7. Visually inspect all pipe joints and equipment connections for leaks. If
necessary, drain system, repair leaks and re ll/purge the system. If no
pressure drop is detected for a period of two hours under pressure, the
system may be considered watertight.
8. When purging is completed, make sure the following are open—
combination shut-o /purge valve, shuto valve to pressure reducing ( ll
valve), shuto valve in cold water ll line, and shuto valve in return line.
9. Make sure the following are closed - all drain cocks, the vent on the
combination shuto -purge valve, & all manual vents. Reset zone valves to
normal mode of operation and turn o power to boiler.
10. Open fuel shuto valve, allowing fuel to ow to boiler.
Commission The Boiler
Adhere to the following when commissioning the boiler:
1. Verify with authorized personnel that the gas lines have been purged and
leak tested. Do not proceed without veri cation.
2. Familiarize all personnel on all aspects of boiler use, safety, and contents
of this manual. This includes, but is not limited to, the use of the controls,

NOTE:
Warranty coverage is valid only if the boiler is commissioned ("started
up") by a factory authorized service technician with a valid Endura Certi cate of
Authorization. The commissioning agency must successfully complete and return
the Fulton Installation and Operation Checklist report ("Start-up Report") to
Fulton within twelve (12) weeks of start-up. Combustion and maintenance records
detailing compliance with the Installation, Operation and Maintenance manual
must be produced for warranty consideration.
ƒ System Design and Boiler Operation
The boiler must be installed in an appropriately designed system per Installation
section of this manual.
1. The boiler shall be operated/controlled to ensure the boiler does not cycle
more than 12,000 times per year and the temperature di erential across
the boiler does not exceed 100°F (56°C).
2. Site speci c conditions including combustion air temperature, elevation,
fuel temperature, calori c value of the fuel, combustion air system design,
exhaust system design, voltage uctuations and other factors will impact
boiler performance.
3. Performance factors a ected may include but are not limited to input/
output ratings, e ciency, modulation rates and emissions.
4. The Fulton factory Test Fire Report should be used as a point of reference
in commissioning settings for the boilers in the eld, however a factory
certi ed service technician should account for all site conditions when
nalizing operational settings.

WARNING
Do not attempt to start the boiler for
any testing before lling and purging
the boiler. A dry re will seriously
damage the boiler and may result in
property damage or personnel injury
and is not covered by warranty.
Before commissioning the boiler,
verify with authorized personnel that
the gas lines have been purged.
Never attempt to operate a boiler
that has failed to pass all the safety
checks.
Never leave an opened manual air
vent unattended. In the event an
opened vent is left unattended, water
damage could occur.

CAUTION
Do not use this equipment if any part
has been under water or subjected
to heavy rains/water. Immediately
call a quali ed service technician to
inspect the equipment and to replace
any part of the control system and/or
gas control(s) which have been under
water.
The thermal shock warranty does not
cover damage due to cyclic fatigue.
L
NOTE
Turndown: Wind e ects on
combustion air supply and exhaust
terminations, natural draft "stack
e ect", and gas delivery systems
(among other site factors) will
ultimately determine what turndown
settings are optimal for each
application. Use a calibrated gas
ow meter (not supplied) to measure
burner input rates. Consult your
local manufacturer's representative
or service organization with factory
authorization speci c to the Endura
product line for guidance.
