WARNING!!
The water connection must be carried out by
an authorized plumber in accordance with
existing local codes.
Clogged up water filters and dirt in the sole
-
noid valves are not covered by the warranty.
To facilitate cleaning and servicing, the oven should be
connected with an approved flexible 3/4” hose. Perma
-
nent installations should be fitted with a stop-tap and a
non-return valve.
Before connecting the oven to water, flush the tubes
thoroughly. Connect the oven.
DRAIN CONNECTION
Blodgett ovens are equipped with a drain system that re
-
moves surplus water from the oven chamber. This may
be condensed water from the products, or it may occur
when the oven chamber is cooled down with cold water,
or when the oven chamber is cleaned.
NOTE: The drain piping must consist of temperature
resistant material, greater than 160°F, and be
of adequate diameter not to cause flow restric
-
tion. Improper materials may deform and cause
restrictions, thus affecting performance.
