                        SECTION III:  GENERAL INFORMATION    FEATURES    The Bradford White EVERHOT® IGE series tankless water heater is a high output, high efficiency  appliance, which heats the water continuously as hot water is being drawn for use.  Unlike tank type  storage water heaters, this water heater does not store hot water.  The burner operates whenever there is  a demand for hot water and is off when the water flow stops.  Hot water is continuously supplied for any  length of time required, as long as the

                          2. In order to service the water heater in the event the heat exchanger needs to be flushed from lime  deposits, tee fittings with shut off valves and service connections to hoses should be installed.   Also install a shut off valve to the hot water supply to isolate the service tee fittings.  A plumbing  installation kit, which includes these fittings and a pressure relief valve, is available from your  supplier.  Refer to piping diagrams (fig. 2-5) at the end of Section V.    3.

                        Recommended Piping for Power Failure Freeze Protection    As long as electrical power and gas are supplied to the EVERHOT® water heater, freeze protection is  provided to the heat exchanger and piping inside the water heater with ambient temperatures as cold as  -30°F (-34°C), when protected from direct wind exposure.  In the event of a power failure at temperatures  below freezing, the water heater must be drained of all water to prevent freeze damage.  The water  heater may be drained manually
