E. Condensate Overflow Switch and Condensate
Trap Removal and Replacement:
For removal or replacement of the condensate
overflow switch and/or condensate trap follow the
steps below. For parts identification, refer to Section
XIII “Repair Parts”.
1. Condensate Overflow Switch Removal and
Replacement:
a. Disconnect power supply to boiler.
b. Remove 2 wire nuts and disconnect overflow
switch wire pigtails from boiler wiring.
c. Using pliers, release spring clip securing the
overflow switch to condensate trap body and
remove the switch. Note that the switch has
factory applied silicon adhesive seal, which
may have to be carefully cut all around to
facilitate the switch removal.
d. Insure the trap overflow switch port is not
obstructed with silicon seal debris, clean as
needed.
e. Apply silicon sealant to the replacement switch
threads and install the switch into the trap
body making sure it is properly oriented - the
arrow molded into the switch hex end side
must face down for proper switch operation.
See Figure 47 “Condensate Overflow Switch
Orientation” for details.
f. Reconnect the switch wire pigtails to the boiler
wiring and secure with wire nuts.
g. Restore power supply to boiler. Fill up the trap
(see Section V “Condensate Disposal”) and
verify the switch operation.
2. Condensate Trap Removal and Reinstallation:
a. Disconnect power supply to boiler.
b. Remove 2 wire nuts and disconnect overflow
switch wire pigtails from boiler wiring.

Poison Hazard. Use
only inhibited propylene glycol solutions
specifically formulated for hydronic systems.
Do not use ethylene glycol, which is toxic and
can attack gaskets and seals used in hydronic
systems. Use of ethylene glycol could result in
property damage, personal injury or death.
