&WARNING

At the time of manufacture this water heater was provided i with a combinationtemperature-pressuresreliefvalvecertlf_ed by a nationally recognized testing laboratory that maintains periodic inspectionof production of listedequipment or mate- rials, as meeting the requirements for Relief Valves and

Automatic Gas ShutoffDevicesfor Hot Water SupplySystems, and the latest edition of ANSI Z21.22 and the code require. ments of ASME, If replaced, the valve must meet the require- ments of localcodes,but not lessthan a combinationtempera-

ture and pressurerelief valve certified as meeting the require- ments for ReliefValvesandAutomatic Gas Shutoff Devicesfor

Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI 7.21.22bya nationally recog- nized testinglaboratory that maintains periodic inspectionof productionof listedequipmentor materials.

The valve must be marked with a maximum set pressurenot to exceed the marked hydrostatic working pressure of the water heater (150 Ibsdsq.in.) and a dischargecapacity not less !than the water heeter input rate as shownon the model rating

plate. (Electric heaters - watts divided by 1000 x 3415 equal BTU/Hr. rate.)

Yourlocaljurisdictionalauthority,while mandatingthe useof a temperature-pressurereliefvalve complyingwith ANSI Z21.22 and ASME, may require a valve model different from the one furnishedwith the water heater.

Compliancewith suchlocal requirements must be satisfiedby the installeror enduser of the water heater with a locallypre- scribedtemperature-pressurerelief valve instaJledin the desig- nated opening in the water heater in place of the factory fur- nishedvalve.

For safeoperationof the water heater,the relief valve must not be removed from it'sdesignatedopeningor plugged.

The temperature-pressurerelief valve must be installeddirectly into the fittingof the water heater designatedfor the relief valve. Position the valve downwardand providetubingsothat any dis-

chargewill exit only within 6 inchesabove, or at any distance belowthe structural floor. Be certain that no contact is made

with any liveelectricalpart. The disthargeopeningmust not be blockedor reduced in size under any circumstancesExcessive. length,over 30 fe_, or use of more than four elbewscan cause

restriction and reduce the dischargecapacityof the valve.

No valveor other obstructionisto be placedbetweenthe relief valveand the tank. Do not connecttubing directlyto discharge drainunlessa 6" air gapisprovided.Topreventbodilyinjury,haz- ard to life, or property damage,the relief valvemust be allowed to dischargewater in quantitiesshouldcircumstancesdemand.If the discharge pipe is not connectedto a drain or other suitable means,the water flow maycausepropertydamage.

The DischargePipe:

•Must not be smaller in size than the outlet pipe size of the valve,or haveanyreducing couplingsor other restrictions. Must not be pluggedor blocked.

Must be of material listedfor hot water distribution.

Must be installedso as to allow complete drainageof both the temperature-pressure relief valve, and the discharge pipe.

Must terminate at an adequatedrain.

Mustnot have any valvebetween the relief vaJveand tank_

•, WARNING

The temperature-pressure relief valve must be manually operated at least once a year. Caution should be taken to ensure that (I) no one is in front of or around the outlet of the temperature-pressure relief valve dischargeline, and (2) the water manually discharged will not cause any bodily injury or property damage because the water may be

extremely hot.

If after manua/Iy operating the valve, it fails to completely reset and continuesto release water, immediately closethe cold water inlet to the water heater, follow the draining

instructions, and replace the temperature-pressure relief valve with a new one.
