HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLATIONS  
IMPROPER COMBUSTION  
Your State water heater has been designed to operate at altitudes  
below 2000 Ft. (609.6 m), for appliance installation locations  
with elevations above 2000 Ft. (609.6 m), special considerations  
need to be taken. Adjustments for high altitude can only be made  
by a State authorized GPG/GPV Start-up Agent. To ensure your  
water heater operates properly at high elevation, a State  
authorized GPG/GPV Start-up Agent will readjust the air-intake  
damper setting and the gas manifold pressure (if required).  
WARNING

THE PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION FROM EXHAUSTING  
THROUGH THE CHIMNEY OR VENT PIPE.  
NOTE: Some gas utility companies derate the heating value of  
the supplied gas at high elevation. Your authorized start-up agent  
must adjust for actual heating value of the gas at the time of start  
up.  
The venting of the water heater should be inspected by a qualified  
service technician at the time of installation and periodically  
thereafter to ensure a down-draft condition does not exist.

HYDROGENGASCANBEPRODUCEDINAHOTWATERSYSTEM  
SERVED BY THIS HEATER THAT HAS NOT BEEN USED FORA  
LONG PERIOD OF TIME (GENERALLYTWO WEEKS OR MORE).  
HYDROGEN GAS IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE. To reduce the  
risk of injury under these conditions, it is recommended that a  
hot water faucet be opened for several minutes before using any  
electrical appliance connected to the hot water system. If  
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 not smoking or open flame near the  
faucet at the time it is open.  
HIGH LIMIT SWITCH (E.C.O.)  
The dual bulb controller also contains the high limit (energy  
cutoff) sensor. The high limit switch interrupts main burner gas  
flow should the water temperature reach 205°F (96°C).  
In the event of high limit switch operation, the appliance cannot  
be restarted unless the water temperature is reduced by 20°F  
(11°C) approx. and the high limit reset button on front of limit  
control is depressed, see Figure 1.  
INSULATION BLANKETS

Continued manual resetting of high limit control, preceded by  
higher than usual water temperature is evidence of high limit  
switch operation. The following are possible reasons for high  
limit switch operation.  
LOCATING THE HEATER  
When installing the heater, consideration must be given to proper  
location. Location selected should be as close to the stack  
chimney as practicable, with adequate air supply and as  
centralized with the piping system as possible.  
A malfunction in the thermostatic controls would allow the  
gas valve to remain open causing water temperature to exceed  
the thermostat setting. The water temperature would continue  
to rise until high limit switch operation.

temperature gradient increasing from the bottom to the top of  
the tank. It is possible that the water at the high limit switch  
sensor could reach its maximum temperature before the water  
temperature at the thermostat reaches the dial setting,  
causing the high limit switch to activate.  
A warming of ambient conditions associated with seasonal  
change could magnify the stacking process described above  
to the point where high limit switch operation would occur.  
THE HEATER SHALL BE LOCATED OR PROTECTED SO IT IS  
NOT SUBJECT TO PHYSICAL DAMAGE BY A MOVING VEHICLE.  
Contact your dealer or servicer if continued high limit switch  
operation occurs.  
WARNING  
DISHWASHING MACHINE REQUIREMENT  
FLAMMABLE ITEMS, PRESSURIZED CONTAINERS OR ANY  
OTHER POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARDOUS ARTICLES MUST NEVER  
BE PLACED ON OR ADJACENT TO THE HEATER. OPEN  
CONTAINERS OF FLAMMABLE MATERIAL SHOULD NOT BE  
STORED OR USED IN THE SAME ROOM WITH THE HEATER.  
All dishwashing machines meeting the National Sanitation  
Foundation requirements are designed to operate with water  
flow pressures between 15 and 25 pounds per square inch.  
Flow pressures above 25 pounds per square inch, or below  
15 pounds per square inch, will result in improperly sanitized  
dishes. Where pressures are high, a water pressure reducing  
or flow regulating control valve should be used in 180°F (82°C)  
line to the dishwashing machine, and should be adjusted to  
deliver water between these limits.  
THE HEATER MUST NOT BE LOCATED INAN AREAWHERE IT  
WILL BE SUBJECT TO FREEZING.  
LOCATE IT NEARAFLOOR DRAIN. THE HEATER SHOULD BE  
LOCATED INANAREAWHERE LEAKAGE FROM THE HEATER  
OR CONNECTIONS WILL NOT RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE  
ADJACENT AREA OR TO LOWER FLOORS OF THE  
STRUCTURE.  
The National Sanitation Foundation also recommends  
circulation of 180°F (82°C) water. Where this is done, the  
circulation should be very gentle so that it does not cause any  
unnecessary turbulence inside the water heater. The circulation  
should be just enough to provide 180°F (82°C) water at the point  
of take-off to the dishwashing machine. Adjust flow by means of  
the plug cock in the circulating line.  
WHEN SUCH LOCATIONS CANNOT BEAVOIDED, ASUITABLE  
DRAIN PAN SHOULD BE INSTALLED UNDER THE HEATER. Such  
pans should be fabricated with sides at least 2” (50.8 mm) deep,  
with length and width at least 2” (50,8 mm) greater than the  
diameter of the heater and must be piped to an adequate drain.  
THE PAN MUST NOT RESTRICT COMBUSTIONAIRFLOW.  
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
Water heater life depends upon water quality, water pressure  
and the environment in which the water heater is installed. Water  
heaters are sometimes installed in locations where leakage  
may result in property damage, even with the use of a drain pan  
piped to a drain. However, unanticipated damage can be reduced  
or prevented by a leak detector or water shut-off device used in  
conjunction with a piped drain pan. These devices are available  
from some plumbing supply wholesalers and retailers, and  
detect and react to leakage in various ways:

