4B.5 Freeze Protection – Water Heater
Brute Magnum heaters are not designed to be 
placed outdoors, due to the potential for condensate to 
freeze in the unit.
Power outage, interruption of gas supply, failure 
of system components, activation of safety devices, 
etc., may prevent a heater from firing. Any time a 
heater is subjected to freezing conditions, and the 
heater is not able to fire, and/or the water is not 
able to circulate, there is a risk of freezing in the 
heater or in the pipes in the system. 
 When water 
freezes, it expands. This can result in bursting of pipes 
in the system, or damage to the heater, which could 
result in leaking or flooding conditions.
For installations where temperatures are 
expected to fall below 15°F inside the boiler cabinet, 
the actuating gas valve  must be equipped with a gas 
valve heater, part number R2010100. Note that some 
gas trains such as the IRI option may have double 
actuators, and may require two gas valve heaters.
