Prevention of damage caused by freezing in cold temperatures

1. Close the gas and water valves.2. Turn off the operation button.3. Open the water supply valve from time to time to check whether water is running.4. When the water is flowing again, check for water leaks from the equipment and piping, or

follow steps 1 through 4 on p. 10 (“Initial Operation”)

The freeze prevention heaters willnot prevent the plumbing externalto the unit from freezing. Protectthis plumbing with insulation or anelectric heater. If you are stillworried that your heater willfreeze, contact the nearest Noritzagent.

When the temperature drops, the freeze-preventionheaters are automatically activated to keep the unitwarm and prevent it from freezing.

Normal cold [outside temperatures more than 5°F with no wind.]

The heater and piping can be damaged if cold temperatures cause water to freeze inside theunit. The damage can be prevented with the following method:

At these temperatures, the units have freeze prevention heaters that will prevent freezing.* Do not disconnect the power. The freeze prevention heaters will not work if the power

is disconnected.* The freeze prevention will work regardless of whether the operation button on the remote

controller has been turned on.

• If the heater or the piping is frozen, do not use the heater, or it may get damaged.• Repairs for damage caused by freezing is not covered by the warranty.

For severely cold temperatures [ ]Run water to prevent freezing

1. Push the operation button and confirmthat the operation light comes on.

2. Close the gas supply valve.3. Open a hot water fixture and let it run

for approx. 1 minute, and then checkthat the number 11 is flashing on theremote controller display* It is possible that a different number may be displayed

on the remote controller, but as long as it is flashing,you may continue..

4. Open a hot water fixture, and keep a small amount of hotwater running (.1 gal./minute or about .2” thick.* If there is a mixing valve, set it to the highest level.

5. The flow may become unstable from time to time. Checkthe flow 30 minutes later.

• This method can be appliednot only to the heater, but alsoto the water supply, waterpiping and a mixing valve.

• Remember that if the mixingvalve is set to the maximumlevel, there is a risk of scalding.

• If freezing still might occur,drain the water from the unitfollowing the steps on p. 17.

Hot water is not available whenthe hot water fixture is opened.

• Are the gas and water supply valves fully open?

• Is the water supply cut off?

• Is the hot water fixture sufficiently open?

• Is the heater frozen?

• Is the gas meter working?

• (For LP) Is there enough gas in the tank?

• Is the operation button turned on?

• Have you allowed enough time for the cold water in thepipes to drain out?

• Are the gas and water supply valves fully open?

• Is the water temperature setting appropriate ( p.11 andp.12)?

• If the supply water is at a high temperature, you mayneed to increase the flow rate through the heater to geta low temperature out of it.

Hot water is not available at lowtemperatures.

Cold water comes out when thefixture is barely opened. Onlycold water is available at lowflow rates.

• The heater stops burning when the flow of hot waterbecomes less than 0.75 GPM. Open the hot waterfixture more, and the water temperature will stabilize.

• Has there been a power failure?

• Is the power connected properly?

• The time on the controller may need to be reset after apower failure or after the power has been disconnected.Also, the hot water temperature indicator, and tub levelalarm may have been reset.

Amount of hot water

The pressure at a certainfixture is not constant.

• When hot water is demanded at other fixtures, theamount available may be reduced.

• Pressure fluctuations and other plumbing conditions cancause the temperature and pressure at a fixture to beunstable, but it should stabilize after a short time.

• To keep the temperature stable, the heater limits theamount of water that can flow through it to a smallamount initially, but the amount increases over time.

2221

Other

The Heater stops burning duringoperation.

• Are the gas and water supply valves fully open?

• Is the water supply cut off?

• Is the hot water fixture sufficiently open?

• Is the gas meter working?

• (For LP) Is there enough gas in the tank?

• This is normal on cold days.White smoke comes out of theexhaust vent on a cold day.

The hot water becomes turbid. • This is harmless. Small bubbles appear as the air in thewater is heated and depressurized rapidly to atmo-spheric pressure. It is similar to the bubbles in beer orcarbonated beverages.

Water leaks from the drain plugs onthe outlet.

• When the main unit is highly pressurized, water will leakfrom the drain plugs as a safety so that the unit is notdamaged by the high pressure.

• These plugs are pressure relief valves. If water isleaking out of them, excessive pressure is being sup-plied to the unit.

Sound

The fan can be heard afteroperation is stopped.

The fan can be heard when it isvery cold outside.

• The fan runs for a while to accelerate ignition after theoperation button is turned on.

• The fan may run to prevent freezing.

Observe the commercial gas equipment installation criteria and operation criteria. Air inlet

Size the air inlet according to the National FuelGas Code, ANSI Z223.1.

Be sure to provide an air inlet.

The air inlet needs to open to the outside airfrom the room in which the water heater is used.

To install the water heater in a kitchen or aroom with a duct, a volume of air intake equiva-lent to the volume of air going out through theduct is needed, so as not to reduce the airpressure in the room.(When air pressure in the room is reduced,the safety device on the water heater activatesand stops the heater operating.)

43 44

Gas connection Do not use piping with a diameter smaller than

the inlet diameter of the water heater. After connecting the piping, check for gas leak-

age at the inlet. Install a gas shutoff valve on the supply line. Use approved gas piping materials. Use removable connections or hex pipe.

Gas meterSelect a gas meter capable of supplying gas for thewater heater while also supplying gas to other gasequipment.

Follow the instructions from the utility.

Gas valveIf gas is not available in the area where theequipment is to be installed, or if the line is notsized correctly, the gas line will need to be re-worked for this water heater.

Gas pressureSelect gas piping with the appropriate diam-eter and a proper gas meter in order to achievesufficient gas pressure at the inlet of the waterheater during maximum burning.

