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
disabled. 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 from your local
plumbing
contractor.
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.
