145oFLess than 3 seconds
150oFAbout 1 1/2 seconds
155oFAbout 1 second
Table 1 - Approximate Time / Temperature Relationships in Scalds
G. High Elevation Installations
Natural gas at high elevation might contain less heating value
than typical 1,000 BTU/cu ft and therefore can cause improper
air / gas mix leading to improper combustion. For natural gas
installations above 3,000 ft, call your gas provider to determine
the heating value of the supplied natural gas.
Part 2 - Before You Start
Remove all sides of the shipping crate of the appliance.
A. What’s in the Box
Components included with the appliance:
• Intake PVC Tee with Screens
• Exhaust PVC Coupling with Screens
• 30 PSI Temperature and Pressure Relief Valve
• Installation Manual and Warranty
• User’s Information Manual
• Pressure and Temperature Gauge
• Outdoor Sensor (Part # 7250P-319)
B. How the Appliance Operates
Condensing Technology maximizes eciency by measuring
the needs of your heating system through the use of sensors
and a control unit. The appliance uses data gathered by
these sensors to intelligently deliver highly ecient hydronic
heating.
Heat Exchanger
Exhaust gas ows through the primary section of the highly
ecient combustion heat exchanger into the secondary heat
exchanger section, where the coldest water on the bottom of
the tank extracts the last residual amount of heat energy from
the gas.
Modulating Combustion System
The combustion system modulates the output of the burner
during operation to match system demand and achieve
the control set point while in operation. The set point can
change by internal or external signals to enhance the overall
performance of the system.
Gas Valve
The gas valve senses suction from the blower, allowing gas to
ow only if combustion air is owing.
Swirl Plate System
The swirl plate on the gas valve controls air and gas ow into
the burner, assuring better mixing for improved combustion.
Combination Top High Temperature Sensor
The control module adjusts appliance ring rate based on the
supply temperature monitored by this sensor.
Bottom Water Temperature Sensor
The control module reduces or increases appliance input
according to the return water temperature measured by this
sensor.
Temperature and Pressure Gauge
Allows the user to monitor system temperature and pressure.
Control
The integrated control system monitors return and supply
water temperature and regulates the unit’s BTU output by
controlling fan speed, delivering only the amount of heated
energy required.
Burner
The metal ber and high grade stainless steel burner uses premixed air and gas to provide a wide range of ring rates.
Electrical Field Connections with Terminal Strips
The cabinet allows easy access to the clearly marked line
voltage and low voltage terminal strips to facilitate wiring to
the appliance.
Condensate Drain Connection
This is a condensing high eciency appliance with a
LP-325 Rev. 4.4.17
Page 7
7
condensate removal system. Condensate is nothing more
than water vapor derived from combustion products, similar
to that of an automobile when it is initially started. It is very
important that the condensate line slopes away from the
appliance and down to a suitable inside drain.
If the appliance condensate outlet is lower than the drain, use
a condensate removal pump (Part # 554200, available from
HTP). In addition, local authorities may require a condensate
neutralizer to neutralize the condensate. Condensate
neutralizers are made up of lime crystals, marble, or phosphate
chips. Neutralizers can be installed in the eld by the installer
and purchased from HTP (7450P-212).
It is also very important not to expose the condensate line to
freezing temperatures or any type of blockage. Plastic tubing
must be the only material used for the condensate line. Steel,
brass, copper, or other materials will be subject to corrosion
or deterioration. A second vent may be necessary to prevent
condensate line vacuum lock on a long horizontal run. Also,
an increase in pipe size may be necessary to allow condensate
to drain properly. Support of the condensate line may be
necessary to avoid blockage of the condensate ow.
Spark Ignition
The burner ame ignites by applying high voltage to the
system spark electrode. This causes a spark from electrode to
ground.
Outdoor Sensor
When equipped, the outdoor sensor monitors outdoor
temperature and adjusts the set point to provide greater
eciency.
(Optional) Indirect Tank Sensor – Indirect Priority
To control the temperature of low temperature heating
circuits when using an indirect red water appliance, a
thermostatic mixing valve is required. Failure to install a
thermostatic mixing valve could result in property damage,
severe personal injury, or death.
The indirect sensor allows the installer to operate the
appliance to satisfy two temperatures: one for central heating
and the other for a domestic hot water heater. This allows the
user to increase water temperature supplied to the appliance
to recover faster by prioritizing ow at a higher rate than
may be needed for central heating. NOTE: This application
requires two separate circulators.
C. Optional Equipment
Optional equipment available from HTP (and Part #):
• UL 353 Compliant Low Water Cut-O Interface Kit with
Manual Reset (7350P-601)
• Vision 2 Temperature Mixing Control (7250P-322)
NOTE: When using an optional system sensor, pipe insulation
must be wrapped around it to improve temperature
measurement accuracy and increase overall system eciency.
Part 3 - Prepare the Appliance
Remove all sides of the shipping crate to allow the appliance to
be moved into its installation location.
COLD WEATHER HANDLING - If the appliance has been stored
in a very cold location (BELOW 0oF) before installation, handle
with care until the components come to room temperature.
Failure to do so could result in damage to the appliance.
Carefully consider installation when determining appliance
location. Please read the entire manual before attempting
installation. Failure to properly take factors such as appliance
venting, piping, condensate removal, and wiring into account
before installation could result in wasted time, money, and
possible property damage and personal injury.
A. Locating the Appliance
This appliance is certied for indoor use only. DO NOT INSTALL
OUTDOORS. Outdoor installations ARE NOT covered by
warranty. Failure to install the appliance indoors could result in
property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
Incorrect ambient conditions can lead to damage to the
heating system and put safe operation at risk. Ensure that the
installation location adheres to the information included in
this manual. Failure to do so could result in property damage,
serious personal injury, or death. Failure of an appliance or
components due to incorrect operating conditions IS NOT
covered by product warranty.
This appliance must be installed upright in the vertical position
as described in this manual. DO NOT attempt to install this
appliance in any other orientation. Doing so will result in
improper appliance operation and property damage, and could
result in serious personal injury or death.

6. Clean and ush system when reinstalling a appliance.
NOTE: When installing in a zero clearance location, it may
not be possible to read or view some product labeling. It is
recommended to make note of the appliance model and serial
number.
B. Leveling
In order for the condensate to properly ow out of the
collection system, the area where you locate the appliance
must be level. Location must also fully support the weight of
the lled appliance.
C. Clearances for Service Access
Failure to keep the appliance area clear and free of combustible
materials, liquids, and vapors can result in substantial property
damage, severe personal injury, or death.
The service life of the appliance’s exposed metallic surfaces,
such as the casing, as well as internal surfaces, such as the heat
exchanger, are directly inuenced by proximity to damp and
salty marine environments. In such areas higher concentration
levels of chlorides from sea spray coupled with relative humidity
can lead to degradation of appliance components. In these
environments, appliances must not be installed using direct
vent systems which draw outdoor air for combustion. Such
appliances must be installed using room air for combustion.
Indoor air will have a much lower relative humidity, and hence
potential corrosion will be minimized.
Failure of the appliance or components due to incorrect
operating conditions IS NOT covered by product warranty.
High heat sources (generating heat 100oF / 37oC or greater,
such as boiler ue pipes, space heaters, etc.) may damage
plastic components of the appliance as well as plastic vent pipe
materials. Such damages ARE NOT covered by warranty. It is
recommended to keep a minimum clearance of 8” from high
heat sources. Observe heat source manufacturer instructions,
as well as local, state, provincial, and national codes, laws,
regulations, and ordinances when installing this appliance and
related components near high heat sources.
Locate the appliance where any leakage from the relief valve,
related piping, tank, or connections will not result in damage to
surrounding areas or lower oors of the building. The appliance
should be located near a oor drain or installed in a drain pan.
Leakage damages ARE NOT covered by warranty.
4. Gas control system components must be protected from
dripping water during operation and service.
5. If the appliance is to replace an existing appliance, check for
and correct any existing system problems, such as:
• System leaks
• Location that could cause the system and appliance to
All appliances eventually leak. It is recommended to install
a catch pan beneath the appliance. This catch pan should be
sized with a maximum depth of 2”, and a minimum diameter
2” greater than the diameter of the appliance. The catch pan
should empty into an open drain line. This drain line should
be 3/4” ID minimum, piped to an open drain. Failure to follow
these instructions could result in property damage. Such
damages ARE NOT covered by product warranty.
The space must be provided with combustion / ventilation
air openings correctly sized for all other appliances located in
the same space as the appliance. The appliance cover must
be securely fastened to prevent the appliance from drawing
air from the appliance room. This is particularly important if
the appliance is in a room with other appliances. Failure to
comply with the above warnings could result in substantial
property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
LP-325 Rev. 4.4.17

