Hot water outlet pipes leaving unit can be hot to the touch. Insulation must be used for hot water pipes located
36˝ (92 cm) or less from ground level due to burn risk to children.
SAFETY NOTE: Commercial units (TC Series) are designed forcommercial settings only, and can be set as high
as 180°F (82° C) for industrial processes including sterilization of equipment andutensils. EXTREME CAREshould
be taken when setting temperatures higher than140°F ( 60°C), such temperatures should not be directly used in
the shower or intended for contact with skin, there is risk of injury.
Bollente strongly suggests installing an appropriate Temperature, Pressure and Relief (TP&R) safety valve per
local code. Consult your plumber or professional service provider.
This unit should not be installed in a location where it may be exposed to freezing temperatures
(less than 32°F (0°C).)
CAUTION: This unit comes equipped with freeze protection. However, in the event that electrical power is lost
or is disconnected from the unit, there is NO freeze protection. FREEZE PROTECTION OF THE WATER HEATER
IS ONLY POSSIBLE WHEN ELECTRICITY AND NORMAL WATER HEATER FUNCTIONS ARE ENABLED. If you expect
freezing conditions while electrical supply is interrupted, WATER MUST BE COMPLETELY DRAINED FROM
WATER HEATER.
The installation of auto drain down solenoid valves is optional. However, Bollente strongly recommends that
these valves be installed so that water may be drained from the unit to prevent damage from freezing in case the
normal freeze protection should become disabled. If the valves are not installed, then any product damage due
to freezing will not be covered by the warranty.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS INSTRUCTION VOIDS ALL WARRANTIES.
The unit should be located in an area where water leakage from the unit or connections will not result in
damage to the area adjacent to the unit. If such a location cannot be avoided it is recommended that a drain
pan be installed under the unit.
