25 Stacking Stacking occurs when a series of short draws of hot water (3 gallons or less) are taken from the water heater tank. This causes increased cycling of the burner and can result in increased water temperatures at the hot water outlet. A tempering valve must be installed in the hot water supply line to reduce the risk of scald injury . W at[...]

26 OPERA TIONAL CONDITIONS MAINTENANCE W ater Heater Sounds During the normal operation of the water heater , sounds or noises may be heard. These noises are common and may result from the following: 1. Normal expansion and contraction of metal parts during periods of heat-up and cool-down. 2. Sediment buildup in the tank bottom will create varying[...]
