WARNING ABOUT HOT WATER
Hot water can cause scalding. Those most
at risk are children and disabled, elderly
and infirm persons.
Rinnai have water heater models which
limit the delivery temperature to 50°C which
significantly reduces the scald hazard.
Temperature limiting devices may also be
able to be fitted. Contact Rinnai for further
information.
ALWAYS test the water temperature before
use, such as when filling a bath or basin or
entering a shower, to ensure it is suitable
for the application and will not cause scald
injury.
ALWAYS supervise children whenever
they are in the bathroom or near other
sources of hot water. Ensure any hot water
taps are closed firmly after use.
