terpretation VIII-86-136. Check with local codes for ap-
plicability.
The PRESTIGE Excellence water heater will ab-
sorb less than 200,000 BTU/hr when domestic
water outlet temperature is 194ºF and boiler
water supply temperature is 240ºF. Listed out-
puts are based on ASME Section VIII Interpreta-
tion VIII-1-86-136.
Where recommendations in this manual differ from lo-
cal or national codes, the local or national codes take

• Boiler water (including additives) is practically
non-toxic, having toxicity rating or class of 1, as
listed in Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Prod-
ucts, and
• Boiler water pressure is limited to maximum 30
psig by approved relief valve.
Single wall heat exchangers are permitted under the
Uniform Plumbing Code - Paragraph L3.2. and L3.3 if
they satisfy all of the following requirements.
• The heat transfer medium is potable water or
contains only substances which are recognized
as safe by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
• The pressure of the heat transfer medium is
maintained less than the normal minimum op-
erating pressure of the potable water system
• The equipment is permanently labeled to indi-
cate that only additives recognized as safe by
the FDA shall be used in the heat transfer me-
dium.

210ºF.
• Maximum working pressure for inner (domestic
water) tank is 150 psig.
• Maximum working pressure for outer (boiler
water) tank is 30 psig.
• Water quality limitations (based on E.P.A Nation-
