Fire Hazard / Electric Shock Hazard
• Do not use this water heater with
any voltage other than shown on the
model rating plate.
• Failure to use the correct voltage
shown on the model rating plate
could result in death, serious bodily
injury, or property damage.
Before making the conversion to 5500 watts, check the (1)
power supply . . . must be 240 volts, (2) wiring . . . 10 gauge
AWG @ Type TW, 60°C or equivalent, and (3) Circuit breakers
or fusing...capable of 30 amp loading. Also, the installation
must conform with this manual, local codes and electric utility
rules. Failure to comply can result in DEATH, SERIOUS BODILY
INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
HOTTER WATER CAN SCALD: Water heaters are intended
to produce hot water. Water heated to a temperature which
will satisfy clothes washing, dish washing, and other sanitizing
needs can scald and permanently injure you upon contact.
Some people are more likely to be permanently injured by
hot water than others. These include the elderly, children, the
infirm, or physically/mentally handicapped. If anyone using hot
water in your home fits into one of these groups or if there is a
local code or state law requiring a certain temperature water at
the hot water tap, then you must take special precautions. In
addition to using the lowest possible temperature setting that
satisfies your hot water needs, a means such as a mixing valve,
should be used at the hot water taps used by these people or
at the water heater. Mixing valves are available at plumbing
supply or hardware stores. Follow manufacturers instructions
for installation of the valves. Before changing the factory setting
on the thermostat, read the "Temperature Regulation" section
in this manual.
See Figure 7 for mixing valve usage.

Water Piping
FIGURE 7.
TO COLD WATER
iNLET ON
WATER HEATER
Figure 8 shows the attachment of the water piping to the
water heater. The water heater is equipped with 3/4" water
connections.
If a water heater is installed in a closed water supply system; such
as one having a back-flow preventer, check valve, water meter
with a check valve, etc.., in the cold water supply; means must
be provided to control thermal expansion. Contact the local utility
or Sears Service Center on how to control this situation.
NOTE: If using copper tubing, solder tubing to an adapter
before attaching the adapter to the water inlet connection,
Do not solder the water supply lines directly to the cold water
inlet. It will harm the dip tube and damage the tank.
Water temperature over 125°F
(52°C) can cause severe burns
instantly resultingin severeinjury
ordeath.
Children, the elderly, and the
physically or mentally disabled
are at highest risk for scald injury.
Feel water before bathing or
showering.
Temperature limiting valves are
available.
Read instruction manual for safe
temperature setting.
Property Damage Hazard
- Avoid water heater damage.
- Install thermal expansion tank if necessary.
- Do not apply heat to cold water inlet.
- Contact qualified installer or service agency.
NOTE: To protect against untimely corrosion of hot and cold
water fittings, it is strongly recommended that di-electric
unions or couplings be installed on this water heater when
connected to copper pipe,
