! WARNING
All information in this manual is for
reference and guidance purposes,
and does not substitute for required
professional training, conduct,
and strict adherence to applicable
jurisdictional/professional codes and
regulations.
The discharge from the safety relief
valve must be arranged to ensure
no danger of scalding personnel, or
equipment damage.
Provisions must be made to properly
pipe the safety relief discharge
away from the boiler to the point of
discharge.
No shuto of any kind shall be placed
between the safety relief valve
and the boiler, or in the discharge
pipe between the valve and the
atmosphere. Doing so may cause an
explosion from overpressure.
The hydronic system should never be
ushed while the boiler is attached
to the system since the debris could
accumulate in the boiler and block
water from passing through the heat
exchanger.
For water-only systems, the water
pressure at the boiler outlet must be
12 psi or greater at all times while
the boiler is in operation. For systems
using up to 50% glycol, a minimum of
30 psi is required at the boiler outlet.
Install Water Piping
All water supplies contain some solids, dissolved gases or dissolved minerals.
These may cause corrosion, deposition and/or fouling of equipment. To prevent
these contaminants from impacting boiler performance, valve operation and
general pipe longevity, you must analyze and treat each installation uniquely.
Adhere to the following for water piping installation (see Figures 4 7):
Manual isolation valves are recommended on both water connections for
ease of service.
Install piping such that the boiler is not supporting any piping load. Install manual purging valves in all loops and zones. Install a pressure-reducing (automatic ll) valve in the cold water ll line to
the boiler system.
NOT:For water-only systems, the water pressure at the boiler outlet must
be 12 psi or greater at all times while the boiler is in operation. For systems
using up to 50% glycol, a minimum of 30 psi is required at the boiler outlet.
To prevent scale and corrosion in boiler and associated piping, make
up water must be kept to a minimum. This is best achieved by ensuring
immediate repair of all leaks and that system pressure is maintained.
Check that the proposed operation of zone valves, zone circulator(s) and
diverting valves will not isolate air separator(s) and/ or expansion tank(s)
from the boiler.
Provide at least 6 inches (152 mm) clearance from hot water pipes to
combustibles.
When used with a refrigeration system, install the boiler so that the chilled
medium is piped in parallel with the boiler with appropriate valves to
prevent the chilled medium from entering the boiler. If the boilers are
connected to heating coils (located in air handling units) where they may
be exposed to refrigerated air circulation, such boiler piping systems must
be equipped with ow control valves or other automatic means to prevent
gravity circulation of the boiler water during the cooling cycle.
Include the following in the mechanical equipment in the hydronic
heating system:
2-6
» An automatic pressure activated water make up valve with back ow
preventer. It must be set to maintain required 12 psi or greater at
boiler outlet, Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) for re-circulating
pumps, a positive system pressure at the highest point of at least
5-10 PSIG, and should be designed to add water to the system at the
outlet of the boiler but should not be fed directly into the boiler.
» Air removal equipment, including an air separator and automatic
breather valves, along with a functioning expansion tank . Each must
NOTE:The upper water connection on the back of the boiler is the outlet
connection. The lower water connection on the rear of the boiler is the inlet
connection.
Install ltration in the common loop or per boiler to remove particulates. A
#4 or ner mesh size is required.
Install bypass chemical feeder for corrosion inhibitor maintenance if
required to comply with water chemistry requirements.
Install corrosion coupon holder to assess corrosion inhibitor performance if
required to comply with water chemistry requirements.
Before installing an Endura+ boiler into a hydronic loop, be sure that the
system piping and any other components of the system are clean and free
of debris, ferrous oxide (magnetite), and any foreign matter. The hydronic
system must be completely ushed prior to installing the boiler.

Variable Primary Piping Arrangement
Endura+ boilers are designed for installation in variable primary ow piping
arrangements (see Figures 4 and 5), sometimes referred to as full ow systems.
This arrangement eliminates temperature mixing associated with primarysecondary piping, thereby delivering the lowest temperature water directly
to the boiler return connections and increasing thermal eciency of the
condensing boiler plant.
NOTE:Although it is acceptable to install Endura+ boilers in a primary-
secondary conguration, it is not required.
Adhere to the following for variable primary piping arrangements:
Select pump(s) with sucient total dynamic head for the pressure drop of the
loop at design ow: See Figure 3 for the water side pressure drop through

