Fill And Test Water System - Westinghouse WBRCNG140W Installation Manual

1. This appliance does not have pilot. It is equipped with an ignition device which automatically lights the burner. Do not try to light the
burner by hand.
2. BEFORE OPERATING: smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because some gas is heavier
than air and will settle on the floor.

Do not try to light any appliance.

Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone in your building.

Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone. Follow the gas suppliers' instructions.

If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

Turn off gas shutoff valve (located outside of the appliance) so that the handle is crosswise to the gas pipe. If the handle will
not turn by hand, don't try to force or repair it, call a qualified service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire
or explosion.
4. Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance
and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control that has been damaged.
5. The appliance shall be installed so the gas ignition system components are protected from water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.)
during appliance operation and service (circulator replacement, condensate trap, control replacement, etc.)
Failure to follow these instructions could result in property damage, serious personal injury, or death.
If you discover any evidence of a gas leak, shut down the appliance at once. Find the leak source with a bubble test and repair
immediately. Do not start the appliance again until the leak is repaired. Failure to comply could result in substantial property damage,
severe personal injury, or death.
C. FILL AND TEST WATER SYSTEM
Ensure the appliance is full of water before firing the burner. Failure to do so will damage the appliance. Such damage IS NOT covered
by warranty, and could result in property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
1. Fill the system only after ensuring water chemistry meets the requirements listed in this manual.
2. Close the manual and automatic air vents and appliance drain valve.
3. Fill to the correct system pressure. Correct pressure will vary with each application.
a. Typical cold water fill pressure for a CH residential system is 12 psi.
b. Pressure will rise when appliance is turned on and system water temperature increases. Operating pressure of the CH
system should never exceed 25 psi, and must never exceed the relief valve pressure setting.
4. At initial fill and during appliance startup and testing, check system thoroughly for leaks. Repair all leaks before proceeding further.
Eliminate all system leaks. Continual fresh make-up water will reduce appliance life. Minerals can build up in the heat exchanger,
reducing heat transfer, overheating the heat exchanger, causing heat exchanger failure and possibly resulting in property damage,
severe personal injury, or death.
5. The system may have residual substances that could affect water chemistry. After the system has been filled and leak tested, verify
that water pH and chlorine concentrations are acceptable by sample testing.
It is important to purge the system of air to avoid damage to the appliance.
