APPENDIX: HORIZONTAL MOUNTING OF POU MODELS
As stated on page 12, point-of-
use (POU) models may be mounted
horizontally. Note the following:
If a POU model is to be mounted
horizontally, it must be mounted
with brackets (provided). The
nipples must face toward the right
as shown in Figure 27.
Two-chamber and four-chamber
models cannot be mounted
horizontally. They must be mounted
vertically (nipples facing upward).
This procedure is a supplement to
“Mount Your Water Heater,” page
12.
NOTICE: Read “Minimum Clearances”
(Figure 2, page 11) before you start.
