plate before connecng the gas.
2. The gas supply line must be gas ght, sized and
installed so as to provide a supply of a gas
sufficient to meet the maximum demand of the
heater without loss of pressure.
3. The supplied shut off valve must be installed in
the upstream of the gas line to permit servicing.
4. Flexible pipe and any appliance connector valve
used for gas piping must be types approved by
naonally recognized agencies.
5. Any compound used on the threaded joint of the
gas piping must be a type which resists the acon

7. Aer compleon of gas pipe connecons, all
joints including the heater must be checked for
gas ghtness by means of leak detector soluon,
soap and water, or an equivalent nonflammable
soluon, as applicable. (Since some leak test
soluons, including soap and water, may cause
corrosion or stress cracking, the piping must be
rinsed with water aer tesng, unless it has been
determined that the leak test soluon is
noncorrosive.)
8. Aer compleng pipework, secure the heater to
the floor. Use the 2 screws provided, as shown in
the drawing. To avoid deforming the floor plate,
do not over torque the screws.