Heater must be protected from freezing downdrafts during  
shutdown periods.  
NOTE:ANEGATIVE DRAFTMUST BE MAINTAINED IN VENTING.  
A negative draft of 0.02” to 0.04” w.c. Must be maintained in  
venting system. Measure draft at the location illustrated in  
Figure 4. Adjust the control counter-weights if necessary as  
shown in the MAINTENANCE portion of this manual.  
The GPG 540A, 650A and 750A water heater are classified as a  
category I appliance (non-positive vent pressure, non-  
condensing) when installed with the supplied barometric draft  
control assembly in a vertical vent installation.  
Where an existing chimney or vent is to be used, be sure that the  
chimney or vent has adequate capacity for the number and sizes  
of gas appliances being vented through it. Inspect the chimney  
or vent and remove all soot or other obstructions, which will  
retard free draft.  
The GPV 540A through 740A heater is classified as a category  
III appliance (positive vent pressure, non-condensing) when  
installed with supplied sidewall vent kits or direct vent kit.  
All regulations pertaining to the venting of these heaters must  
be followed.  
Vent connectors making horizontal runs must have a minimum  
upward slope toward the chimney or vent of ¼ inch per foot. Vent  
connector length should be kept as short as possible. Be sure  
that the vent pipe does not extend beyond the inside wall of a  
chimney, see Figure 4.  
The following vent installation instructions cover vertical,  
horizontal, and direct vent applications.  
VERTICAL VENTING - FOR GPG MODELS  
BAROMETRIC DRAFT CONTROLASSEMBLY  
A double-acting barometric draft control assembly is provided  
with any unit intended for chimney venting. The purpose of this  
draft control is twofold. During downdrafts it acts as a pressure  
relief control to prevent the downdraft from blowing into the heater.  
It also allows for makeup air to enter the chimney without being  
drawn through the heater. In both cases the control prevents the  
heater performance from being adversely affected by conditions  
within the chimney.  
The draft control assembly must be installed without alteration.  
This assembly is factory adjusted for horizontal application only  
and must be attached to the heater as shown in Figure 4. The  
direction in which the outlet to the draft controls assembly faces  
is arbitrary. The assembly must be fitted to the jacket cover such  
that it is plumb and level to the ground. Fasten the draft control  
assembly to the top cover using sheet metal screws at three  
locations, or more, as required.  
FIGURE 4.  
In venting systems where a continuous or intermittent back  
(positive) draft is found to exist, the cause must be determined  
and corrected. In some cases, a special vent cap may be  
required.  
Damper or other obstructions must not be installed between the  
heater and the barometric draft control assembly.  
WARNING  
Do not adjust settings on gate.  
Failure to correct back drafts may cause air contamination  
and unsafe conditions.  
When installed, the damper gate must pivot freely in the ring  
guides. This gate will automatically adjust to regulate the  
chimney draft imposed on the heater.  
Do not connect the heater to a common vent or chimney with  
solid fuel burning equipment. This practice is prohibited by  
many local building codes as is the practice of venting gas fired  
equipment to the ductwork of ventilation systems.  
VENT CONNECTIONS  
Vent connections must be made to an adequate stack or chimney.  
Refer to the National Fuel Gas Code or to the vent pipe  
manufacturer’s gas vent and chimney sizing table to properly  
design and size the venting system. Refer to Table 1 for the vent  
pipe size required for installation to the barometric draft control  
assembly outlet.  
Connectors shall not be connected to a chimney, vent or venting  
system served by a power exhauster, unless the connection is  
made on the negative pressure side of the exhauster.  
Do not connect any heater vented by natural draft to any vent  
serving mechanical draft equipment operating under positive  
vent pressure such as category III or category IV appliances.

