Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What is the purpose of a thermostat?
A. It is a regulating device that senses temperature changes and activates the device as the temperature reaches a certain point.
Q. What is the use of coated thermal elements?
A. The valve features coated thermal elements to protect against corrosion and mineral build-up. This coating also isolates copper from galvanic action within the heater.
Q. What is the purpose of a test lever in the relief valve?
