Minimum Clearances

Failure to adhere to these installation and operating instructions
may create a hazard to life and property and will nullify the
warranty.
This installation must allow access to the front of the water heater and
adequate clearance must be provided for servicing and operating this water
heater. The water heater may be installed on either a combustible or non-
combustible floor. If the water heater is to be installed directly on carpeting, it
must be installed on top of a metal or wood panel extending beyond the full
width and depth of the appliance by at least 3 in (7.6 cm) in any direction or, if
the appliance is to be installed in an alcove or closet, the entire floor must be
covered by the panel. The minimum clearances to combustibles for this water
heater are: 0 in (0 cm) from the sides and rear, 5 in (12.7 cm) from the front of
the jacket, 0 in (0 cm) from the vent connector and 15 in (38.1 cm) from the
jacket top. Increased distances provide greater clearances for servicing.
