avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not

avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.

NOTICE

Indicates that equipment or property damage can result if

instructions are not followed.

SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

Safety instructions (or equivalent) signs indicate

specific safety-related instructions or procedures.

Note: Contains additional information important to a

procedure.

2.2 Installation Warnings

WARNING

DO NOT use this water heater for any purpose other

than water heating.

Read, understand, and follow the Installation and Operation

manuals, including all warnings and precautions, before

operating this water heater. If you do not follow these

instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result, causing

property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

Follow all local codes and the most recent edition of the

National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54) in the USA

or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code in Canada

(CSA B149.1).

This water heater must be installed by a licensed plumber,

gas fitter, and/or professional service technician.

Installation by unqualified person(s) voids the warranty.

iQ751 - iQ1501 Safety

DANGER

A. This water heater does not have a pilot. It is equipped

with an ignition device which automatically lights the

burner. Do not try to light the burner manually.

B. BEFORE OPERATING, smell all around the water

heater area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor

because some gas is heavier than air and will settle

on the floor.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone in

your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s

phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire or

police department.

C. Use only your hand to turn the manual gas shut-off

valve. Never use tools. If manual gas shut-off valve will

not turn by hand, don’t try to repair it. Call a qualified

service technician. Force or attempted repair may

result in a fire or explosion.

WARNING

DO NOT use or store flammable liquids around the water

heater, including gasoline, oils, spray paints, etc.

DO NOT operate this water heater unless it is properly

vented to the outside (the exhaust vent piping must be

connected from the unit directly to the outside). Improper

venting can cause a build-up of carbon monoxide, which

can result in brain damage or death. Exhaust gases must

be completely expelled out of the building.

This water heater is factory preset for NATURAL GAS

but may be field converted for use with propane.

For propane conversion, refer to the Propane (LPG)

Conversion section of this manual. Connecting the

water heater to any other gas supply can result in

property damage, serious injury, or even death.

This water heater is suitable for use in potable water

heating applications. The cold and hot water fittings on

the top of the water heater MUST NOT be connected to

any heating system.

The water heater temperature is factory set to 120°F

(49°C). Hot water temperatures above 125°F can cause

severe burns instantly or death from scalds. If the

proposed water heater outlet temperature is to be set

above 125°F, installation of a thermostatically controlled

(or temperature limiting) mixing valve is recommended

for all hot water going to faucets to avoid the risk

of scalding. Examples include commercial applications

where 140°F (60°C) is often needed or if the space

heating temperature required is higher than the domestic

hot water. Always check the temperature of the hot

water before bathing, showering, washing, etc.

Protect against snow and debris accumulation around

the vent terminations. Regularly inspect the exhaust

vent pipe and the air intake pipe to ensure they remain

clear from obstructions at all times.

Designed for operations at outlet water temperature(s) not

in excess of 190F (88C).

iQ751 - iQ1501 Safety

CAUTION

Make sure you know the location of the gas shut-off

valve and how to operate it. Immediately close the

gas shut-off valve if the water heater is subjected to

fire, overheating, flood, physical damage, or any other

damaging condition that might affect the operation of

the unit. Have the water heater checked by a qualified

technician before resuming operation.

If the water quality is known to have high acidity and/

or high hardness, water treatment is recommended.

Consult the local water authority.

SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT use this appliance if any part has been under

water.

DO NOT reverse the cold water and gas connections as

this will damage the gas valve.

DO NOT overtighten fittings as damage may occur,

causing internal leakage.

The appliance should be located in an area where leakage

within the unit or at its connections will not result in

damage to the surrounding area. The manufacturer

will not be responsible for any damage resulting from

leaking if adequate drainage is not provided.

2. When multiple units are connected, each regulator must

have a separate vent line.

3. Vent lines must not be connected together or connected

with any other appliance requiring external venting.

4. When selecting the size, the pipe diameter must be

increased by one size for every 20 feet of pipe.

a. Each 90° elbow is equivalent to approximately:

4.5 feet for nominal pipe sizes of up to 1-1/2”

10.5 feet for nominal pipe sizes of up to 4”.

b. Each 45° elbow is equivalent to approximately:

2 feet for nominal pipe sizes of up to 1-1/2”

5 feet for nominal pipe sizes of up to 4”.

1. If the gas inlet pressure is higher than recommended,

install a gas pressure regulator to lower gas pressure to an

acceptable level.

2. The gas pressure regulator must have the same or higher

minimum to maximum modulation range as the iQ model it

is regulating. For example, an iQ1001 gas pressure

regulator should have a modulation range of 30,000 BTU/

h to 1,001,000 BTU/h.

3. When multiple units are connected use a dedicated gas

pressure regulator for each unit.

meter to the water heater or other appliances requiring

gas. The diameter of the pipe must be in relation to

the length.

b. The total length of gas piping, as well as fitting pressure

drop, must be considered when sizing the gas piping.

Total equivalent length should be calculated from the

meter or source location to the last heater connected.

c. Gas pipe size should be selected on the total

equivalent length. The gas volume for cfh flow will be

the input divided by the calorific value of the fuel to be

supplied.

d. Use the Gas Pipe Sizing tables in this manual or refer

to the gas line manufacturers sizing information to

determine the correct diameter for the supply pipe.

e. The diameter of the gas lines, shown in the illustration,
