    Failure to properly vent a dryer could result in a gradual accumulation of lint on the water heater fin coils and burners, leading to a dangerous condition of vent blockage and poor unsafe combustion.

  • Page 5: Combustion Air Requirements

    This product is neither designed or approved for outside installations. COMBUSTION AIR REQUIREMENTS The AquaStar water heater holds cold water in its copper heat exchanger and water valve when not in use. Because of this, any cold air that comes in through the unit’s vent pipe is capable of freezing these components.

  • Page 6: Mounting The Heater

    Fig. 1 - Mounting the Heater The incandescent particle tray (shipped loose in the carton with the water heater) must be attached at the bottom of the water heater front cover at the time of installation. Use the screws provided. See figure 2 INCANDESCENT PARTICLE TRAY Fig.

    0.5 psig. The water heater must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or more than 0.5 psig.

  • Page 8: Gas Piping

    GAS PIPING, CONNECTIONS and Gas Regulator Before connecting the gas supply, check the rating plate on the right side of the front cover to be sure that the heater is rated for the same gas to which it will be connected. In the United States: The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

    HOT WATER TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATES 1. Unbalanced pressure in waterlines The added restriction caused by the Aquastar in the hot water system can result in uneven pressures between the cold and the hot. In such cases when mixing cold water at the tap, the lower hot water pressure may be overpowered by a much higher cold water pressure, which may cause the Aquastar burners to shut down.
