intendedto produce hot water. Water heated to a tem-
perature whmchwill satisfy clothes washing, dish wash-
ing, and other sanitizing nei_dscan scaldand perma-

physically/mentally handicapped, if anyone uslng 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 low-
est possibletemperature setting that satisfiesyour hot
water needs,sometype of tempering device, such as a
mixing valve, shouldhe usedat the hot water tapsused
by these people or at the water heater. Mixing valves
are available at plumbing supply or hardware stores.
Follow manufacturers instructions for installation of
the valves. Before changing the factory setting on the
thermostat, read the "Temperature Regulation" section
in this manual.
-WARNING
This water heater shall not be connected to any heat-
ing systemsor component(s) now or previously used
wlth a non-potable water heating appliance.
WARNING o
Toxic chemicals such as used for treatment of boilers
or non-potable water heating appliances shallnever be
introduced into a potable water heating system.
If a water heater is installed in a Closed water supply sys-
tem; such as one having a back-flow preventer, check
valve, water meter with a check valve, etc..., in the cold
water supply; means shall be provided to control thermal
expansion. Contact the local utility or local SearsService
Center on how to control this situation.
NOTE: To protect a_ainst untimely corrosion of hot and
cold water fittings, zt is strongly recommended that di-
electric unions or couplings 5e installed on this water
heater when connected to copper pipe,

the cold water pipe to the cold water inlet of the water
heater.
NOTE: Thiswater heater isinsulated to minimize heat
loss from the tank. Further reduction in heat losscan
be accomplished by insulating the hot water lines
from the water heater.