When calculating the equivalent length of a venting system each  
90° elbow is equivalent to 10 feet (3 m) of straight pipe. In no  
case 45° elbow is equivalent to 5 feet (1.5 m) of straight pipe. In  
no case may the sum of the straight pipe lengths and the  
equivalent length of the elbows exceeds 80 feet (24.3 m).  
CAUTION  
Note the minimum vent diameter in Table 2.  
Use only the vent hood supplied with this kit. Only supplied  
hood provides required clearances from combustibles, both  
through the wall and the exterior siding. Termination of a  
sidewall vent system with a device other than the supplied  
vent hood could affect system performance and result in a  
safety hazard.

Selkirk metalbestos model PS or G vent is approved for use as  
exhaust venting on these models. Model PS is a double-wall  
vent with a 1” (25.4 mm) air space between pipes. Model G is a  
single-wall variation of model PS for use where combustible  
clearance is not a concern, see Table 4.

Note: Barometric draft control is not used in direct vent installations  
as the venting system must be sealed.  
When calculating the equivalent length of a venting system each  
90 elbow is equivalent to 10 feet of straight pipe. Each 45 elbow  
is equivalent to 5 feet (1.5 m) of straight pipe. Do not exceed the  
maximum number of elbows as shown in Table 5. In no case may  
the sum of the straight pipe lengths and the equivalent lengths of  
the elbows exceed the valves in Table 5.

ACCORDANCE WITH RECOMMENDATIONS OF SERVING GAS  
SUPPLIERS. REFER TO THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE.  
Main line gas pressure to the water heater should be between  
8” w.c. (2 kPa) minimum (dynamic pressure or net pressure)  
and 14” (3.5 kPa) maximum w.c. (static pressure). The inlet gas  
pressure must not exceed the maximum value. A service  
regulator is necessary if higher gas pressures are encountered,  
see Table 10.  
Due to pressure drop along gas supply line, to maintain  
8” w.c. (2 kPa) minimum dynamic pressure, initial gas inlet  
pressure must be set at higher than 8” w.c. (2 kPa). The gas  
regulator must be properly sized to prevent unstable control or  
excessive pressure drop.  
To prevent damage, care must be taken not to apply too much  
torque when attaching gas supply to gas valve inlet.  
Apply joint compounds (pipe dope) sparingly and only to the  
male threads of pipe joints. Do not apply compound to the first  
two threads. Use compounds resistant to the action of liquefied  
petroleum gases.

requires that all heavy piping be supported.  
THERMOMETERS (Not supplied)  
Thermometers should be obtained and field installed as shown  
in the installation diagrams.  
Thermometers are installed in the system as a means of  
detecting the temperature of the outlet water supply.  
RELIEF VALVE  
This heater is equipped with an approved temperature and  
pressure relief valve. ASME ratings cover pressure relief.  
A.G.A ratings cover release rate with temperature actuation.

WATER LINE CONNECTIONS  
Following are detailed installation diagrams for typical methods  
of application for the water heaters.  
In addition to the appliance relief valve, each remote storage  
tank that may be used in conjunction with this appliance shall  
also be installed with a properly sized, rated and approved  
temperature (ANSI) and pressure (ASME) relief valve(s). This  
relief valve shall comply with the standard for relief valves and  
automatic gas shut-off devices for hot water supply systems,  
ANSI Z21.22/CSA 4.4.  
The water heater may be installed by itself, or with a separate  
storage tank, on both single and two-temperature systems.  
When used with a separate storage tank, the circulation may be  
either by gravity or by means of a circulating pump. When a  
circulating pump is used it is important to note that the flow rate  
should be slow so that there will be a minimum of turbulence  
inside the heater.  
Your local code authority may have other specific relief valve  
requirements.  
If a water heater is installed in a closed water system, contact  
the water supplier or local plumbing inspector on how to control  
this situation.

