To reduce the risk of excessive pressures and temperatures in this water heater, install temperature and pressure
protective equipment required by local codes but no less than a combination temperature relief valve certied by a
nationally recognized testing laboratory that maintains periodic inspection of production of listed equipment or materials,
as meeting the requirements for Relief Valves and Automatic Shutoff Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI
Z21.22-latest edition. This valve must be marked with a maximum set pressure not to exceed the marked working
pressure of the water heater. Install the valve into an opening provide and marked for this purpose in the water heater,
and orient it or provide tubing so that any discharge from the valve will exit only within 6 inches above, or at any distance
below, the structural oor, and cannot contact any live electrical part. The discharge opening must not be blocked or
