A THREE-POLE SWITCH MUST BE INSTALLED ON THE ELECTRICAL
SUPPLY LINE OF THE UNIT. THE SWITCH MUST BE INSTALLED IN AN
EASILY ACCESSIBLE POSITION TO QUICKLY AND SAFELY

Many soaps used for gas pipe leak testing are corrosive to metals. The
piping must be rinsed thoroughly with clean water after leak checks have
been completed.
DO NOT use this boiler if any part has been under water. Call a qualified
service technician to inspect and replace any part that has been under
water.
