Water heaters for propane gas are different from natural gas models. A natural gas heater will not function
safely on propane gas and no attempt should be made to convert a heater from natural gas to propane gas.
Propane gas must be used with great caution. It is highly explosive and heavier than air. It collects first in the
low areas making its odor difficult to detect. If propane gas is present or even suspected, do not attempt to
find the cause yourself. Ventilate the room, then call your gas supplier or service agent. Keep area clear until
a service agent has been called.

Page 6: Thermal Expansion (Closed System)
UNDESIRABLE OPENINGS, CAUSING POOR COMBUSTION. SOOTING MAY RESULT WITH AN INCREASED RISK OF ASPHYXIATION. THERMAL EXPANSION (CLOSED SYSTEM) Thermal expansion occurs in any hot water system when system water is heated or “recovered” during periods of non-use. If the system is operated in an “open” condition such as being connected directly to the city main, the volume of expanded water generated during the recovery periods can be dissipated back through the “open”... -

Page 13: Relief Valve
The depth of lime build-up should be measured periodically. Heaters will have about 3” of lime build-up when the level of lime has reached the bottom of the cleanout opening or about 1” of lime build-up if it has reached the drain valve opening. A schedule for deliming should be set-up;... -

6. Using a wire brush, remove soot from flue passages in heater tank. CAUTION While cleaning tank flue passages, care must be taken that brush does not come in contact with the combustion chamber lining as damage could occur. • If burner flue collector flange gaskets are damaged, replace. VENT SYSTEMS Examine the vent system every six months for obstruction and/or deterioration of vent piping. -
Page 15: Replacement Parts
Excessive water pressure is the most common cause of relief valve leakage. It is often caused by a “closed system”. If a check valve is in the inlet system it will not permit the expanded hot water volume to equalize pressure with the main. The relief valve must release this water or the water heater or plumbing system will be damaged. -
