Boiler Assembly and Placement
2A. Field Assembly
These boilers are available in two congurations; the
JVH has a hot surface ignition pilot and integral draft
fan, and the JVS has an electronic intermittent ignition
device (I.I.D.). Look for the model designation on the
rating plate, which can be found on top of the boiler in
the right rear corner.
The Bradford White automatic vent dampers are
standard on all JVS models. The Bradford White
side wall power venters can be used on JVS models.
Special instructions for their installation are included
in the vent damper and power venter package. Read
them carefully before installation.
Brute Mini JV
Vent Damper (JVS only):
1. Brute Mini JVS boilers have built-in draft
diverter for natural draft operation.
2. Find the vent damper box which is located in the
boiler package.
3. Install the vent damper directly to the top of the
draft diverter outlet with the damper operator
facing to the front of the boiler, and with the ow
direction arrow pointing upward. Use the vent
damper wire harness provided with the boiler
to connect the vent damper to the boiler. The
bracket end of the harness should be connected to
the vent damper actuator.
4. For Model JVS only: Install the metal plug
provided with the vent damper onto the damper
plate hole.
5. Do not modify the automatic vent damper device.
It is very important that no other vents are closed.
Provide at least six inches clearance between
the automatic vent damper and combustible
construction, and be sure to allow access for
servicing the damper.
Temperature/Pressure Gauge: Install the temp/
pressure gauge provided in the parts box.

2C. Flooring
JVS model boilers can only be installed on
noncombustible ooring.
JVH model boilers are designed and certied for
installation on a combustible oor.
All boilers must be installed on a level oor and
must NEVER be installed on carpeting.
NEVER store objects on or around the boiler.
Noncombustible ooring is dened as ooring
material and surface nish not capable of being
ignited and burning and with no combustible materials
against the underside. Acceptable materials are those
consisting entirely of a combination of steel, iron,
brick, tile, concrete, slate, glass or plaster.
The JVS model boilers can be installed on a
combustible oor if a noncombustible base
assembly, available from Bradford White, is used.
See the JVS Parts List at the back of this manual for
the appropriate Noncombustible Base Kit part number.
2B. Boiler Placement
1. The boiler must be placed to provide clearances
on all sides for maintenance and inspection. There
must also be minimum distances maintained from
combustible surfaces. Avoid locations which can
be damaged by water or moisture.
2. A minimum of 15" (381mm) access must be
available in front of the boiler for burner tray
removal. Consult local codes for clearances to hot
water pipes and accessories.
3. If the boiler is to be installed in a garage, all
burners and burner ignition devices must have
a minimum 18" (457mm) clearance
above the oor.
4. Boilers can be installed in a closet as long as
the minimum clearances shown in Table 2 are
observed. Special attention should be paid to
clearances between the front of the boiler and the
closet door when it is closed (see Figure 2).
WARNING
This boiler is intended for indoor installation only.
Do not install this boiler in a location subject to
negative pressure, or improper operation will occur.

