valve(not provided) at the inlet water connection
of the water heater to allow for easy shut-off

local codes may require a T&P valve for
installation. If one is required, install in
accordance with local codes and ensure it
operates correctly.

heater. Do not install in locations with pool or spa
water, or any locations where chemically treated
water can be introduced into the system.
