schematic diagram below) , all piping and other components connected to the system must
be suitable for potable water, (b) toxic chemicals such as those commonly used for boiler
treatment to prevent corrosion and freezing must not be introduced into the system, and
(c) if the space heating requires water temperatures higher than those required for do-
mestic, potable water, a mixing valve or other similar device must be provided to reduce
scald hazard potential, (d) maximum system water temperature must not exceed 140°F
(60°C). DO NOT CONVERT AN EXISTING, CLOSED HOT WATER HEATING SYSTEM TO A
COMBINATION SPACE AND POTABLE WATER HEATING SYSTEM USING THE AQUASTAR

2. Carefully plan where you install the heater. Correct
combustion air supply and flue pipe installation are very
important. If not installed correctly, fatal accidents can be
caused by lack of air, carbon monoxide poisoning or fire.
3. The place where you install the heater must have
enough ventilation. The National Fire Codes do not allow
water heater installation in bathrooms, bedrooms or any
occupied rooms normally kept closed. See the section
below on locating the heater.
