Installing the 20HI Water Heater continued....
WARNING: Combustible construction refers to adjacent walls and ceilings and should
not be confused with combustible or ammable products and materials. Combustible and/
or ammable products and materials should never be stored in the vicinity of this or any
gas appliance.
20HI Installation
The water heater should be installed far from heat sources, ammable and dangerous
materials. Because of natural air movement in a room or other enclosed space, ammable
vapors can be carried some distance from where their liquids are being used or stored. The
open ame of the water heater’s main burner can ignite these vapors causing an explosion
or re which may result in severe burns, death or property damage.
Raising the water heater will reduce, BUT NOT eliminate the possibility of lighting the
vapor of any ammable liquids which may be improperly stored or accidentally spilled.
If the water heater is installed in a garage, it should be installed so that the direct ignition
system and main burner are no less than 18 inches above the garage oor.
Hot and cold water lines should be insulated to conserve water and energy.
The water heater must be located so it is not subject to physical damage, for example, by
moving vehicles, area ooding, etc.
The water heater should be installed with the proper venting materials and termination
suitable for Category III venting. Failure to install and properly vent the water heater to the
outdoors as outlined in the Venting Section of this manual can result in unsafe operation.
Owner must refer to vent manufacturer’s instructions and specications. Z-Flex information
can be found at www.novaex.com, please refer to page 32 for additional links.
For other than a direct vent appliance, the appliance must be located as close as
practicable to a chimney or gas vent.
DO NOT install water heater where subject to vibrations or on the road use.
DO NOT install the water heater in Recreational Vehicles, Mobile Homes, Boats and other
Watercraft.
DO NOT install the water heater near vents for heating or cooling. A minimum of 4 feet
should be maintained.
If the clearances stated on the Instruction/Warning Label, located on the side panel of the
heater dier, install the water heater according to the clearances stated on the label.
