Type B venting is recommended with these heaters. See table Vl FOR TYPICAL VENTING APPLICATION.
VENT CONNECTION WARNING THE PURPOSE OF RELIEF VALVE IS TO AVOID EXCESSIVE PRESSURE OR TEMPERATURE INTO THE STEAM RANGE, WHICH MAY CAUSE SCALDING AT FIXTURES, TANK EXPLOSION, SYSTEM OR HEATER DAMAGE. NO VALVE IS TO BE PLACED BETWEEN THE RELIEF VALVE AND TANK. Vent connections must be made to an adequate stack or chimney. Size and install proper size vent pipe. Do not reduce pipe size to less than that of the draft hood outlet.

energy efficient operation of the water heater. The water temperature adjusting dial was factory set at the lowest temperature; all the way clockwise to the mechanical stop. Turning increases temperature and clockwise the dial counterclockwise reduces temperature. TEMPERATURE REGULATION SETTING THE WATER HEATER TEMPERATURE AT 120°F (49°c) (APPROX. " " MARK ON FACE OF THERMOSTAT) WILL REDUCE THE RISK OF SCALDS. Some states require settings at specific lower temperatures.
• If the back draft cannot be corrected by the normal method or if a suitable draft cannot be obtained, a blower type flue gas exhauster must be employed to assure proper venting and correct combustion. ignite rapidly; give reasonably quiet operation; cause no excessive flame lifting from the burner ports. Make sure that the flow of combustion and ventilation air is not blocked.
