Please review the following checklist and make any required installation upgrades or changes.
Lighting Instructions Read and understand these directions thoroughly before attempting to light or re-light the pilot. Make sure the view port is not missing or damaged. (See Figure 23) Make sure the tank is completely filled with water before lighting the pilot.
Robertshaw Gas Control Valve/Thermostat - Lighting Instructions FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING I WARNING: If you do not follow theseinstructions exactly, a fire or explosion I may result causing property damage, personalinjury or loss of life. I A.
Burner Flames Inspect the burner flames through the viewport and compare them to the drawings in Figure 18. A properly operating burner should produce a soft blue flame. Blue tips with yellow inner cones are satisfactory. The tips of the flame may have a slight yellow tint.
NOTE: During low demand periods when hot water is not being used, a lower thermostat setting will reduce energy losses and may satisfy your normal hot water needs. If hot water use is expected to be more than normal, a higher thermostat setting may be required to meet the increased demand.
Anode Rod/Water Odor Each water heater contains at least one anode rod, which will slowly deplete while protecting the glass-lined tank from corrosion and prolonging the life of the water heater. Once the anode is depleted, the tank will start to corrode, eventually developing a leak.
Temperature and Pressure Relief Valve Explosion Harzard Temperature-pressure relief valve must comply with ANSI Z21.22-CSA 4.4 and ASME code. • Properly sized temperature- pressure relief valve must be installed in opening provided. • Can result in overheating and excessive tank pressure.
2. Check the burner to see if it is dirty or clogged. The burner may be cleaned with soap and hot water (Figure 24). PILOT ASSEMBLY SCREWS, BURNER (BOTTOM VIEW) FIGURE 24. Replacing the Thermocouple 1. Remove the manifold/burner assembly as directed previously.
10. Reposition the two piece wire connector in the manifold door opening and secure it with the retainer clip. 11. Carefully bend the new pilot tube and thermocouple to match the bend of the manifold tube. NOTE: When bending DO NOT crimp or crease the pilot tube or thermocouple.
7. Reconnect the igniter wire. 8. Turn gas supply on and refer to the Lighting Instruc- tions. , With the burner lit, check the gas control valve/ thermostat supply line, two piece wire connector, manifold tube, and pilot tube connections for leaks. Check for leaks by brushing on an approved noncorrosive leak detection solution.
Replacing the Gas Valve: 1. To replace the gas control valve/thermostat, reassemble in reverse order. When replacing the gas control valve/thermostat, thread a correctly sized pipe into the inlet and use it to turn the gas valve (clockwise.) DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN or damage may result.
