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 applica-

tions, 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.

WARNING

When the system requires water at temperatures higher

than required for other uses, the hot water system may

require a means such as a mixing valve to be installed to

temper the water at certain points of use. Some people

are more likely to be permanently injured by hot water

than others; these include the elderly, children, the

infirm, or the physically/mentally handicapped. Before

immersing yourself or anyone else in hot water, be sure

to check the water temperature. WARNING: HOTTER

WATER INCREASES THE RISK OF SCALD INJURY. (Also

see “Temperature Regulation” section) Mixing valves

are available at plumbing supply or hardware stores.

Follow manufacturers instructions for installation of

these valves.
