MIXING VALVE USAGE
This appliance has been design certified as complying with
ANSI Z21.10.3 latest edition, for water heaters and is considered
suitable for:
Water (Potable) Heating: All models are considered suitable
for water (potable) heating only.
HOTTER WATER CAN SCALD:
Water heaters are intended to produce hot water. Water heated
to a temperature which will satisfy space heating, clothes
washing, dish washing, and other sanitizing needs can scald
and permanently injure you upon contact. Some people are
more likely to be permanently injured by hot water than others.
These include the elderly, children, the infirm, or physically/
mentally handicapped. If anyone using hot water in your home
fits into one of these groups or if there is a local code requiring
a certain temperature water at the hot water tap, then you must
take special precautions. In addition to using the lowest
possible temperature setting that satisfies your hot water needs,
a means such as a *mixing valve, shall be used at the hot water
taps used by these people or at the water heater. Mixing valves
are available at plumbing supply or hardware stores. Consult a
Qualified Installer or Service Agency. Follow mixing valve
manufacturer’s instructions for installation of the valves. Before
changing the factory setting on the thermostat, read the
“Temperature Regulation” section in this manual, see Figures
31 and 32 on page 22.