– If the pilot does not light (or flame signal is less than 1 micro  
A) within 15 seconds system locks out and must be reset by  
turning burner switch “OFF” for a minimum of 1 minute. During  
system lockout, blower still runs.  
SETTING THE WATER HEATER TEMPERATUREAT 120°F (49°C)  
WILL REDUCE THE RISK OF SCALDS. Some states or provinces  
require settings at specific lower temperatures.  
– When the pilot flame is established (flame is sensed by flame  
rod), the main gas valve is energized.  
– Main gas flows to main burner where it’s ignited by the pilot  
flame. Now heater is in Heating Mode.  
Below you will find listed the approximate time-to-burn  
relationship for normal adult skin. Short repeated heating cycles  
caused by small hot water uses can cause temperatures at the  
point of use to exceed the thermostat setting by up to 20F°. If you  
experience this type of use, you should consider using lower  
temperature settings to reduce scald hazards.  
– During the Heating Mode:  
If gas line pressure drops below the setting point, the flame  
module is de-energized, gas valves closed, blower still runs.  
If gas line pressure drops below the setting point then gas  
line pressure increases to above the setpoint, heater starts  
again from purging cycle.

– Power is interrupted to the flame control module and blower  
motor. Gas valves are closed.  
Valves for reducing point-of-use temperature by mixing cold and  
hot water are available. Also available are inexpensive devices  
that attach to faucets to limit hot water temperatures. Contact a  
licensed plumber or the local plumbing authority.  
– Heater is in Standby Mode.  
The water temperature is controlled by a thermostat, fig. 2, which  
has two sensing elements. One sensor is located near the top  
of the tank and the other is near the center. The thermostat is set  
in the lowest position before the heater leaves the factory.  
– Thermostat is satisfied, switch opens.  
– Power is interrupted to burner, turning off blower and ignition  
control module. Solenoid and main gas valves are closed.  
– Insufficient blower pressure causes safety pressure switches  
to open.  
The dial is adjustable and may be set for 1200 (49°C) to 1800F  
(82°C) water temperature, but 1200F (49°C) is the recommended  
starting point. It is suggested the dial be placed on the lowest  
setting which produces an acceptable hot water supply. This  
will always give the most energy efficient operation. The  
temperature control has a 4F° fixed differential.  
WATER TEMPERATURE CONTROL  
ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE (Initial Start-Up)  
A minimum dynamic gas supply pressure of 8” w.c. for natural  
gas is required before making any adjustment to the gas control  
pressure regulator. Attempts to adjust the regulator during  
periods of low gas supply pressure could result in overfiring of  
the heater when the gas supply pressure returns to normal.

1. Check gas line pressure with a manometer.  
it’s a high elevation application and/or a direct vent (long air  
intake vent) application.  
Set initial gas line pressure at 9-10” w.c. before turning the  
heater “ON”.  
1. Fire Rate Adjustment (including direct vent installation).  
Read gas line pressure and gas manifold pressure when  
the heater main gas is “ON”.  
a.  
b.  
Make sure the gas supply line pressure reads  
8” w.c. (2 kPa) or higher when the heater is running.  
Adjust gas line regulator setting if the gas line pressure drops  
below 8” w.c. when heater main gas is “ON”.  
Remove the pressure regulator cover screw  
(Figure 10) and adjust the pressure by tuning the  
adjustment screw w/a small screwdriver clockwise to  
increase gas pressure into the burner and fire rate.  
Counterclockwise to decrease gas pressure and input  
rate.  
Check heater gas manifold pressure (see Table 10) using a  
manometer connected to the manifold pressure tap on the  
Robertshaw gas control valve, see Figure 10.  
Important Note: Use gas manifold pressure as initial setup  
only. The final air and gas settings should be based on fire rate  
and flue gas 02/C02 reading, see Table 10 for normal 02/C02  
reading.  
c.  
Clock gas meter, repeat above Step (b) to achieve the  
specific input rate.  
d.  
Measure flue gas O2 and/or CO2 (see Table 10) for  
acceptable O2/CO2 range.  
WARNING  
Excessive gas line pressure drop and/or burner manifold  
pressure too low may cause burner start/operate with  
excessive noise!  
If the O2 or CO2 reading is within the acceptable range,  
then proceed to Step (f).  
If the O2 or CO2 reading is out of range, adjust air  
damper is required.  
2. Cycle the burner “ON” and “OFF” several times to check its  
operation. Make sure the gas line pressure is below  
14” w.c. when burner is “OFF”. If gas line pressure exceeds  
14” w.c. when the burner is off, the gas supply line size must  
be increased to correct this problem (see Table 9 for gas  
pipe size).  
e.  
f.  
Repeat Steps (b), (c), (d) if air damper is adjusted.  
Cycle heater ON/OFF.  
g.  
Replace the gas regulator cover, pressure tap and  
tighten the damper center bolt.  
3. Check the operation of the limiting and operating controls.  
4. Check the vent system seams and joints and ensure that  
there is no discharge of flue products into the room. For  
standard vertical vent systems, check the barometric damper  
control to make sure it operates freely and there is no  
discharge of flue products into the room.  
2. Adjustment for Low NOx Emission Application.  
The water heater is preset at factory for Low Nox emission  
combustion. Due to the installation variations, fine-tune  
adjustments may be required. To lower NOx emission level  
(30PPM corrected at 3% O2 or lower is required by SCAQMD),  
air damper setting may need to be slightly increased. To  
increase air damper setting, loosen the center nut of the inlet  
air damper, rotate the damper clockwise slightly, then tighten  
the center nut. After re-set the air damper, cycle heater  
ON/OFF and check fire-rate and flue gas CO2/O2 reading.  
5. Check the input rate by clocking the gas meter.  
ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE FOR FIRE-RATE,  
LOW NOX AND HIGH ELEVATION (Fine-Tune)  
An acceptable input rate is within 2% of the rated input for the  
model. Should it be necessary to adjust the gas pressure to the  
burner and/or air damper of the blower to obtain the full input  
rate, these steps should be followed:  
3. Adjustment for High Elevation Application  
Installation above 2000 feet sea level require new air damper  
settings. All the final settings should be based on flue gas  
CO2/O2 reading, see Table 10. To increase air damper setting,  
loosen the center bolt of the inlet air damper, rotate the damper  
clockwise slightly, then tighten the center bolt. After re-setting  
the air damper, cycle heater ON/OFF and check fire-rate and  
flue gas CO2/O2 reading.  
WARNING  
Never set burner combustion too lean (causing noisy  
operation) or too rich (causing combustion chamber premature  
failure) see Table 10 for proper settings.  
WARNING  
WARNING  
Never set air damper outside of its adjustment range of the