SECTION 3.
Air and Venting
3A. Combustion Air Supply
The boiler location must provide sufcient air
supply for proper combustion, and ventilation of
the surrounding area as outlined in the latest edition
of U.S. ANSI standard Z223.1 or in Canada, CAN/
CGA-B149.1 or .2, and any local codes that may be
applicable.
In general, these requirements specify that the
boiler rooms which represent conned spaces should
be provided with two permanent air supply openings;
one within 12 inches (305mm) of the ceiling, the other
within 12 inches (305mm) of the oor.
Page 9
NOTE: In Canada, follow Canadian Standard,
CAN/CGA-B149 or local codes.
Outside Air Supply: When combustion air is
supplied directly through an outside wall, each
opening should have a minimum free area of one
square inch per 4,000 BTU/h (6 sq. cm per 1.2 kW)
input of the total input rating of all appliances in the
enclosed area.
Inside Air Supply: When combustion is supplied
from inside the building, each opening should have
a minimum free area of one square inch per 1,000
BTU/h (6 sq. cm per 0.3 kW) input of the total input
rating of all appliances in the enclosed area. These
openings should never be less than 100 square inches
(645 sq. cm).
CHIMNEY
Table 3. Minimum Recommended
Air Supply to Boiler Room
Exhaust Fans or Vents: Any equipment which
exhausts air from the boiler room can deplete the
combustion air supply or reverse the natural draft
action of venting system. This could cause ue
products to accumulate in the boiler room. Additional
air must be supplied to compensate for such exhaust.
The information in Table 3 is not applicable in
installations where exhaust fans or blowers of any
type are used. Such installations must be designed by
qualied engineers.
If a blower or fan is used to supply air to the boiler
room, the installer should make sure it does not create
drafts which could cause nuisance shutdowns. If a
blower is necessary to provide adequate combustion
air to the boiler, a suitable switch or equivalent must
be wired into the boiler control circuit to prevent the
boiler from ring unless the blower is operating.
The boiler must be completely isolated and
protected from any source of corrosive chemical
fumes such as those emitted by trichloroethylene,
perchloroethylene, chlorine, etc.

Part Number D2004300 (4”) or D2000401 (6”), must
be used when the boiler is vented through a side wall.
It provides a means of installing vent pipe through
the building wall, and must be located in accordance
with ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or in Canada CAN/
CGA-B149 and local applicable codes,
(see Figure 6 ).
Locate the vent terminal so that it cannot be
blocked by snow. Most codes requires termination of
at least 12” (305mm) above grade, but the installer
must follow local codes.
3E. Common Venting System
WARNING
Operation of appliances with a blocked common
vent may lead to serious injury or death. Safety
devices must be implemented to prevent blocked
common vent operation. If safe operation of all
appliances connected to a common vent cannot
be assured, including prevention of spillage of ue
gasses into living spaces, common venting should
not be applied, and appliances should each be
vented separately.
AVERTISSEMENT
Le fonctionnement des appareils avec un
système d’évacuation bloqué peut provoquer des
blessures graves, voire la mort. Des dispositifs
de sécurité doivent être installés pour éviter
le blocage des systèmes d’évacuation. Si le
fonctionnement de tous les appareils connectés
à un système d’évacuation commun ne peut
pas être assuré, y compris la prévention de la
dispersion des gaz toxiques dans les espaces
habités, on ne devrait pas installer un système
d’évacuation commun et chaque appareil devrait
être ventilé séparément.
3. Insofar as it is practical, close all building doors
and windows and all doors between the space in
which the appliances remaining connected to the
common venting system are located and other
spaces of the building. Turn on clothes dryers
and any gas burning appliance not connected
to the common venting system. Turn bathroom
exhausts, so they will operate at maximum speed.
Do not operate a summer exhaust fan. Close
replace dampers.
4. Place in operation the appliance being
inspected. Follow the lighting instructions.
Adjust thermostat so appliance will operate
continuously.
5. Test for spillage at the burner opening after ve
minutes of main burner operation.
6. After it has been determined that each appliance
remaining connected to the common venting
system properly vents when tested as outlined
above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans,
replace dampers and any other gas burning
appliance to their previous conditions of use.
7. Any improper operation of the common venting
system should be corrected so the installation
conforms with the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1. When re-sizing any portion
of the common venting system, the common
venting system should be re-sized to approach
the minimum size as determined using the
appropriate tables in Appendix G in the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.
SECTION 4.
Gas Connections
4A Gas Supply and Piping
When an existing boiler is removed from a common
venting system, the common venting system is likely
to be too large for proper venting of the appliances
remaining connected to it.
At the time of removal of an existing boiler, the
following steps shall be followed with each appliance
remaining connected to the common venting system
placed in operation, while the other appliances
remaining connected to the common venting system
are not in operation.
1. Seal any unused openings in the common venting
system.
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper
size and horizontal pitch and determine there is
no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion or
other deciencies which could cause an unsafe
condition.
WARNING
The Brute Mini JVS and JVH boilers are
designed for use with either natural gas or LP
gas. Check the rating plate to be sure that the
boiler is designed to use the type of gas being
supplied. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CONVERT
THIS HEATER FOR USE WITH ANY OTHER
TYPE OF FUEL.

