Combuson Air Requirements
This water heater requires adequate combuson air for venlaon and diluon of ue gases. Failure to provide
adequate combuson air can result in unit failure, re, explosion, serious bodily injury or death. Use the follow-
ing methods to ensure adequate combuson air is available for correct and safe operaon of this water heater.
Important: Combuson air must be free of corrosive chemicals. Do not provide combuson air from
corrosive environments. Appliance failure due to corrosive air is not covered by warranty.