jurisdictional/professional codes and
regulations.
Do not use matches, candles, ame or
other sources of ignition to check for
gas leaks.
in the event of a low ow condition; however, proper design ow will be
required to deliver heat to users and prevent nuisance high temperature
limit trips.
Use motorized isolation valves: Ensure system eectiveness by eliminating
ow through idle boilers in accordance with ASHRAE 90.1-2013 (6.5.4.3.2).
Blending of unheated supply water may impact temperature control
operation or cause manual reset high temperature lockouts. One
motorized isolation valve should be installed per boiler; two-position type
actuator, open or closed. It is acceptable to install the valve on either the
inlet or the outlet piping of each boiler.
Motorized isolation valve control: Ensure ow paths in the hydronic loop
and residual heat in the pressure vessel is adequately dispersed when the
burner is disabled. The valve control system must be capable of leaving the
lead boiler valve open at all times.
Use a reverse return header to properly balance ow across the boilers
for multiple boiler systems: Where reverse return cannot be used, it is
recommended to install a balancing valve per boiler.
Do not install three-way mixing valves or minimum temperature protection:
The Endura+ boiler does not have a minimum return water temperature
requirement.
Primary-Secondary Piping Arrangement
It is acceptable to install the Endura+ boiler in a primary-secondary arrangement,
although this arrangement is not required. See Figures 6 and 7. Primarysecondary arrangements are used to decouple the water ow of the primary
(boiler) loop from the secondary (system) loop. Temperature mixing occurs in the
shared piping region.
Adhere to the following for primary-secondary piping arrangements:
Typical shared piping methods include closely spaced tees, a buer tank, or
a hydraulic separator.
When using closely spaced tees as a decoupling method, the tees should
be separated by four pipe diameters or less.
Install the dedicated boiler circulator on the inlet side of the Endura+
boiler, pumping into the return connection. Select pump(s) with sucient
total dynamic head for the pressure drop of the loop at design ow. See
Figure 3 for the water side pressure drop through the boiler.
For multiple boiler systems:
» Use a single common supply connection and a single common return
connection into the secondary (system) piping. Do not use separate
connections for each boiler into the secondary piping.
2-10
» Use a reverse return primary header to properly balance ow across
the boilers. Where reverse return cannot be used, it is recommended
to install a balancing valve per boiler.
System water chemistry requirements are as follows:
pH: Range of 8.5 - 10.5
Oxygen: Less than 250 ppb (operating condition)
Total Iron/Copper: Less than 5 ppm
Corrosion Inhibitor: Capable of maintaining iron corrosion rates <2 mpy.
Due to changing environmental restrictions, a non-heavy metal ALL
ORGANIC inhibitor is recommended which is designed for multi-metal
systems including ferrous metals and yellow metals such as copper and
brass.
Chloride: Less than 200 ppm
Hardness: Less than 3.5 grains per gallon (60 ppm) in make-up/ll water.
Calcium buildup on heating surfaces is not covered under warranty.
Adhere to the following:
1. Refer to your water conditioning or chemical treatment supplier for
analysis and recommendations for proper system conditions.
2. Follow a program with appropriate monitoring and maintenance of system
water conditions as provided by your water conditioning or chemical
treatment supplier.
3. If RO/DI water is used as a source for hydronic loop water or makeup water,
it must be neutralized to a pH of 8.5 - 10.5 prior to entering the boiler.
Failure to neutralize the RO/DI water will void the pressure vessel warranty
and may cause high general corrosion rates.
The system must have an automatic pH controller to monitor and log
the levels. This must be independent of other chemical feed systems.
Makeup water pH range must be 7.5 - 8.8; the boiler water must be
maintained within pH range of 8.5 - 10.5.
4. Operate the boiler in a pressurized closed-loop system using water or
water/glycol solution. A large amount of improperly treated make-up
water can cause premature failure of the heat exchanger resulting from
scale build up. Scale build up will reduce the eciency and useful life of
the boiler and is not covered under warranty.
5. For freeze protection, an inhibited propylene glycol is recommended.
The maximum concentration is 50% glycol by volume. Only use mixtures
formulated for hydronic systems. DOWFROST™ HD is recommended. Do
not use automotive glycol.
! WARNING
All information in this manual is for
reference and guidance purposes,
and does not substitute for required
professional training, conduct,
and strict adherence to applicable
jurisdictional/professional codes and
regulations.
If the water supply must be
temporarily disconnected from the
condensate drain trap, the boilers
must be turned o to prevent
accidental ue gas emission into the
boiler room.
4 CAUTION
Some soap used for leak testing is
corrosive to certain types of metals.
Clean all piping thoroughly after
completing the leak check.
Care needs to be taken to eliminate
oxygen from the water system, as
excess oxygen in the system will
reduce the life of any boiler. The
boiler warranty does not cover heat
exchanger replacement due to oxygen
contamination of boiler water.
Heat exchanger failure due to
inappropriate water quality, foreign
matter or debris damage is not covered
under the warranty.
If the piping system attached to this
unit will be chemically cleaned, the
boiler must be disconnected from the
system and a bypass installed so that
the chemical cleaning solution does
not circulate through the boiler. If
cleaning is desired, ush the boiler with
clean domestic water only.
NOTE:For systems using up to 50% glycol, a minimum of 30 psi is required at the
boiler outlet.
6. At a minimum, the hydronic uid should be checked for glycol
concentration and pH once a year, or per glycol manufacturer schedule. A
refractometer is recommended.

boiler name plate, a line gas pressure regulator is required
to step the gas pressure down to an acceptable pressure.
See Figure 9.
Proper selection and installation of a gas pressure regulator
is essential in providing ideal conditions for ecient and
reliable combustion. Adhere to the following guidelines
when selecting and installing a gas pressure regulator:
A sediment trap is recommended prior to the inlet of
the regulator.
If the level of pipe system cleanliness is unacceptable
or unknown, install a gas lter prior to the regulator.
On the outlet of the regulator: Install a straight and
uninterrupted section of pipe matching regulator
connection size with a minimum length of 10 pipe
diameters prior to any valves or ttings.
When installed in close proximity to an appliance,
some regulators may experience oscillation (hunting)
or an outlet pressure spike when demand ends.
Provide adequate volume by locating the regulator
a minimum of 10 total linear feet of pipe from boiler
fuel train inlet. Consult the regulator manufacturer for
installation requirements.
The body size should never be larger than the pipe
size. However, a properly sized regulator may be
smaller than the pipeline.
The inlet pressure used for sizing should be measured
directly at the regulator inlet. Measurements taken at
any other point may be subject to losses associated
with upstream piping.
Consult the regulator manufacturer for orice selection.
If two or more springs are available for a particular
outlet pressure in the desired range use the spring with
the lower range for better accuracy.
NOTE:Regulators are not intended for use as “shut o”
devices. As per ANSI Z21.80/CSA 6.22 lock-up is dened as an
outlet pressure not more than 150% or 5” W.C., whichever is
greater, above the setpoint after a downstream safety shuto
valve closes within 2 seconds.
Appliance regulators must not be used as line gas
pressure regulators to step down the gas pressure.
For additional information regarding gas regulator
selection and installation consult your regulator
manufacturer, any applicable local codes or ordinances,
the standard for line pressure regulators ANSI Z21.80/
CSA 6.22, and The National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI
Z223.1.
Gas Piping Installation
Adhere to the following for gas piping installation:
1. See Table 3 for required natural gas pipe size, based on
overall length of pipe from the meter plus equivalent
length of all ttings. Approximate sizing may be based
on 1,020 BTU for 1 cubic foot of natural gas. See Figures
6 and 7 for piping arrangements.
2. Install a manual gas shuto valve prior to the boiler.
3. Piping must be installed such that no piping stresses
are transmitted to the boiler. The boiler cannot be used
as a pipe anchor.

Components Requiring Ventilation to the
Outdoors
NOTE:The port marked “AIR” on the SKP25 actuator cannot
be used as as gas vent connection. Connecting a vent line to
this port may cause operational issues.
The following do not require ventilation to the outdoors, as
there is a vent limiter in use:
Regulator on the pilot line (not applicable to all sizes).
An authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) may not permit the
use of a vent limiter on some or all components. If venting is
required, use the following general guidelines:
Drill an appropriately sized penetration for each vent
line of the boiler cabinet. Do not install any vent lines
through removable latching panels. Properly seal
around the pipe with sensor safe silicone.
Each component must have a separate vent line to
the outdoors. Vent lines must not be manifolded or
combined with any other vent or exhaust systems.
Start with the vent connection size and as soon as it is
practical, increase the pipe size one diameter. For every
ten feet of vent, increase the pipe size one diameter.
Never reduce the vent size.
Protect the vent termination from debris, dust and
insects. Install the vent termination above the snow
line and point down to prevent ingress of water. The
termination must be a minium of 3 ft (0.9 m) from a
source of ignition.
Install Condensate Drain Trap
A condensate drain trap is intended for use with the Fulton
Endura+ boiler.
Single Boiler Drain Trap
The single boiler condensate drain trap is Fulton Part Number
4-57-005500. The drain trap must be congured one per
boiler, with a maximum of 4.0 MMBH total. (See Figures 11
and 13).
Adhere to the following for installation:
1. A exible condensate drain hose must be installed
between the boiler and any piping anchored to the