The space must be provided with correctly sized combustion/
ventilation air openings for all other appliances located in the
space with the appliance. For power venting installations using
room air for combustion, refer to the venting section, this
manual, for descriptions of conned and unconned spaces. Do
not install the appliance in an attic. Failure to comply with these
warnings could result in substantial property damage, severe
personal injury, or death.
E. Exhaust Vent and Intake Pipe
The appliance is rated ANSI Z21.10.3 Category IV (pressurized
vent, likely to form condensate in the vent) and requires a special
vent system designed for pressurized venting.

in Figure 1 it might not be possible to service the appliance
without removing it from the space.
NOTE: A combustible door or removable panel is acceptable
front clearance.
D. Residential Garage and Closet Installations
Check with your local Authority Having Jurisdiction for
requirements when installing the appliance in a garage or
closet. Please read the entire manual before attempting
installation. Failure to properly take factors such as venting,
piping, condensate removal, and wiring into account before
installation could result in wasted time, money, and possible
property damage and personal injury.
Precautions
If the appliance is located in a residential garage, per ANSI
Z223.1:
• Install the appliance burner and ignition devices a

personal injury, or death.
The exhaust discharged by this appliance may be very hot.
Avoid touching or other direct contact with the exhaust gases of
the vent termination assembly. Doing so could result in severe
personal injury or death.
1. Direct Vent of Exhaust and Intake
If installing a direct vent option, combustion air must be drawn
from the outdoors directly into the appliance intake and exhaust
must terminate outdoors. There are three basic direct vent
options detailed in this manual: 1. Side Wall Venting, 2. Roof
Venting, and 3. Unbalanced Venting.
Be sure to locate the appliance such that the exhaust vent and
intake piping can be routed through the building and properly
terminated. Dierent vent terminals can be used to simplify and
eliminate multiple penetrations in the building structure (see
Optional Equipment in Venting Section). The exhaust vent and
intake piping lengths, routing, and termination methods must
all comply with the methods and limits given in the Venting
Section, this manual.
When installing a combustion air intake from outdoors, care
must be taken to utilize uncontaminated combustion air. To
prevent combustion air contamination, see Table 2.
2. Power Venting, Indoor Combustion Air in Conned or
Unconned Space
This appliance requires fresh, uncontaminated air for safe
operation and must be installed in a mechanical room where
LP-325 Rev. 4.4.17
Page 10

Unconned space is space with volume greater than 50 cubic
feet per 1,000 BTU/hr (4.8 cubic meters per kW) of the total
input rating of all fuel-burning appliances installed in that space.
Rooms connected directly to this space through openings not
furnished with doors are considered part of the space. See
Venting Section for details.
Conned space is space with volume less than 50 cubic feet per
1,000 BTU/hr (4.8 cubic meters per kW) of the total input rating
of all fuel-burning appliances installed in that space. Rooms
connected directly to this space through openings not furnished
with doors are considered part of the space.
When drawing combustion air from inside a conventionally
constructed building to a conned space, such space should be
provided with two permanent openings: one located 6” (15 cm)
below the space ceiling, the other 6” (15cm) above the space
oor. Each opening should have a free area of one square inch
per 1,000 BTU/hr (22cm2/kW) of the total input of all appliances
in the space, but not less than 100 square inches (645cm2).
If the conned space is within a building of tight construction, air
for combustion must be obtained from the outdoors as outlined
in the Venting section of this manual.
When drawing combustion air from the outside into the
mechanical room, care must be taken to provide adequate
freeze protection.
Failure to provide an adequate supply of fresh combustion air can
cause poisonous ue gases to enter the living space, resulting
in severe personal injury or death. To prevent combustion air
contamination, see Table 2.

H. Removing an Appliance from a Common Vent
System
Do not install the appliance into a common vent with any
other appliance. This will cause ue gas spillage or appliance
malfunction, resulting in possible substantial property
damage, severe personal injury, or death.
Failure to follow all instructions can result in ue gas spillage
and carbon monoxide emissions, causing severe personal
injury or death.
When removing an existing appliance, follow the steps below.
1. Seal any unused openings in the common venting system.
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and
horizontal pitch to determine if there is blockage, leakage,
corrosion, or other deciencies that could cause an unsafe
condition.
3. If practical, close all building doors, windows, and
doors between the space in which the appliance remains
connected to the common venting system and other spaces
in 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,
at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan.
Close all replace dampers.
4. Place in operation the appliance being inspected. Follow the
lighting instructions. Adjust the thermostat so the appliance
will operate continuously.
5. Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after 5
minutes of main burner operation. Use the ame of a match
or candle or smoke from a cigarette.
6. After it has been determined that each appliance remaining
connected to the common venting system properly vents
when tested as outlined, return doors, windows, exhaust fans,
replace dampers, and any other gas burning appliances to
their previous condition of use.
7. Any improper operation of the common venting system
should be corrected to conform to the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1. When resizing any portion of the common
venting system, the system should approach the minimum
size as determined using the appropriate tables in Appendix
G of ANSI Z223.1.

Figure 2 - CO Warning Label
I. Water Chemistry Requirements
Chemical imbalance of the water supply may aect eciency
and cause severe damage to the appliance and associated
equipment. Water quality must be professionally analyzed to
determine whether it is necessary to treat the water. Various
solutions are available to adjust water quality. Adverse water
quality will aect the reliability of the system. In addition,
operating temperatures above 135oF will accelerate the buildup of lime scale and possibly shorten appliance service life.
Failure of an appliance due to lime scale build-up, low pH, or
other chemical imbalance IS NOT covered by the warranty.
The water must be potable, free of corrosive chemicals, sand,
dirt, and other contaminates. It is up to the installer to ensure
the water does not contain corrosive chemicals or elements that
can damage the heat exchanger. Potable water is dened as
drinkable water supplied from utility or well water in compliance
with EPA secondary maximum contaminant levels (40 CFR Part
143.3). If the water contains contaminants higher than outlined
by the EPA, water treatment is recommended and additional,
more frequent maintenance may be required.
If you suspect that your water is contaminated in any way,
discontinue use of the appliance and contact an authorized
technician or licensed professional.
• Water pH between 6.5 and 8.5
• pH levels below 6.5 can cause an increase in the rate
of corrosion. pH of 8.5 or higher can potentially cause
lime scale build-up
• Maintain water pH between 6.5 and 8.5. Check with
litmus paper or have it chemically analyzed by a local
water treatment company.
• If the pH is not between 6.5 and 8.5, consult a local
water treatment company for solutions.
• Hardness less than 7 grains (120 mg/L) (Water
temperatures of 140oF and greater)
• Hardness levels above the required amounts can lead
LP-325 Rev. 4.4.17
Page 12
12
Front View
Top View
Side View
to lime scale build-up throughout the system. Water
below 5 grains/gallon (85 mg/L) may be over softened.
• Consult local water treatment companies for unusually
hard water areas (above the required amounts) or
for other treatment solutions if water is being over
softened (below 5 grains/gallon [85 mg/L]).
• Chloride concentration less than 100 ppm (mg/L)
• Do not ll appliance or operate with water containing
chlorides in excess of 100 ppm (mg/L).
• Using chlorinated fresh water should be acceptable as
levels are typically less than 5 ppm (mg/L).
• Do not connect the appliance to directly heat swimming
pool or spa water.
• Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) less than 500 ppm
(mg/L)
• Total dissolved solids are minerals, salts, metals, and
charged particles that are dissolved in water.
• The greater the amounts of TDS present, the higher
the corrosion potential due to increased conductivity
in the water.
• If using softened water to ll the appliance, it is
still possible to have high TDS. This water can be
corrosive. Consult local water treatment companies
for other treatment solutions to reduce this eect.
*NOTE: To promote appliance service life, it is strongly
recommended to follow the maintenance procedures in
this manual.

