water heater may be installed by itself, or with a separate storage
tank, on both single and two-temperature systems. When used with
a separate storage tank, the circulation may be either by gravity or by
means of a circulating pump. When a circulating pump is used it is

CLOSED WATER SYSTEMS
Water supply systems may, because of code requirements or such
conditions as high line pressure, among others, have installed devices