2. The 1 inch (25.4 mm) boiler condensate drain outlet will
be reduced and connected to the 3/4 inch (19.05 mm)
inlet on the top of the drain trap.
3. A condensate collecting tank and condensate pump
will be required if a oor drain is not available to collect
condensate (collecting tank and pump are not supplied
with the boiler).
4. All piping (Figure 11) must be CPVC, high temperature
silicone tubing, galvanized, or stainless steel, and be
free of leaks. Copper, carbon steel/iron pipe, or PVC are
not acceptable.
5. The 3/4 inch (19.05 mm) drain trap outlet must remain
below the 1 inch (25.4 mm) boiler condensate drain.
6. Connect the 3/4 inch (19.05 mm) trap outlet to an
appropriate waste line following applicable codes. The
3/4 inch (19.05 mm) drain connection on the drain tank
must be the highest point prior to going to the drain.
Failure to keep drain piping lower than this point will
result in overow of the drain tank. Slope the drain pipe
away at a minimum pitch of 1 inch (25.4 mm) for every
12 feet (3.65 m).
2-16
7. Ensure condensate drain piping will not be exposed to

inlet on the drain trap. One or more drain lines may be
connected to this inlet (max of 12 MM BTU per drain)
using a common header pipe.
3. If the water supply must be temporarily disconnected,
the boilers must be turned o to prevent accidental ue
gas emission into the boiler room.
4. The condensate drain cover must be kept on at all times,
except during maintenance of the drain. This drain
should be checked regularly in your boiler maintenance
schedule.
5. A condensate collecting tank and condensate pump
will be required if a oor drain is not available to collect
condensate (collecting tank and pump are not supplied
with the boiler.)
6. All piping (Figure 12) must be CPVC, high-temperature
silicone tubing, galvanized, or stainless steel, and be
free of leaks. Copper, carbon steel/iron pipe or PVC are
not acceptable.
7. Connect 1 inch (25.4 mm) condensate drain(s) (at the
rear of the boiler), to the 1 inch (25.4 mm) inlet at the
base of the drain tank. The header must be at least 5.5
inches (14.2 cm) below the condensate outlet of the
individual boiler, and must remain ooded - achieved
by ensuring it is at least 5.5 inches (14.2 cm) below the
outlet of the condensate drain trap.
8. Connect the 1.5 inch (38.1 mm) drain outlet to an
appropriate waste line following applicable codes. The
1.5 inch (38.1 mm) drain connection on the drain tank
must be the highest point prior to going to the drain.

Venting Requirements
Adhere to the following venting requirements:
1. The Endura+ boiler can operate to the combined intake and ue exhaust
pressure drops without altering standard capacities: See Table 4.
2. The venting system draft pressure readings at the boiler exhaust
connection and air intake connection cannot exceed the maximum
values stated in Table 4; and must remain relatively stable throughout all
operating conditions, including the ignition sequence.
NOTE:Venting pressure is the combined result of frictional pressure drop and
natural draft (stack eect) in the combustion air intake piping (if used) and ue
gas exhaust system.
3. Drastic draft changes during operation may result in the generation of
excessive carbon monoxide or soot, which may aect operational reliability
and condition of burner, ignition assembly, or other combustion system
components leading to increased maintenance or replacement of these
items.
4. The equivalent length method is not an approved engineering method
for determining acceptability of a vent system due to varying burner
modulation rates, ambient air temperatures, and ue gas temperatures,
among other factors. Combustion air intake piping (if used) must be
accounted for in an analysis of the venting system.
5. If the maximum positive pressure is exceeded, the boiler may have to be
de-rated or require the installation of draft accessories such as a properly
selected exhaust assist fan to prevent operational issues from occurring. If
the maximum negative pressure is exceeded due to excessive natural draft
(stack eect), the exhaust system may require the use of draft accessories
such as a xed-position balancing bae or modulating overdraft damper.

! WARNING
Do not terminate venting into an
enclosed area.
Never use open ame or smoke from
a cigarette, cigar, or pipe as a testing
method during boiler installation,
operation, or maintenance.
Foreign substances, such as
combustible volatiles in the
combustion system can create
hazardous conditions. If foreign
substances can enter the air stream,
the boiler combustion air inlet must
be piped to an outside location.
Draft accessories must be appropriate for Category II/IV installations
and are not included with the boiler. Consult your venting supplier for
recommendations.
6. Adhere to local and jurisdictional codes and regulations, which may dier
from recommendations and diagrams contained in this manual.
7. Site specic conditions not addressed in this manual may require
additional precautions or design considerations. Consult your local Fulton
Representative and venting supplier for recommendations.
NOTE:Consult your venting pipe supplier for assistance with sizing of vent
materials and other potentially required accessories.
8. The layout of the piping used for air intake and exhaust must be done in a
way that facilitates smooth travel and natural ow.
9. A pressure drop calculation is an acceptable method for evaluating
theoretical draft, but is not enough information to fully validate
combustion air intake and ue gas exhaust vent systems. The designer and
installer must use good practice and remain cognizant of important factors
that cannot be captured by a pressure drop calculation such as local code
requirements, accessibility for inspection and maintenance, aesthetic
concerns, ue gas recirculation, stagnant vapor plumes, prevailing wind
direction, nearby mechanical equipment and other design considerations
1. It is the responsibility of the designer and installer of the venting system to
guarantee the prevention of ue gas recirculation (ue gases being drawn
into a boiler’s combustion air supply, or ue gases moving backward
through an idle boiler).
2-22
2. The installation of room exhaust fans in a boiler room is not recommended.
A boiler room exhaust fan or similar equipment can create down draft
in the stack or restrict the burner’s air supply which will result in poor
3. It is essential that only fresh air is allowed to enter the combustion
air system. Foreign substances, such as combustible volatiles in the
combustion system can create hazardous conditions.
4. Particulate matter or chemicals (example: chlorine, sulfur, freon, uorine,
perchlorethylene, halogenated compounds) in the combustion air supply
to the boiler will cause damage or failure to the heat exchanger and/
or burner and is not covered under warranty. High-risk situations for
particulate matter to be in the air include construction and maintenance
activities. See Table 5.

professional training, conduct, and strict
adherence to applicable jurisdictional/
professional codes and regulations.
4 CAUTION
NOTE:Pool and laundry room air may be contaminated with chlorine or uorine
compounds. If allowed to enter the combustion air supply, these contaminants
will signicantly increase the acidity of ue gas condensate, potentialy damaging
heat transfer surfaces. Damage to the heat exchanger due to poor combustion air
Dry cleaning/laundry areas; swimming pools; repair
shops; processing plants; manufacturing plants, active
construction sites; chemical storage; food processing
plants; farms; chillers; cooling towers.
Combustion Air Supply From the Boiler Room
Adhere to the following for installation:
1. Adequate combustion air and ventilation must be supplied to the boiler
room in accordance with local codes and NFPA54/ANSI Z233.1, Section
9.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation or CSA-B149.1 for Canada. The
minimum net free area requirements in Table 6 may not supersede
local and jurisdictional codes and regulations where there codes and
regulations require an opening of greater net free area. The boiler room
must meet the NFPA criteria for a non-conned space.
Oxygen sensors are susceptible to silicone
poisoning, which can cause premature
degradation. Use only "sensor safe" silicone
around the boiler and on combustion air
supply materials.
2. Verify combustion air is taken from the outdoors and not from the
inhabited or occupied spaces within the building. Ensure space and
nearby products are evaluated for the potential of combustion air
contaminants. See Table 5.
3. For installations providing two permanent openings directly
communicating with the outdoors, the minimum net free area of each
opening is 1 in per 4,000 BTU/hr of the total input capacity of the
combined burners located in the boiler room. A high opening and a low
opening is required. Ensure the high opening commences within 12 inches
of the ceiling, and the low opening commences within 12 inches of the
oor. See Table 6.

