ELECTRICAL WIRING
Electrical Power Connections
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing
controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and
dangerous operation! Verify proper operation a er
servicing.
Au moment de l'entretien des commandes, étiquetez
tous les ls avant de les débrancher. Des erreurs de
câblage peuvent entraîner un fonctionnement
inadéquat et dangereux. S'assurer que l'appareil
fonctionne adéquatement une fois l'entretirn terminé.
e electrical connections to this boiler/water heater must be made
in accordance with all applicable local codes and the latest revision
of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA-70. Installation should
also conform with CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part I if
installed in Canada.
Install a separate 120 volt 15 or 20 amp circuit breaker for the
boiler/water heater and pump, see Table 12. A properly rated shut-
o switch should be located at the boiler/water heater. e boiler/
water heater must be grounded in accordance with the authority
having jurisdiction, or if none, the latest revision of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA-70.

Line voltage eld wiring of any controls or other devices must
conform to the temperature limitation of type T wire at 95°F, 35°C
above room temperature. Use copper conductors with a minimum
size of #14 awg. Use appropriate wiring materials for units installed
outdoors. e wire size must be compatible with the total amp
draw of the circuit.
Refer to the wiring diagram supplied with the boiler/water heater
for proper wiring connections.
GENERAL OPERATION
Before proceeding read and fully understand the
instructions contained in this manual. Do not a empt
to operate this boiler/water heater if it has not been
installed in accordance with the guidelines set forth
in this manual. Failure to comply with this warning
can result in extensive property damage, severe personal
injury or death!
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut o , turn o
the manual gas control valve to the appliance. Do not interrupt
water ow through the boiler/water heater.
En cas de surchau e ou si l'alimentation en gaz ne s'arrête pas, fermez
manuellement le robinet d'arrêt de l'admission de gaz.
Hydronic Heating Boilers
Open the make-up water valve and slowly ll the boiler and all
of the radiation with water. Ensure that all bleed and drain valves
are closed.
Adjust the make-up water pressure regulator so a minimum 12 psig,
83 kPa system pressure is maintained at the highest point in the
system piping. If a make-up water pump is used adjust it to maintain
a minimum 12 psig, 83 kPa system pressure.
Open the system bleed and drain valves one at a time to purge the
air trapped in the heating system piping.
With the boiler o , run the system pump for at least 30 minutes
and bleed the system piping using the bleed valves. If strainers are
used in the system piping, the make-up water valve should be closed
and the strainers checked and cleaned.
e system expansion tank should be checked to ensure that the
correct water level in the tank is maintained. e tank should be
less than half full of water with the system full and adjusted to the
correct operating pressure.
Start the boiler as described in the “OPE TING INSTRUCTIONS”.
Run the boiler for at least an hour. e system pump(s) and all
radiation units must be operated during this time. Ensure that the
make-up water valve is open.
Shut the boiler o and open the bleed valves to purge the air trapped
in the heating system piping. Close the make-up water valve and
check and clean the strainers and make-up water pressure reducing
valve.
Open the make-up water valve and adjust the system pressure if
necessary. e system should be checked and bled a er three days
of operation.
