Questions about this product

Where should I mount the outdoor unit and what clearances are required?

Mount it vertically on an exterior wall with the water, gas, and power connections pointing down. Keep good airflow and choose a sheltered spot out of direct rain or snow. Maintain clearances of 6 inches on the sides, 12 inches on top, and 0 inches at the back.

Which propane regulator and gas pressure do I need?

Use an LP system regulator that delivers about 11 inches water column to the appliance. The unit requires 9 to 13 inches WC at the inlet and is rated up to 140,000 BTU per hour, so size the regulator and gas line for that load. Per the manual, install a gas pressure regulator in the supply line and do not use an “individual type” regulator. Isolate the heater during pressure testing.

Do I need a vent kit for the outdoor model?

No. The 6.8GB outdoor model does not require venting. Only the indoor 6.8GB-I model uses Category III stainless venting.

What plumbing and electrical are required?

Water and gas connections are 3/4 inch NPT. Provide 120 V, 60 Hz power and up to about 12 A during operation for ignition and controls. Follow local code for the T&P relief valve installation and insulate hot and cold lines.

How do I protect it from freezing or when the cottage is empty?

If the site will freeze and the unit will be unattended, drain and unplug the heater to prevent damage. Route and terminate lines so they can drain, and keep exterior vent openings clear. Insulate water lines. These steps are straight from Eccotemp’s winterizing guidance and the install manual.