Part 4 - Piping
Failure to follow the instructions in this section WILL VOID the
warranty and may result in property damage, severe personal
injury, or death.
Dielectric unions or galvanized steel ttings must not be
used in a system with this appliance. Doing so WILL VOID the
warranty. Use only copper, brass, or stainless steel ttings.
Teon thread sealant must be used on all connections.
Plumbing of this appliance should only be done by a qualied,
licensed plumber in accordance with all local and national
plumbing codes or any applicable prevailing standards. The
appliance may be connected to an indirect storage tank to
supply domestic hot water. HTP oers 30/45/60/80/119 gallon
size indirect storage tanks in Stainless Steel or 50/80/119 in
Glass Lined construction. These indirect storage tanks will be
directly connected to the supply and return connections.

water line.
5. Install a pressure reducing valve on the cold feed makeup water line, (15 PSI nominal on the system return). Check
temperature and pressure gauge which should read minimum
pressure of 12 PSI.
6. Install a circulator as shown in piping details (this section).
Make sure the circulator is properly sized for the system and
friction loss.
7. Install an expansion tank on the system supply. Consult
manufacturer instructions for specic information relating to
expansion tank installation. Size the expansion tank for the
required system volume and capacity.
8. Install supply air vent to remove air when commissioning the
appliance.
9. The safety relief valve is supplied with the appliance, and must
be installed on the top ¾” NPT tting marked “T&P”. Pipe the
discharge of the safety relief valve to prevent injury in the event
of pressure relief. Discharge 6” above the drain. Provide piping
that is the same size as the safety relief valve outlet. Never block
the outlet of safety relief valve.
B. Circulator Pumps
Use two wrenches when tightening water piping at appliance.
Use one wrench to prevent the appliance return or supply
line from turning. Failure to prevent piping connections from
turning could cause damage to appliance components.
The building piping system must meet or exceed the piping
requirements in this manual.
The appliance control module uses temperature sensors
to provide both high limit protection and modulating
temperature control. The control module also provides low
water protection by sensing the water level in the appliance.
Some codes/jurisdictions may require additional external
controls.
This appliance is designed to function in a closed loop 15 PSI
System. A factory installed low water cut o will ensure that
you have adequate water in the system. We have also included
a T&P gauge which allows the user to monitor system pressure
and outlet temperature from the appliance.
Install the appliance so the gas ignition system components
are protected from water (dripping, spraying, etc.) allowing
clearance for basic service of circulator replacement, valves
and other parts. Observe minimum 1” clearance around all
hot water pipes not protected by non-combustible materials.
On an appliance installed above radiation level, some states
and local codes require a low water cut o device at the time
of installation. If the appliance supplies hot water to heating
coils in air handler units, ow control valves or other devices
must be installed to prevent gravity circulation of appliance
water in the coils during the cooling cycle. Chilled water
medium must be piped in parallel with the appliance.
Basic steps are listed below which will guide you through the
installation of the appliance.
1. Connect the system return marked “Return”.
2. Connect the system supply marked “Supply”.
3. Install purge and balance valve or shut o valve and drain on
system return to purge air out of each zone.
4. Install a back ow preventer on the cold feed make-up
DO NOT install automatic air vents on closed type expansion
tank systems. Air must remain in the system and return to the
tank to provide an air cushion. An automatic air vent would
cause air to leave the system, resulting in improper operation
of the expansion tank.
Sizing Space Heat System Piping
1. See piping details in this manual. Special attention must be
paid when connecting an indirect storage tank, as temperature
delivered to low temperature circuits may be higher than
desired. The use of thermostatic mixing valves is required to
protect these circuits.
To control the temperature of low temperature heating circuits
when using an indirect red water heater, a thermostatic
mixing valve is required. Failure to install a thermostatic mixing
valve when using an indirect red water heater could result in
damage the heating circuits. Such damage IS NOT covered by
warranty.
2. Size the piping and components in the space heating system
using recognized design methods.
C. Backow Preventer
Use a backow preventer specically designed for hydronic
installations. This valve should be installed on the cold water ll
supply line per local codes.
D. Expansion Tank
Expansion Tank and Make-Up Water
1. Ensure that the expansion tank is sized to correctly handle
appliance and system water volume and temperature. The
appliance volume is 55 gallons.
Undersized expansion tanks cause system water to be lost from
the relief valve, causing make-up water to be added. Eventual
appliance failure can result due to excessive make-up water
addition. SUCH FAILURE IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.
LP-325 Rev. 4.4.17
Page 14
14
2. The expansion tank must be located as shown in Applications,
this manual, or following recognized design methods. See
expansion tank manufacturer’s instructions for details.
3. Connect the expansion tank on the suction side of the
circulator. Always install the system ll connection at the same
point as the expansion tank connection to the system.
4. Most chilled water systems are piped using a closed type
expansion tank.
Failure to follow the instructions in this section WILL VOID the
warranty and may result in property damage, serious personal
injury, or death.
E. Relief Valve
Install supplied temperature and pressure relief valve. Connect
discharge piping to a safe disposal location, following the
guidelines on the next page. Replacement relief valves are
available. See parts list.
Overheated water and high pressures can cause water tank
explosion. A properly sized temperature and pressure relief
valve must be installed in the opening provided on the appliance.
Failure to install a properly sized temperature and pressure
relief valve could result in explosion and property damage,
serious injury, or death.
Do not thread a cap or plug into the relief valve or relief valve
line under any circumstances! Explosion and property damage,
serious injury, or death may result.
To avoid water damage or scalding due to relief valve operation:
• Discharge line must be connected to relief valve outlet
and run to a safe place of disposal. Terminate the
discharge line in a manner that will prevent possibility of
severe burns or property damage should the relief valve
discharge.
• Discharge line must be as short as possible and the same
size as the valve discharge connection throughout its
entire length.
• Discharge line must pitch downward from the valve
and terminate at least 6” above the oor drain, making
discharge clearly visible.
• The discharge line shall terminate plain, not threaded,
with a material serviceable for temperatures of 375oF or
greater.
• Do not pipe discharge to any location where freezing
could occur.
• No valve may be installed between the relief valve and
appliance or in the discharge line. Do not plug or place
any obstruction in the discharge line.
• Test the operation of the relief valve after lling and
pressurizing the system by lifting the lever. Make sure
the valve discharges freely. If the valve fails to operate
correctly, immediately replace with a new properly rated
relief valve.
• Test T&P valve at least once annually to ensure the
waterway is clear. If valve does not operate, turn the
appliance “o” and call a plumber immediately.
• Take care whenever operating relief valve to avoid
scalding injury or property damage.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE ABOVE GUIDELINES
COULD RESULT IN FAILURE OF RELIEF VALVE OPERATION,
RESULTING IN POSSIBILITY OF SUBSTANTIAL PROPERTY
DAMAGE, SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.
RE-INSPECTION OF T&P RELIEF VALVES: T&P valves
should be inspected AT LEAST ONCE EVERY THREE
YEARS, and replaced if necessary, by a licensed plumbing
contractor or qualied service technician to ensure that the
product has not been aected by corrosive water conditions
and to ensure that the valve and discharge line have not been
altered or tampered with illegally. Certain naturally occuring
conditions may corrode the valve and its components over
time, rendering the valve inoperative. Such conditions can
only be detected if the valve and its components are physically
removed and inspected. Do not attempt to conduct an inspection on your own. Contact your plumbing contractor
for a re-inspection to assure continued safety.
FAILURE TO RE-INSPECT THE T&P VALVE AS DIRECTED
COULD RESULT IN UNSAFE TEMPERATURE AND/OR
PRESSURE BUILD-UP WHICH CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY
DAMAGE, SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.
F. Zoning with Zone Valves
1. Connect appliance to system as shown in the Applications
diagrams. Properly size circulators for friction loss of zone
valves and piping for proper operation.
2. Connect DHW (domestic hot water) piping to indirect
storage water appliance as shown.
G. Zoning with Circulators
1. Connect appliance to system as shown in the Applications
diagrams. Properly size each zone circulator for friction loss of
each zone for proper operation.
2. Install a separate circulator for each zone.
3. Connect DHW piping to indirect storage water appliance as
shown.
H. Multiple Appliances
1. All piping shown is reverse return to assure balanced ow
through the connected appliances.
2. Connect DHW piping to indirect storage water appliance as
shown.
I. Indirect Water Heater Scalding
This appliance can deliver scalding water. Be careful whenever
using hot water to avoid scalding injury. Certain appliances
such as dishwashers and automatic clothes washers may
require increased water temperatures. By setting the
thermostat on this appliance to obtain the increased water
temperature required by these appliances you may create the
potential for scald injury.
To protect against injury, install the mixing valve included with
this appliance. This valve will reduce point of use discharge
temperatures by mixing cold and hot water in the branch
supply lines.
Table 3 details the relationship of water temperature and
time with regard to scald injury and may be used as a guide
in determining the safest water temperature for your
applications.

