AMX300 DIRECTCONNECT™ MIXING VALVE KITS WARNING CAUTION Water inside the water heater is very hot and presents a scalding hazard. If the AMX300 mixing valve kit is being installed on a water heater that is already operational, be careful when draining the hot water supply lines in preparation for connecting the mixing valve kit. Applying heat to these valves can damage the mixing valve's internal components, causing it to not regulate the mixed water temperature properly.
