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,
cleaning
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 tocal 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.
Valves for reducing
point of use temperature
by mixing
cold and
hot water are also available.
Follow manufacturer's
instructions
for installation of the valves. Before
changing
the factory setting on the thermostat,
read the "Temperature
Regulation"
section in this manual.
