WARNINGS for the HOMEOWNER

FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS and warnings printed in this manual and posted on the boiler.

INSPECT THE BOILER ANNUALLY. To keep your boiler safe and efficient, have a service technician follow the Service checklist near the end of this manual.

IF YOU ARE NOT QUALIFIED to install or service boilers, do not install or service this one.

THE BOILER MAY LEAK WATER at the end of its useful life. Be sure to protect walls, carpets, and valuables from water that could leak from the boiler.

PROTECT YOUR HOME IN FREEZING WEATHER. A power outage, safety lockout, or component failure will prevent your boiler from lighting. In winter, your pipes may freeze and cause extensive property damage. If you must leave your home unattended for an extended time when

outdoor temperatures are below 32°F, first turn off your home’s main water supply and drain the water from all pipes.

DO NOT BLOCK AIR FLOW into or around the boiler. Insufficient air may cause the boiler to produce carbon monoxide or start a fire.

KEEP FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS AWAY from the boiler, including paint, solvents, and gasoline. The boiler may ignite the vapors from the liquids causing explosion or fire.

KEEP CHILDREN AND PETS away from hot surfaces of the boiler, boiler piping, and vent pipe.

CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) is an odorless, deadly gas that may be introduced into your home by any malfunctioning fuel-burning product or vent system failure. Consider installing CO alarms near bedrooms in all levels of the building to warn you and your family of potential CO exposure.

WARNINGS for the INSTALLER

READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL before attempting installation, start-up, or service. Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, or maintenance may cause serious property damage, personal injury, or death.

DO NOT DISCONNECT PIPE FITTINGS on the boiler or in the heating system without first verifying that the system is cool and free of pressure and that your clothing will protect you from a release of hot water or steam. Do not rely solely on the boiler’s temperature and pressure gage when making this judgment.

USE PROPER PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT when servicing or working near the boiler. Materials of construction, flue products, and fuel contain alumina, silica, heavy metals, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and/or other toxic or harmful substances that can are hazardous to health and life and that are known to the State of

California to cause cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive harm.

INSTALL ALL GUARDS, cover plates, and enclosures before operating the boiler.

SIZE THE BOILER PROPERLY relative to the design heat load or, if using domestic hot water priority, the peak hot water load, whichever

is larger. A grossly oversized boiler will cycle excessively and this will lead to premature failure of the boiler and its components. Our warranty does not apply to damage from excessive cycling.

ADHERE TO ALL LOCAL CODE REQUIREMENTS. Contact your local code inspector prior to installation. In the absence of a local code, adhere to the National Fuel Gas

Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or CAN/CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.

ALL WIRING must comply with the National

Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 (in the USA) or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 (in Canada) and any local regulations.

2.Meet the minimum clearances to combustible construction per the Specification Section of this manual.

3.Allow 24" service clearance in front and on the left side of the boiler.

4.Level the boiler, using shims as necessary.

3. Provide Combustion Air

INSUFFICIENT COMBUSTION AIR

SUPPLY may result in the production and release of deadly carbon monoxide (CO) into the home which can cause severe personal injury or death.

Like all fuel-burning appliances, boilers need air to operate reliably and safely.

Provide combustion air using the instructions in

Appendix A—Combustion Air.

4. Connect Venting

IMPROPER VENTING may result in property damage and the release of flue

gases which contain deadly carbon monoxide (CO) into the home, which can cause severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.

The vent system shall be designed and constructed in accordance with NFPA 54 and applicable local codes to develop a positive flow adequate to convey flue or vent gases to the outdoors, while ensuring that flue gases do not cool prematurely.

Observe all general venting guidelines provided in

Appendix B—Venting. Additionally:

1.This appliance shall be vented into a listed gas vent, masonry, metal, or factorybuilt chimney as required by NFPA 54 and applicable local codes for Category I appliances. If venting this appliance into a masonry chimney, the chimney must be lined with a listed chimney lining system

(i.e. Type B gas vent or flexible metal) as required by NFPA 54 and applicable local codes. Clay flue lined masonry chimneys do not meet the venting requirements for this appliance.

2.Attach the vent damper with three sheetmetal screws around the perimeter of the flue collar (Figure 4-a), oriented so that the position indicator is visible. The vent damper may also be mounted anywhere between the flue outlet and the chimney within reach of the electrical harness.

3.Vent connector shall be double-wall insulated gas vent as supplied with this boiler or Type B (double-wall) gas vent only. Using sheetmetal screws, attach the vent connector between the vent damper and the vertical chimney (Figure 4-b). Do not exceed the maximum vent connector length in Table 4.1.

More Information about Adjustable Parameters

1.High Limit (HL_)

The IQ Control is factory programmed

with a High Limit Setpoint of 180°F. The boiler turns "off" when the supply water temperature is above this value. The High Limit setpoint is adjustable between 130° and 220°F. The Operating Setpoint (SP) will equal the High Limit Setpoint unless an IQ

Outdoor Reset IQ Option Card is installed.

The Outdoor Reset IQ Option Card reduces the Operating Setpoint to regulate heat delivery, increase home comfort and

save energy. Refer to the Appendix H for additional information.

2.Differential (df_)

The IQ Boiler Control is factory programmed with a Differential of 15°F. The Differential is the number of degrees the supply temperature must decrease below the Operating Setpoint before the boiler can restart. The differential is adjustable between 10° through 30°F.

3.Pump Overrun Time (OR_)

The IQ Boiler Control is factory programmed with a Pump Overrun Time of 0 minutes. Pump Overrun Time (also called “off delay” or “post purge”) continues pump operation after a call for heat has ended, sending excess heat from the boiler into the priority zone. Ensure system piping and zone panel settings allow water flow to the priority zone after the call for heat ends. The Pump Overrun Time is adjustable between 0 through 10 minutes.

Using the IQ Option Panel

IQ Option Cards are available from Burnham distributors and are the simplest way to add functionality, safety and efficiency to your heating system. The IQ Option Panel provides an easy and convenient means to "plug-in" an Auxiliary High Limit, Low Water Cut-off and/or Outdoor Reset function.

For installation, programming, and troubleshooting instructions, refer to the instructions supplied with those cards.

14

8. Program the Controls (continued)

Using the Optional LCD Display Kit

The LCD Display is an easy to use touch screen type display that allows a technician to monitor and adjust the IQ Boiler Control and connected IQ Option Cards. All boiler settings, status and error codes are displayed in full text. All Outdoor Reset IQ Option Card parameters are adjustable

with graphic and help information screens. The LCD Display Kit includes a mounting bracket and wiring harness to allow mounting in the ES2 plastic hood above the front door. For installation, programming, and troubleshooting instructions, refer to the instructions supplied with the display.
