Connects WH Tank Cold inlet line to WH Tank Hot outlet line.....cold diluting hot out making it luke warm
Showers not turned off via cold/hot knobs but just with button on shower head handle....allows cold/hot mixing inside shower faucet making luke warm water
Your Atwood is gas only model with electronic ignition.
T-stat controls heating cycles.....140*F t-stat opens --closes at 110*F to reheat
ECO (Energy Cut Off---Hi temp t-stat) 180*F opens to shut down heating should Normal T-stat fail. Locks out heating and triggers RED Fault Light. ECO closes at 150*F but heating circuit has to be 'reset' by turning ON/OFF Switch OFF--Wait 30 seconds then back ON
T&P Relief Valve is last safety should t-stat & ECO fail. Opens at 210*F/150 PSI and will BLOW hot water/steam out of valve.
Turn Switch OFF, pull the DC Fuse for water heater, valve out propane....but shut it down should T&P Open
