CHAPTER 2. INSTALLATION
2.1 INTRODUCTION
This Chapter provides the descriptions and procedures necessary to unpack, inspect and install
AERCO Innovation Water Heaters.
2.2 RECEIVING THE UNIT
Each Innovation Water Heating System is shipped as a single crated unit. The shipping weight
is shown in Table F1 in the Forward to this manual. The unit must be moved with the proper
rigging equipment for safety and to avoid equipment damage. The unit should be completely
inspected for evidence of shipping damage and shipment completeness at the time of receipt
from the carrier and before the bill of lading is signed.
NOTE:
AERCO is not responsible for lost or damaged freight. Each unit has a Tip-N-Tell indicator
on the outside of the shipping container, which indicates if the unit has been turned on its
side during shipment. If the Tip-N-Tell indicator is tripped, do not sign for the shipment. Note
the information on the carrier’s paperwork and request a freight claim and inspection by a
claims adjuster before proceeding. Any other visual damage to the packaging materials
should also be made clear to the delivering carrier.
2.3 UNPACKING
Carefully unpack the unit taking care not to damage the unit’s enclosure when cutting away
packaging materials
After unpacking, closely inspect the unit to make sure there is no evidence of damage not
indicated by the Tip-N-Tell indicator. Notify the freight carrier immediately if any damage is
detected.
Each unit is shipped with the accessory kit ordered with the unit. The specific parts you receive
depend on which accessory kit was ordered, but all kits include the following parts:
• Condensate Drain Trap (P/N 99259)
• Automatic Float Vent (P/N 99285) and Service Check Valve (P/N 99286)
• Ignitor Kit (P/N 58023)
• Flame Rod Kit (P/N 24356-2)
If the Innovation Water Heater is equipped for use with the AERCO Water Heater Management
(WHM) system, an actuator-controlled ball valve will also be included with the unit.
If optional accessories were ordered, they may be packed within the unit’s shipping container,
factory installed on the unit, or packed and shipped in a separate container. Any standard or
optional accessories shipped loose should be identified and stored in a safe place until ready for
installation or use.
