Installation; General - State Water Heaters 110C Installation Manual And Owner's Manual

INSTALLATION

1. Follow all local codes, or in the absence of local codes, follow the current edition of the National Fuel
Gas Code: ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 in the USA or CAN/CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and propane installation
code in Canada.
2. All gas water heaters require careful and correct installation to ensure safe and efficient operation.
This manual must be followed exactly. Read the "Safety Guidelines" section.
3. The manifold gas pressure is preset at the factory. It is computer controlled and should not need
adjustment.
4. Maintain proper space for servicing. Install the unit so that it can be connected or removed easily.
Refer to the "Clearances" section on p. 9 for proper clearances.
5. The electrical connection requires a means of disconnection, to terminate power to the water heater
for servicing and safety purposes.
6. Do not install the unit where the exhaust vent is pointing into any opening in a building or where the
noise may disturb your neighbors. Make sure the vent termination meets the required distance by
local code from any doorway or opening to prevent exhaust from entering a building. (Refer to p. 11,
16, and 17.)
7. Carefully plan the installation location of the heater and vent terminations. Particles from flour,
aerosols, lint, and other contaminants may clog the air intake. This could reduce the operation of the
fan causing improper combustion and reduced life of the water heater. Ensure that the area around
the heater and vent termination is free of dust and debris. Regular maintenance is recommended is
environments with these items in the air.
8. For the 110C, 310C, and 510C models: A condensate collector and trap (100266140 & 100266139)
are required to be installed in the venting system when there is more than 8 feet (2.4 m) of equivalent
vent length, not including the sidewall termination. 87° elbow is equivalent to 5 ft. (1.5 m) of vent
length. The condensate collector must be installed on the heater's flue. The condensate trap and
collector are required on all vertical installations.