Caution

Consult qualified electrician for the electricalwork.

Do not turn on the power until the electrical wiring is finished.Otherwise, electric shocks or damage to the equipment will occur.

9.Electric wiring

The power for the water heater is at 120V ACand 60Hz.Check the power consumption indicated on thelabel, and use an appropriate circuit.

Do not do connect the power supply when not inuse. When the power is off, the freeze preven-tion heater in the water heater will not activate,resulting in possible damage from freezing.

Do not let the power cord contact the gas piping.

Tie the redundant power cord outside thewater heater. Do not put the extra length inthe equipment. It may cause a fault in thewater heater.

Ground To prevent an electric shock, provide a ground

with resistance less than 100Ω. An electrical en-gineer should do the work.

The ground terminal is provided at the bottomof the water heater and is explicitly indicated.

Do not connect the ground to the city wateror gas piping. Do not tie the ground to a tele-phone line.

Installation of breaker Mount a device which shuts off the electrical path

automatically (leakage breaker) when leakagefrom electric facilities is detected (based on tech-nical criteria).

This appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of localcodes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. In Canada, the latest CSA C22.1 ElectricalCode.

Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can causeimproper and dangerous operation.

Verify proper operation after servicing.

MaintenanceThe venting system must be examined periodically by a qualified service technician to check for anyleaks or corrosion.The burner flame must be checked periodically for a proper blue color and consistency.If the flame does not appear normal, the burner may need to be cleaned.If the burner needs to be cleaned, it must be performed by a qualified service technician.Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.The pressure relief valve must be operated once a year to ensure that it is functioning properly andthere is no obstruction. Turn the power off to the unit before opening the relief valve, and make surethat water draining out of the valve will not cause any damage.If the relief valve discharges periodically, it may be due to thermal expansion in a closed water system. Contactthe water supplier or a local plumbing inspector on how to correct this situation. Do not plug the relief valve.See Operation Manual for further maintenance.Warning: There is a scald potential if the output temperature is set too high.Should overheating occur, or the gas supply fail to shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the appliance.Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service techni-cian to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control whichhas been under water.

8.Supply water and hot water pipingThis appliance suitable for potable water and space heating applications. Do not use this appliance ifany part has been underwater. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the applianceand to replace any part of the control system and gas control which has been under water.

If the water heater is installed in a closed water supply system, such as one having a backflowpreventer in the cold water supply line, means shall be provided to control thermal expansion. Contactthe water supplier or a local plumbing inspector on how to control this situation.

A pressure relief valve must be installed near the hot water outlet that is rated in accordance with andcomplying with either The Standard for Relief Valves and Automatic Shutoff Devices for Hot WaterSupply Systems, ANSI Z21.22, or The ANSI/ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section IV(“Heating Boilers”). This pressure relief valve must be capable of an hourly Btu rated temperaturesteam discharge of 119,000 Btuh. Multiple valves may be used. The pressure relief capacity must notexceed 150 psig. No valve shall be placed between the relief valve and the water heater. The reliefvalve must be installed such that the discharge will be conducted to a suitable place for disposal whenrelief occurs. No reducing coupling or other restriction may be installed in the discharge line. Thedischarge line must be installed to allow complete drainage of both the valve and the line. If this unit isinstalled with a separate storage vessel, the separate vessel must have its own temperature andpressure relief valve. This valve must also comply with The Standard for Relief Valves and AutomaticGas Shutoff Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22. (in the U.S. only). A temperaturerelief valve is not required, but if one is used, do not install the valve with the probe directly in the flowof water. This may cause unwarranted discharge of the valve.

Piping and components connected to the water heater shall be suitable for use with potable water.Toxic chemicals, such as those used for boiler treatment, shall not be introduced into the potable water.A water heater used to supply potable water may not be connected to any heating system or compo-nents previously used with a nonpotable water heating appliance.When water is required in one part of the system at a higher temperature than in the rest of the sys-tem, means such as a mixing valve shall be installed to temper the water to reduce the scald hazard.

Pass water through the pipe to clean out metal powder, sand and dust before connecting it. Take appropriate heat insulation measures (e.g., wrapping with heat insulation materials, using elec-

tric heaters) according to the climate of the region to prevent the pipe from freezing. Use a union coupling or flexible pipe for connecting the pipes to reduce the force applied to the piping. Do not use piping with a diameter smaller than the coupling. When feed water pressure is too high, insert a depressurizing valve, or take water hammer preven-

tion measure. Avoid using joints as much as possible to keep the piping simple. Avoid piping in which an air holdup can occur.* Use approved piping materials.

Supply water piping Do not use PVC piping with city water. Mount a check valve and a shut off valve (near

the inlet). In order for the client to use the water heater

comfortably, 98.1 to 491 kPa (14 to 70 PSI) ofpressure is needed for water feeding.Be sure to check the water pressure. If thewater pressure is low, the water heater cannotperform to its full capability, and may becomea source of trouble for the client.

Drain piping Expansion water may drop from the pressure

prevention device and wet the floor. If neces-sary, provide drain piping or use a drain hoseto remove the water.

Hot water piping Do not use lead or PVC piping with city water. The longer the piping, the greater the heat loss.

Try to make the piping as short as possible. Use a mixing valve with a low water resistance.

Use a shower head with low pressure loss. If necessary, use a pump or other means to en-

sure that the supply water pressure to the inletof the heater does not fall below 200 kPa whenthe maximum amount of water is being de-manded. Also install a pressure meter on theinlet. If this is not done, local boiling will occurinside the water heater causing abnormalsounds and decreasing the durability of the heatexchanger.

Ask a qualified plumber in theregion for piping and observeplumbing codes
