This appliance has been design certified as complying with American National Standards for water heaters and is considered suitable for:.

Water (Potable) Heating: All models are "considered suitable for water (potable) heating."

Water (Potable) Heating and Space Heating: Certain models are "considered suitable for water (potable) heating and space heating." Refer to the model and rating plate of the water heater.

AWARNING

HOTTER WATER CAN SCALD: Water heaters are intended to produce hot water. Water heated to a tem- perature which will satisfy clothes washing, dish washing, and other sanitizing needs can scald and permanently injure you upon contact. Some people are more likely to be permanently injured by hot water than others. These include the elderly, children, the infirm, or physically/men- tally handicapped. If anyone using hot water in your home fits into one of these groups or if there is a local code or state law requiring a certain temperature water at the hot water tap, then you must take special precautions. In addi- tion to using the lowest possible temperature setting that satisfies your hot water needs, a means such as a mixing valve, should be used at the hot water taps used by these people or at the water heater. Mixing valves are available

at plumbing supply or hardware stores. Follow manufac- turers instructions for installation of the valves. Before

changing the factory setting on the thermostat, read the "Temperature Regulation" section in this manual.

_WARNING

This water heater shall not be connected to any

heating systems or component(s) previously used with a non-potable water heating appliance.

If this water heater is also used for space heating

applications, all piping and components connected to

the water heater shall be suitable for use with

potable water,

_,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-electric unions or couplings be installed on this water heater when con- nected to copper pipe.
