Abstract

A water heater attachment method is a method for attaching a water heater body to a wall surface by using an attachment member provided at a rear end of an upper surface of the water heater body. The method includes a first step of inserting a tip of a rod member into a through hole formed in the attachment member, the rod member projecting forward from the wall surface, a second step of sliding the attachment member toward the wall surface along the rod member to shift the water heater body to an attachment position of the wall surface, and a third step of fastening the attachment member to the wall surface by a screw in a state where the attachment member is held by the rod member.