1. Gas piping installation must be in accordance
with the latest edition of ANSI Z223.1 and all
local codes. In Canada, the installation must be in
accordance with CSA-B149.1 and all local codes
that apply.
2. Check the gas supply to be sure that it is the
same as the gas indicated on the boiler’s plate.
Brute Mini JVS and JVH boilers, as shipped
from the factory, are certied to operate within
the altitude range indicated on the rating plate.
If a eld conversion to a different altitude range
or different gas should be necessary, conversion
parts are available. Contact a Bradford White
representative or the factory for the correct part
numbers to order for conversions
Caution
Permanent damage to the gas valve will occur
if the following procedures are not followed.

3. Use the gures in Table 6 to size the gas inlet
piping from the gas meter to the heater. Check all
local codes for compliance before installing the
heater.

4. A sediment trap (drip leg) must be installed
ahead of the gas controls (see Figure 8). Fit the
trap with a threaded cap which can be removed
for cleaning.
5. Install a manual gas shutoff valve for service and
safety. Do not use a restrictive gas cock. Flexible
gas connectors, if used, must be CSA rated for
the total input rating of the boiler.
6. Disconnect the boiler and its individual shutoff
valve from the gas supply system during pressure
testing of the system at pressures higher than 1/2
pounds per square inch (psi) (3.45 kilopascals
[kPa]). If the test pressure is equal to or less than
1/2 psi (3.45 kPa), close the manual shutoff valve
on the heater during the piping pressure test.
7. If the gas supply pressure is less than required,
check for undersized pipe between the meter and
the boiler, a restrictive tting, or an undersized
gas meter. Gas supply pressures to the heater are
listed in Table 5.
NOTE: The maximum inlet gas pressure must not
exceed the specied value. The minimum value listed is
for the purpose of input adjustment. Refer to Table 5.
NOTE: The boiler and all other gas appliances
sharing the boiler gas supply line must be ring
at maximum capacity to properly measure the
inlet supply pressure. Low gas pressure could be
an indication of an undersize gas meter and/or
obstructed gas supply line.
8. The correct high re burner manifold gas
pressure is stamped on the rating plate. The
regulator is pre-set at the factory, and normally
requires no further adjustment. For two-stage
units (JVS 100-225) be sure unit is able to re at
both high and low re.
9. Before operating the boiler, the complete gas
supply system and all connections must be tested
for leaks using a leak detector solution. Do not
use an open ame.
Caution
Some leak test solutions (including soap and
water) may cause corrosion or stress cracking.
Rinse the piping with water after testing.
Attention
Certaines solultions d’essai d’étanchéité (y
compris l’eau et le savon) peuvent causer de