9. Where mechanical combustion air supply systems are used, such as a
combustion air supply fan or a motorized louver, they must be interlocked
with the boiler control panel to prove operation prior to burner ignition
and during burner operation. Where manual louvers are used, ensure they
are fully open prior to operating the boiler(s).
Air Piped From Outside Boiler Room
The combustion air supply can be piped directly to the air inlet of the boiler.
Adhere to the following for installation:
1. An adapter kit (factory option) is required to connect the boiler air inlet to
the combustion air piping. Use a rubber coupling to connect the air inlet
adapter to the air intake piping.
NOTE:The weight of combustion air intake piping must not be supported by the
boiler. Ensure air intake piping is externally supported on hangers or straps.
2. The air intake must be piped out of the building if the boiler room contains
contaminated air.
2-24
3. The combustion air intake termination must be located as to not be
subjected to the intake/exhaust of other mechanical equipment such as
other fuel red heating equipment, loading docks, generators, air handling
systems, and cooling towers.
4. Ensure the boiler room air is maintained at a dew point temperature below
the temperature of combustion air. Failure to provide adequate ventilation or
control dew point temperature may increase maintenance or damage boiler
components.
5. The air intake system must be designed to prevent any moisture from
draining to the boiler. Slope the air intake duct down away from the boiler.
See Figures 18 and 20.
6. Air Intake pipes and ttings shall be Schedule 40 PVC pipe or smoothwalled galvanized steel. All Schedule 40 PVC pipe, ttings, primer and
cement must conform to American National Standard Institute and the
American Society for Testing and Materials (ANSI/ASTM standards) per pipe
manufacturer’s requirements.
7. Intake PVC piping must be assembled using cement. This will ensure that
the intake is air tight and will not allow contaminates from the boiler room
into the boiler. The cement must be free owing and contain no lumps,
undissolved particles or any foreign matter that adversely aects the joint
strength or chemical resistance of the cement. The cement must not show
gelation, stratication, or separation that cannot be removed by stirring.
8. Adhere to procedure for cementing joints (per ASTM D2855).
9. Avoid sidewall exhaust with roof-terminated intake air. This may lead to
reverse stack eect when the boiler is idle.

Flue Gas Exhaust Venting
The Endura+ is equipped with a vent connection at the lower rear of the boiler.
Adhere to National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1) and the following for installation:
1. The Endura+ is a Category II/IV appliance, thus venting material must be
appropriate for condensing, positive pressure applications. Any venting
material supplied for the Endura+ boiler must be AL29-4C or 316L SS, listed
and labeled to UL 1738, and guaranteed appropriate for the application by
the manufacturer and supplier of the venting. It is also acceptable to vent
the Endura+ as a Category II condensing, negative pressure, for which an
upsized diameter is typically required.
2. Do not use boot tees or bullhead tees. Use inline condensate drains in
place of boot tees at the bottom of a vertical rise.
3. Barometric dampers are physically open to the mechanical space.
When used in a condensing boiler application with negative pressure
(Category II) exhaust vent, the design must prevent ue gas condensate
from draining down the outside of the stack or dripping into the space.
Barometric dampers must never be used in a positive pressure exhaust or a
direct vent sealed combustion application.

Common Venting Layouts for Endura+
It is possible to combine the air intake and/or exhaust venting
of multiple Endura+ boilers. The pressure drop across the
entire common system, the combined total of both air
intake and exhaust, must comply with the draft pressure
requirements for an individual boiler, see Table 4.
Refer to Figure 17 and adhere to the following for installation:
1. Consult your venting supplier for guidance in designing
common vented installations. The system must be
designed to prevent backow of exhaust gases through
idle boilers.
2. Endura+ boilers are not approved for combined
venting with other equipment such as steam boilers,
water heaters, generators, and other types of Fulton
equipment.
3. A constant diameter common header is recommended.
Do not use the static regain method.
4. A minimum 1/4” rise per foot run is required for
horizontal sections.
5. Where individual stacks transition into the common
header, a 45 degree reducing tee or elbow in the
direction of ow is recommended. Straight-in or 90
degree tees must not be used.
When designing a draft system for a quantity of two or more
Endura+ boilers, the following items must be considered
and addressed by the parties responsible for designing and
providing that system:
3. Precautions must be taken to ensure that the draft
pressure at each boiler is maintained within in the
required range (refer to Table 4) throughout all
conditions while also maintaining a slight negative
draft pressure in the common exhaust header. Consider
all possible operating conditions of the exhaust system
specic to the application, including:
Low and high ue gas temperatures
Low and high ambient air temperatures
All boilers operating at their maximum input
rating capacity
One boiler in the system operating at the low re
position
No boilers on, pre-purge and ignition
4. Consider the natural draft eects associated with
vertical exhaust vent rise. Over-draft control accessories,
such as modulating stainless steel dampers, may be
required to mitigate a negative pressure exceeding the
value in Table 4. An undersized common exhaust vent
or pressure drop due to horizontal run can create a
positive pressure common exhaust situation which may
require a mechanical draft assist (exhaust fan) system.
5. If the common exhaust conguration does not allow
for a stable negative pressure under all operating
conditions then a mechanical draft assist system, such
as a variable speed exhaust fan, may be required.
Venting Terminations
` COMMON VENTING EXHAUST BACKFLOW PREVENTION
1. When combining the exhaust vents of multiple
Endura+ boilers, the system must be designed to
guarantee ue gas and exhaust will not backow
through an idle boiler. This requires appropriately sizing
the common exhaust vent to maintain a slight negative
draft pressure throughout all operating conditions.
Alternative solutions may be considered provided
the solutions to prevent ue gas recirculation (FGR),
exhaust backow, and unacceptable draft pressures
have been thoroughly evaluated by the venting
designer and supplier.
2. It is recommended to install individually piped intake
vents or use neutral pressure boiler room air with a
common exhaust system. For common exhaust vent
applications also combining combustion air intake (CAI)
vents into a common pipe, it is necessary to size the
common CAI pipe for a negligible pressure loss.

