This appliance has been design certified as complying with American
National Standard/CSA Standard for water heaters and is considered
suitable for:
water (potable) heating: All models are considered suitable for
water (potable) heating.
HOTTER WATER CAN SCALD:
Water heaters are intended to produce hot water. Water heated to
a temperature which will satisfy space heating, 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/mentally 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 addition 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. Consult a Qualified Installer or Service Agency.
Follow mixing valve manufacturer’s instructions for installation of
the valves. Before changing the factory setting on the thermostat,
read the “Temperature Regulation” section in this manual, see
Figures 29 and 30.