State UN•LIME® Delimer is an easy to handle patented food  
grade acid formulated specifically for lime scale removal from  
all types of water using equipment. Available in 1 gallon (part  
no. 4763) and 5 gallon (part no. 4813) sizes. Hydrochloric base  
acids are not recommended for use on glass-lined tanks.  
DRAINING  
The heater must be drained if it is to be shut down and exposed  
to freezing temperatures. Maintenance and service procedures  
may also require draining the heater.  
1. Turn off the heater electrical disconnect switch.  
2. Close the cold water inlet valve to heater.  
3. Open a nearby hot water faucet to vent the system.  
4. Open the heater drain valve.  
State Form No. 4800 entitled “Why, When and How”, describes  
tank cleaning methods and materials. UN•LIME® and the booklet  
may be obtained through your State dealer or distributor.  
The cleanout opening is shown in Figure 9.  
To clean heater through cleanout opening, proceed as follows:  
5. If the heater is being drained for an extended shutdown, it is  
suggested the drain valve be left open this period.  
1. Turn off water inlet valve, the heater electrical disconnect  
switch and open drain valve.  
• Follow FILLING instructions when restoring hot water service.  
2. Remove outer cover plate from lower side of heater jacket.  
3. Remove cover from cleanout opening.  
SEDIMENT REMOVAL  
Waterborne impurities consist of the particles of soil and sand  
which settle out and form a layer of sediment on the bottom of  
the tank.  
4. Remove lime, scale or sediment using care not to damage  
the glass lining.  
5. Inspect cleanout plate gasket; if new gasket is required,  
replace with State part no. 99038.  
For convenience, sediment removal and lime scale removal  
should be performed at the same time.  
6. Install cleanout plate. Be sure to draw plate up tight by  
tightening screws securely.  
LIME SCALE REMOVAL  
7. Close drain valve, open water inlet line and turn on the burner  
electrical disconnect switch.  
The amount of calcium carbonate (lime) released from water is  
in direct proportion to water temperature and usage. The higher  
the water temperature or water usage, the more lime deposits  
are dropped out of the water. This is the lime scale which forms  
in pipes, heaters and on cooking utensils.  
8. Check for water leakage.  
9. Replace outer jacket cover plate.  
RELIEF VALVE  
Lime accumulation not only reduces the life of the equipment