Adhere to the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1) and the
following for installation:
1. Do not terminate the venting in an enclosed area. Care
must be taken when selecting the orientation of the
terminations.
2. All vent pipes and ttings must be installed with
appropriate air space clearances to combustibles. These
air space clearances apply to indoor or outdoor vents—
whether they are open, enclosed, horizontal or vertical
or pass through oors, walls, roofs, or framed spaces
(See Figures 18, 19 and 20). The air space clearances
should be observed to joists, studs, sub oors, plywood,
drywall or plaster enclosures, insulating sheathing,
rafters, roong, and any other material classed as
combustible.

7. It is recommended to install a mesh bird screen, with
minimum 1/2” by 1/2” openings, at the combustion air
intake termination. Climates subject to extreme cold may
require alternate congurations to provide an increased
surface area, such as cylindrical basket screens. Consult
your venting supplier for recommendations.
8. It is important to locate the exhaust termination in
such a way that it does not become blocked due to
snow, ice, and other natural or man-made obstructions.
If terminating into a prevailing wind, direct elbow
upward. Avoid areas (example: courtyards) where
swirling high winds may be present.
9. Fulton does not recommend the use of rain caps on the
ue termination. Rains caps contribute to ice buildup,
stagnant vapor plumes, ue gas recirculation (FGR), and
additional vent pressure loss. See Figures 18 and 19.
Wall Thimble Installation
Adhere to the following for installation (see Figure 21):
1. The thimble is inserted through the wall from the
outside.
2. Secure the outside ange to the wall with nails or
screws, and seal with adhesive material.
3. Install the inside ange to the inside wall, secure with
nails or screws, and seal with adhesive material.
4. Pass the vent pipe through the thimble from the
outside and join to the rest of the vent system. Seal the
pipe to the thimble ange with adhesive material.
5. Install two pipe retaining clamps around the intake as
well as vent pipes on both ends of the wall thimble (on
the inside and outside of the wall) through which intake
and vent pipes are passed. They will prevent the intake
Adhere to the following for installation (see Figures 18, 19):
1. The minimum vent height should extend at least 3 feet
(0.9 m) above the roof, or at least 2 feet (0.6 m) above
the highest part of any structure within 10 feet of the
vent.
2. When installing inlet and exhaust terminations above
the roof, the exhaust outlet must be installed 4 feet
(1.22 m) minimum above and 4 feet (1.22 m) minimum
downwind from air supply inlet to prevent exhaust
recirculation.
Side Wall Vent Termination
Adhere to the following for installation (see Figure 20):
NOTE: The vent termination is joined to the vent pipe outside
the wall. Use the same joining procedures for vent pipe and
ttings.
1. When penetrating a non-combustible wall, the hole
through the wall must be large enough to maintain
the pitch of the vent and provide sealing. Use adhesive
material to seal around the vent on both sides of the
wall. When penetrating a combustible wall, a wall
thimble must be used. Minimum wall thickness through
which vent system may be installed is 3.25 inches (8.26
cm). Maximum wall thickness through which vent
system may be installed is 20 inches (50.8 cm).
2. The termination of the vent system must be at least 12 inches (30.48 cm)
above the nished grade, or at least 12 inches (30.48 cm) above normal
snow accumulation level (for applicable geographical areas).
3. The termination of the vent system shall not be located over trac areas
such as public walkways, or over an area where condensate or vapor could
create a nuisance or hazard.
4. Do not terminate below operable windows and building openings unless
exception is granted by the authority having jurisdiction.
5. The vent terminations must be at least 4 ft (1.22 m) horizontally from
electric meters, gas meters, regulators, and relief equipment.
6. When installing inlet and exhaust terminations on the same wall, the
exhaust outlet must be installed 4 feet (1.22 m) minimum above and 10
feet (3.05 m) minimum downwind from air supply inlet to prevent ue gas
recirculation.
7. Under certain wind conditions, some building materials may be aected
by ue products expelled in close proximity to unprotected surfaces.
Sealing or shielding of the exposed surfaces with a corrosion resistant
material (such as an aluminum sheet) may be required to prevent staining
or deterioration. Flue should be directed away from surfaces, if possible.

Removing an Existing Boiler
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, while the other appliances remaining
connected to the common venting system are not in operation, the following
steps should be followed with each appliance remaining connected to the
common venting system placed 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 that there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion or
other deciency, which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. Insofar as 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 appliances not connected to the common
venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and
bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at maximum speed. Do not
operate a summer exhaust fan. Close replace dampers.
4. Place the appliance being inspected in operation. Follow the lighting
instructions. Adjust the thermostat so that the appliance will operate
continuously.
5. Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main

from a cigarette, cigar or pipe.
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 resizing any portion of the common venting system,
the common vent system should be resized to approach the minimum size
as determined using the appropriate tables.
Assembly of Fulton Multi-Skid Systems
Adhere to the following for multi-skid engineered systems:
1. Refer to the Fulton mechanical/electrical drawings during assembly.
2. Ensure that equipment orientation allows for operation interface and
maintenance.
3. Align the skids as shown on the drawings ensuring that skid fasteners (skid
joint angles) are matched. The skid joint angles are a matched set and the
edges of the fasteners should be exactly aligned.
NOTE:Do not bolt the skids to the housekeeping pad/oor until all of the piping
has been reassembled and tightened.
4. Ensure the skids are level and at before fastening the skids together with
the supplied bolts. The skids should be leveled front to back, side to side
and corner to corner. Failure to properly level the skids will result in piping
misalignment. A level or laser level should be used to verify skid alignment
(when a standard level is used, the length should be appropriate for the
skid). If assembling multi-component support stands, attach sections
using the supplied bolts through the tank frame mounting plates. These
should be hand tight until all of the piping is assembled.
NOTE:Skids are leveled at the factory using a laser level.
5. Connect the piping between the skids by matching the union connections
and/or ange stamps and tightening. Refer to the mechanical drawing as
necessary to conrm location of spool pieces etc. as the ange stamps are
shown on the drawing in hexagonal callouts. The ange stamps should
matched and aligned (the ange stamps should be directly across from
one another. Rotating a ange will result in piping misalignment). Bolts
should be hand tight until all of the piping is assembled. Refer to the
appropriate instructions to tighten the anges to the required torque
specications. Support pipe runs as required.
6. Ensure that a low point drain is installed in the piping.
2-34
7. Connect the conduit runs between the skids and tighten conduit
connectors.
8. Locate the supplied wiring for the equipment and pull wiring through
the appropriate conduit runs. Electrical wires are labeled for easy landing.
Connect all wiring per the Fulton supplied electrical drawings.
9. If a header is supplied, mount the header as shown in the mechanical
drawing.
NOTE:For piping supplied in sections, make up and connect hand tight until all
sections are in place to ensure sections align properly. Sections are match marked
for reassembly.
10. Tighten all connections, including threaded and anged factory
connections which may loosen during shipment.
11. Pneumatically test the piping (at 15 psig [103 kPa] maximum) prior to