For installation that incorporates standing iron radiation and
systems with manual vents at high points, follow above section
and, starting with the nearest manual air vent, open until water
ows out. Then close vent. Repeat procedure, working your way
toward furthest air vent.
NOTE: It may be necessary to install a basket strainer in an older
system where larger amounts of sediment may be present.
Annual cleaning of strainer may be necessary.
Upon completion, make sure that the ll valve is in automatic
position and each zone balance and purge or shut o is in an
open position and zone valves are set for automatic operation.
ASSE 1017 or ASSE 1070 temperature limiting or mixing
valves do not eliminate the risk of scalding.
To avoid scalding:
• Set the appliance set point temperature as low as
possible.
• Feel water before bathing or showering.
• If thermostatic valves are required, use devices
specically designed for such purpose. Install these
devices in accordance with instructions provided by
the manufacturer.
Failure to install a temperature limiting or mixing valve and
follow these instructions could result in property damage,
severe personal injury, or death due to scalds.
J. Fill and Purge Heating System
The appliance must be full of water and the system fully
purged BEFORE powering the appliance. When lling the
appliance, open a hot water tap to release air in the tank and
piping. All air has been purged from the system when water
runs freely from the faucets.
Applying power to the appliance when it is not full of water
will damage the heat exchanger, and could result in property
damage, serious personal injury, or death. Such damages
ARE NOT covered by appliance warranty.
• Attach the hose to either balance or purge hose
connector or drain valve and run hose to nearest drain.
• Close the other side of the balance and purge valve or
the shut o valve after the drain.
• Open rst zone balance and purge or drain valve to let
water ow out the hose. If zone valves are used, open
the valves one at a time manually. (NOTE: You should
check valve manufacturer instruction prior to opening
valves manually, so as not to damage any valves.)
• Manually operate ll valve regulator. When water runs
out of the hose, while it’s connected to the balance and
purge valve or drain you will see a steady stream of
water (without bubbles). Close balance and purge valve
or drain to stop the water from owing. Disconnect the
hose and connect it to next zone to be purged.
• Repeat this procedure for additional zones (one at a
time).
Use only inhibited propylene glycol solutions which are FDA
RATED AS GRAS and specically formulated for hydronic
systems. Ethylene glycol is toxic and can attack gaskets and
seals used in hydronic systems. Failure to follow the instructions
in this section WILL VOID the warranty and may result in
property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
Glycol in hydronic
applications includes
inhibitors that prevent
it from attacking
metallic system
components. Make
certain that system
uid is checked for
the correct glycol
concentration and
inhibitor level.
The glycol solution
should be tested at
least once a year, or as
recommended by the
glycol manufacturer.
Anti-freeze solutions
expand more than
water. For example: A
50% by volume glycol
solution expands 4.8%
in volume during a temperature increase from 32 to 180oF, while
water expands 3% over the same temperature rise. Allowances
must be made for expansion in system design.
A 30% mixture of glycol results in a BTU output loss of 15% with
a 5% increase in head against the system circulator.
A 50% glycol mixture results in a BTU output loss of 30% with a
50% increase in head against the system circulator.
It is highly recommended that you carefully follow glycol
manufacturer recommended concentrations, expansion
requirements, and maintenance recommendations (pH additive
break down, inhibitor reduction, etc.) You must carefully gure
the additional friction loss in the system as well as the reduction
in heat transfer coecients.

Part 5 - Venting and Condensate Removal
The appliance must be vented as detailed in this section. Ensure
exhaust vent and intake piping complies with these instructions
regarding vent system. Inspect nished exhaust vent and intake
piping thoroughly to ensure all joints are well secured, airtight,
and comply with all applicable code requirements, as well as the
instructions provided in this manual. Failure to properly install
the vent system will result in severe personal injury or death.
A. General
This appliance is certied as a “Category IV” appliance and
requires a special venting system. The vent system will operate
with a positive pressure in the pipe. Exhaust gases must be
piped directly outdoors using the vent materials and rules
outlined in these instructions. Do not connect vent connectors
serving appliances vented by natural draft into any portion of
mechanical draft systems operating under positive pressure.
Follow the venting instructions carefully. Failure to do so will
result in substantial property damage, severe personal injury,
or death.
1. Installation should be made in accordance with the regulations
of the Authority Having Jurisdiction, local code authorities, and
utility companies which pertain to this type of water heating
equipment.
2. Install the venting system in accordance with these
instructions and with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA 54, CAN/CGA B149, and / or applicable provisions of local
building codes.
3. This appliance must be vented with materials, components,
and systems listed and approved for Category IV appliances.
Exhaust and intake are to be piped separately. This appliance
cannot share a common exhaust or intake with multiple
appliances. Failure to follow these instructions will result in
substantial property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
NOTE: To avoid contamination often contained in indoor air, it
is best to pipe all intake combustion air directly to the outdoors.
NOTE: If exhaust vent pipe system passes through an unheated
space such as an alcove or attic, the space must be heated.
Improper seating of vent pipe gaskets can cause eventual
gasket failure and exhaust gas leakage. Ensure the exhaust vent
pipe is properly beveled and seated before insertion into the
ue adapter. Failure to do so could result in property damage,
severe personal injury, or death.
Due to the extreme ammability of most glues, cements,
solvents, and primers used to join plastic exhaust vent and
intake pipes, explosive solvent vapors must be cleared from
all vent piping before start-up. Avoid using excess cement or
primer, as this may pool in the vent pipes. Vent assemblies
should be allowed to cure for a period of at least 8 hours before
powering a connected appliance. Failure to follow these
instructions will result in substantial property damage, severe
personal injury, or death. It is the installers’ responsibility to
understand the hazards associated with explosive solvents
and take the necessary precautions to avoid these risks.
CPVC, Polypropylene, or Stainless Steel pipe material MUST
be used for the rst 3 feet of the vent run if the exhaust vent
passes through an enclosed space greater than 6”, such
as a wall. The balance of the vent run can be installed with
standard Schedule 40 PVC pipe. Failure to comply with this
warning could result in property damage, severe personal
injury, or death.
Exhaust vent adaptors are not designed as load-bearing
devices, and must not be used to support exhaust vent piping.
All vent pipes must be properly connected, supported, and
the exhaust vent must be pitched a minimum of 1/4” per foot
back to the appliance to allow drainage of condensate. Failure
to properly support vent piping and follow the information
in this statement could result in product damage, severe
personal injury, or death.