THIS PRECAUTION COULD MEAN CONTACT WITH EXTREMELY  
HOT WATER, PASSING OUT OF THE VALVE, DURING THIS  
CHECKINGOPERATION.  
The depth of lime build-up should be measured periodically.  
Heaters will have about 3” (76 mm) of lime build-up when the  
level of lime has reached the bottom of the cleanout opening or  
about 1” of lime build-up if it has reached the drain valve opening.  
A schedule for deliming should be set up; based on the amount  
of time it would take for a 1” (25.4 mm) build-up of lime.  
If the temperature and pressure relief valve on the heater  
discharges periodically or continuously, it may be due to thermal  
expansion of water in a closed water supply system, or, it may be  
due to faulty relief valve.  
Example 1 – Initial inspection shows 1/2” (12.7 mm) of lime  
accumulation. Therefore, the heater can be  
delimed once a year.  
Thermal expansion is the normal response of water when it is  
heated. In a closed system, thermal expansion will cause the  
system pressure to build until the relief valve actuation pressure  
is equaled. Then, the relief valve will open, allowing some water  
to escape, slightly lowering the pressure.  
Example 2 – Initial inspection shows 2” (50.8 mm) of lime  
accumulation. Therefore, the heater should be  
delimed every 3 months.  
Sediment and lime scale removal may be accomplished through  
the cleanout opening furnished on the heater, see FEATURES.  
The heater must be drained. See DRAINING, before removing  
cleanout cover on tank.  
Contact your water supplier or local plumbing inspector on how  
to control this situation.  
To dissolve and remove the more stubborn mineral deposits, Two common corrections are listed in the CHECKLIST AND  
State UN•LIME® Professional delimer should be used.

BURNER OPERATIONALPROBLEMS  
8. Upon completion of cleaning, return heater to operation by  
following this procedure in reverse.  
1. Refer to TROUBLESHOOTING for comprehensive service  
information provided with both heater and burner manuals.  
BAROMETRIC DRAFT CONTROL  
- FOR GPG MODELS  
NOT ENOUGH OR NO HOT WATER  
The heater is equipped with a double acting barometric draft  
control as shown in Figure 15. The damper gate must pivot  
freely in the ring guides.  
1. Be certain the electrical disconnect switch serving the water  
heater is in the ON position.  
29  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
2. Check the fuses.  
Excessive water pressure  
Excessive water temperature  
Faulty relief valve  
The electrical disconnect switch usually contains fuses.  
3. The capacity of the heater may have been exceeded by a  
large demand for hot water.  
Excessive water pressure is the most common cause of relief  
valve leakage. It is often caused by a “closed system”. If a check  
valve, back flow preventer, or pressure-reducing valve is in the  
inlet system it will not permit the expanded hot water volume to  
equalize pressure with the main. The relief valve must release  
this water or the water heater or plumbing system will be  
damaged. Refer to MAINTENANCE – RELIEF VALVES.  
4. Colder incoming water temperature will lengthen the time  
required to heat water to the desired temperature.  
If the heater was installed when incoming water  
temperature was warm, colder water creates the effect  
of less hot water.  
When such a condition is encountered, local codes or inspection  
agency should be consulted to determine which system is  
acceptable in your area. These may consist of:  
5. Look for hot water wastage and leaking or open hot water  
faucets.  
6. Sediment or lime scale may be affecting water heater  
operation. Refer to MAINTENANCE for details.  
Installation of a second relief valve with lower setting than the  
primary relief valve.  
7. Heater or burner may be dirty.  
An expansion tank of suitable size and pressure rating and  
provision to avoid water logging.  
Clean all heater flue pipes and flue connector, see  
MAINTENANCE.  
HOT WATER ODOR  
Have burner properly cleaned and readjusted.  
On occasion, hot water may develop a strong odor. If this occurs,  
drain the heater completely, flush thoroughly, and refill. If the  
problem persists, chlorinating of the heater and replacement of  
the factory installed magnesium anodes with aluminum anodes  
may correct the condition.  
8. Burner may not be firing at proper rate.  
Check gas pressure  
9. Burner fan wheel may be dirty.  
Occasionally water softener companies recommend removal of  
heater anodes for odor reasons.  
Clean fan wheel with a soft brush.  
10. Reset button on high limit control (Figure 1) has operated.  
Press reset button.  
CAUTION  
Unauthorized removal of the anode(s) will void the warranty.  
For further information contact your dealer.

