TEMPERATURE CONTROLS

The front panel temperature control allows the end user to set the hot water supply temperature and will display certain diagnostic codes of the water heater if there is a malfunction. All models have the option of up to four controllers that can be used to conveniently control water temperatures for bath and shower fixtures.

The main control is integrally mounted to project through the front panel of the water heater. The adjustment range is 98-120°F. Additional remote controls can be purchased, p/n 239-47806-00, and these have the same available temperature range as the main control. If an optional commercial control, p/n 239-47805-00, is purchased, the allowable temperature can be up to 185ºF on some models (TG-199Iand TG-237Ionly). The other models can get an allowable temperature up to 160ºF. If a commercial control is used, this reduces the warranty period of the water heater. Also, if a commercial control is used with a water heater, all of the remaining controls connected to the water heater can achieve the maximum temperature that the commercial control allows. See Table for more details.

* Re-setting the Maximum Temperature

For all models except TG-237I-N(X),TG-237I-N(X)A: These units have a default maximum temperature of 120º F (49º

C)and an option to increase the maximum temperature to 140 ºF (60 ºC). Temperature settings from 125-140 ºF

(52-60 ºC) are available by setting dip switch 6 to ON in the SW1 bank of 8 dip switches.

**239-47805-00, Commercial Control

These settings require the 239-47805-00 controller. When the 239-47805-00 controller is connected, these higher temperatures are available on all controller models in the system. Use of a 239-47805-00 controller in a residential dwelling will reduce the warranty coverage to that of a commercial warranty application.

DANGER

Hotter water increases the risk of scald injury. Scalding may occur within 5 seconds at a temperature setting of 140°F (60°C). To protect against hot water injury, install a mixing valve in the water system. This valve will reduce point of discharge temperature by mixing cold and hot water in branch water lines. A licensed plumbing professional or local plumbing authority should be consulted.

CAUTION

This water heater, when set at a lower temperature setting is not capable of producing hot water of sufficient temperature for sanitizing purposes. Always check water temperature by hand before entering the shower or bath. The temperature may have been changed. Test the temperature of the water with your hand or elbow before placing a child in the bath or shower. Do not leave a child or an infirm person in the bath unsupervised.
