Use and Care Manual

NEW PILOT ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION:
Verify which burner configuration your water heater has, and
then use the appropriate, subsequent installation instructions:
Installation Configuration # 1 Burner without
Bracket. See Figure 7.
Attach the pilot adapter bracket to the main burner using one
Pilot Assembly Attachment Screw, as shown in Figure 7.
Attach the new pilot assembly to the pilot adapter bracket
using another Pilot Assembly Attachment Screw as shown in
Figure 8.
Insert the new pilot assembly by placing the connection ends
through the hole (combustion chamber side) on the burner access
door.
Push the orange grommet into the hole of the door until it is fully
seated. See Figure 9.
Installation Configuration # 2 Burner with Bracket
already installed. See Figure 10.
Attach the pilot to the bracket burner using one Pilot Assembly
Attachment Screw, as shown in Figure 11.
Insert the new pilot assembly by placing the connection ends
through the hole (combustion chamber side) on the burner access
door. See Figure 9.
Push the orange grommet into the hole of the door until it is fully
seated.
IMPORTANT: Take care not to damage the orange grommet
when you install it. Attach the new pilot assembly to the bracket
on the burner and secure it with the new pilot assembly attachment
screw (supplied). All replacement pilot assemblies attach directly
to the burner.
Route the pilot supply line and wiring through the pilot tube clip
then attach the clip to the burner supply tube. While holding the
orange grommet in place, snug up the thermopile wiring, pilot
supply line and piezo ignitor wiring so there is little to no to slack
between the main burner and the burner. Ensure that the fiberglass
sleeving between the pilot and the grommet is covering the lengths
of the piezo electrode and thermopile wiring. See Figure 11.
DO NOT attach replacement pilot assembly to burner supply
tube if applicable.
7. BURNER ACCESS DOOR GASKET REMOVAL AND
INSTALLATION: Remove the old burner access door
gasket from the combustion chamber and burner access
door. Clean the surfaces to which the gasket was attached.
If the old gasket was attached with an adhesive, a fine wire
brush and soap and water solution may be used to remove
the old gasket material and adhesive.
!
WARNING! DO NOT use any flammable liquids such
as gasoline, paint thinners, or solvents to remove the old
gasket material and adhesive (if applicable). Place the
new gasket on the clean and dry side (combustion
chamber side) of the burner access door. If the gasket is
equipped with peel and stick adhesive, peel off the pull
away backing from the new burner access door gasket
and install the gasket on the clean and dry side (com-
bustion chamber side) of the burner access door. Ensure
that the gasket used for the tamper resistant screws
align with those in the burner access door.
8. INSTALLING THE BURNER ACCESS DOOR
ASSEMBLY: Remove the Qty. 4 (four) Speed Clips
that are located at the inner door opening attached to the
combustion chamber and discard them. Install the new,
Qty. 4 (four) Speed Clips that are provided from the kit.
Re-install and secure the burner assembly to the water
heater with the new, Qty. 4 (four), T20 Tamper Resistant
Screws that are provided from the kit. Ensure that the
door gasket is located correctly.