and the troubleshooting section of burner manual before  
continuing.  
Check for the continuity between the flame rod and  
sensor connection at Honeywell flame control module  
by the ohm meter.  
Make sure the appliance is connected to a 120 Vac power supply,  
burner switch is “ON” and manual gas valve is in the “ON”  
position, and all electrical connections are secure before  
continuing to troubleshoot this appliance.  
Check for ignitor wire connections and spark leakage  
(call AOS service center for steps of spark leakage  
checking).  
MOTOR WILL NOT RUN  
Following burner manual instructions to re-install the  
pilot assembly.  
1. Confirm 120 Vac. Also, to verify correct polarity, check for  
120 Vac between black wire and G.  
6. Turn on the Robertshaw gas valve, turn the burner switch to  
“ON” position. Cycle the heater ON/OFF several times to  
ensure the problem is solved.  
If there is no voltage, check for a loose connection or open  
switch at the high limit or thermostat.  
2. If there is 120 volts between black wire and white wire, check  
for loose connections or a locked rotor. If the rotor cannot be  
freed the motor and blower assembly must be replaced.  
MOTORRUNSCONTINUOUSLY, PREPURGETIMEELAPSESBUT  
MAIN FLAME NOT ESTABLISHED (BURNER LIGHT NEVER ON)  
1. When the heater is first installed, gas line must be purged  
properly prior to start-up. This heater is equipped with a flame  
control module that only allows one “trial for ignition” for  
15 seconds and locks out if no flame signal is detected. For  
initial start-up, two or more resets may be required to ensure  
that all the air has been purged from the gas pilot line. To  
reset the heater, turn the burner power switch to “OFF” position  
for at least one minute, then turn it back “ON”.  
BURNER LOCKOUT ONCE IN A WHILE  
Under this condition, the burner operates properly for days, and  
burner lockout occurs once in a while. The root causes for the  
burner occasional lockout include: (1) Gas inlet pressure too  
low; (2) Condensation over the ignitor area; (3) the pilot flame is  
too weak to light the main flame reliably; (4) the pilot air/gas ratio  
is out of range causing pilot flame to be unreliable.  
2. Check for gas supply line manual valves in “ON” position,  
and line pressure. Make sure the pilot manual gas cock  
(nearby the main gas valve) is fully open.  
1. Turn burner switch to “OFF” position and turn off the main  
gas valve (Robertshaw®).  
2. Install manometers for gas inlet pressure, manifold pressure,  
and pilot gas pressure, see Figure 12 for the pressure ports  
location).  
3. After the 45-seconds prepurge cycle, the pilot gas valve  
(mounted on the panel) “click” sound should be heard. If you  
hear the pilot gas energized, proceed to Step 5.  
3. Check for the gas inlet pressure, reset the service regulator  
(if required) to get 9” w.c. (2.2 kPa) - 10” w.c. (2.4 kPa) inlet  
pressure while the burner is in the “OFF” position.  
4. Check 24 Vac control circuit in the following systematic  
approach:  
4. Turn the burner “ON”,  
Check for 24V between “24V” and “GND” of Honeywell Flame  
Control Module, which is located inside the burner control  
panel. If voltage is OK, proceed to Step 5.  
Take blower pressure at the pressure port during the  
purge cycle, see Figure 12 for location.  
If there’s no voltage, check for 24V between the air switch  
“COM” terminal and GND (the air switch is mounted on the  
control panel, the switch cover needs to be removed to access  
the wiring terminal “COM” and “NO”). If there’s no 24 V, check  
for a loose connection between the 24V transformer and air  
switch, or a defective transformer.  
Take the pilot gas pressure at the same pressure port  
during the ignition period (following 45 seconds purge  
cycle).  
The pilot gas pressure should be 0.6” - 0.9” w.c. higher  
than blower pressure, if not, adjust the pilot gas regulator  
(during the ignition cycle, see Figure 12.  
If there’s 24V at “COM” terminal, check for 24V between the  
air switch terminal “NO” (normally open) and GND. If there’s  
no 24V, the air switch pressure may be set too high or a  
defective air switch or loose connections of pressure sensing  
tubings. To lower the air switch setting, make sure the blower  
is running and blower wheel and air inlet are free from dirt,  
counterclockwise turn the switch setting-screw until the switch  
is closed. Call the State Technical Center before you reset  
the switch.  
If burner lights on during the ignition cycle, cycle the  
unit on/off several times to ensure pilot system is  
reliable. Turn off the burner, then follow Step 6.  
5. Turn the burner “OFF”, follow burner manual instructions to  
remove the pilot assembly (also refer to Figure 12 in this  
manual) and procedures to check pilot assembly. Items to  
check for the pilot system include:  
Check for condensation over ignitor area.  
Check for the ignitor gap (1/8” - 3/16”).  
If there’s 24V at “NO” terminal of the air switch, check for 24V  
at the air intake pressure switch connectors, (this switch is  
only supplied for direct vent systems). If there’s no 24V at the  
switch connectors, check for loose connections, air intake  
blockage, or a defective air switch.  
Check for the thermal cutoff continuity by ohm meter,  
replace it if the thermal cutoff is open.  
Check for the low gas pressure switch by ohm meter  
(while pilot gas pressure is 7” w.c. [1.7 kPa] or higher).  
Do not proceed to Step 5 unless 24V is detected at “24V”  
terminal of the Honeywell Module.

