CaseA
CaseB
-Condensate Drain Connecons-
The water heater is a high efficiency condensing model that produces condensate (acidic water). The
acidic condensate generated in the secondary heat exchanger can be neutralized by the Neutralizer acces-
sory.
CaseA:Ifaneutralizerisnotrequired
1. Connect a 1/2” FPT X 3/8” (or 1/2”) HB Adaptor to the condensate drain port at the bottom of the
water heater.
2. Connect a condensate drain tube to the 1/2” FPT X 3/8” (or 1/2”) HB Adaptor. The manufacturer
recommends the material of the condensate tube be either EPDM or PVC.
3. Leave an adequate amount of space between the end of the drain tube and the actual drain, to
facilitate proper drainage.
CaseB:Ifaneutralizerisrequired(installingtheNeutralizerassembly)
1. Connect the 1/2” FPT X 3/8” MPT Adaptor to the condensate drain port at the bottom of the water
heater.
2. Connect the Neutralizer to the 3/8” MPT connection of the adaptors. There is a flow direction indicator
on the neutralizer. Please orient the neutralizer in the proper direction.
3. Connect a 1/2” drain tube to the other end of neutralizer.
4. Leave an adequate amount of space between the end of the drain tube and the actual drain, to
facilitate proper drainage.