E. Exhaust Vent and Intake Pipe Sizing
1. The exhaust vent and intake pipe size is 2” for 100 and
130kBTU models and 3” for 160 and 199kBTU models.
2. The maximum total equivalent length of 2” exhaust vent
and intake pipe should not exceed 85 feet. The maximum
total equivalent length of 3” exhaust vent and intake pipe
should not exceed 200 feet.
a. The equivalent length of elbows, tees, and other ttings
are listed in the Friction Loss Table.

Table 6 - *Friction loss for long radius elbow is 1 foot less. NOTE:
Consult Polypropylene venting instructions for friction loss and
pressure drop equivalents.
Equivalent Feet
2”3”4”
b. For example: If the exhaust vent has two 90o elbows and
10 feet of PVC pipe we will calculate:
Exhaust Vent Equivalent Length = (2x5) + 10 = 20 feet.
Further, if the intake pipe has two 90o elbows, one 45o
elbow, and 10 feet of PVC pipe, the following calculation
applies:
Intake Pipe Equivalent Length = (2x5) + 3 + 10 = 23 feet.
Finally, if a concentric kit is used we nd:
Total Equivalent Length = 20 + 23 + 3 = 46 feet.
The total equivalent length is 46 feet, well below the
maximum of 85 feet for 2” pipe.
c. Eort should be made to keep a minimum dierence in
equivalent length between the exhaust vent and intake
pipe.
3. The minimum total equivalent length is 16 feet.
Do not exceed the maximum lengths for vent pipes. Excessive
length could result in appliance shutdown and property
damage.
Failure to provide a minimum total vent length of 16
equivalent feet could result in property damage and improper
product operation.
F. Longer Vent Runs
The maximum total equivalent length can be extended
by increasing the diameter of both the exhaust vent and
intake pipes equally. However, the transitions should begin a
minimum of 15 equivalent feet from the appliance.
a. The maximum total equivalent length for increased
diameter vent pipes is 125 feet for 2” transitioning to 3”
pipe (this length includes the minimum 15 total equivalent
feet necessary for transition).
NOTE: 3” vent pipe can be increased in diameter, but total
equivalent length cannot be increased beyond 200 feet.
b. Transitions should always be made in vertical sections
of pipe to prevent the condensate from pooling in the vent
pipe.

G. Exhaust Vent and Intake Pipe Installation
All joints of positive pressure vent systems must be sealed
completely to prevent leakage of ue products into the living
space. Failure to do so could result in property damage, serious
injury, or death.
1. Use only solid PVC, CPVC, or stainless steel pipe or a
Polypropylene vent system approved for use with Category IV
appliances.
FOAM CORE PIPING IS NOT APPROVED FOR EXHAUST VENT
APPLICATIONS. Foam core piping may be used on air inlet
piping only.
2. Remove all burrs and debris from joints and ttings.
3. When using PVC or CPVC pipe, all joints must be properly
cleaned, primed, and cemented. Use only cement and primer
approved for use with the pipe material. Cement must conform
to ASTM D2564 for PVC and ASTM F493 for CPVC pipe. NOTE:
DO NOT CEMENT POLYPROPYLENE PIPE.
4. Ensure the vent is located where it will not be exposed to
prevailing winds.
5. In all roof venting applications, exhaust discharge must point
LP-325 Rev. 4.4.17
Page 22
22
away from the pitch of the roof.
6. If the exhaust vent is to be terminated in a walled o area
(such as a roof with a parapet wall), ensure the exhaust vent
terminates a minimum of 10’ from nearest wall and extends level
with or above the top of the wall. This will ensure ue gas does
does not get trapped and possibly recirculated into the intake air
pipe, which could contaminate the combustion air.
7. To prevent water leakage, install adequate roof ashing where
the pipe enters the roof.
8. Do not locate vent over public walkways, driveways, or
parking lots. Condensate could drip and freeze, resulting in a slip
hazard or damage to vehicles and machinery.
9. Due to potential moisture build-up, sidewall venting may not
be the preferred venting option. To save time and cost, carefully
consider venting installation and location.
10. Horizontal lengths of exhaust vent must slope back towards
the water heater not less than ¼” per foot to allow condensate
to drain from the vent pipe.
11. The exhaust vent must terminate where vapors cannot
make accidental contact with people or pets, or damage air
conditioners, shrubs, or other plants or objects.
12. DO NOT vent the water heater in a chimney ue serving a
separate appliance designed to burn solid fuel. The water heater
may only be vented in vacant chimneys. In vacant chimney
applications, install and seal a rain cap over existing chimney
openings.
13. All piping must be fully supported. Use pipe hangers at a
minimum of 4 foot intervals to prevent sagging of the pipe
where condensate may form.
14. Do not use the heater to support any piping.
15. A screened straight coupling is provided with the heater for
use as an outside exhaust termination.
16. A screened inlet air tee is provided with the heater to be used
as an outside intake termination.
17. Maximum Snow Level Determination: These installation
instructions reference snow levels in establishing a minimum
height for the installation of exhaust vent or air intake
terminations. Snow levels shall be determined as follows:
a. The installation location may, by ordinance, designate how
snow levels are calculated in that location; or
b. In the absence of specic ordinances, snow levels shall be
calculated from the average monthly maximum depth of snow
accumulation as indicated by the National Weather Service’s 10
year statistics for the installation location/geographical area.
In addition:
• Total length of vent piping shall not exceed the limits
specied in this manual.
• The vent piping for this direct vented appliance is approved
for zero clearance to combustible construction.
• The ue products coming from the exhaust vent will create
a large plume when the heater is in operation. Avoid
venting in areas that will aect neighboring buildings or be
considered objectionable.
• DO NOT locate exhaust vent or intake pipe in a parking
area where machinery may damage the pipe.
• DO NOT vent near sot vents, crawl space vents, or other
areas where condensate or vapor could create a nuisance
or hazard or cause property damage.
• DO NOT vent where condensate vapor could cause
damage or could be detrimental to the operation of
regulators, relief valve, or other equipment.
In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and as Required
by State and Local Codes:
The vented gas fueled appliance shall not be installed so its
combustion, ventilation, or dilution air is obtained from a
bedroom or bathroom.
Signage: Whenever any through-the-wall (horizontal or
sidewall) vent is installed less than seven feet above the
nished grade, a metal or plastic identication plate shall
be permanently mounted to the exterior of the building at a
minimum height of eight feet above grade directly in line with
the exhaust vent terminal. The sign shall read, in print no less
than 0.5 inches in size, “GAS VENT DIRECTLY BELOW. KEEP
CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUCTIONS”.
Marking of Exhaust Vent and Intake Pipe: Piping used for
ventilation, make-up, or combustion air intake shall be labeled
as follows:
a. Throughout the entire developed length:
i. Labels must be placed every ten feet for exposed/visible
piping; or
ii. Labels must be placed every three feet for concealed
piping.
b. At all changes of direction;
c. On each side of a penetration through a partition, wall or
ceiling; and
d. The labels shall be black lettering that:
i. Indicates that the piping is used for ventilation, make-up,
or combustion air intake, and
ii. The letters shall be sized equal to a minimum of the pipe
diameter. However, for piping with a diameter exceeding
two inches, said lettering does not need to be larger than
two inches.

