It is important to purge the system of air to avoid damage to the boiler.
E. PURGE AIR FROM SYSTEM
IMPORTANT! While commissioning the system, the air vent on top of the boiler must remain fully open to allow the boiler to properly
fill. Failure to keep the air vent open could lead to improper boiler and system operation.
To purge air from the system:
a. Connect a hose to the purge valve and route hose to an area where water can drain and be seen.
b. Close the boiler or system isolation valve between the purge valve and fill connection to the system.
c. Close zone isolation valves.
d. Open quick-fill valve on cold water make-up line.
e. Open purge valve.
f. Open the isolation valves one zone at a time. Allow water to run through the zone, pushing out the air. Run water until no
noticeable air flow is present. Close the zone isolation valves and proceed with the next zone. Follow this procedure until all
zones are purged.
g. Close the quick-fill water valve and purge valve and remove the hose. Open all isolation valves. Watch the system pressure
rise to correct cold-fill pressure. It is recommended that you put the pumps into manual operation to assist in purging the
circuits.
h. Disconnect the wires that are connected to the THERMOSTAT terminals of the terminal block. Apply power to the boiler.
After the control goes through the start-up sequence, the display will turn off.

k. The boiler and CH system pumps will come on. Run pumps as required to help bleed out all entrapped air. Some good
indicators that air is removed include the absence of gurgling noises in the pipes and pump operation becoming very quiet.
Test mode will stop automatically after the set time (default is five minutes), or press the

n. The DHW indirect pump will come on. Run pump as required to help bleed out all entrapped air. Some good indicators that
air is removed include the absence of gurgling noises in the pipes and pump operation becoming very quiet. Test mode will
stop automatically after the set time (default is five minutes), or press the
o. After the system has operated for some time, eliminate any residual air by using the manual air vents located throughout the
system.
p. If purge valves are not installed in the system, open manual air vents in the system one at a time, beginning with the lowest
floor. Close vent when water squirts out. Repeat with remaining vents.
q. Refill to correct pressure.
F. CHECK THERMOSTAT CIRCUIT(S)
1. Disconnect the two external wires connected to the boiler thermostat terminals (low voltage terminal strip).
2. Connect a voltmeter across these two incoming wires with power supplied to the thermostat circuits. Close each thermostat, zone
valve and relay in the external circuit one at a time and check the voltmeter reading across the incoming wires.
3. There should NEVER be a voltage reading.
4. If a voltage reading does occur under any condition, check and correct the external wiring. (This is a common problem when using 3-
wire zone valves.)
5. Once the external thermostat circuit wiring is checked and corrected if necessary, reconnect the external thermostat circuit wires to
the boiler low voltage terminal strip. Allow the boiler to cycle.
G. CONDENSATE REMOVAL
1. This is a high efficiency condensing boiler. Therefore, the boiler has a condensate drain. Condensate fluid is nothing more than water
derived from combustion products, similar to that produced by an automobile when it is initially started.
