  • Page 3: General Information

    1-A. HOW IT OPERATES When the room thermostat calls for heat, the Munchkin control board will start the pump and start to monitor the return temperature of the system before the heater will begin to heat the water. Once the controller has sensed a drop in the return water temperature below the temperature set point minus the differential set point, the boiler will start to heat the water.
  • Page 4: 1-B. Location

    Choose a location for your Munchkin, centralized to the piping system, along with consideration to vent pipe length. The length of vent pipe increases the firing rate of the Munchkin decreases. You must also locate the Munchkin where it will not be exposed to freezing temperatures.
  • Page 5: 3-A. Gas Connection

    " tee, and a drip leg fabricated, as per the National Fuel Gas code. You must ensure that the entire gas line to the connection at the Munchkin is no smaller than ". Once all the inspections have been performed, the piping must be leak tested.
  • Page 6: Venting

    The gas pressure must remain between 7" and 14" during stand-by and unit running heat cycle. If an in-line regulator is used, it must be a minimum of 10 feet from the Munchkin. It is very important that the gas line is properly purged by the gas supplier or utility.
  • Page 7: 4-B. For Longer Vent Lengths

    All venting must be properly supported, as the Munchkin is not intended to support any venting whatsoever. All piping, glue, solvents, cleaners, fittings and components, must conform to ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials), and ANSI ( American National Standard Institute).
  • Page 8: 4-D. Cleaner/Cement

    It is very important that the condensate line is sloped away from and down to a suitable inside drain, if the condensate outlet on the Munchkin is lower than the drain, you must use a condensate removal pump. A condensate filter and a condensate pump kit are available from HTP.

  • Page 10: 5-A. Hydronic Heat Piping

    5-A. HYDRONIC HEAT PIPING The Munchkin is designed to function in a closed loop 15 PSI System. To assure that there is adequate pressure in the system, we have installed in the Outlet Manifold, a pressure switch which will not let the Munchkin operate without a minimum of 10 PSI water pressure.

    6-C. LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING WARNING!! If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result, causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life. 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.
  • Page 14: Servicing

    PART 7 SERVICING 7-A. SEQUENCE OF OPERATION When power is first applied to the control, the control will initially run through a self-diagnostic routine and then go into its operating mode. If there is no call for heat, the System will go into the idle state. If the thermostat is calling for heat, the control will apply power to the circulator pump.
  • Page 15: 7-C Munchkin Boiler Fault Led Code

    7-C MUNCHKIN BOILER FAULT LED CODE: When a fault condition occurs or is sensed on the WHC1100 Munchkin Controller or in the appliance, the control board goes to a LOCKOUTstate. When in the LOCKOUTstate, the green LED located on the WHC1100 Control board will flash a fault code. The number of times to LED flashes ON/OFF will determine the nature of the fault (see the table below).
  • Page 16 Open Temperature Sensor On Inlet (Probe Fault) — 5 PULSES ! The control will sense an open temperature probe. If an open probe is sensed, the control will go into the lockout state. Verify that the Inlet probe is properly connected to the control board. If the temperature probe is in an environment of less then 0°F then wait for ambient temperature to rise or apply heat to the unit.
  • Page 17: 8-A. Maintenance Procedures

    Heat Exchanger - in the unlikely event boiler flue passage is becoming blocked, service must be performed only by an authorized Heat Transfer Products Representative or Certified Installing Contractor. Burner - check burner for deterioration. If deterioration is observed, change burner.
