When existing boiler is removed from common venting
system, common venting system is likely to be too large for
proper venting of appliances remaining connected to it.
After removal of existing boiler, following steps shall
be followed with each appliance remaining connected to
common venting system placed in operation, while other
appliances remaining connected to common venting system
are not in operation:
• Seal any unused openings in common venting system.
• Any improper operation of common venting system
should be corrected so installation conforms with National
Fuel Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or Natural Gas
and Propane Installation Code, CAN/CSA B149.1.
When re-sizing any portion of common venting system,
common venting system should be re-sized to approach
minimum size as determined using appropriate tables in

11.1 Beginning of Each Heating Season
• Check boiler area is free from combustible materials,
gasoline, and other ammable vapors and liquids.
• Visually inspect combustion air and vent piping for
proper operation. Check for and remove any obstruction
to ow of combustion air or vent gases. Immediately
repair or replace pipe showing deterioration or leakage.
Reassemble per instructions in section 6. Ensure proper
reassembly and resealing of system.
• Visually inspect condensate drain line for proper
operation. Checking for deteriorated or plugged
condensate drain line. Verify condensate trap drains
freely.
• Test safety relief valve for proper operation. Refer to
valve manufacturer's instructions packaged with relief
valve.
• Examine ue passages in heat exchanger, burner,
condensate lines, and cleaning (if necessary) by following
instructions in “Annual Examination and Cleaning of Boiler
Components” in this section.
• Circulator pump and combustion air blower motor
furnished with boiler are permanently lubricated from
factory and require no further lubrication. Lubricate
eld sourced pumps and/or motors should be lubricated
according to pump and/or motor manufacturer’s
instruction.
Sight Glass
• Check following components are operating properly and
are free of blockages or obstructions:
• air vent;
• check venturi air inlet for blockage and clean as
required;
• check air hose is tight
• supply, return, and ue temperature sensor clips
must be securely seated on pipes; Check boiler for
any sign of leaks.
• Check low water cutoff using user interface.
• Check operation by pressing test button on low water
cutoff.
• "Low Water" LED should illuminate and burner
should shut down.
• Should get error message on User Interface
(E36).
• Every 5 years remove low water cutoff. Reinstall
after cleaning.
• Every 10 years replace low water cutoff.
• Check ame signal with user interface. Should be 8 micro
amps at 100%.
• Visual inspection of ame through sight glass. Burner
should be fully illuminated. See gure 11-1.
• Check expansion tank.

Explanation
Two pump modes are available:
1.
Pump Mode = 0 ‘CH or CH&DHW’
• In this mode either CH or DHW pump terminal is energized
depending on type of demand (CH or DHW).
• CH and DHW pumps are never energized at the same time.
• In the case of simultaneous call for both CH and DHW, the
energized pump depends on whether the boiler is currently
supplying CH or DHW demand. Refer to DHW Priority
settings below.
• This is typical of hydronic system design with separate CH
and DHW Pumps.
2.
Pump Mode = 4 ‘System Pump’
• In this mode only one external system pump is installed in
hydronic system. This pump will energize independent of
type of demand (CH or DHW).
Boiler Conguration
• Connect this pump to CH/System Pump electrical terminal
block. See page35 for diagram.
• DHW pump terminal does not function.
• This is typical of hydronic system design which utilizes zone
valves for all CH zones and DHW indirect tank.
Note:
• Pump Mode selection depends on electrical and
hydronic system design. Please refer to sections 5
and 8 for recommended hydronic piping and electrical
congurations.
• Internal heat exchanger pump is energized anytime
demand exists regardless of Pump Mode setting or type
of demand (CH or DHW).
'Service Reminder’ feature allows the installer to enable or
disable a service reminder notication on the User Interface at a
predened interval .
Service reminder does not affect operation of boiler in any way.
It is only a reminder to End User that routine preventative
maintenance is required by qualied service technician.

CH Settings
Explanation
4. Central Heating (CH) modes available:
• CH Mode = 0 ‘CH with Thermostat’
• Boiler will attempt to satisfy CH demand while CH
thermostat input is closed.
• Boiler will modulate its ring rate to maintain CH set
point and match system heat load.
• CH set point adjusted in ‘Settings’ submenu under ‘User
Menu’
• CH Mode = 1 ‘CH with Thermostat and Outdoor Reset’
• Boiler will attempt to satisfy CH demand when CH
thermostat input is closed.
• Boiler will modulate its ring rate to maintain CH set
point and match system heat load.
• CH set point calculated as function of outdoor
temperature using outdoor reset curve. See gure A-2
• CH Mode = 2 ‘CH with Full Outdoor Reset’
• CH demand is determined by outdoor temperature and
Warm Weather Shutdown temperature.
• Boiler will permanently attempt to satisfy CH
demand, when CH demand is available.
• CH thermostat input is ignored.
• CH set point calculated as function of outdoor
temperature using outdoor reset curve. See gure A-2
• CH Mode = 3 ‘CH with Permanent Demand’
• CH demand is prermanently on.
• Boiler will permanently attempt to satisfy CH
demand.
• CH thermostat input is ignored.
• CH set point is adjusted in ‘Settings’ submenu under
‘User Menu’
Note:
• Once CH demand is satised (i.e. CH thermostat opens or
boiler determines its minimum ring rate exceeds system
heating load):
• Burner shuts off, boiler enters post purge.
• CH pump continues to run for 30 seconds.
• Control will wait until Anti-cycle time of 180 seconds
elapses before boiler res again. Prevents short-
cycling.
• The internal heat exchanger pump is energized anytime demand
exists regardless of Pump Mode setting or type of demand (CH or
DHW).

DHW Settings
Explanation
Maximum time boiler operates in DHW mode limited by DHW
Maximum Priority Time Setting.
Priority timer starts when both CH and DHW demand is present.
Boiler will switch from DHW back to CH operation after Maximum
Priority Time has elapsed.
CH demand then has priority until Maximum Priority Time has
elapsed.
Process repeats until either CH or DHW demand satised.
System test can be activated via installer menu for testing
system at xed power rates.
Boiler can be started without CH or DHW demand being present.
System Test has priority over any system demand while test
mode activated.
System test mode automatically ends after 30 minutes boiler
resumes normal operation.
The following modes are available:
System Test
• Disabled
• Low power - Burner starts. After ignition period has
nished the burner stays at low power
• Ignition power - Burner starts. Stays at ignition power
• High power - Burner starts. After ignition period has
nished burner stays at high power.
Note:
• Before running system test modes, check if hydronic
system capable of dissipating heat.
• Both heat exchanger and CH pumps are activated during
system test.
• During System Test Mode, boiler will run at xed power
rates until supply water temperature is 93°C/195°F
• All other safety functions remain active while in System
Test Mode.