tuyaux à l’eau apprès l’essai d’étanchéité.
Page 15
4B Special Precautions for LP Gas
LP Gas is heavier than air and can therefore more
readily collect or “pool” in enclosed areas if provision
for proper ventilation is not made. Be sure to pay
special attention to proper ventilation for LP gas.
Locate boilers a safe distance from LP gas cylinders
and lling equipment. In the United States, consult
the “National Fuel Gas Code” (NFPA 54 / ANSI
Z223.1, latest edition) or in Canada, the Propane
Installation Code (CSA-B149.1), any local codes and
re protection authorities about specic installation
restrictions in your area.
SECTION 5.
Water Connections
5A. Water Piping
Figure 10. shows ‘typical’ plumbing installations. Be
sure to provide unions and isolation valves at the
boiler inlet and outlet so it can be isolated for service.
Check local codes for specic plumbing requirements
before beginning the installation.
An ASME pressure relief valve is supplied on
all JV boilers, and is pre-set at 30 PSI. The valve
outlet piping must discharge to a drain. Under no
circumstances should the relief valve piping be a
closed circuit.
A pressure reducing valve (automatic feed) must be
used to maintain the system at constant proper pressure
(see Figure 10). Supply properly installed purge
valves to eliminate air from each circuit.
A drain valve is supplied with the boiler, and can be
found in the plastic bag shipped with each boiler. This
valve is to be installed on the lower right side of the
boiler and is used for draining the unit. To drain the
boiler completely, open the drain valve and remove
the two drain plugs located on the lower left side of
the boiler.
Be sure to include air vent devices located at the
highest point in the system to eliminate trapped air,
and an air elimination device near the outlet side of the
JV boiler. Manual vent valves are recommended.
Hot water piping should be supported by suitable
hangers or oor stands, NOT by the boiler. Due
to expansion and contraction of copper pipe,
consideration should be given to the type of hangers
used. Rigid hangers could transmit noise through the
system caused by the piping sliding in the hangers.
It is recommended that padding be used when rigid
hangers are installed.
Gas piping should also be supported by suitable
hangers or oor stands, not the boiler.
A properly sized expansion tank must be included in
the system.

Table 7. Temperature Rise °F °C.
Page 17
5B By-pass Piping
The following information and suggestions are made
on by-pass piping as it affects the temperature rise
at the boiler. A boiler temperature rise must be taken
on all JV boiler installations. If the temperature rise
exceeds 30°F (17°C) at full rate, it is an indication that
the boiler is not receiving adequate water ow. Check
the pump for any obstruction, replace the pump with a
larger size where necessary, or install a system by-pass
as indicated in Figures 10 and 11.
A full sized, 1¼" bypass with balancing valves is
strongly recommended for all systems, and required
when: 1) the boiler is installed without primarysecondary piping in a multiple zone system; 2) when
the return water temperature can be expected to be
lower than 120°F (44°C); or 3) whenever the system
piping on the outlet side of the boiler may allow
reduced ow through the heat exchanger, causing
excessive temperature rise (see Section 5.2).
Note: Bradford White strongly recommends a primary/
secondary piping system for all installations, especially
sizes 125, 160 and 225. In this system, a circulator is
dedicated to pumping the boiler only. This circulator
should be sized for the boiler head loss and ow rate.
5C Adjusting the bypass:
Refer to Figure 11. Provide a means of measuring
temperature on the inlet pipe to the boiler such as
using a strap on or infrared thermometer. Starting
with both balancing valves fully open, start the boiler.
Adjust the balancing valve on the return to the system
slowly to provide 120°F (44°C) water at the inlet to
the boiler, leaving the bypass balancing valve fully
open. As the system warms up, this valve may need
to be adjusted open. In rare cases, this valve will have
to be kept fully open, and the bypass balancing valve
adjusted toward closed to prevent heated bypass water
from satisfying the call for heat when the system is up
to temperature.
5D Alternate Auto-Bypass Operation
Use of the Bradford White thermostatic union, p/n
2400-030, can provide automatic bypass operation in
primary - secondary piped systems (but cannot be used
when primary - secondary piping is not used). The
thermostatic union is installed on the outlet piping,
after the bypass assembly. It can be used in place of a
balancing valve. It opens fully at 140°F
(see Figure 11). Contact the factory for more
information.
All precautions must be taken by the installer to insure
that a maximum temperature rise through the boiler
does not exceed 30°F (17°C). The temperature rise
on boilers installed in multi-zone systems using zone
valves must be taken when the zone of the longest
length and/or the zone of the highest head loss is open.
A full size, 1¼" diameter by-pass with
balancing valve must be installed if a return water
temperature below 120°F (44°C) is expected under
operating conditions regardless of boiler size. This
may be expected in many systems, including inoor radiant and snow melt systems.

