WARNING:
!
THIS WATER HEATER MUST BE INSTALLED STRICT-
LY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS
ENCLOSED AND LOCAL ELECTRIC AND BUILDING
CODES. IT IS ALSO POSSIBLE THAT CONNECTIONS
TO THE WATER HEATER ITSELF MAY DEVELOP
LEAKS. IT IS THEREFORE IMPERATIVE THAT THE
WATER HEATER BE INSTALLED SO THAT ANY
WATER IS DIRECTED TO AN ADEQUATE DRAIN IN
SUCH A WAY THAT WATER DAMAGE TO THE BUILD-
ING, FURNITURE, CARPETING OR OTHER PROPERTY
CANNOT OCCUR. NEITHER THE MANUFACTURER
NOR THE DISTRIBUTOR CAN BE HELD RESPONSI-
BLE FOR DAMAGE CAUSED BY WATER FROM THE
WATER HEATER, TEMPERATURE PRESSURE RELIEF
VALVE, OR RELATED FITTINGS WHERE ADEQUATE
PROVISION TO DRAIN SUCH WATER HAS NOT BEEN
PROVIDED.
CAUTION:
!
HYDROGEN GAS CAN BE PRODUCED IN A HOT
WATER SYSTEM SERVED BY THIS HEATER THAT
HAS NOT BEEN USED FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME
(GENERALLY 2 WEEKS OR MORE). HYDROGEN GAS
IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY UNDER THESE
CONDITIONS, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE HOT
WATER FAUCET BE OPENED FOR SEVERAL MIN-
UTES AT THE KITCHEN SINK BEFORE USING ANY
ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE CONNECTED TO THE HOT
WATER SYSTEM.
WHEN HYDROGEN IS PRESENT, THERE WILL PROB-
ABLY BE AN UNUSUAL SOUND SUCH AS AIR ESCAP-
ING THROUGH THE PIPE AS THE WATER BEGINS TO
FLOW. THERE SHOULD BE NO SMOKING OR OPEN
FLAME NEAR THE FAUCET AT THE TIME IT IS OPEN.
MONTHLY MANUAL VENTING OF THE T&P VALVE
WILL REDUCE THIS EFFECT. SEE 12.2, "VENTING
THE T&P RELIEF VALVE", PG. 8

General Description

These SHC water heaters can be used in most point-of-use
applications. They are designed to supply hot water for hand
wash and kitchen sinks in a residential, commercial or in-
dustrial environment.
These water heaters can replace traditional hot water sys-
tems which consist of a central hot water heater with hot
water piping going to several draw-off points.
The SHC water heaters are lightweight and compact and
manufactured for easy installation. The units are designed to
be mounted on the wall. These units are designed to operate
under normal street water pressure.
