WATER HEATER APPLICATION
This water heater is designed for use in a single family domestic dwelling for the
purpose of heating potable water. Its use in an application other than this may
shorten its life.
If this water heater is to be used where an uninterrupted hot water supply is
necessary for the application or business, then there should be back-up
redundancy within the hot water system design. This should ensure the continuity
of hot water supply in the event that this water heater was to become inoperable
for any reason. We recommend you provide advice to the system owner about
their needs and building back-up redundancy into the hot water supply system.
WATER HEATER LOCATION
The water heater is suitable for either indoor or outdoor installation. Whether
located outdoor or indoor, the water heater should be installed close to the most
frequently used outlet and its position chosen with safety and service in mind.
Clearance must be allowed for servicing of the water heater. The water heater
must be accessible without the use of a ladder or scaffold.
Make sure the temperature pressure relief valve lever is accessible and the front
cover, thermostat and heating unit can be removed for service.
