of the hot
water released by the
valve. The water may
be hot enough to
create a scald hazard.
The water should be
released into a
suitable drain to
prevent injury or
property damage.
DANGER: Hotter
water increases the
potential for Hot Water
Scalds.
DANGER: Failure
to perform the
recommended
Routine Preventative
Maintenance can harm
the proper operation
of this water heater,
which can cause
carbon
monoxide dangers,
excessive hot water
temperatures and
other potentially
hazardous conditions.
NOTICE: If the pressure relief valve on the hot water heater discharges periodically, this may be
due to a problem in the water system. Contact the water supplier or your plumbing contractor on
how to correct this. DO NOT plug the relief valve outlet.
NOTICE: After inspection, maintenance, and/ or cleaning, ensure proper operation by turning on a hot
water faucet.

Properly maintained, your water
heater will provide years of
dependable trouble-free service.
It is recommended that a periodic
inspection of the burner, relief
valve, water filter and venting
system should be made by
service personnel qualified in gas
appliance repair.
It is suggested that a routine
preventive maintenance program
be established and followed by
the user.
At least once a year, lift and release
the lever handle on the pressure
relief valve, located in the hot
outlet piping of the water heater,
to make certain the valve operates
freely. Allow several gallons to
flush through the discharge line to
an open drain.
Rapid closing of faucets or solenoid
valves in automatic water using
appliances can cause a banging
noise heard in a water pipe.
Strategically located risers in
the water pipe system or water
hammer arresting devices can be
used to minimize the problem.
