Part 4 - Piping

Failure to follow the instructions in this section WILL VOID the 

warranty and may result in property damage, severe personal injury, 

or death.

Dielectric unions or galvanized steel fittings must not be used in a 

system with this appliance. Doing so WILL VOID the warranty. Use 

only copper, brass, or stainless steel fittings. Teflon thread sealant 

must be used on all connections.

Plumbing of this appliance should only be done by a qualified, 

licensed plumber in accordance with all local plumbing codes. The 

appliance may be connected to an indirect water heater to supply 

domestic hot water. HTP offers indirect water heaters in a wide range 

of gallon sizes in either stainless steel or glass lined construction.

A. General Plumbing Information

Use two wrenches when tightening water piping at appliance. Use 

one wrench to prevent the appliance return or supply line from 

turning. Failure to prevent piping connections from turning could 

cause damage to appliance components.

The building piping system must meet or exceed the piping 

requirements in this manual.

The appliance control module uses temperature sensors to 

provide both high limit protection and modulating temperature 

control. The control module also provides low water protection by 

sensing the water level in the appliance. Some codes/jurisdictions 

may require additional external controls.

The National Standard Plumbing Code, the National Plumbing Code 

of Canada, and the Uniform Plumbing Code limit heat transfer fluid 

pressure to less than the minimum working pressure of the potable 

water system up to 30 PSI maximum. In addition, the heat transfer 

fluid must be water or another non-toxic fluid having a toxicity of 

Class 1, as listed in Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Products, 

5th Edition. Failure to follow this warning could result in property 

damage, severe personal injury, or death.

Do not apply a torch within 12” of the appliance. If sweat connections 

are used, sweat tubing to the adapter before fitting adapter to the 

water connections on the appliance. Damages due to improper 

installation practices ARE NOT covered by warranty.

The water connections must be installed in accordance with all local 

and national plumbing codes, or any applicable standard which 

prevails.

•  Pipe material must be suitable to meet local codes and industry 

standards.
