4B.5 Freeze Protection – Water Heater
Although Copper Brute II water heaters are
Power outage, interruption of gas supply, failure
of system components, activation of safety devices, etc., may prevent a heater from firing. Any time a heater is subjected to freezing conditions, and the heater is not able to fire, and/or the water is not able to circulate, there is a risk of freezing in the heater or in the pipes in the system. When water freezes, it expands. This can result in bursting of pipes in the system, or damage to the heater, which could result in leaking or flooding conditions.
