VI Venting WARNING • IMPROPER VENTING MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR THE RELEASE OF FLUE GASES, WHICH CONTAIN DEADLY CARBON MONOXIDE (CO), INTO THE HOME, WHICH CAN CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. • INSPECT EXISTING CHIMNEY BEFORE INSTALLING BOILER. FAILURE TO CLEAN OR REPLACE DAMAGED PIPE OR TILE LINING WILL CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. Vent installation must be in accordance with local building codes, or the local authority having jurisdiction.

VII system Piping WARNING • INSTALL BOILER SO THAT THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS ARE PROTECTED FROM WATER (DRIPPING, SPRAYING, RAIN, ETC.) DURING APPLIANCE OPERATION AND SERVICE (CIRCULATOR REPLACEMENT, ETC.). • OPERATION OF THIS BOILER WITH CONTINUOUS RETURN TEMPERATURES BELOW 120°F CAN CAUSE SEVERE HEAT EXCHANGER CORROSION DAMAGE. • OPERATION OF THIS BOILER IN A SYSTEM HAVING SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF DISSOLVED OXYGEN CAN CAUSE SEVERE HEAT EXCHANGER CORROSION DAMAGE.

1) Relief valve (Required) - Mount the relief valve on the top left side of the boiler as shown in Figure 7.1 using the 3/4” nipple provided. The relief valve shipped with the boiler is set to open at 30 psi. This valve may be replaced with one having a pressure up to the “Maximum Allowable Working Pressure”...
FIGurE 7.2: InDIrEct WatEr HEatEr BOIlEr sIDE PIPInG FIGurE 7.3: BOIlEr BYPass PIPInG Piping for special situations Certain types of heating systems have additional requirements. Some of the more common variations follow: 1) Indirect Water Heaters - Figure 7.2 shows typical indirect water heater piping. Boiler piping is the same as for any two- zone system.
Page 18
3) Low Temperature Systems - Some systems, such as radiant tubing systems, require the system water temperature to be limited to a value below the temperature of the water leaving the TWZ. These systems also typically have return temperatures well below the 120°F minimum. Figure 7.4 illustrates the use of a heat exchanger to connect the TWZ boiler to this type of system.
VIII tankless Heater Piping If the TWZ is installed with an optional tankless heater, pipe the heater as shown in Figure 8.1. The components in this system and their functions are as follows: 1) Mixing Valve (Required) - During the heating season, the water exiting the tankless heater may be 180 degrees or more. The mixing valve blends hot water leaving the tankless heater with cold water so as to maintain the hot water supplied to the fixtures at a fixed temperature.
FIGurE 8.1: tanKlEss HEatEr PIPInG IX Fuel line Piping WARNING • UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES CAN COPPER WITH SWEAT STYLE CONNECTORS BE USED. • DO NOT USE COMPRESSION FITTINGS. • OIL PIPING MUST BE ABSOLUTELY AIRTIGHT OR LEAKS OR LOSS OF PRIME MAY RESULT. • SOME JURISDICTIONS REQUIRE THE USE OF A FUSIBLE SHUTOFF VALVE AT THE TANK AND/OR THE BURNER. IN ADDITION, SOME JURISDICTIONS REQUIRE THE USE OF A FUSIBLE ELECTRICAL INTERLOCK WITH THE BURNER CIRCUIT. CHECK YOUR LOCAL CODES FOR SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS.

FIGurE 9.1: OnE-PIPE GraVItY sYstEM Depending on the location of the fuel oil storage tank in relation to an oil burner, there are four types of oil piping systems generally being used: a) ONE-PIPE GRAVITY SYSTEM - used when a fuel oil storage tank is positioned above an oil burner fuel pump. See Figure 9.1.
Page 22
3” - 4” above suction line depth within the storage tank. Refer to the pump manufacturer’s instructions for tube sizing information. 8) All systems require an oil filter. On TWZ065 and TWZ075 boilers, the use of a Garber cartridge type filter is recommended.
FIGurE 9.4: tWO-PIPE lIFt sYstEM X Wiring WARNING • All wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with the authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such requirements, with the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70). • Disconnect electrical power to the boiler and heating system before servicing. Positively assure that no voltage is present.
• 1,2,3 - Used to connect EnviraCom thermostat, or other EnviraCOM device, approved by Crown for use with this boiler (refer to instructions provided with EnviraCOM device). 3) Adding a Second Circulator Zone - The control provided on TWZ boilers can be used to control a second heating or DHW circulator zone.
XI start-up and checkout Use the following procedure for initial start-up of the boiler: WARNI NG • Never attempt to fill a hot empty boiler. • Make sure that the area around the boiler is clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.

Or (Circulator Overrun) - Determines how long the Heating Circulator will operate after the call for heat ends. In some cases, this can help reduce energy consumption by sending heat stored in the boiler out into the system. At the same time, caution should be exercised before setting this value to something other than zero.
Page 37
St (Thermal Purge Start Temperature) - See description for Thermal Purge Time above. Pt (DHW Priority) - If this feature is turned on, and simultaneous calls for heat and DHW are present, the heating circulator will be forced off for as long as it takes the boiler to satisfy the call for DHW. This feature is sometimes useful when the boiler size is marginal for the peak DHW demand, but should be used with caution as it can result in lack of heat if the DHW call is very long, or if there is a problem with the DHW zone which causes the DHW demand to be indefinite.
XIII service and Maintenance WARNING All boiler cleaning must be completed with the burner service switch turned off. Boilers equipped with burner swing door have a potential hazard which can cause severe property damage, personal injury or loss of life if ignored. Before opening swing door, turn off service switch to boiler to prevent accidental firing of burner outside the combustion chamber.
Page 39
WARNING The boiler must be connected to an approved chimney in good condition. Serious property damage could result if the boiler is connected to a dirty or inadequate chimney. The interior of the chimney flue must be inspected and cleaned before the start of the heating season and should be inspected periodically throughout the heating season for any obstructions.

Important Product Safety Information Refractory Ceramic Fiber Product Warning: The Parts list designates parts that contain refractory ceramic fibers (RCF). RFC has been classified as a possible human carcinogen. When exposed to temperatures about 1805°F, such as during direct flame contact, RFC changes into crystalline silica, a known carcinogen.
2) Flame Shape - As seen for the observation port, the flame should appear straight with no sparklers rolling up toward the crown of the chamber. If the flame drags to the right or left, sends sparklers upward or makes wet spots on the chamber walls, the nozzle should be replaced.
Page 42
B. control system The following pages contain trouble shooting tables for use in diagnosing control problems. When using these tables the following should be kept in mind: 1) This information is only meant to be used by a professional heating technician as an aid in diagnosing boiler problems. 2) Where applicable, follow all precautions outlined in the Section XI (Start-up and Checkout).