5E Flow Requirements
All high recovery, low volume water boilers must have
adequate ow for efcient operation. Pump selection
is critical to this goal, and pumps should be selected
to provide for system design water temperature rise.
Table 7 details temperature rise and water ow (GPM)
for the Brute Mini boilers.
Damage from improper ow is not warranteed.
Failure to insure proper water ow through the
heat exchanger of the boiler will void the Bradford
White warranty. Flow can be veried by measuring
the difference in water temperatures between the
boiler inlet and outlet. For example: For a JV-100
installation, the inlet water temperature is 160°F
(71°C), and the outlet temperature is 180°F (82°C) at
Normal Input Rate from the rating plate. That means
there is a 20° (11°C) temperature rise through the
boiler. According to
Table 7, that would indicate a ow rate of 8 GPM
(0.5L/S). Temperature rise must be measured with the
longest (highest head) zone calling for heat alone.
Other factors to be considered before selecting a
pump are pipe size, the number of ttings throughout
the system, smoothness of the interior surface of the
pipe, the quantity of water owing through the pipe,
whether a glycol solution is being used, and the total
length of piping in the system. Table 8 provides
example pump selection criteria using Type L copper
5F Chilled Water Systems
If the boiler is installed in conjunction with
refrigeration systems, it shall be installed so that the
chilled medium is piped in parallel with the heating
boiler with appropriate valves to prevent the chilled
medium from entering the heating boiler.
When boiler piping is connected to heating
coils, which are in close proximity to refrigerated air
circulation, there must be ow control valves or other
automatic methods to prevent gravity circulation of the
boiler water during the cooling cycle.
5G Oxygen Permeable Systems
The JV boiler must not be direct connected to a
heating system utilizing oxygen permeable tubing.
Provide a water-to-water heat exchanger between
systems to prevent corrosion of ferrous metals such
as the boiler’s piping wet walls, etc. Air elimination
devices are not sufcient protection, and corrosion
damage is not covered under the limited warranty.
5H Anti-Freeze
Non-toxic HVAC anti-freeze may be added to the
hydronic system provided the concentration does
not exceed 50%, and the anti-freeze contains an anti
foamant and rust inhibitor. Follow the anti-freeze
manufacturer’s recommendations for yearly or
biannual replacement of system anti-freeze. Never use
automotive anti-freeze in a boiler system.

suitable for pumps of 1/3 HP or less (max 5A).
6. For systems with multiple zone pumps or valves
(see Figure 17).
WARNING
The boiler must be electrically grounded in
accordance with the requirements of the authority
having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such
requirements, with the latest edition of the national
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, in the U.S. and with
the latest edition of CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical
Code, Part 1, in Canada. Do not rely on the gas or
water piping to ground the metal parts of the boiler.
Plastic pipe or dielectric unions may isolate the boiler
electrically. Service and maintenance personnel who
work on or around the boiler may be standing on wet
oors and could be electrocuted by an ungrounded
boiler.

7A Filling the System
Page 25
It is crucial to the efcient operation of the system
that all air be removed from the circuit. For this
reason, an air scoop and vent should be located close
to the boiler outlet, and there should be a minimum
distance between cold water feed and system purge
valve.
1. When the system has been completely installed,
close all air vents and open the makeup water
valve. Allow the circuit to ll slowly.
2. If a make-up water pump is employed, adjust the
pressure to provide a minimum of 12 psi (83kPa)
at the highest point in the circuit. If a pressure
regulator is also installed in the line, adjust it to
the same pressure.
3. Close all valves. Purge one circuit at a time as
follows:
a. Open one circuit drain valve and let water
drain out for at least 5 minutes. Be certain
there are no air bubbles visible in the water
stream before closing the drain valve.
b. Repeat this procedure for each circuit.
4. Open all valves after all circuits have been
purged.
5. Run the system circulating pump for a minimum
of 30 minutes with the boiler shut off.
6. Open all strainers in the system, and check for
debris.
7. Recheck all air vents as described in Step 3.
8. Inspect the liquid level in the expansion tank,
with the system full of water, and under normal
operating pressure, to ensure proper water level
in the expansion tank.
9. Start up boiler according to the procedures
described in Section 2 and operate the system,
including the pump, boiler, and radiation units,
for one hour.
10. Recheck the water level in the expansion tank. If
it exceeds 1/2 of the volume of the tank, open the
tank drain and reduce the water level.
11. Shut down the entire system, and vent all
radiation units and high points in the system.
12. Close the water makeup valve and check the
strainer in the pressure reducing valve for
sediment or debris. Reopen the water makeup
valve.
13. Verify system pressure with the boiler pressure
gauge before beginning regular operation.
14. Within 3 days of start-up, recheck and bleed
all air vents and the expansion tank using these
instructions.

