Mount to Wall

1. Identify the installation location and confirm that
the installation will meet all required clearances.
2. Securely attach the water heater to the wall
using any of the holes in the wall installation
brackets which are at the top and bottom of the
water heater. Ensure that the attachment
strength is sufficient to support the weight.
Refer to the weight of the water heater in the
Specifications section.
Use a leveling tool to ensure that the water
heater is level. Proper operation requires that
the water heater be level.

upright position. Do not install upside down or on its
side.
