    Chemical imbalance of the water supply may affect efficiency and cause severe damage to the water heater and associated equipment. HTP recommends having water quality professionally analyzed to determine whether it is necessary to install a water softener. It is important that the water chemistry on both the domestic hot water and central heating sides are checked before installing the water heater, as water quality will affect the reliability of the system.

  • Page 14 Pressure Build-Up in a Water System When the water heater operates, the heated water expands creating a pressure build-up. This is a natural function and is one of the reasons for installing a temperature and pressure relief valve. If the cold water supply line has a built-in water meter, check valve, or pressure-reducing valve, a suitable expansion tank must be installed to prevent pressure build-up or water hammer effect.
  • Page 15  All piping and components that are used in the system must be of a nonferrous type suitable for potable water. This also applies to any sealant used.  The water heater must not be connected to any system that has been previously used for non-potable water heating. This includes piping because existing piping may have been treated with chemicals for cleaning or sealing the system in the past.

    Drafthood Operation It is important to check that the ventilation system is working properly once the water heater main burner has been lit. Wait 10 minutes after lighting the burner. Then introduce a match or candle around the opening of the drafthood. If the flame is drawn towards the opening, this indicates proper ventilation.
  • Page 21  If the water heater has been undersized.  When large amounts of hot water are drawn from the water heater in a short period of time, and the refill water is very cold. Due to the efficiency rating of this gas-fired water heater, it may produce more condensation than previous water heater models. Condensation forming on the flue tubes will drop on the burner, making a “sizzling”...