SECTION 8.
Operating Procedures
Before placing the boiler in operation, check and
reset the safety shutoff devices. Once the boiler is
connected to the gas and water piping and after all the
requirements in previous pages have been met, follow
these procedures:
Bradford White Corp
8A. System Start-up
1. Verify that the pump system is operating
properly:
a. Shut off the manual gas valve located
outside the boiler.
b. Raise the wall thermostat high enough to
call for heat.
c. The pump should come on immediately. If
it does not, test the electrical circuits.
2. Pilot and Main Burner Lighting:
a. The JV boiler does not require manual
lighting. The pilot is controlled by the
automatic ignition system.
b. Different models of the JV boiler utilize
various gas valves. Although the gas valves
may have different control knobs, they are
all similar in operation.
c. Understand and follow the operating
instructions that are applicable to the type
of ignition system installed on the boiler.
3. The pilot and main burners will automatically
ignite when there is a call for heat.
8B. Sequence of Operation
1. Wall thermostat will call for heat.
2. Pump relay will turn on the circulating pump.
3. If water temperature is below the limit setting,
the inducer motor relay will turn on the draft
inducer (JVH).
4. Pressure switch will sense the fan (JVH only)
operation and send 24 volts to the ame rollout
switch.
5. In normal conditions, the ame rollout switch
will be in a closed position. 24 volts will be sent
to the gas valve/controller, the igniter will
glow/spark and the pilot valve will open, lighting
the pilot.
6. After pilot is proven to be lit, the main gas valve
will open, the main burners will ignite and
continue until either the primary control, hi-limit
or wall thermostat opens.
7. When the wall thermostat is satised, the burners
will shut off. The relays will turn off the draft
inducer (JVH only) and the circulating pump.
When the room temperature falls below the wall
thermostat setting, the cycle will repeat.

8.E Operating Temperature Controls
Note: The Temperature Controllers, the Dip switch
panel, and the LED panel can be found under the
Control Access Panel after removing the bolts.
Two temperature controls are now standard on all
JVS and JVH boilers.
1. The primary temperature controller maintains
all normal heating operations.
2. A secondary, mechanical high-limit aquastat
provides safe shutdown, should the primary
controller fail.
Important: If the secondary controller (See Figure
18A and Figure 18B) dial is set below 220F, it may
inhibit proper operation of the primary controller.
Prior to calling for technical support, please ensure
high limit control is set for at least 220F).

