Chlorine Aggressive Water: The water quality can
significantly influence the life of this Product. You
should test for corrosive elements, acidity, total solids and other relevant
contaminants, including chlorine and treat your water appropriately to
insure satisfactory performance and prevent premature failure.
Note: Inspect for shipping damage and notify freight carrier or store where
purchased immediately if damage is present. To avoid risk of personal
injury and property damage, if the product appears to be malfunctioning or
shows signs of corrosion, call a qualified professional immediately. Current
copies of the Product Manual can be obtained at the place of purchase.
Use proper safety equipment when installing.
EXPLOSION HAZARD. The pressure of the heat
transfer medium must be limited to a maximum of 30
psig by an approved safety or relief valve on your boiler. The water heater
pressure must be limited to 150 psig maximum by the installation of a
temperature and pressure relief valve (included). The relief tube must be
plumbed to a suitable drain per code. No reducing coupling or other
restriction may be placed in this line.
This Product, like most Products under pressure,
may over time corrode, weaken and burst or explode,
causing serious or fatal injury, leaking or flooding and/or property damage.
To minimize risk, a licensed professional must install and periodically
inspect and service the Product. A drip pan connected to an adequate
drain must be installed if leaking or flooding could cause property damage.
Do not locate in an area where leaking could cause property damage to the
area adjacent to the appliance or to lower floors of the structure.
EXPLOSION OR RUPTURE HAZARD. A relief valve
must be installed to prevent pressure in excess of
local code requirement or maximum working pressure designated in the
Product Manual, whichever is less. Do not expose Product to freezing
temperatures or temperatures in excess of the maximum rated
operating temperature.
If not installed by the boiler manufacturer, install a
low water cut-off or pressure reducing valve on your
boiler so that leaking will not result in a dry boiler which if the boiler
continues to fire, will cause an explosion hazard.
