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

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.

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