Important Information  
READ CAREFULLY  
The following terms are used throughout this manual to bring attention to the  
presence of hazards at various risk levels, or to important information concerning  
product life.  
DANGER  
CAUTION  
Indicates an imminently hazardous  
situation, which, if not avoided, will result  
in death, serious injury or substantial  
property damage.  
Indicates potentially hazardous situation,  
which, if not avoided, may result in  
moderate or minor injury or property  
damage.  
NOTICE  
WARNING  
Indicates special instructions on  
installation, operation or maintenance,  
which are important but not related to  
personal injury hazards.  
Indicates a potentially hazardous  
situation, which, if not avoided, could  
result in death, serious injury or  
substantial property damage.  
DANGER  
Hotter water increases the risk of scald injury. Scalding may occur within five (5) seconds at a  
temperature setting of 140°F (60°C). To protect against hot water injury, install an ASSE  
approved mixing valve in the water system. This valve will reduce point of discharge  
temperature by mixing cold and hot water in branch water lines. A licensed plumbing  
professional or local plumbing authority should be consulted.  
NOTICE  
The water heater is equipped with an energy cut out device to prevent overheating. Should  
overheating occur or the gas supply fails to shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the  
water heater and call a qualified service technician.  
Whenever the water heater is filled with cold water, condensate will form on the cool tank  
surface and drops of water will fall on the hot burner and combustion chamber surfaces  
producing a “sizzling” noise. Condensation is normal and does not indicate a leak. It will  
disappear when the tank becomes heated.  
CAUTION  
The water heater, when set at a lower temperature setting, is not capable of producing hot water  
of sufficient temperature for sanitizing purposes.

Important Information  
NOTICE  
The lower the temperature setting, the greater the energy efficiency, both to heat the water and  
to maintain the storage temperature during standby periods. Lower water temperatures also  
extend tank life. Remember, no water heating system will provide exact temperatures at all  
times. Allow a few days of operation at this setting to determine the correct temperature setting  
consistent with the requirements for the installation.  
WARNING  
Do not operate the water heater or Accessory Module without the Accessory Module cover in  
place. Do not operate the water heater or Setback Control without the Setback Control Junction  
Box Assembly cover in place.  
Do not operate water heater, Accessory Module, and Setback Control with jumpered or absent  
controls or safety devices.  
Turn off or disconnect the electrical power supply to the water heater and its accessories before  
servicing. Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can  
cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.  
All electrical wiring must be installed and grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the  
absence of local codes, the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 and/or CSA C22 Electrical  
Code.  
Do not use wire holders to the right of the water heater gas valve. The screws used for the wire  
holders can damage the water heater internal components.  
For energy efficient operation of your water heater, the suggested initial water temperature setting is  
120˚F (49˚C). During the winter season, or any cold period, you may desire a higher water temperature  
setting to adjust for the colder incoming water. This adjustment, however, may cause additional  
condensation to form on the cooler tank surface. This does not mean the tank is leaking. During summer  
months, the warmer incoming water temperatures will benefit the performance of your water heater and  
reduce the amount of condensation developed.  
Condensation does not mean your tank is leaking. Over 40% of reported tank leaks on installation are  
proven to be condensation. To avoid unnecessary expense and inconvenience, make sure the tank is  
leaking before calling a service technician.  
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.  
Review this instruction manual  
before setting temperature  
at water heater.  
Feel water before bathing or  
showering.  
Temperature limiting valves  
are available.

Setback Control Installation  
Locate the Setback Control Junction Box Assembly  
Step 7: Place the Setback Control Junction Box Assembly on top of the water heater. This assembly must  
face the front of the water heater, and it must be located close to the centerline of the water heater. This is  
shown in Figure 34. The Setback Control Junction Box Assembly must be located as far from the draft  
hood as possible, if installed on an atmospheric water heater.  
Move the Setback Control  
Junction Box Assembly as  
far from the draft hood (or  
blower) as possible

Sensor must be positioned to the left of the water heater gas control. The Leak Sensor must sit flat on the  
floor or in the drain pan.  
Position the Leak Sensor 3” from the Air Slots or  
if not Present, Position it 6” from the Doorway

WARNING  
The Leak Sensor can be mounted in a water heater drain pan. If the installation does not use a  
drain pan, the dam should be used to corral the water heater tank leak to the Leak Sensor.  
The bottom of the Leak Sensor must be touching the floor. Failure to do so will result in  
inaccurate leak detection.

Inlet Shut-off Valve Installation  
In the following section, the instructions detail how to install the Inlet Shut-off Valve. If installed,  
this device will shut off the water supply to the water heater after the Leak Sensor has sensed  
and verified a water heater tank leak has occurred. The Accessory Module and Leak Sensor  
must be installed for the Inlet Shut-off Valve to work with the water heater gas control.  
The inlet shut-off valve can take up to 16 minutes to close, if installed, after a water heater tank  
leak is sensed and verified.  
Unpack the Inlet Shut-off Valve  
Step 1: Remove the Inlet Shut-off Valve and its components from their packaging, as shown in Figure 70.  
Figure 70  
Prepare the Water Heater for the Installation of the Inlet Shut-off Valve  
Step 2: If the water heater is already installed and the water heater is full of water, pressure must be  
removed from the water heater tank, and the tank must be at least partially drained.  
WARNING  
If installed properly, the Inlet Shut-off Valve will prevent continuous flow when a water heater  
tank leak is detected and verified. If damage will occur, a drain pan must be installed and piped  
to an adequate floor drain.
