WARNING This water heater needs fresh air for safe operation and must be installed so there are provisions for adequate combustion and ventilation air. Insufficient air supply will cause a recirculation of combustion products resulting in contamination that may be hazardous to life. This will result in carboning or sooting of the combustion chamber, burners, and flue tubes and creates a risk of asphyxiation. Water heater materials of construction, products of combustion and the fuel con
