WARNING
This water heater is equipped with a heat exchanger. Extended engine coolant
circulation through the heater may result in excessively hot water.
This water heater tank and heat exchanger is made of aluminum. Some engine
manufacturers recommend that cooling system be flushed periodically. Caustic
chemicals are commonly used.
DO NOT
flush caustic chemicals (such as Nalcool)
through your system with the heat exchanger hooked up or damage
WILL
occur to
heater.
If flushing is required by your engine manufacturer, you must isolate heater from
this process. After system flushing is complete and neutralized, you can then re-plumb
heater. Make sure recommended automotive type premixed ethylene glycol coolants
such as Prestone, Xerex, or Peak are used for replacement. Damage that occurs to
heater due to chemical reaction by caustic chemicals
IS NOT
under warranty.
