the overflow tube hole in the motorhome's bay floor prior to
beginning this antifreeze and water heating solution fill proce-

600-D Hydronic Heating System Installation Manual
section 10: Purging the system

Purging the Hydronic Heating System:

In order to provide the best freeze protection, boil-over
protection, and anti-corrosion and rust protection, a
50/50 mixture of "GRAS" approved propylene glycol
antifreeze and water is recommended.
Reference Appendices D through F for additional
information regarding the antifreeze and water heating
solution. Be sure to use a "GRAS" boiler-type pro-
pylene glycol based antifreeze rather than an RV and
Marine antifreeze or an automotive antifreeze/coolant.
If assistance is needed in selecting an appropriate
50/50 antifreeze and water mixture, please contact
the Aqua-Hot Heating Systems Product Application
Department at 1-800-685-4298.
1.
Open the Aqua-Hot's drain valve located at the front
of the heater. Reference Figure 46.
2.
Connect a piece of ½ inch PEX tubing (this piece
should be long enough to be used to transport the
antifreeze and water heating solution from its source to
the Aqua-Hot) to the drain valve.
