. A
nearby hot water faucet must be opened to allow the tank
to be fully drained.
Hot Water Odour
On occasion, and depending on your location, hot water
may develop a strong odour. This can be especially prob-
lematic in regions where the water contains sulphur, which
results in hot water having a "rotten egg" odour. If this
occurs, drain the system completely, flush thoroughly and
refill the tank. If the water odour or discoloration persists, the
anode(s) may need to be changed from magnesium to one
made of aluminum. Aluminum anodes may reduce, but not
eliminate, water odour problems. The water supply system
may require special filtration equipment from a water condi-
tioning company to successfully eliminate all water odour
problems. In certain cases chlorinating and flushing of the
water heater may be required. Contact your dealer or water
supplier.
Discoloured Water
•
Water rich in iron or other minerals can produce red or
brown staining. Heating water generally worsens this sit-
uation.

ity. See also “Hot Water Odour”.
A sudden appearance of rust-coloured water may indi-
cate that the anode(s) has been depleted. Once deplet-

Cleaning Instructions, Flue Passages Of
The JWF657 Heater
•
•
•
Refer to Figure 13 for components of the heater.
1. Remove the casing top and lift if off completely. It is nec-
essary to disconnect the hot and cold water lines and
move them out of the way. Do not remove the nipples
from the tank.
2. Lift off the flue collector. The flue collector has a lip on
the outer edge which will allow a hook to grab the edge
to help lift it up.
Anode Maintenance
3. Remove the flue baffles (4).
A new anode is about 20mm (13/16 in.) to 22mm (7/8 in.)
diameter and has a steel wire core approximately 3mm (1/8
in.) diameter in the center. If the anode is less than approx-
imately 10mm (3/8 in.) in diameter, or the inner steel core is
exposed, the anode(s) should be replaced. Operating a
water heater without an actively working anode(s) will void
the warranty.
4. With a 76mm (3 in.) diameter wire brush, 1.2m (4 ft.)
long, remove any soot build-up which may be on the top
head or inside the flue collector.
5. Reassemble in reverse order. It may be necessary to
replace the gaskets around the nipples to seal them at
the flue collector. Replace the insulation and the casing
top.
6. Reconnect the plumbing lines.
To check/replace the anode:
1. Turn "OFF" the electrical supply to the water heater.
2. Close the cold water supply valve.

NOTE: The anode(s) has been factory installed using a
power tool. It may be necessary for a second person to sta-
bilize the heater. A few sharp blows on the handle of the
socket wrench should loosen the anode nut. If an impact
wrench (power drive) is available, this is an easier way to
remove an anode.
6. Using a 1 1/16" socket (certain models require 1-5/16”)
, remove the anode(s) and inspect it. The surface may be
rough, full of pits and crevices, but this is normal. If it is
less than approximately 10mm (3/8 in.) in diameter, or
the inner steel core exposed, the anode(s) should be
replaced.

4. Connect a hose to the drain valve and drain as directed
in “Draining, Flushing and Sediment Removal”.
5. Leave the drain hose attached as a reminder that the
tank has no water in it.
Re-Starting The Heater After Shut-Down
CAUTION
Hydrogen gas can be produced in a hot water system
served by this heater that has not been used for a long
period of time (generally two (2) weeks or more).
Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable and can ignite
when exposed to a spark or flame. To reduce the risk of
injury under these conditions, it is recommended that the
hot water faucet be opened for several minutes at the
kitchen sink before using any electrical appliance con-
nected to the hot water system. Use caution in opening
faucets. When hydrogen is present, there will probably be
an unusual sound such as air escaping through the pipe
as the water begins to flow. There should be no smoking
or open flame near the faucet at the time it is open.
7. If the local jurisdiction requires a back-flow preventer in
the cold water line, an expansion tank of adequate size
must be installed.
8. To reduce the scald hazard potential, a mixing valve
must be installed.
Installation
The heating mode may be one of the following options:
1. Follow instructions for “Filling the Water Heater” and 1. A fan coil/air handler (Figure 14).

returns, nor repairs made by a person who has not been authorized by GSW or one of its authorized dealers. GSW Units/parts must be replaced with GSW or
John Wood products to be eligible for Warranty. This Warranty is available to the original owner of a Unit installed within the boundaries of continental United
States, of Canada, or their territories. Consumers must retain point-of-sale proof of purchase to validate warranty entitlement. This Warranty does not
cover components not manufactured by GSW, such as oil burners, which carry the warranty given by the manufacturer thereof, copy of which warranty GSW

BILITIES EXCEED THE COST OF THE DEFECTIVE PART(S) OR UNIT. GSW WILL NOT PAY FOR ANY TRANSPORTATION,
LABOUR, INSTALLATION, OR OTHER INCIDENTAL COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF A
DEFECTIVE PART OR UNIT.
This warranty and GSW's obligations shall be construed and determined in accordance with the laws of both the Province of Ontario, and of Canada in force
therein. This Warranty does not affect specific legal rights of a consumer under applicable law, except to the extent that such rights may be waived or replaced,
and the provisions hereof are deemed to be amended to the extent necessary. The unenforceability of any provision, in whole or in part, of this Certificate shall
not affect the remaining provisions. Any and all repair and/or replacement of part(s) or Unit are the sole and exclusive remedy available against GSW.

age. GSW accepts no responsibility for such damage, nor any incidental
or consequential loss, nor damage(s) related thereto, suffered by the
owner of the Unit nor by any third party.
3. The Unit shall not be installed where it will be exposed to adverse or
unusual environmental or corrosive conditions. No warranty extends, for
