Priming Condensate Trap
The condensate trap should be primed with water prior
to start-up to ensure proper condensate drainage. Either
pour 10 fl. oz. (300 ml) of water into the trap, or follow
these steps to prime the trap:
1.
Follow the lighting instructions to place the unit into
operation.
2.
Set the thermostat to initiate a heating demand.
3.
Allow the burners to fire for approximately 3 minutes.
4.
Adjust the thermostat to deactivate the heating
demand.
5.
Wait for the combustion air inducer to stop. Set the
thermostat to initiate a heating demand and again
allow the burners to fire for approximately 3 minutes.
6.
Adjust the thermostat to deactivate the heating demand
and wait for the combustion air inducer to stop. At this
point, the trap should be primed with sufficient water to
ensure proper condensate drain operation.
If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire
or explosion may result causing property damage,
personal injury or death.

operation. Switch is factory set and requires no
adjustment.
3.
After a 15 second pre-purge, the hot surface ignitor
energizes.
4.
After a 20 second ignitor warm-up period, the gas
valve solenoid opens. A 4-second "Trial for Ignition"
period begins.
5.
Gas is ignited, flame sensor proves the flame, and the
