Indirect Water Heater
When water conditions dictate its use, an indirect water heater is used instead of a Plate heat Exchanger to make
domestic hot water. An Indirect Water Heater uses an internal coil to heat the domestic water in an insulated
stainless steel storage tank. The internal coil separates the boiler water from the domestic water. It is connected to
the boiler as a heating zone with a zone valve or zone circulator. The boiler circulator pumps hot boiler water
through the internal coil heating the domestic water stored in the tank.
Boiler Mounting
BOILER MOUNTING on TANK STAND, FIG. 2C: Ensure that the boiler is properly mounted to the stand using the
5/16" hardware provided. Bolts should face up so they cannot interfere with removal of the tank at a later time.
Holes in boiler legs must line up with holes in the tank stand.
LO-BOY TANK ORIENTATION: The 40 gallon Lo-Boy tank should be positioned with the tank drain pointing
towards the front left corner of the drain pan. Push the tank all the way to the back of the stand. Center the tank left
to right in the stand.
PIPING SO THE DOOR CAN OPEN: To avoid conflicts with the door opening, piping should be in accordance
with FIG. 6B, 6C and the section on "Clearance for Cleaning and Service" in the Installation or Tech Manual. The
door opens and drops into the notches on the boiler legs. The burner and air box also need clearance when the
door opens. Do not locate any piping in front of the tank unless clearance from the door is verified. This also applies
to the oil line piping and the combustion air piping. NOTICE: Air inlet pipe must be disconnected to allow door to
swing down.
BOILER MOUNTING on STANDARD BASE, FIG. 6B: The back support bar should be mounted to the holes just in
front of the 2" slot. Line up the rear holes in the legs with the holes in the back support bar. Two sets of 5/16" x 1-
1/2" bolting hardware are provided and are used to secure the boiler to the back support bar.
