Winterizing your Water Heater
If your water heater plumbing system is equipped with a bypass kit,
use it to close off the water heater. Drain the water heater
completely and leave the water heater closed off (out of the system)
in the bypass position particularly if you are introducing antifreeze
into the plumbing system.
Antifreeze can be very corrosive to the anode rod creating
premature failure and leave sediment in the tank. If the plumbing
system is not equipped with a bypass kit, and you intend to
winterize by adding antifreeze to the system, remove the anode rod
(storing it for the winter) and replace it with a 3/4 inch drain plug.
If the user of this appliance fails to maintain it in the condition in which it
was shipped from the factory or if the appliance is not used solely for its
intended purpose or if the appliance is not maintained in accordance with
the instructions in this manual then the risk of a fire and/or the production
of carbon monoxide exists which can cause personal injury, property dam-
age or loss of life.
