Hot Water Can Scald!
• Water heated to temperature for clothes washing, dish washing and
other sanitizing needs can scald and cause permanent injury.
• Children, elderly, and infirm or physically handicapped persons are
more likely to be permanently injured by hot water. Never leave them
unattended in bathtub or shower. Never allow small children to use
a hot water tap or draw their own bath.
• If anyone using hot water in the building fits the above description,
or if state laws or local codes require certain water temperatures
at hot water taps, you must take special precautions:
• Use lowest possible temperature setting.
• Install some type of tempering device, such as an automatic
mixing valve, at hot water tap or water heater. Automatic
mixing valve must be selected and installed according to valve
manufacturer’s recommendations and instructions.
• Water passing out of drain valves may be extremely hot. To avoid
injury:
• Make sure all connections are tight.
• Direct water flow away from any person.
