CHAPTER 4: Installation Instructions
WARNING!
Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds in the boiler system.
Damage of seals and gaskets in boiler and system could occur, resulting in substantial
property damage and/or danger.
The central heating installation needs to be filled with clean water. Use only clean water or
approved glycol for filling the heating system.
When the water hardness of the filling water exceeds 9 grains, the water must be treated until
below the maximum value of 9 grains.
The pH value of the installation water must be between 6.5 and 8. Check the pH value using
proper equipment or by having the water analyzed by a water treatment company.
If pH differs from above, contact AERCO engineering for further assistance.
WARNING!
Failure to adhere to the water quality requirements will result in a voidance of
warranty.
