PACKAGING AND INSTALLATION KIT
All packaging materials must be removed from the water heater prior to its installation. This includes the removal of
the shipping pallet.
The installation kit (including the pressure relief valve and flow switch) may be supplied inside the water heater
casing. These kits must be removed and the components installed before the water heater is operated.
WATER HEATER APPLICATION
This water heater is designed for the purpose of heating potable water or hydronic heating applications. Its use in
an application other than this may shorten its life.
If this water heater is to be used where an uninterrupted hot water supply is necessary for the application or
business, then there should be redundancy within the hot water system design. This should ensure the continuity of
hot water supply in the event that this water heater was to become inoperable for any reason. We recommend you
provide advice to the system owner about their needs and building backup redundancy into the hot water supply
system.
Check the water heater is suitable for the gas type available. The gas type is marked on the side panel near
the gas connection entry and is also shown on the water heaters rating label.

WATER HEATER LOCATION
This water heater is supplied for outdoor or indoor installation only (depending on the model). Whether located
outdoor or indoor, the position of the water heater should be chosen with safety and service in mind. Make sure
people (particularly children) will not touch the flue outlet. The flue terminal must be clear of obstructions and
shrubbery.
Clearance must be allowed for servicing of the water heater. The water heater must be accessible without the use
of a ladder or scaffold. Make sure the pressure relief valve lever is accessible and the entire front panel and burner
assembly can be removed for service. Remember you may have to remove the entire water heater later for

Burning Appliances and the New Zealand Building Code.
The water heater must not be installed in an area with a corrosive atmosphere where chemicals are stored or
where aerosol propellants are released. Remember the air may be safe to breathe, but when it goes through a
flame, chemical changes take place which may attack the water heater.
