WARNING
Specific instructions for the installation of a Low
Water Cut Off (LWCO) are the following:
Locate the wiring diagram within this manual. On the
wiring diagram, locate the connection points marked
LWCO or Field Interlocks. These are the electrical
connection points for the LWCO. Follow LWCO
Manufacturer's Wiring Instructions.
Mechanically, install the LWCO device in a tee
fitting in the supply piping above the highest point
of the water heater (unless the water heater has
an existing fitting for that purpose). Follow LWCO
Manufacturer's Instructions for minimum pipe sizing.
Note: This water heater is a water tube boiler that
requires water flow through the heat exchanger
for proper operation. It does not have an operating
water level and must be full at all times. In
accordance with ANSI/ASME CSD-1 Section CW-
210 and The National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA 54 Section 10.3.5 a water tube water heater
shall have a water flow proving device in lieu of a