EXPLOSION.
Perform Pre-Start-Up Inspection
Prior to start-up, perform the following:
1. If you smell gas:
Do not try to light any appliance. Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building. Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone.
2. Ensure the boiler is located with the proper clearances as shown in the
Clearances and Serviceability section of this manual.
3. Ensure that relief valves have been properly piped to oor drains.
4. Ensure ue gas from the boiler is properly vented.
5. Ensure the water system has been ushed and is free of debris.
6. Ensure combustion air openings are not obstructed in any way and have
adequate capacity.
7. Ensure there are no ammable liquids, materials or hazardous fumes
present in the environment.
8. Ensure nothing was damaged or knocked loose during installation and/or
shipment.
9. Inspect the main gas train and trim assembly to be sure they were not

10. Verify fan rotation direction is clockwise when viewed from the back of the
boiler.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS • Do
not try to light any appliance. • Do
not touch any electrical switch; do
not use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier
from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the
gas supplier’s instructions. • If you
cannot reach your gas supplier, call
the re department.
A qualied installer, service agency
or the gas supplier, must perform
installation and service.
Do not use this boiler if any part
has been under water. Immediately
call a qualied service technician to
inspect the boiler and to replace any
impacted part of the control system.
Fill and Purge the System
Completely ll and purge the heating system as follows:
1. Close combination shuto/purge valve in supply, all drain cocks, the
shuto valve for the pressure reducing (ll) valve, and all manual air vents.
2. Open a system valve, or ll through a drain connection.
3. Water will now begin to ll the system. Open the safety relief valve.
Continue lling until a constant stream of water (no bubbling) is
discharged from the safety relief valve.
4. At this point, the system has been initially lled. However, air pockets may
still remain at high points in the system and in heating loops above the
level of the safety relief valve valve. It is quite possible, depending on the
particular system that all piping above the safety relief valve still contains
air. If manual vents are installed on the system high points, these should
be opened to vent these locations. When only water is discharged from all
vents, the initial purging is complete.
5. With the gas shuto valve closed, turn on power to the boiler and operate
the circulator. Circulate the system water for approximately 30 minutes to
move all air to the automatic air separation point.
6. Check temperature/pressure indicator reading, which should equal the
pressure-reducing (ll) valve set pressure. No more water should be
entering the system. Close the shuto valve on the cold-water ll line.
7. Visually inspect all pipe joints and equipment connections for leaks. If
necessary, drain system, repair leaks and rell/purge the system. If no
pressure drop is detected for a period of two hours under pressure, the
system may be considered watertight.
8. When purging is completed, make sure the following are open—
combination shut-o/purge valve, shuto valve to pressure reducing (ll
valve), shuto valve in cold water ll line, and shuto valve in return line.
9. Make sure the following are closed - all drain cocks, the vent on the
combination shuto-purge valve, & all manual vents. Reset zone valves to
normal mode of operation and turn o power to boiler.
10. Open fuel shuto valve, allowing fuel to ow to boiler.
Commission The Boiler
Adhere to the following when commissioning the boiler:
1. Verify with authorized personnel that the gas lines have been purged. Do
not proceed without verication.
2. Familiarize all personnel on all aspects of boiler use, safety, and contents
of this manual. This includes, but is not limited to, the use of the controls,
lighting, and shutdown procedures.
3. Review the unit-specic burner and control schematics, and follow
appropriate instructions.
NOTE:Warranty coverage is valid only if the boiler is commissioned (“started
up”) by a factory authorized service technician with a valid Endura+ Certicate
of Authorization. The commissioning agency must successfully complete and
return the Fulton Installation and Operation Checklist report (“Start-up Report”) to
Fulton within twelve (12) weeks of start-up. Combustion and maintenance records
detailing compliance with the Installation, Operation and Maintenance manual
must be produced for warranty consideration.
! WARNING
Do not attempt to start the boiler for
any testing before lling and purging
the boiler. A dry re will seriously
damage the boiler and may result in
property damage or personnel injury
and is not covered by warranty.
Before commissioning the boiler,
verify with authorized personnel that
the gas lines have been purged.
Never attempt to operate a boiler
that has failed to pass all the safety
checks.
Never leave an opened manual air
vent unattended. In the event an
opened vent is left unattended, water
damage could occur.
For water-only systems, the water
pressure at the boiler outlet must be
12 psi or greater at all times while
the boiler is in operation. For systems
using up to 50% glycol, a minimum of
30 psi is required at the boiler outlet.
4 CAUTION
System Design and Boiler Operation
The Endura+ boiler must be installed in an appropriately designed system per
Installation section of this manual.
1. The boiler shall be operated/controlled to ensure the boiler does not cycle
more than 12,000 times per year.
2. The hydronic system may be operated with a temperature dierential
across the boiler inlet and outlet (delta-T) up to 100°F (55.5°C) when
using ≥ 35 psi water as the heat transfer uid. For systems with water/
glycol solutions, ensure the delta-T does not exceed 40°F (22°C). The
factory default maximum delta-T modier is 40°F (22°C). Consult your
Fulton representative for operating requirements and conguration for
applications requiring a higher delta-T.
3. Site-specic conditions, including combustion air temperature, elevation,
fuel temperature, caloric value of the fuel, combustion air system design,
exhaust system design, voltage uctuations and other factors, will impact
boiler performance.
4. Performance factors aected may include but are not limited to input/
output ratings, eciency, modulation rates and emissions.

! WARNING
Non-Fulton product information is for
reference purposes only. No Fulton
document should substitute for full
review of documentation available
from the component manufacturer.
4 CAUTION
Commissioning/Start up by a nonFulton authorized person will void the
product warranty.
Please read these instructions and
post in an appropriate place near the
equipment. Maintain in good legible
condition.
Maximum allowable working pressure
and operating temperature are 160
psig (1103 kPa) and 210°F (99°C),
respectively. Aquastats are set at 200°F
(93°C). Operating > 185°F (88°C) may
result in nuisance high-limit trips.
5. The Fulton factory Test Fire Report should be used as a point of reference
in commissioning settings for the boilers in the eld, however a factory
certied service technician should account for all site conditions when
nalizing operational settings.
Turndown
All Endura+ boilers are congured at the factory with a default modulation range
(turndown ratio). Wind eects on combustion air supply and exhaust terminations,
natural draft “stack eect,” and gas delivery systems (among other site factors) will
ultimately determine what turndown settings are optimal for each application.
Consult your local manufacturer’s representative or service organization with factory
authorization specic to the Endura+ product line for guidance.
Operation Modifiers
The Endura+ boiler has built in protection features to modify boiler operation in
the event certain system conditions approach or exceed operation requirements.
Operation modiers are intended to supplement, not replace, good practice in
system design, installation and operation. The following features are provided
and take priority over local or remote instruction:
1. The control will automatically reduce the fan speed, air and gas positions
should the boiler water exceed the factory default maximum outlet
temperature of 185°F. Consult your Fulton representative for operating
requirements and conguration for applications requiring higher outlet
temperatures up to 200°F.
NOTE:In the event of a High Limit Aquastat lockout, a manual reset will be
required.
2. The dierence between the inlet and outlet temperature (delta-T) is
monitored. If the delta-T approaches the limit specied in System Design and Boiler Operation, the control will reduce the fan speed, air and gas
position. The delta-T limit will scale down with lower ring rates as the
minimum ow rate limit becomes the dominant parameter. A warning is
enunciated after two recoverable events. A non-recoverable event due to
zero or low water ow will trigger a low ow alarm.
Siemens LMV3 Control
The Siemens LMV3 system is a fully packaged burner management system,
linkageless control and rst out annunciator.

