WARNING
When the system requires water at temperatures higher
than required for other uses, the hot water system may
require a means such as a mixing valve to be installed
to temper the water at certain points of use. Some peo-
ple are more likely to be permanently injured by hot
water than others; these include the elderly, children,
the infirm, or the physically/mentally handicapped.
Before immersing yourself or anyone else in hot water,
be sure to check the water temperature. WARNING:
HOTTER WATER INCREASES THE RISK OF SCALD
INJURY. (Also see “Temperature Regulation” section)
Mixing valves are available at plumbing supply or hard-
ware stores. Follow manufacturers instructions for
installation of these valves.
WARNING
This water heater shall not be connected to any heating
systems or component(s) previously used with a non-
potable water heating appliance.
If this water heater is also used for space heating applica-
tions, all piping and components connected to the water
heater shall be suitable for use with potable water.
WARNING
Toxic chemicals such as used for treatment of boilers or
non-potable water heating appliances shall never be
introduced into a potable water space heating system.
