NextGen Boilers piped in parallel (cascade) to achieve higher BTU output [1] - boilers [2] - additional expansion tank - if needed NextGen Boiler piped in a primary/secondary (P/S) configuration. Consider P/S when higher flow rates are necessary and when the boiler meets the intended heatloss of the hydronic system.
Siz ing of t he NextGe n Bo il er It is very important to conduct a heatloss analysis of the intended heated space. Select the boiler size in kW based on its Btu/hr. rating that best meets the designed heatloss. It is important not to overly exceed the kW sizing as this will lead to unnecessary costs of boiler, wiring and materials.
Plumbing Instal lat io n Gu id el in es Remove outer screws at the bottom and at the top of boiler and carefully open the front cover. The boiler is wall hung and must be installed in a vertical position where plumbing connections are located at the bottom.

Thermostat - This boiler can be signaled to turn on from a standard two wire thermostat, end switches of an actuating valve or a zone control panel. These connections should all be voltage free (dry OP TT contact). Extend wires from thermostat to TT connections on control panel using 2 x 18 gauge wires.
12 psi expansion tank reading or higher depending on application (15-20 psi recommended). 4. For testing, turn the thermostat above the room temperature reading. This will turn the boiler on. After testing return the thermostat to a comfort setting.
DETAILS The LED in the first location on the display indicates automatic setting, according to the heating curve and offset (see parameters 4 and 5 in advanced settings). This is active only when the outdoor °F sensor is wired to T terminals on control panel .
In our example, at 30°F outside the building we want to have 115°F for the heating (see the diagram on page 14), so we get exactly the heating curve defined as 4. If the intersection point of selected temperatures is not placed on the curve, we choose the closest.
Advan ced Setti n g s For advanced settings switch the control panel to stand-by mode. First press and hold power button for 3 seconds and release. Then press and hold the button, and immediately press the power button To select parameter press: , or buttons to enable you to change the values.
Tro ub lesh o o t in g Do not attempt to service this boiler unless you have been trained in all aspects of its functionality and methods to repair. Failure to service properly may lead to further damage to components. Symptom Reason Action...
