QuickDraw STEAM WITH SINGLE-WALL / DOUBLE-WALL WARNING! Setting the temperature selector to higher settings provides hotter water which increases the risk of scald injury. Households with small children or invalids may require a 125°F or lower temperature setting to reduce the risk of scald injury. Allow a few days of operation at your selected setting to determine the correct temperature setting consistent with your needs. CONNECTING UNIT joints or studded connections. Shutof

QuickDraw STEAM WITH SINGLE-WALL / DOUBLE-WALL (con't) TROUBLESHOOTING NOTES Problem: 1. No hot water at even low flow a. Cause: Steam valve(s) not opening Solution: Check that electrical coils are energized. If not, trace wiring problem. If so, the valve may be faulty, the steam pressure inadequate to open the valve (< 5 psi depending on the valve), or the linkage (if applicable) is out of adjustment. b. Cause: Condensate flow is blocked Solution: Float-type traps will n

QuickDraw STEAM WITH SINGLE-WALL / DOUBLE-WALL (con't) b. Cause: Steam valve(s) not fully opening Solution: Check steam pressure before and after steam valve. The pressure drop should not be more than half of the inlet pressure. Check valve for blockage. Check linkage for adjustment. Check modulating signal (if applicable). Check the supplied voltage to the valve coil. c. Cause: Piping flow restricted. Solution: Calculate the flow velocity and expected friction loss. If excessi
