*STANDBY HEAT LOSS - Measure of how well the tank is insulated. Use a Kilowatt Hour meter and measure the power consumed in a 24 Hr. period for a full tank at normal operating temperature and no water being added.

** FIRST HOUR RATING - Measure how much hot water can be delivered over a one hour period, with a 140°F tank water temperature and 60°F incoming water temperature.

***USABLE HOT WATER - Measure of how the cold incoming water mixes with the stored hot water. Start with a hot tank. Draw water at 1 /2 GPM until water temperature drops 25%. Measure amount of water drawn. Repeat for 1 GPM and 2 GPM.

1. THE JUNCTION BOX, EXTERNAL WIRING, THERMOSTATS OR HEATING ELEMENTS ON ELECTRIC WATER HEATERS MUST NOT BE COVERED.

2.THE TEMPERATURE-PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE MUST NOT BE COVERED.

3OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, INSTALLATION OR SAFETY RELATED LABELS MUST NOT BE COVERED.

4THE AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARDS & FEDERAL LAWS PERTAINING TO WATER HEATERS REQUIRE THAT INSTRUCTIONS & SAFETY LABELS REMAIN ON THE WATER HEATER PROPER. DO NOT REMOVE INSTRUCTIONS OR SAFETY LABELS FROM THE HEATER.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a three pin receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Have a licensed electrician check for ground continuity of the electrical supply system to insure proper grounding of the water heater.

TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

To reduce the risk of excessive pressures and temperatures in this water heater install temperature and pressure protective equipment required by local codes but not less than a combination temperature and pressure relief valve certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory that maintains periodic inspection of production of listed equipment or materials, as meeting the requirements for Relief Valves and Automatic Gas Shutoff Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22. This valve must be marked with a maximum set pressure not to exceed the marked maximum working pressure of the water heater. Install the valve into an opening provided and marked for this purpose in the water heater, and orient it or provide tubing so that any discharge from the valve will exit only within 6 inches above or at any distance below the structural floor and cannot contact any live electrical part. The discharge opening must not be blocked or reduced in size under any circumstances.

Check the metal tag on the relief valve and compare it to the