Pump Operation. When a call for HEAT and/
or DHW is present the boiler pump will turn on. Post
purge can be selected via dip switch #5, Pump Post
Purge Inactive (Off) /Active 3 min. (On). In the On
position the pump will continue to run for 3 min after
the last call has been satised. When the dip switch is
Off there is no post purge of the pump, the pump turns
off immediately after the last call is removed. Bradford
White strongly recommends using a pump post purge.
During WWSD and a call for HEAT is present the
pump will remain off.
Pump Exercising The control exercises the
boiler pump every 3 days of inactivity. While the
control is exercising the pump all LEDs will turn off
and the power LED will ash for 10 seconds.
Staging (where applicable – factory setting):
Dip #1 is used to select the number of stages: 2-Stage
(Off) / Single Stage (On).
Note: Use of 2-Stage operation may reduce
efciency.
For 2-stage operation, the rst stage is cycled on
Proportional error and the second stage is cycled
based on PI according to a xed algorithm. No user
adjustment is necessary.
Note: All stages are turned off when the water
outlet temperature reaches the Maximum setting that
is elected via dip switch #4, Boiler Maximum 210°F
(Off) / 190°F (On).
Auto Boiler Target Setpoint: Space Heating:
The boiler target temperature is automatically
determined from Space Heating and DHW
requirements. Space heating is based on outdoor reset.
When both a Heat Call and a DHW Call are present
at the same time, the control operates to provide the
higher boiler target temperature.
Heating Curve (Outdoor Temperature Reset)
The control uses a linear heating curve to calculate
a target setpoint. The following data are used
to calculate the target setpoint from the outdoor
temperature.
1. The heating curve or reset ratio (RR) is set by the
potentiometer with a range of 0.4 to 3.6.
2. The room temperature is xed at 70 deg F.

DHW Operation The boiler target for DHW calls
is xed at 180 deg F.
Note: There is no control of a DHW pump, so the
boiler pump runs with the call for DHW.
Limiting The boiler target is limited to a
minimum and a maximum target to ensure that the
water temperature does not exceed the limits.
1. Target Min - The boiler target minimum is
the point at which the stages will start to turn on to
maintain a minimum water temperature. The Boiler
Minimum water temperature is 130 deg F, regardless
of other calculated targets. To ensure that the water
temperature is greater than the Boiler Minimum water
temperature the target is increased to allow the stages
to cycle on by the Boiler Minimum water temperature,
Boiler Minimum target is set to Boiler Minimum +
differential/2.
2. Target Max - The boiler target maximum is
the point at which the stages will start to turn off to
maintain a maximum water temperature. The Boiler
Maximum water temperature is set by setting dip
switch #4: Boiler Maximum 210°F (Off) / 190°F
(On).
To ensure that the water temperature is less than the
Boiler Maximum water temperature the target is
decreased to allow the stages to cycle off by the Boiler
Maximum water temperature, Boiler Maximum target
is set to Boiler Maximum - differential/2.
Auto Differential The control automatically
adjusts differential to prevent short cycling and
maximize the lifetime of components.
WWSD Operation Warm Weather Shutdown -
WWSD feature is selected via dip switch #3, WWSD
Inactive (Off) / Active 70°F (On). WWSD point is
xed at 70 deg F. Control exits WWSD when the
outdoor temp falls to 65 F. When there is a call for
HEAT and the control is in WWSD the HEAT call will
be ignored. When there is a call for DHW and the
control is in WWSD the DHW call will be satised.
WWSD LED turns on when control detects WWSD.
Summary of Dip Switch Settings:
#1 Two Stage (Off) / Single Stage (On)
(Note: Efciency may be reduced with 2-stage
is required for residential operation)
#3 WWSD Inactive (Off) / Active 70°F (On)

Summary of Input Sensors:
1. Outdoor sensor - monitors the outside air
temperature for outdoor reset mode
2. Boiler outlet sensor -monitors the water
temperature of the boiler outlet supply
3. System Supply sensor - monitors the water
temperature of the system supply
The boiler outlet sensor is required at all times. If
the boiler outlet sensor has any fault then the control
will ash an error and turns all stages off. The
system supply sensor is optional and utilizes primary
/ secondary piping. If the system supply sensor has
a fault then the control ashes an error message and
operates using the boiler outlet sensor (system supply
= boiler outlet).

