Always read and follow all warnings on water heater safety
decals and in the manual. If the Installation and Operation manual
is missing, go to our website at: www.hubbellheaters.com or
contact Hubbell (203-378-2659) for a replacement.
Use this water heater at your own risk. The outlet
temperature of the Hubbell water heater is factory
preset to 120°F (49°C). The temperature can only be
changed by using the control panel on the front of the
water heater.
Do not store or use gasoline or other
f ammable vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Flammable vapors can ignite and
cause serious damage or injury.
This water heater is factory preset for NATURAL GAS.
For propane conversion, refer to the manual.
Connecting the water heater to any other gas supply can result
in property damage, serious injury, and even death.
Suitable for water (potable) heating and
space heating. The water heater MUST NOT be
connected to any heating system or components previously
used with a nonpotable water heating appliance.
Do not use toxic chemicals, such as used for boiler
treatment, in potable water space heating systems.
This appliance must be installed in accordance with
local codes or, in the absence of local codes, the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the
CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.
Pressure Relief Valve
A pressure relief valve complying with the Standard for
Relief Valves for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22
or CAN1-4.4 Temperature, Pressure, Temperature and Pressure
Relief Valves and Vacuum Relief Valves must be installed in a
proper outlet port of water heater at the time of installation
according to local codes.
No valve is to be placed between the relief valve and the
water heater.
The discharge from the temperature/pressure relief valve
should be directed to the ground or into a drain system
which will prevent a burn hazard or property damage. The
piping must not have a reducing coupling or other restriction
in the discharge line. The discharge line must be installed to
allow complete drainage of both the valve and line.
If the system requires water for space heating at
temperatures higher than required for other uses, a
mixing valve must be installed to temper the water for those
other uses in order to reduce scald hazard potential.
The pressure relief valve must not be removed or
plugged.