Lead/Lag
Integrated multiple boiler sequencing “Lead/Lag” is congured and monitored
through this category and Admin. Ensure the boilers are on a private Ethernet/IP
network shared with no other devices before continuing setup.
To function properly on the network, the Local Ethernet/IP Address of each
boiler must be specically set on the System Conguration screen in the Admin
category:
Physical wiring of the local boiler network uses Ethernet Port 1. Wiring for the
Ethernet/IP network will change based on the number of boilers in the system.
For systems with two boilers, a single shielded Ethernet cable can be wired
directly between the boilers. For systems with more than two boilers, each boiler
will need to have a shielded Ethernet home run back to the Ethernet switch
(ships loose in trim kit when ordered).
To enable Lead/Lag functionality, use the Auxiliary Conguration screen under
the Admin category. Set the Number of Boilers eld to the number of boilers
to be controlled. These steps must be completed at each boiler. Ensure the
Universal Data, also under Admin, is properly congured for data sources.
` LEAD/LAG CONFIGURATION
This screen is used to set sequencing preferences.
Lead/Lag priority determines how the boilers are sequenced, either by
cycles only, hours only, or an optimized algorithm.
Number of boilers displays how many boilers the Lead/Lag system expects
to have under control.
Lead start is how far below setpoint before the lead boiler turns on.
Lead stop is how far above setpoint before the lead boiler turns o.

Setpoint
The boiler or multiple boiler system will maintain supply water temperature
based on a setpoint temperature. This setpoint can come from a variety of
sources, including by calculation from an outdoor air temperature sensor, a
remote signal from the Building Management System (BMS), or from a static
manually entered setpoint.
` SETPOINT CONFIGURATION
The Setpoint Source screen allows for the selection between the various setpoint
sources available.
When in Outdoor Reset mode, the control will automatically calculate the
hydronic loop setpoint based on the settings congured on the Outdoor Reset
screen.
BMS Analog will monitor either the 4-20mA or 0-10VDC contacts for a remote
setpoint signal; the BMS Analog screens are used for the linearization settings for
the control signal.
When in BMS Network mode, the control will maintain setpoint based on the
Modbus RTU write point. Protocol conversion gateways are available for alternate
communication protocols including BACnet and LonWorks.
` OUTDOOR RESET
Outdoor air reset curves are congured through the Outdoor Reset screens. The
normal (occupied) setpoint curve and the setback (unoccupied) setpoint curve
are congured through separate screens.
The hydronic loop temperature setpoint will be calculated based on congured
outdoor air and setpoint high and low temperature values. When the outdoor air
temperature reaches a warm weather shutdown Outdoor Air Cuto temperature,
the boilers will be disabled until outdoor air temperature has decreased by the
value assigned in the Cuto Reset.
` BMS ANALOG 420MA AND 010VDC
High and low setpoint values must be assigned for correct linearization.
Scheduling
The Scheduling system allows for the operator to congure when the normal
(occupied) setpoint will be maintained. When outdoor reset is enabled, the
normal setpoint curve will establish setpoint during these time frames with the
setback (unoccupied) setpoint curve establishing setpoint for all other times. See
the Outdoor Reset screen in Setpoint.
Trending data is continuously recorded by the control and can be enabled or
disabled by the operator. Tap the “Next Curve” button to navigate through data

The Universal Data system allows the boilers to share vital data over the Ethernet/
IP Boiler Network without having to wire individual sensors to each boiler, or
write commands to each boiler. Congure the Universal Data sources at each
boiler, for that specic boiler.
Physically Wired – The control will look to its own I/O inputs for the
information it needs and will then share that information with the Boiler
Network.
Boiler Network – The control will look to the local Ethernet/IP network for
the information it needs. In order for this to work, one boiler will need to
share that information with the network setup as either physically wired or
BMS network.
BMS Network – The control will look to the Building Management Network
for the information that it needs and will share it with the rest of the boiler
network.
Please note that each signal/sensor can be independently congured,
meaning one boiler could provide a setpoint to the boiler network, and
another could provide the system header temperature, for instance.

The boiler must be placed in commissioning mode prior to adjusting combustion parameters. This screen is intended for trained factory authorized technicians. This allows easy access to locking the SAS valve, and adjustments to %O2
setpoint for the O2 Compensation system at the ring rate ranges. Place the SAS
Control into No Lock and tap the Complete Commissioning button when setup is
fully completed to return to normal operation.
Perform Test of Limit Controls
Fire the boiler and test the high limit control as follows:
1. Alter high temperature limit to a value lower than the anticipated loop
temperature. Turn the boiler on. Water temperature will rise until the
boiler locks out. This condition has to be manually reset.
2. Alter the high limit cut o temperature to normal level, typically 10-20
degrees above set point.
Perform Test of Low Gas Pressure Switch
Test the low gas pressure switch as follows:
1. With the boiler running turn up the low gas pressure switch until a lock out
is annunciated.
2. Return the switch to normal setting, re-start the boiler.
Perform Test of High Gas Pressure Switch
Test the high gas pressure switch as follows:
1. With the boiler running turn down the high gas pressure switch until a lock
out is annunciated.
2. Return the switch to normal setting, re-start the boiler.

General
Your Endura+ boiler has been designed to provide years of trouble free
performance. To ensure continued safety and eciency of the boiler, please follow
the maintenance and inspection directions outlined in this section of the manual.
Daily, Weekly and Monthly Maintenance and Inspection are considered good
practice for any boiler, and is applicable to the full line of Endura+ boilers. It is
also good practice for any boiler installation to perform a thorough review of
the overall system on a regular basis, and after any maintenance procedures.
Any potential issues should be noted and followed up on to ensure safety and
reliability of all relevant equipment. System review items may include:
Looking for discoloration of any painted equipment, boiler jacket panels,
and/or insulation used in system piping.
Carefully checking for gas leaks using a combustible gas detector during
commissioning and regular inspactions; a Gasmate® 0119 or equivalent is
recommended. This includes, but is not limited to, gas delivery system, gas
train ttings, pressure switches, gas valves, regulators, conduit connections
to gas devices, and pre-mix delivery components.
Looking for evidence of leaks including the air intake/exhaust systems,
boilers, hydronic system piping, pumps, valves and other system
components.
Once boilers are running, making sure there are no ue gases around the
boilers, or in the boiler room.
NOTE:Combustion analysis and adjustment schedule can vary based on boiler
application and seasonal conditions. Biannual or quarterly adjustment may be
optimal in some applications—for example, systems operating as both winter
heat and summer reheat.
Daily Maintenance and Inspection Schedule
After initial start-up by qualied
personnel, linkage, control settings,
and fuel pressures should not be
readjusted.
4 CAUTION
All maintenance procedures should
be completed by trained personnel.
Appropriate training and instructions
are available from the Fulton Service
Department at (315) 298-5121 or
your local Fulton Heating Solutions
Representative.
In order to meet warranty conditions,
ensure all appropriate maintenance
activities are performed.

