WARNING

This water heater is suitable for potable water heating only. DO NOT use this water heater for space heating or combination space heating/domestic water heating.

This water heater is not suitable for use in pool or spa applications.

The water heater must be installed outdoors. Failure to properly install this water heater outdoors may result in property damage, personal injury, or death. Refer to the installation of the water heater in this installation and instruction manual for details on the location and installation outdoors. DO NOT INSTALL INDOORS.

WARNING

Pressure relief valve discharge piping must be piped near the ground or drain to eliminate potential of severe burns. Insulate and use electrical heat tape around the discharge drain pipe in any area where freezing could occur. Do not install any shut-off valves, plugs or caps to the pressure relief valve or discharge piping.

CAUTION

If building cold water supply has a back-flow preventer, check valve or water meter with check valve, provisions for thermal expansion of water in the hot water system must be provided.

DANGER

Temperature setting should not exceed safe temperature at fixtures. See water temperature control warnings in the “Temperature Adjustment Section” of this Installation and Operating Instruction Manual. If higher preheat temperatures are necessary to obtain adequate booster output, add an ASSE approved mixing valve for hot water supplied to fixtures.

UNPACKING

INSPECT SHIPMENT carefully for any signs of damage.