H. Applications
1. Direct Vent Installation of Exhaust and Intake
If installing a direct vent option, combustion air must be drawn
from the outdoors directly into the appliance intake, and
exhaust must terminate outside. There are three basic direct
vent options detailed in this manual: 1. Side Wall Venting, 2.
Roof Venting, and 3. Unbalanced Venting.
Be sure to locate the appliance such that the exhaust vent
and intake pipe can be routed through the building and
properly terminated. Dierent vent terminals can be used to
simplify and eliminate multiple penetrations in the building
structure (see Optional Equipment in Venting Section). The
exhaust vent and intake pipe lengths, routing and termination
methods must all comply with the methods and limits given in
the Venting section of this manual.

always take precedence over manufacturer’s instructions.
Failure to check state and local codes before installing
through an existing opening could result in property damage
and add signicantly to installation costs.
If an existing venting system is converted for use with this
appliance, the installer must ensure that the existing venting
system is clean and free from particulate contamination that
could damage the appliance. Failure to do so could result in
property damage and appliance failure. Such failure IS NOT
covered under warranty.
Concentric Venting Through an Existing System
NOTE: The following instructions refer only to venting
through an existing vent system, and not to venting with
HTP’s optional concentric vent kits. Refer to Concentric Vent
Kit installation manual (LP-166) for further information on
venting with the optional concentric vent kits.
Concentric venting through an existing system must run
vertically through the roof. Use only the approved venting
materials specied in Table 4 for piping the system. All
instructions listed in this Venting section apply. See Figures
18-1 and 18-2 for venting demonstrations.
The upper and lower vent terminations as well as all joints in
the venting system must be properly sealed to ensure that all
combustion air is drawn properly and exhaust does not leak
from the system. Failure to properly seal the venting system
will result in property damage, serious personal injury, or
death.
Chase Venting Through an Existing System
When venting as a chase, follow all instructions included in this
Venting section, including those in the previous Concentric
Venting Through an Existing System section. See Figure 18-3
25
for chase venting demonstration.
3. Power Venting, Indoor Combustion Air in Conned or
Unconned Space
This appliance requires fresh, uncontaminated air for safe
operation and must be installed in a mechanical room where
there is adequate combustion and ventilating air. NOTE: To
prevent combustion air contamination, see Table 2.
Combustion air from the indoor space can be used if the space
has adequate area or when air is provided through a duct
or louver to supply sucient combustion air based on the
appliance input. Never obstruct the supply of combustion air to the appliance. If the appliance is installed in areas where
indoor air is contaminated (see Figure 19) it is imperative that
the appliance be installed as direct vent so that all combustion
air is taken directly from the outdoors into the appliance intake
connection.
Unconned space is space with volume greater than 50 cubic
feet per 1,000 Btu/hour (4.8 cubic meters per kW) of the total
input rating of all fuel-burning appliances installed in that space.
Rooms connected directly to this space, through openings not
furnished with doors, are considered part of the space.
Conned space is space with volume less than 50 cubic feet
per 1,000 Btu/hour (4.8 cubic meters per kW) of the total input
rating of all fuel-burning appliances installed in that space.
Rooms connected directly to this space, through openings not
furnished with doors, are considered part of the space.
When drawing combustion air from inside a conventionally
constructed building to a conned space, such space should be
provided with two permanent openings: one located 6” (15 cm)
below the space ceiling, the other 6” (15cm) above the space
oor. Each opening should have a free area of one square inch
per 1,000 Btu/hr (22cm2/kW) of the total input of all appliances
in the space, but not less than 100 square inches (645cm2).
If the conned space is within a building of tight construction, air
for combustion must be obtained from the outdoors as outlined
in the Venting section of this manual. See Figure 20.

I. Condensate Removal System
NOTE: Check with your local gas company to determine if
combustion condensate disposal is permitted in your area. In
the state of Massachusetts, condensate must be neutralized
before entering a drain.
This condensing high eciency appliance has a condensate
removal system. Condensate is water vapor derived from
combustion products, similar to that produced by an
automobile when it is initially started. It is very important that
the condensate line is sloped down away from the appliance
and to a suitable drain.
If the appliance condensate outlet is lower than the drain, you
must use a condensate removal pump (kit p/n 554200 available
from HTP). If required by local authorities, a condensate lter
of lime crystals, marble, or phosphate chips will neutralize
slightly acidic condensate. This can be installed in the eld and
purchased from HTP (p/n 7450P-212).
The condensate line must remain unobstructed. If allowed
to freeze in the line or obstructed in any other manner,
condensate can exit from the appliance tee, resulting
in potential water damage to property. When installing
a condensate pump, select one approved for use with
condensing appliances and furnaces. The condensate pump
should have an overow switch to prevent property damage
from spillage. Condensate from the appliance will be slightly
acidic (pH from 3.2 to 4.5). Install a neutralizing lter if
required by local codes.
installations that may encounter sustained freezing conditions,
the use of heat tape is recommended to avoid freezing of
the condensate line. It is also recommended to bush up the
condensate line size to 1” and terminate condensate discharge
as close to the unit as possible. Longer condensate runs are
more prone to freezing. Damages due to frozen or blocked
condensate lines ARE NOT covered by warranty.
4. Support of the condensate line may be necessary to avoid
blockage of the condensate ow.
Power to the optional condensate pump is continuous. When
the appliance is powered o the condensate pump will remain
on. It is important to remember to turn o the condensate
pump when powering down the appliance. Failure to do so
could result in property damage, severe personal injury, or
death.
Figure 15 - Condensate Piping
NOTES:
1. Condensate line must be pitched at least ¼” per foot to
properly drain. If this cannot be done, or a very long length
of condensate hose is used, increase the condensate line
to a minimum of 1” ID and place a tee in the line after the
condensate neutralizer to properly reduce vacuum lock in the
drain line.
2. PVC or CPVC pipe should be the only material used for
condensate line. Steel, brass, copper, and other metals will be
subject to corrosion or deterioration.
3. A frozen condensate line could result in a blocked vent
condition. It is very important to protect the condensate
line from freezing temperatures or any type of blockage. In

CONTROL
CAT3/CAT5 CONNECTION POINTS
Label all wires prior to disconnecting them when servicing the
appliance. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous
operation. Failure to follow these instructions may result in
property damage or personal injury.
A. Field Wiring
All connections made to the appliance in the eld are done on
the eld connection board located on the top left side of the
cabinet. Multiple knockout locations are available to route eld
wires into and out of the cabinet.
The appliance is capable of directly controlling 2 pumps when
in standard mode and 3 pumps when congured as a cascade
master appliance. When congured as a standard unit, each
pump output can provide a maximum of 3 amps at 120 volts.
If pumps require more than this amount of power, an external
contactor or motor starter is needed.
If the appliance is congured as a cascade master, the appliance
pump output is a dry contact output capable of switching 5
amps at 120 volts in addition to the system pump and DHW
pump outputs sourcing 3 amps each.
An alarm bell or light can be connected to the alarm connection
of the appliance. The alarm connection may be used to power a
120V device, and is rated 3 amps at 120 VAC.
The eld connection board has separate, clearly marked
terminal strips for line voltage and low voltage wiring. Special
jacks are provided for trouble-free cascade system wiring using
standard CAT3 or CAT5 patch cables.
B. Line Voltage Wiring for Standard Appliance
1. Connect the incoming power wiring to the line voltage
terminal strip in the eld connection board at terminals 120V,
Neutral, Ground. A line voltage fused disconnect switch may be
GND
Figure 16 - Standard Appliance Customer Connection Board Detail
C. Thermostat
1. Connect the room thermostat to the terminals marked 14
and 15 on the eld connection board. Any dry contact closure
across these terminals will cause the appliance to run. Take
caution to ensure neither of the terminals connects to the
ground.
2. Mount the thermostat on an inside wall as centrally to the
area being heated as possible, but away from drafts or heat
producing devices such as television sets that could inuence
the ability of the thermostat to measure room temperature.
3. If the thermostat is equipped with an anticipator and it is
LP-325 Rev. 4.4.17
Page 29
29
connected directly to the appliance, the anticipator should
be set at .1 amps. If the thermostat is connected to other
devices, the anticipator should be set to match the power
requirements of those devices. See the instruction manual of
connected devices for further information.
D. Outdoor Sensor (Optional)
1. If an HTP 7250P-319 outdoor sensor is not used in this
installation, move on.
2. Use a minimum 22 AWG wire for runs of 100 feet or less and
minimum 18 AWG wire for runs of up to 150 feet.
3. Mount the outdoor sensor on an exterior surface of the
building, preferably on the north side in an area that will not
be aected by direct sunlight and will be exposed to varying
weather conditions.
NOTE: Follow instructions provided with the sensor for
detailed mounting instructions.
4. When correctly mounted, connect sensor to terminals
marked 12 and 13.
E. Indirect Sensor (Optional)
1. If an indirect water heater is not used in the installation,
move on.
2. The appliance will operate an indirect red water heater
with either a thermostat type aquastat or an HTP 7250P-325
tank sensor installed in the water heater. When a tank sensor
is used, the appliance control will automatically detect its
presence and a demand for heat from the water heater will
be generated when the tank temperature falls below the user
set point by more than the user selectable oset. Demand will
continue until the indirect water heater temperature is above
the set point.
Connect the indirect sensor or mechanical aquastat to the
terminals marked 10 and 11 on the eld connection board.
17 (0-10 VOLT –) in the electrical junction box caution should be
used to ensure that the 16 (0-10 VOLT +) connection does not
become connected to ground.
G. UL353 Low Water Cut-O Kit (Optional)
1. If an HTP 7450P-255 UL353 Low Water Cut-O (LWCO) Kit is
not used, move on to Section I.
2. The control box of the kit should be mounted to the left side of
the appliance near the low water cut-o probe, which is located
near the outlet nipple of the appliance.
3. Follow the complete instructions included in the kit for proper
installation.
H. Wiring of an Appliance Alarm (Optional)
An alarm bell or light can be connected to the alarm connection
of the appliance. In the event of an alarm, the alarm connection
may be used to power a 120V device. The alarm connections are
rated 3 amps at 120 VAC. Connect to terminal 1 (HOT), 2 (NEUT),
and 3 (GND).
To control the temperature of low temperature heating circuits
when using an indirect red water heater, a thermostatic
mixing valve is required. Failure to install a thermostatic
mixing valve when using an indirect red water heater could
result in damage the heating circuits. Such damage IS NOT
covered by warranty.
F. Optional 0-10 Volt Building Control Signal
1. If a 0-10 volt building management system is not used in the
installation, move on.
2. A signal from a building management system may be
connected to the appliance to enable remote control. This
signal should be a 0-10 volt positive-going DC signal.
3. When this input is enabled using the installer menu, a
building control system can be used to control either the
set point temperature or the heat output of the appliance.
The control interprets the 0-10 volt signal as follows; when
the signal is between 0 and 1.5 volts, the appliance will be in
standby mode, not ring. When the signal rises above 1.5 volts,
a demand for heat is started. As the signal continues to rise
towards its maximum of 10 volts, the appliance will increase
either its set point temperature or ring rate depending on
the setting of function 17 in the installer menu. See Part 10
for details on the setting of functions 16 and 17 for this option.
4. Connect a building management system or other auxiliary
control signal to the terminals marked 16 (0-10 VOLT +) and
LP-325 Rev. 4.4.17
Page 30