connection.  
burner pilot flame through the burner peek-hole. If the pilot  
flame is established inside the burner, then proceed to  
Step 6.  
3. Check for gas supply line pressure. The gas line pressure  
before the valve should be maintained at minimum  
8” w.c. when main flame is “ON”. If the gas line pressure  
drops below 8” w.c. (2 kPa), the service regulator pressure  
setting must be increased to keep 8” w.c. (2 kPa) minimum  
gas pressure. After adjusting the gas regulator setting, turn  
off the heater, make sure the gas line pressure does not  
exceed 14” w.c. (3.5 kPa) if it does exceed 14” w.c. (3.5 kPa)  
static pressure, the gas supply line size must be increased  
accordingly to avoid gas line pressure exceeding 14” w.c.  
(3.5 kPa)  
Turn the burner switch to “OFF” position for at least one minute  
to reset the heater.  
Check for 24V between “PV” terminal and “MV/PV” terminal  
after 45 seconds prepurge cycle (this 24V may only last  
15 seconds starting after 45S prepurge). If there’s no 24V at  
the “PV” terminal ever, and there’s 24V at “24V” terminal, the  
Honeywell flame control module needs to be replaced.  
If 24V is detected for a period of 15 seconds, check for the  
changes of gas supply line pressure when the pilot gas valve  
is energized. If no visible pressure change during the pilot  
ignition period, check for loose connection of the pilot valve or  
a defective pilot gas valve.  
4. Check the gas valve manifold pressure (refer to Table 10),  
see ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE to adjust the manifold  
pressure.  
5. Check for defective gas valve for failing to open or shut off.  
Adjust the pilot gas regulator setting during the pilot ignition  
period (15 seconds). Do not set too much or too little pilot  
gas. This adjustment should only be performed during the  
15 seconds ignition period. A clockwise or counter-clockwise  
0.5 to 1 turn should be able to correct the problem. Refer to  
burner manual for detailed pilot gas setting procedure.  
6. Verify that the air supply is adequate. The air inlet screen or  
blower wheel may be restricted.  
7. Check the installation for proper ventilation, see AIR  
REQUIREMENTS.  
If still no pilot flame inside the burner, check for the spark 8. Verify the air switch setting is not too high.

insufficient draft, and proper operation of the barometric draft  
control, see VENTING.  
6. Pilot flame established but not detected by the flame control  
module. Use Micro Amp meter to measure flame signal during  
the pilot ignition period. Refer to burner manual for testing  
procedures.  
NOISYBURNER OPERATION  
1. Check for flue gas excess O2 or CO2 reading (refer to Table  
10). If combustion is too lean (flue gas O2 reads more than  
7.5%), the combustion flame front may not be stable, which  
will cause noisy operation. See ADJUSTMENT.  
If pilot flame is confirmed visually through the burner peek  
hole, and the flame signal is zero, the thermal-cutoff safety  
switch (mounted nearby the flame rod, inside the burner mixing  
chamber) may be broken or check for loose wire connections  
or low gas switch (mounted inside control panel) may be  
broken. If the thermal cutoff switch or low gas switch is broken  
2. Check the venting system for the correct sizing, excess or  
insufficient draft, and proper operation of the barometric draft  
control, see VENTING.  
(by checking the switch continuity), the switches must be 3. If the burner operation is still noisy, then remove the burner,  
replaced before the heater can operate again.  
examine the burner diffuser, blast-tube tip, anti-flashback  
corrugated tube, center mixing, refer to the burner manual for  
details.  
If it’s confirmed that the thermal cutoff switch is damaged  
(open), call the State Technical Center to analyze the root  
cause (too lean combustion) and proper gas/air ratio  
adjustment. Flashback will cause the thermal cutoff switch  
broken (open).  
GAS FAILS TO SHUT OFF  
Check for defective gas valve or thermostat. If operation is  
incorrect, replace.  
If the flame signal is not zero but below 1µA, relocate flame  
rod or replace flame rod will be required. Refer to burner  
manual for detailed procedure of replacing flame rod.
