Water Heater Bracing Detail
This detail is only to provide information on how to strap the water heater for security in case of an earthquake. This detail is not an installation instruction for the water heater itself. Please be aware that there is a minimum clearance that must be maintained between the bottom of the water heater and the floor which is not indicated on this diagram. Please consult a licensed plumber, your local building and safety department and/or the manufacturer of your water heater for the proper clearances and installation instructions.