I. Wiring of the Cascade System Communication Bus
1. Use standard CAT3 or CAT5 computer network
patch cables to connect the communication
bus to each of the appliances. These cables are
readily available at any oce supply, computer,
electronic, department or discount home
supply store in varying lengths. If you possess
the skills you can also construct custom length
cables.
2. It is recommended to use the shortest length
cable that will reach between the appliances
and create a neat installation. Do not run
unprotected cables across the oor where they
may become wet or damaged. Avoid running
communication cables parallel and close to
or against high voltage (120 volt or greater)
wiring. HTP recommends the maximum length
of communication bus cables not exceed 200
feet.
3. Route the communication cables through one of the knockouts
in the cabinet.
4. Connect the appliances in a daisy chain conguration. It is best
to wire the appliances using the shortest wire runs rather than
trying to wire them in the order that they are addressed. The
communication bus jacks on the customer connection panel are
interchangeable so you can use either one or both in any order
to connect the cable. If you have connected the appliances to
each other properly, two of the appliances will have single open
connection ports.
J. Cascade Master Pump and Sensor Wiring
1. Connect the system pump hot wire to the terminal marked 1.
2. Connect the system pump neutral to the terminal 2 and the
pump ground wire to terminal 3.
3. Connect a jumper wire from the 120 VOLT terminal to terminal
9.
4. Connect the appliance pump to the terminals marked 8, 2,
and 3.
5. Connect the system pipe sensor to the terminals marked 10
and 11.
6. Connect the outdoor sensor (if used) to the terminals marked
12 and 13.
7. Connect the signal to start the system to the terminals marked
14 and 15.
NOTE: This signal can come from a room thermostat or a dry
contact closure. No power of any voltage should be fed into
either of these terminals.
Figure 17 - Cascade Wiring
K. Cascade Follower Pump and Sensor Wiring
1. Connect the appliance pump to the terminals labeled 8, 2,
and 3. If you are using an indirect red water tank connected
directly to the follower appliance connect the pump for it to
the 4, 5, and 6 terminals.
2. An alarm bell or light can be connected to the alarm
contacts of the follower appliance. In the event of an alarm,
the normally open alarm contact may be used to turn a device
on. The normally closed alarm contact may be used to turn a
device o if the appliance goes into lockout mode. The alarm
contacts are rated 3 amps at 120 VAC.
3. To connect an alarm device, connect the power for the
device to terminal 1. Connect the neutral or return of the alarm
device to the neutral terminal on the customer connection
board.
NOTE: In a cascade system the alarm output of the appliance
addressed as #1 will also be active if the master appliance has
a lockout condition. The alarm output of appliances addressed
as 2-7 will only activate an alarm if a lockout condition occurs
on that specic appliance.

Part 7 - Gas Connections
Failure to follow all precautions could result in re, explosion,
severe injury, or death.
Ensure the gas on which the appliance will operate is the
same type specied on the rating plate. Failure to do so could
result in appliance malfunction, property damage, personal
injury, or death.
The gas supply shall have a maximum inlet pressure of less
than 14” water column (350 mm), ½ pound pressure (3.5
kPa), and a minimum of 3.5” water column. The entire piping
system, gas meter and regulator must be sized properly to
prevent pressure drop greater than 0.5” WC as stated in the
National Fuel Gas Code. This information is listed on the rating
plate.
It is very important that you are connected to the type of gas
as noted on the rating plate: “LP” for liqueed petroleum,
propane gas, or “Nat” for natural or city gas. All gas
connections must be approved by the local gas supplier or
utility, in addition to the governing authority, prior to turning
the gas supply on.
Do not remove the adaptor in Figure 28! It is mandatory that
this tting is used for connection to a eld fabricated drip leg
per the National Fuel Gas Code. You must ensure that the
entire gas line to the connection at the appliance is no smaller
than 3/4”.
Once all inspections have been performed, the piping must
be leak tested. If the leak test requirement is a higher test
pressure than the maximum gas inlet pressure, you must
isolate the appliance from the gas line to continue leak testing.
To do this, you must turn o the factory and eld-installed gas
cocks. This will minimize the possibility of damaging the gas
valve. Failure to do so may damage the gas valve. In the event
the gas valve is exposed to a pressure greater than ½ PSI, 14”
water column, the gas valve must be replaced. Never use an
open ame (match, lighter, etc.) to check gas connections.
UL recognized fuel gas detectors are recommended in
all enclosed propane and natural gas applications where
there is a potential for an explosive mixture of fuel gas to
accumulate. The installation of these detectors should
be made in accordance with the detector manufacturer’s
recommendations, and/or local laws. Failure to install fuel gas
detectors in these applications could result in re, explosion,
property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
A. Gas Piping
Run the gas supply line in accordance with all applicable
codes. Locate and install manual shuto valves in accordance
with local and state requirements.
33
Support gas supply piping with hangers, not by the appliance
or its accessories. The appliance gas valve and blower will not
support the weight of the piping. Make sure the gas piping is
protected from physical damage and freezing, where required.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in gas leakage,
and result in re, explosion, property damage, severe personal
injury, or death.
Do not use Teon tape on gas line pipe thread. Use a pipe
compound rated for use with natural and propane gases. Apply
sparingly on male pipe ends, leaving the two end threads bare.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in gas leakage,
and result in re, explosion, property damage, severe personal
injury, or death.
Figure 20 - Gas Connection
B. Gas Table
Refer to the table below to size the supply piping to minimize
pressure drop between meter or regulator and unit.
Maximum capacity of pipe in cubic feet of gas per hour for gas
pressures of .5 psi or less and a pressure drop of .3 inch water
column.
It is recommended that a soapy solution be used to detect leaks.
Bubbles will appear on the pipe to indicate a leak is present.
The gas piping must be sized for proper ow and length of pipe
to avoid excessive pressure drop. Both the gas meter and the
gas regulator must be properly sized for the total gas load. If
you experience a pressure drop greater than 1” WC, the meter,
regulator or gas line is undersized or in need of service. You can
attach a manometer to the incoming gas drip leg by removing
the cap. The gas pressure must remain between 3.5” WC and
14” WC during stand-by (static) mode and while in operating
(dynamic) mode at full output.
If an in-line regulator is used, it must be a minimum of 10
feet from the appliance. It is very important that the gas line
is properly purged by the gas supplier or utility. Failure to
properly purge the lines or improper line sizing will result in
ignition failure. This problem is especially noticeable in NEW
LP installations and also in empty tank situations. This can also
occur when a utility company shuts o service to an area to
provide maintenance to their lines. The gas valve must not be
replaced with a conventional gas valve under any circumstances.
As an additional safety feature, the gas valve in this appliance
has a anged connection to the swirl plate and blower.
Do not do a gas conversion on this appliance without an ocially
approved conversion kit and instructions supplied by HTP.
Failure to use a conversion kit when converting the appliance to
re on Natural or Propane gas will result in extremely dangerous
burner operation, leading to re, explosion, severe personal
injury, or death.
Strain on the gas valve and ttings may result in vibration,
premature component failure and gas leakage, and result in re,
explosion, property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
Adjustments to the throttle screw or oset may only be made
by a qualied gas technician using a calibrated combustion
analyzer capable of measuring CO2 and CO. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in re, explosion, property damage,
severe personal injury, or death.

