Sioux Chief 523-1624 Universal Bracketing System

Product Description

The SIOUX CHIEF 523-1624 is a universal bracketing system designed to secure and support water heaters in residential and light commercial installations. Built to accommodate units weighing 66 to 90 pounds, this system provides the structural bracing needed to keep water heaters properly anchored and stable. It is installed by licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors during new construction or replacement service. The domestic designation indicates the unit is manufactured for use in standard North American plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or mechanical contractor in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and manufacturer guidelines.
