GENERAL SAFETY To meet commercial hot water use needs, the high limit safety control on this water heater will shut off the main gas valve before the outlet temperature reaches 210°F. However, water temperatures over 125°F can cause instant severe burns or death from scalds. When supplying general purpose hot water, the rec- ommended initial setting for the temperature control is 125°F.
INSTALLATION CAUTION: This heater should be located in an area where water leakage will not result in damage to the area adjacent to the appliances or to the Installation Codes structure. When such locations cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a suitable catch pan, adequately drained, be installed under the Installations must follow these codes: appliance.
The combustion air intake elbow MUST be used for outdoor installations. It is shipped loose to be installed on the air filter intake at the rear of the heater at the job site. The elbow MUST be oriented with the opening facing downward (shipped loose).

RESET RATIO The control uses the four following settings to determine the reset ratio: Boiler Start (Boil START) The Boil START temperature is the theoretical boiler supply water temperature that the heating system requires when the outdoor air temperature equals the OUT START temperature setting. The Boil START is typically set to the desired building temperature. Outdoor Start (OUT START) The OUT START temperature is the outdoor air temperature at which the control provides the Boil START water temperature to the system.
START-UP BEFORE OPERATING, smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell near the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor. NOTE: The following steps must be performed by a factory-trained technician.
Preparation 3. If the gas pressure is greater than 14.0 in. WC, turn off the main gas shut-off valve, upstream of the heater. WARNING: Do not turn on gas at this time.
