Some people are more likely to be permanently injured
by hot water than others. These include the elderly,
children, the in
fi
rm and the physically/mentally disabled.
Table 1 (published by U.S. Government Memorandum,
1978) shows the approximate time-to-burn relationship
for normal adult skin. If anyone using hot water provided
by the water heater being installed
fi
ts into one of these
groups or if there is a local code or state law requiring a
certain water temperature at the point of use, then special
precautions must be taken.

Table 1
In addition to using lowest possible temperature setting
that satis
fi
es demand of application, a mixing valve should
be installed at water heater (see Figure 7 & Figure 8) or at
hot-water taps to further reduce system water temperature.
Mixing valves are available at plumbing supply stores.
Consult a Quali
fi
ed Installer or Service Agency. Follow
mixing valve manufacturer’s instructions for installation
of the valves. Before changing the factory setting on the
thermostat, read the “Operating The Temperature Control
System” section in this manual.
WATER HEATER OPERATION
Figure 9 shows the water heater’s sequence of operation
when a call for heat is initiated. The ignition control module
will attempt to light the burner three times. If the ignition
control does not detect ignition it will enter lockout mode
and
fl
ash the corresponding error code.
