Pro Hybrid Electric Water Heater
DIMENSIONS AND INSTALLATION INFORMATION (IN INCHES)
FRONT & BACK CLEARANCE
REQUIREMENTS: A 7" clearance is
recommended with a minimum of 5-1/2"
air space between any object and the
front and back of the water heater and
7" on each side. Clearance is needed to
allow for removal of the front and back
covers in the event service is needed.
TOP FILTER REMOVAL
CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS:
A minimum 6" clearance is required at
the top of the water heater to pull the
filter up and remove it for cleaning. It
is critical that the hot and cold water
plumbing and the electrical connections
do not interfere with the removal of
the filter.
CONDENSATE DRAIN REQUIRED:
A primary drain pipe must be installed at
the top right side of the water heater. The
primary drain is intended to carry all
condensate away.

WATER SUPPLY CONNECTIONS: Refer to the illustration below
for suggested typical installation. The installation of unions or
flexible copper connectors is recommended on the hot and cold water
connections so that the water heater may be easily disconnected for
servicing if necessary. The HOT and COLD water connections are clearly
5-1/2"
marked and are 3/4" NPT on all models.

NOTE: Install a shut-off valve in the cold water line near the water
heater. This will enable easier service or maintenance of the unit later.
IMPORTANT: Do not apply heat to the HOT or COLD water
connections. If sweat connections are used, sweat tubing to adapter
before fitting the adapter to the cold water connections on heater.
Any heat applied to the hot or cold water connection will permanently
damage the dip tube.
