WATER QUALITY AND MAINTENANCE

Test Supply Water

Test a sample of the supply water (makeup water) that will be used to fill the
outdoor furnace (softened water is recommended). Test strips for testing pH
are included in the water test kit which is provided with the outdoor furnace.
1. Collect a small sample of the water to be used to fill the outdoor furnace
in a clean container.
2. Dip a test strip from the test kit in the water sample for 1 second and
remove. Shake off excess liquid (very important to prevent water bleed
from one pad to the other). Compare the pH test pad to the color chart at
30 seconds.
3. If the pH level is between 6.5 and 8.0 and there are no other known water
quality problems, then the outdoor furnace may be filled with this water.
4. Water that has a pH level of less than 6.5 or greater than 8.0, or that
has other known water quality problems, should not be used to fill the
furnace. Instead, water should be supplied from a different source.

Adding Initial Water Treatment

Avoid damaging your furnace and voiding your warranty. Add water treatment
BEFORE adding water to the system. Water treatment in your outdoor furnace is just as
important as the oil in a car's engine.
MolyArmor 350 Corrosion Inhibitor (p/n 2900630) gives optimum protection
for the furnace water jacket and system parts when it is used to initially treat
the water and is maintained at a minimum of 350 ppm of moly and pH level
between 8.0 and 9.5. One unit of MolyArmor 350 is a 1-gallon (3.78-liter)
container.

CL 4030, CL 5036
1. Add the recommended amount of MolyArmor 350 to the outdoor
furnace.
NOTE: If the system has a larger than normal water capacity, more MolyArmor 350 should
be added at a recommended rate of 6.5 oz. (190 ml) per 10 gallons (37.8 liters) of system
water. One unit (1 gallon or 3.78 liters) of MolyArmor 350 will treat 200 gallons (757 liters)
of system water.
2. Fill the furnace and system using the instructions to ensure air is purged
from the system - refer to Installation Guide.
