Qualified±service±personnel±are±familiar±with±vent±
system±inspections.
WARNING:
±Do±not±operate±the±water±
heater±if±the±vent±system±shows±signs±of±leaking±
exhaust.±Leaking±exhaust±could±lead±to±death,±
personal±injury,±and/or±product±failure.
For±outdoor±models,±check±the±air±intake±and±vent±
outlet±for±blockage±and/or±debris.
Condensate±Collector
CAUTIONS:±
•±±
Condensate±is±known±to±be±acidic;±refer±to±federal,±
state±(provincial),±and±local±codes±for±proper±
handling±and±discharge±methods.
•±±
Do±not±operate±without±the±condensate±collector±
drain±connected±and±routed±to±a±proper±drain±that±
can±handle±corrosive±condensate.±
This±could±cause±
the±system±to±malfunction±or±fail.±
On±a±regular±basis,±inspect±the±condensate±drain±line±
to±ensure±the±condensate±is±draining±properly.±
The±condensate±coming±from±the±water±heater±is±known±
to±be±acidic.±The±heater±features±a±built-in±condensate±
neutralizer±that±uses±CaCO
