MOUNT WATER HEATER ON THE WALL

The EVERHOT® IGE series water heater must be installed outdoors. Refer to Table 1

clearances under overhangs, windows, doors, etc. Also avoid locations where there is heavy

water runoff from roofs. Determine the proper height and location for the water heater to be

installed. Consider the water and gas connections. Allow enough room for servicing the water

heater and maintain the clearances from combustible materials previously stated. The water

heater is supported on the wall by means of a top and bottom slotted angle bracket. For

convenience, the center hole of the bracket is slotted so that a center screw may be first installed

in the wall for hanging the water heater on the wall. Two more screws are then added on the

ends of the bracket to secure the water heater. Wall anchors should be used for the bracket

holes unless the bracket lines up with a stud. As an alternative, a suitable piece of plywood or

2x4 wooden support may be cut to span the wall studs and the brackets. Make sure the anchors

are rated to support the 50 pound (23 kg) weight of the water heater.
