For below slab installation refer to insulated supply and returns like ComfortPro Systems Microflex product range. For a wet or dry on plywood application, the mains can be installed within the joist cavity. Always allow for the expansion and contraction of the mains, as the temperature fluctuates. It is recommended that the pipe be allowed free movement and is not fastened directly to the floor joists.

AquaHeat AquaHeat ProZone Control System Zone Definition A Heating Zone is defined as an individual or grouped section of the whole heating system, which is controlled at once. In the simplest case a zone is characterized by a single floor loop of PEX pipe connected to a manifold. A Zone can also comprise of several floor heating loops connected to a manifold and controlled by a single controller/ther- mostat.
3. Connect the thermostats and sensors 4. Connect the pump power cable to the Master control module 5. Connect the transformer to either thermostat or AquaHeat ProZone master control box 6. After completed electrical wiring power-up the system 7. Check whether all zones are opening the actuators and the injection loop starts pumping 8.
Wiring Wiring of the system is divided into two groups of wires needed for the operation of the system. ComfortPro recommends using the following minimum wire diameters as defined by the American Wire Guide (AWG):...

AquaHeat ProZone Actuators AquaHeat Actuators (P/N 450001, 2 - wire) or (P/N 450002, 4 - wire) AquaHeat offers two kind of actuators for Promix and ProLock manifolds. AquaHeat actuators operate on 24VAC supply voltage and can be controlled through the ProZone Control Box or directly through the thermostat. Actuators come as 2 and 4 wire models. 4 wire models include an additional end switch (black and grey cable) which can be used to control a pump.
AquaHeat ProZone Actuators When the thermostatic element expands, it supplies the thrust required for automatic movement of the valve. The 4-wire version is provided with an auxiliary contact for additional commands (metering, control of pump, fan or other equipment). The actuator has a transparent window that allows to check the status of the actuator on the actuator cover.
AquaHeat ProZone Actuators Connecting the ProZone Actuator Actuators can either be connected directly to thermostats in a single zone environment or for multiple zones we emphasize the use of the ProZone Master control box. By using a ProZone master control box one or more actuators are being connected to a single zone at the zone connector bench.
AquaHeat Pro Zone Control Boxes Combining the Pro Zone Master/Slave/Timer Control Box Before connecting the thermostats and actuators the control boxes have to be properly connected. The fol- lowing combinations and positions mounted on a DIN-rail are possible. The units snap into each other after the Master cover is being removed.
AquaHeat Pro 4/6 Zone Master Control Box Pro 4 and 6 Zone Master with Pump Relay Box ProZone Master modules are the essential modules for any sophisticated control system. A Master module provides power supply to multiple zones. On-board pump relay controls the circulator and or mixing pumps directly.
AquaHeat Pro 4/6 Zone Slave Control Box Pro 4 and 6 Zone Slave Box ProZone Slave modules allow for the Zone extension of the Master module functionality. The easy clip-in extender provides a fast and reliable connection to the Master module. Two extension modules (P/N 450005 - 4 Zone, P/N 450006 - 6 Zone) are available if additional thermostats and actuators are needed for the system design.

AquaHeat Pro Series Thermostats ProChronotherm (P/N 450011) Pro Chronotherm thermostats contain an on-board clock to adjust temperature based on certain time of day. The functions are similar to Pro Basic thermostats and come with on-board sensor. Operating temperature 32°F – 122°F (0°C - 50°C) Comfort / Reduction mode 41°F - 95°F (5°C –...
AquaHeat Thermostat Dimensions Pro Basic (P/N 450008)/ Dual Sensor (P/N 450009) 3 1/8” (80mm) Installation Steps (see also product instruc- tions in package) 1. Lift temperature dial from thermostat 2. Loosen visible screw to open thermostat body 3. Pull connection wiring through appropriate bottom hole (optional external sensor wiring as well) 4.
Thermostat Wiring All AquaHeat ProZone Control System thermostats are wired via two or four cables. Two cables are required for sup- ply power and signaling to the thermostat and two wires are for driving the actuator directly to the actuator or through the ProZone Box.

AquaHeat Pro Series Thermostats Configuring Pro Series Thermostats for dual sensor applications Dual sensor thermostats allow to regulate between two separate temperature measurements. For proper adjustment of room and floor temperature it might become necessary to deviate from the pre-configured thermostat settings. AquaHeat ProBasic and ProDigital Dual Sensor thermostat both are configurable for either only internal, only external sensor or both, in which case the external (floor) sensor is used as a temperature limiter.

AquaHeat Pro Series Thermostats Pro Digital Configuration Pro Digital dual sensing thermostats offer a wide variety of user configurable options. For details we refer to the product specification sheet coming with the unit. To configure the ProDigital thermostat for multi sensor applications the setup menu needs to be entered.
AquaHeat Pro Zone Transformer Connecting the ProZone Transformer The ProZone transformer (part # 450014) comes with 120VAC on the primary side and transforms power to 24VAC on the second- ary side. The total Power output is 60VA. As a separate box it is connected to either a 4 or a 6 ProZone Master control box. In small installations (up to 3 actuators) you might connect the transformer directly to the actuators and thermostats.
AquaHeat ProStat External Sensors Installing External Sensors Pro Series thermostats come with or without external sensor (probe) for measuring the exact slab temperature or floor temperature in addition to the room temperature. When installing a separate sensor it is important to maintain a minimum separation of 18”...