SECTION 9.
9A. Maintenance
1. Lubricate the water circulating pump per the
instructions on the pump.
2. If a strainer is employed in a pressure reducing
valve or the piping, clean it every six months.
3. At start-up, and periodically thereafter, the burner
and pilot ames should be observed. If the ame
has the appearance of “sooting” tips, check
for debris near the orices and call the service
technician.
4. Ensure proper operation of the mechanical
damper, mounted in the ue collar, by observing
the damper handle. Be sure the handle swings
when the draft inducer starts (depending on
the boiler size, swing may be as little as 30°).
Remove any obstructions and clean around the
pivot rod (handle) holes.
5. Inspect the venting system for obstruction,
leakage or corrosion at least once a year.
6. Keep the boiler area clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline, and other
ammable vapors and liquids.
7. Be sure that all combustion air and ventilation
openings are unobstructed.
8. Upon completion of the installation, inspect
the external surfaces of the heat exchanger for
fouling based on the following schedule:
24 hours - 7 days - 30 days - 90 days
Once every six months thereafter.
9. If the boiler is not going to be used for long
periods of time in locations where freezing
occurs, it should be completely drained of
all water. To accomplish this, there is a drain
valve on the right side of the boiler which can
be opened. This will drain the right side of the
boiler. There are two plugs located on the left
side of the heater which must be removed to
drain that side. Both sides must be drained.
10. The gas and electric controls on the boiler
are engineered for long life and dependable
operation, but the safety of the equipment
depends on their proper functioning. It is strongly
recommended that the basic items listed below be
inspected by a qualied service technician every
year.
a. Water temperature controls.
b. Pilot safety system.
c. Automatic gas valves.
d. Fan proving switch.
e. Inducer/Blower assembly.
f. Mechanical ue damper operation.
WARNING
The Warranty does not cover damage caused by
lack of required maintenance, lack of water ow,
or improper operating practices.
AVERTISSEMENT
La garantie ne couvre pas les dommages causés
par l'absence d'entretien, absence de débit d'eau,
ou pratiques de fonctionnement irrégulières
Fouling on the external surfaces of the heat exchanger
is caused by incomplete combustion, and is a sign
of venting and/or combustion air problems. The heat
exchanger can be inspected by using a ashlight
and placing a mirror under the burners. An alternate
method is to remove the venting and top panel to
inspect the exchanger from above. The vent system
should be inspected at the same time. If cleaning is
required:
a. Shut off all power to the boiler.
b. Remove the venting top, ue collector,
draft inducer assembly, and heat exchanger
bafes.
c. Remove the burner tray.
d. Use a hand-operated spray bottle lled with
water, and a wire brush to clean soot and
loose scale from the underside of the heat
exchanger. DO NOT USE COMPRESSED
AIR, HIGH PRESSURE WATER, OR A
GARDEN HOSE.
e. Clean any fallen debris from the bottom of
the unit.
f. Check to make sure the burner ports and
pilot assembly are free of debris before
returning the burner tray to its original
position.
g. Reassemble the boiler in reverse order,
making sure to replace the heat exchanger
bafes.
Page 32
Bradford White Corp
9B. Electrical Troubleshooting
1. Remove the control box cover on the front of the
boiler.
2. Verify that 115 volts is reaching the boiler by
testing across the black wire and the white wire
on the transformer.
3. Verify 24 volts transformer output by placing
the meter leads on the yellow and red wires. If
24 volts is not evident, replace the transformer.
Perform the following series of tests with one
meter lead attached to the yellow wire on the
transformer.
4. Place the second lead on the “HEAT” connection
on the terminal board. Turn the wall thermostat
high enough to call for heat. If the meter fails to
register 24 volts, the thermostat or its circuit may
be defective.
5. Place the second lead on the purple wire terminal
on the hi-limit switch. If no voltage across the
switch, check for defective hi-limit, open circuit
due to excessive water temperature, or a low
temperature setting.
6. For JVH only, place the second lead on the
blue wire terminal on the fan proving switch. If
voltage is present, skip to step 8. If voltage isn’t
present, connections or the draft inducer/motor
could be defective.
Caution
Label all wires prior to disconnection when
servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause
improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper
operation after servicing.
