IMPORTANT!
With electrical power supplied to a on-demand water heater, it will not freeze
in enviornments as cold as -30 F, when protected from direct wind exposure.
In the event of a power failure at temperatures below freezing, the water
heater should be drained of all water to prevent freezing damage.
The unit may be drained manually or through the installation of the
Optional solenoid valves as shown.
The electrical connections for the two solenoid valves should be tied to
the 120 V power terminals provided on the PC Board of the water heater.
When the electrical power to the water heater fails, the cold water supply
drain down solenoid valve opens, allowing the water heater and
associated piping to drain. Ensure that you run the drain for the solenoids
per local codes.
