allowable working pressure. Boiler provided with
30 psig (206 kPa) safety relief valve.
When installing safety relief valve it must be

installed in a vertical position with spindle at
top.
System pressure above 43 psi [2.96 bar] WILL

WARNING
• Poison hazard. Ethylene glycol is toxic. Do not use
ethylene glycol.
• Never use automotive or standard glycol antifreeze,
even ethylene glycol made for hydronic systems.
• Ethylene glycol can attack gaskets and seals used in
hydronic systems.
• Do not use petroleum based cleaning or sealing
compounds boiler system.
• Do not fill boiler or boiler system with softened
water.
• Use only inhibited propylene glycol solutions
certified by fluid manufacturer as acceptable for use
with closed water heating system.
• Thoroughly clean and flush any system that used
glycol before installing new Boiler.
• Provide user with Material Safety Data Sheet
(MSDS) on fluid used.

WARNING
Boiler and its individual shutoff valve shall be
disconnected from gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2 psi (3.40 kPa - 34.47 mbar).
Boiler shall be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of gas supply piping system
at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
Install boiler so that gas ignition system components
are protected from water (dripping, spraying,rain,
etc.) during appliance operation and service (circulator
replacement, condensate trap, control replacement,
etc.).
5.1 General
• Primary/Secondary piping required.
• Install piping in accordance with authority having
jurisdiction.
• Support system piping and safety relief valve discharge
piping. Boiler's internal piping and wall mount bracket
can be damaged if subjected to excessive weight.
The intended use of the internal heat exchanger pump
is a boiler loop. Do not use as a primary system pump.
• A micro bubble air elimination device is manufacturer
required.
• Size central heating pump (and domestic hot water
pump, if used) for system requirements only. Internal
heat exchanger pump compensates for pressure drop
through boiler internal piping and heat exchanger.
• Thoroughly clean and flush system before connecting
to boiler.
• If oil is present in system water, use approved
detergent to wash system.
• It is necessary to semi-annually check the water
quality of central heating systems.
• Flush system to remove any solid objects such as metal
chips, fibers, or Teflon tape, etc.
• Flush system until water runs clean and piping is free
of sediment.
• Use purge valve to flush zoned systems, each zone
separately. If purge valves and isolation valves are not
installed, install them to properly clean the system.
