General Information continued-
Before proceeding, please inspect the water heater and its components for
possible damage. DO NOT install any damaged components. If damage
is evident, please contact the supplier where the water heater was
purchased, or the manufacturer listed on the rating plate for replacement
parts.
Our products incorporate components that are both environmentally safe and
harmless to health, so they can be disassembled as easily as possible and
recycled once they reach their final life stage. Recycling of materials reduces
the quantity of waste and the need for production of raw materials (e.g.
metals) which requires a substantial amount of energy and causes release of
harmful substances. Recycling procedures reduce the consumption of
natural resources, as the waste parts made of plastic and metal can be
returned to various production processes. For more information on waste
disposal, please visit your waste collection center or the store where the
product was purchased.

Locating the Water Heater

Water heaters are heat producing appliances. To avoid damage
or injury, there shall be no materials stored against the water
heater and proper care shall be taken to avoid unnecessary
contact (especially by children) with the water heater. UNDER NO
CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, SUCH AS
GASOLINE OR PAINT THINNER BE USED OR STORED IN THE
VICINITY OF THIS WATER HEATER OR ANY LOCATION FROM
WHICH FUMES COULD REACH THE WATER HEATER.
This water heater MUST be installed indoors out of the wind and
weather.
This water heater shall NOT be installed in any location where gasoline
or flammable vapors are likely to be present, unless the installation is
such to eliminate the probable ignition of gasoline or flammable
vapors.
The location of this water heater is of the utmost importance. Before
installing the water heater, select a location that is accessible to water supply
lines and the power supply. It is recommended that the water heater be
located near the center of greatest hot water usage to prevent heat loss
through the pipes.
