WATER TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
Table 8 details the approximate relationship of water
temperature and time with regard to scald injury and may be
used as a guide in determining the safest water temperature for
your applications.
WARNING
SCALDING
This water heater can deliver scalding temperature water at any
faucet in the system. Be careful whenever using hot water to avoid
scalding injury. By setting the thermostat on this water heater to
obtain an increased water temperature, you may create the
potential for scald injury. To protect against injury, you should
install an ASSE approved mixing valve (a device to limit the
temperature of water to protect against scald injury via mixing
hot and cold water supply) in the water system. This valve will
reduce point of discharge temperature in branch supply lines.
Such valves are available from the manufacturer of this water
heater or a local plumbing supplier. Please consult with a
plumbing professional.
