AWARNING

HO'I-I'ERWATER CAN SCALD: Water heaters are intended to =reduce hot water. Water heated to a temperature which will satisfyclothes washing, dish washing,and other sanitizing needs can scaldand permanently injure you upon contact. Some peo- de are more likely to be permanently injured by hot water than others. These include the elderly, children,the infirm, or physical- ly/mentally handicapped.If anyone using hot water in your home fits into one of these groups or if there is a local code or state law requiring a certain temperature water at the hot water ta_ then mu must take special precautions. In addition to usingthe lowest

_osslble temperature setting that satisfiesyour hot water needs,

tmeans such as a mixing valve, should 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. Follow man- ufacturers instructions for installation of the valves. Before

changing the factory setting on the thermostat, read the "Temperature Regulation" section in this manual.

2.Look at the top cover of the water heater. The cold water inlet is marked cold. Put two or three turns of teflon tape

around the threaded end of the threaded-to-sweat coupling

and around both ends of the Y," threaded nipple. Usin_ flexi- ble connectors, connect the cold water pipe to the coldwater inlet of the water heater.

NOTE: This water heater is insulated to minimize heat loss from the tank. Further reduction in heat loss can be

accomplished by insulating the hot water lines from the

water h_qgter.

This water heater shall not be connected to any heating systems

or component(s) used with a non-potable water heating appli- ance.

If a water heater is installed in a closed water supply system; such as one having a back-flow preventer, check valve, water meter with a check valve, etc.., in the cold water supply; means shall be provided to control thermal expansion. Contact the local utility or local Sears Service Center on how to control this situation.

NOTE: To protect against untimely corrosion of hot and cold water fittings, it is strongly recommended that dielec- tric unions or couplings be installed on this water heater when connected to copper pipe.

The illustration shows the attachment of the water piping to the water heater. The water heater is equipped with _/_ inch water connections.

NOTE: If using copper tubing, solder tubing to an adapter before attaching the adapter to the cold water inlet connec- tion. Do not solder the cold water supply line directly to the cold water inlet or it will harm the dip tube.

1.Look at the top covet of the water heater. The hot water outlet is marked hot. Put two or three turns of teflon rape around the

threaded end of the threaded-to-sweat coupling and around both ends of the ¼ threaded nipple. Using flexible connectors, con-

nect the hot water pipe to the hot water outlet on the water heater.
