condensatewilldamagetheheatexchanger.
Topreventcondensatedamagefollowthese
instrucons.
DONOT
• Donotallowcondensatetoenterthewater
heater.
• DonotusePVC,CPVC,ABSorgalvanizedmaterial
toventthisappliance.
• Donotconnectthecon densatedrainpipedirectly
totherainsewer.
• Donotconnectthecon densatedrainlinewithan
aircondioningevaporatorcoildrain.
MUSTDO
• Useonlyventthatisapprovedandidenfiedas
acceptableforyourparcularmodel.
• Forvercalterminaons,installacondensatedrain
andtrapascloseaspossibletotheappliance.
• Slopethevenngtowardtheapplianceaccording
totheventmanufacturersinstallaoninstrucons.

mustbeatleastthesamediameterasthedrain
line,(5/8inchNPT).
• Theendofthecondensatedrainpipeshouldbe
opentotheatmosphere.Theendshouldnotbe
underwaterorothersubstances.
• Tominimizef reezingofthecondensate,runthe