Daily maintenance and inspection must include the following:
1. Observe operating temperature and general conditions.
2. Verify that the ow of combustion and ventilating air to the boiler is not
obstructed.
3. Boiler area is free and clear of any combustible materials, including
ammable vapors and liquids.
Weekly Maintenance and Inspection Schedule
Weekly maintenance and inspection must include the following:
1. Observe the conditions of the main ame. Correct fuel/air adjustment
is essential for the ecient and reliable operation of this boiler. If an
adjustment to the combustion is necessary, the ue gas composition
should be checked with a carbon dioxide (CO2) or oxygen (O2) analyzer to
Monthly maintenance and inspection must include the following:
1. Test high-limit control by reducing setting below the operating
temperature; burner should shut o. After readjusting the setpoint, reset
the control.
2. Test operating temperature control by reducing temperature setting as
necessary to check burner operation.
3. Check ue gas temperature at outlet. If there is a temperature increase
over previous readings, the probable cause is soot or water-scale build-up
on the tubes. Consult your Fulton representative immediately if there is a
concern.
4. Test low gas pressure switch and high gas pressure switch utilizing the
procedure in Operation section of this manual.
5. Inspect the combustion air inlet lter. If dust, lint or debris has accumulated
such that the lter appears heavily loaded visually, replace the lter
immediately.

Annual Maintenance and Inspection Schedule
Annual maintenance and inspection must be performed prior to each heating
season, and includes but is not limited to the following tasks, which must be
done by a factory trained technician:
1. Inspect the fuel train, burner and control panel to be sure components are
free of debris and are properly attached to the boiler.
2. Replace the combustion air inlet lter with a new lter of the same Fulton
part number (type, size and style).
3. Inspect exible premix couplings; replace immediately if damaged or
worn.
4. Examine the venting system (air intake and exhaust piping):
Check all joints and pipe connections for tightness.
Check piping for corrosion or deterioration.
Check that the piping is clear of debris.
Check that the condensate drain system is functioning.
5. Inspect the hydronic heating system for other problems.
6. Leak test the gas valves.
7. Clean the low water cut-out probe on the water outlet pipe. This can be
accessed via the top removable panel.
In order to meet warranty conditions,
ensure all appropriate maintenance
activities are performed.
Burner gaskets must not be reused.
Gaskets are designed for one-time use
only.
Using nuts and washers not provided
by Fulton can lead to ue gas leakage
and cause damage to the studs.
Follow proper safety precautions when
using a ladder.
8. Remove and inspect burner. Clean as necessary. See Removing,
Inspecting and Cleaning Burner section of this manual.
9. Test relief valve per manufacturer instructions by lifting the lever for 5
seconds and allowing the valve to snap shut. Please see the manufacturer’s
recommendations on the relief valve tag.
10. Perform combustion analysis and adjust if necessary. A low O level,
resonance or harmonic can indicate a need for burner service.
11. Replace the O sensor with a new sensor. Press “Reset O” on the
Maintenance screen.
O2 Compensation Measurement
The Fulton authorized service technician’s gas analyzer measures O% after ue
gas moisture removal, while the boiler O sensor measurement is made without
removal of the moisture. For operator convenience, the boiler O sensor “wet”
value is approximated to a “dry” value for control screen display purposes. This
approximation may deviate from the test apparatus; the compared values should
be within ±1.0% O. Discrepancies may be observed if the technician’s gas analyzer
has not been properly calibrated per manufacturer instructions and time interval.
NOTE:THE O COMPENSATION READOUT IS NOT A REPLACEMENT FOR A
CALIBRATED FLUE GAS ANALYZER. Under no circumstances should the O
compensation readout value be used for combustion adjustment and verication; a
calibrated ue gas analyzer is required.
For the following procedure, be sure to reference Figures 25 and 26.
1. A burner maintenance parts kit is required to complete the following
steps. Contact your Fulton representative to purchase this parts kit before
proceeding, please have your National Board number ready to expedite
service.
2. EDR+2500/3000 Only: Access to the burner is provided through the top of
the cabinet, removing a side panel will facilitate access.
3. EDR+4000-6000 Only: Access to the burner is provided through the front
cabinet door.
4. Loosen the hose clamps on exible couplings and remove the premix
elbow.
5. Remove safety and control devices from the burner ange, including the
ignition assembly, UV ame scanner, and O bypass line.
6. Loosen and remove the nuts and washers from the burner ange. Take
care to properly handle and store the hardware during maintenance.
NOTE:Due to unique hardware specications, alternate hardware must not be
substituted. If hardware is lost or damaged, contact your Fulton representative
for replacements.
! WARNING
Specied torque values are mandatory
to ensure safe and reliable oeration of
the boiler. Failure to properly torque
hardware may result in PERSONAL
INJURY, DEATH, or property damage.
O bypass line is hot; contact with
ammable materials can cause a re.
Do not touch or work on the O system
while hot.
THE O COMPENSATION READOUT
IS NOT A REPLACEMENT FOR A
CALIBRATED FLUE GAS ANALYZER.
Under no circumstances should the O2
compensation readout value be used for
combustion adjustment and verication;
a calibrated ue gas analyzer is required.
7. Carefully remove the burner from the combustion chamber and cabinet,
taking precaution to ensure the burner metal ber material does not
make contact with any other surfaces.
NOTE:Do not use liquids or brushes when cleaning the burner.
8. Visually inspect the interior and exterior of the burner for debris. If debris
is present, use a compressed air blow gun with air pressure of 30 psi (2
bar) to maximum 72.5 psi (5 bar). The blow gun must be a minimum 0.40
inches (1 cm) from the surface of the burner. Carefully vacuuum debris
from the inside of the burner.
NOTE:The combustion air supply must meet the requirements detailed in
the Installation section. Combustion air contaminants can lead to excessive
maintenance or damage to burner components. The MERV 8 lter will capture
90+% of particles from 3-10 microns, but a small percentage will pass through
to the burner head. Installations with poor combustion air quality may require
burner cleaning more frequently than the annual service. A dirty burner may
experience audible combustion harmonics within the normal operating range,
requiring a need for cleaning. Damage due to poor combustion air quality is not
covered under the warranty. A damaged burner will require replacement.
