Boiler water
• Union on domestic hot water outlet should be piped at a higher elevation than domestic
water drain valve. This will make draining water heater easier.
• Install unions for easy removal of water heater. Use dielectric unions or couplings to protect
hot and cold water fittings from corrosion when connecting dissimilar materials such as
copper and galvanized iron pipe.
• If copper pipe is used for domestic water connections, first solder pipe to a threaded adapter,
and then screw adapter into cold water inlet on top of water heater. Inlet contains an
internal plastic dip tube rated at 230°F, which can be damaged by heat from soldering.
• When the supply pressure is higher than 70 psig, install a pressure reducing valve on cold
water supply line to prevent water loss through T&P relief valve.
• If water heater will replace tankless coil in boiler,` disconnect piping to coil or remove coil
from boiler and replace with a cover plate. Allow water to drain from coil. Do not plug
tankless coil.
Plugging tankless coil inlet and outlet will result in severe personal injury,
death or substantial property damage.
• Boiler water (including additives) must be practically non-toxic, having toxicity rating or
class of 1, as listed in Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Products.
• If antifreeze is used in boiler system, local codes may require a backflow preventer on
cold water supply line. Use antifreeze specifically intended for hydronic heating systems.
Inhibited propylene glycol is recommended.
Do not use automotive, ethylene glycol or petroleum-based antifreeze. Do
not use any undiluted antifreeze. This can cause severe personal injury,
death or substantial property damage.

Adjusting water heater temperatureA5
Hot Water Can Scald!
• Water temperature over 125°F can cause severe
burns instantly, or death from scalds.
• Feel water before bathing or showering.
• Consumer Product Safety Commission and
some states recommend temperature settings
of 130°F or less. Setting thermostat higher than
130°F setting will increase risk of scald injury and
can cause severe personal injury or death.
• Water heated to a temperature suitable for
clothes washing, dish washing and other sanitizing needs will scald and cause permanent
injury.
• Children and elderly, infirm, or physically handicapped persons are more likely to be injured by
hot water. Never leave them unattended in or near
a bathtub, shower or sink. Never allow small children to use a hot water faucet or draw their own
bath. If anyone using hot water in the building
fits this description, or if state laws or local codes
require certain water temperatures at hot water
faucets, take special precautions:
• Install an automatic mixing valve at water
heater or at each hot water faucet, bath, and
shower outlet. Selection and installation
must comply with valve manufacturer’s
recommendations and instructions.
• Use the lowest practical temperature setting.
• Check water temperature after any
adjustment. You must follow “Setting the
Thermostat” on page 19.

General notes
• Household water usage patterns will affect water
temperature at any faucet or shower. Occasionally
check temperature at each point of use, then adjust
thermostat accordingly. Always recheck temperature after adjusting thermostat.
• When hot water is used in repeated small quantities,
a “stacking” effect can develop in hot water tank.
The upper layer of water in tank can be much hotter
than lower layers.
• Lowering the thermostat setting or installing
automatic mixing valves as indicated in these instructions will reduce water temperature levels.
Consult your installer or service technician.
Studies have indicated that dangerous bacteria, including legionella pneumophila, can form in the potable
water distribution system if certain minimum water temperatures are not maintained. Contact your local
health department for more information.
