panel and smell the interior of the boiler
enclosure. Do not proceed with startup
if there is any indication of a gas leak.
Use an approved leak detection solution.
Repair any leaks at once.
DO NOT adjust or attempt to measure
WARNING
gas valve outlet pressure. The gas valve is
factory set for the correct outlet pressure.
This setting is suitable for natural gas and
propane, requiring no field adjustment.
Attempting to alter or measure the gas
valve outlet pressure could result in
damage to the valve, causing potential
severe
substantial property damage.

supplier mixes an odorant with the propane
to make its presence detectable. In some
instances, the odorant can fade, and the
gas may no longer have an odor. Before
startup (and periodically thereafter), have
the propane supplier verify the correct
odorant level in the gas.
Check thermostat circuit(s)
1. Disconnect the two external wires connected to the
enable terminals on the connection board.
2. Connect a voltmeter across these two incoming wires.
Close each thermostat, zone valve, and relay in the
external circuit one at a time and check the voltmeter
reading across the incoming wires.
3. There should NEVER be a voltage reading.
or
4. If a voltage does occur under any condition, check and
correct the external wiring. (This is a common problem
when using 3-wire zone valves.)
5. Once the external boiler enable wiring is checked and
corrected if necessary, reconnect the external thermostat
circuit wires to the connection board. Allow the boiler to
cycle.
Inspect condensate system
Inspect/check condensate lines and fittings
1. Inspect the condensate drain line, condensate PVC
fittings and condensate trap.
