INSTALLATION DIAGRAMS

GENERAL

The type, size and location of the relief valves must be in accordance with local codes. The locations of the relief valves shown in the installation diagrams are typical. The heater has a factory installed high temperature limit switch and temperature and pressure relief valve.

Cold water lines to heater should be installed as shown in order to minimize gravity circulation of hot water to building cold water lines.

A listed temperature and pressure relief valve of adequate

capacity is installed on the heater. The locations shown in the installation diagrams on the following pages are typical.

The discharge opening of the temperature and pressure relief valve, located in front of the heater must be piped to an open drain and should not be subject to freezing temperatures.

Install in accordance with all local codes.

DANGER

TEMPERATURE SETTING SHOULD NOT EXCEED SAFE USE TEMPERATURE AT FIXTURES. SEE WATER TEMPERATURE CONTROL WARNING ON PAGE 20. IF HIGHER PREHEAT TEMPERATURES ARE NECESSARY TO OBTAIN ADEQUATE BOOSTER OUTPUT, ADD AN ANTI-SCALD VALVE FOR HOT WATER SUPPLIED TO FIXTURES.