Part 8 - Start-Up Preparation
Thoroughly clean and ush any system that has used glycol
before installing the appliance. Provide the customer with a
material safety data sheet (MSDS) on the uid used.
A. Check / Control Water Chemistry
Chemical imbalance of your water can cause severe damage
to your appliance and associated equipment, and may also
aect eciency. You may have to have your water quality
professionally analyzed to determine whether you need
to install a water softener. It is important that the water
chemistry on both the domestic hot water and central
heating sides are checked before installing the appliance, as
water quality will aect the reliability of the system. Outlined
below are those water quality parameters which need to be
met in order for the system to operate eciently for many
years. Failure of a heat exchanger due to lime scale build-up
on the heating surface, low pH or other imbalance IS NOT
covered by the warranty.
To assure extended service life, it is recommended to test
water quality prior to installation. Listed below are some
guidelines.
35
Clean system to remove sediment*
1. You must thoroughly ush the system (without appliance
connected) to remove sediment. The high-eciency heat
exchanger can be damaged by buildup or corrosion due to
sediment.
2. For zoned systems, ush each zone separately through a
purge valve. (If purge valves and isolation valves are not already
installed, install them to properly clean the system.)
3. Flush system until water runs clean and you are sure piping is
free of sediment.
*NOTE: It is recommended you clean heat exchanger at
least once a year to prevent lime scale buildup. Follow the
maintenance procedure to clean the heat exchanger in the
Maintenance Section of this manual.
Test/replace freeze protection uid
1. For systems using freeze protection uids, follow uid
manufacturer’s instructions to verify inhibitor level and that
other uid characteristics are satisfactory.
2. Freeze protection uid must be replaced periodically due to
degradation of inhibitors over time. Follow all uid manufacturer
instructions.
NOTE: Appliance failure due to improper water chemistry is
not covered by warranty.
B. Check for Gas Leaks
Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds
in the appliance system. Damage to elastomer seals and
gaskets in the system could occur, resulting in substantial
property damage.
Water pH between 6.5 and 8.5
1. Maintain appliance water pH between 6.5 and 8.5. Check
with litmus paper or have it chemically analyzed by a water
treatment company.
2. If the pH diers from above, consult local water treatment
company for treatment needed.
Hardness less than 7 grains (120 mg/L)
Consult local water treatment companies for unusually hard
water areas (above 7 grains hardness).
Chloride concentration less than 100 ppm (mg/L)
1. Using chlorinated fresh water should be acceptable since
drinking water chloride levels are typically less than 5 ppm.
2. Do not connect the appliance to directly heat a swimming
pool or spa water.
3. Do not ll appliance or operate with water containing
chloride in excess of 100 ppm.
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) less than 500 ppm (mg/L)
1. The greater the amounts of TDS present, the higher the
corrosion potential due to increased conductivity in the water.
2. If using softened water to ll the appliance, it is still possible
to have high TDS. This water can be corrosive. Consult local
water treatment companies for other treatment solutions to
reduce this eect.
Hardness: Less than 7 grains (120 mg/L)
Chloride levels: Less than 100 ppm (mg/L)
pH levels: 6.5 - 8.5
TDS: 500 ppm / mg/L
Before starting the appliance, and during initial operation, smell
near the oor and around the appliance for gas odorant or any
unusual odor. Remove appliance front door and smell interior of
appliance enclosure. Do not proceed with startup if there is any
indication of a gas leak. Repair any leaks at once.
PROPANE ONLY – The propane supplier mixes an odorant with
the propane to make its presence detectable. In some instances
the odorant can fade, and the gas may no longer have an odor.
Before startup (and periodically thereafter), have the propane
supplier verify the correct odorant level in the gas.
C. Freeze Protection (When Used)
NEVER use automotive or standard glycol antifreeze. Do
not use ethylene glycol made for hydronic systems. Use only
freeze-protection uids certied by uid manufacturer as
suitable for use with stainless steel boilers, veried in the uid
manufacturer’s literature. Thoroughly clean and ush any
system that has used glycol before installing the new appliance.
Provide the appliance owner with a material safety data sheet
(MSDS) on the uid used.
1. Determine the freeze protection uid quantity using total
system water content following the uid manufacturer’s
instructions. Remember to include expansion tank water
content.
2. Local codes may require back ow preventer or actual
disconnect from city water supply.
3. When using freeze protection uid with automatic ll, install
a water meter to monitor water makeup. Freeze protection uid
may leak before the water begins to leak, causing concentration
to drop, reducing the freeze protection level.
LP-325 Rev. 4.4.17
Page 36
36
Test / Replace Freeze Protection Fluid
1. Follow uid manufacturer instructions to verify inhibitor level
and other uid characteristics are satisfactory.
2. Freeze protection uid must be replaced periodically due to
degradation of inhibitors over time. Follow all uid manufacturer
instructions.
D. Fill and Test Water System
Ensure the appliance is full of water before ring the burner.
Failure to do so will damage the appliance. Such damage IS
NOT covered by warranty, and could result in property damage,
severe personal injury, or death.
1. Fill the system only after ensuring water chemistry meets the
requirements listed in this manual.
2. Close the manual and automatic air vents and appliance drain
valve.
3. Fill to the correct system pressure. Correct pressure will vary
with each application.
a. Typical cold water ll pressure for a residential system is 12
psi.
b. Pressure will rise when appliance is turned on and system
water temperature increases. Operating pressure must never
exceed the relief valve pressure setting.
4. At initial ll and during appliance startup and testing, check
system thoroughly for leaks. Repair all leaks before proceeding
further.
Eliminate all system leaks. Continual fresh make-up water
will reduce appliance life. Minerals can build up in the heat
exchanger, reducing heat transfer, overheating the heat
exchanger and causing heat exchanger failure.
5. The system may have residual substances that could aect
water chemistry. After the system has been lled and leak
tested, verify that water pH and chloride concentrations are
acceptable by sample testing.
E. Purge Air from the Hydronic System
It is important to purge the system of air to avoid damage to
the appliance.
IMPORTANT! While commissioning the system, the air vent
on top of the appliance must remain fully open to allow the
appliance to properly ll. Failure to keep the air vent open could
lead to improper appliance and system operation.
1. Connect a hose to the purge valve and route hose to an area
where water can drain and be seen.
2. Close the appliance or system isolation valve between the
purge valve and ll connection to the system.
3. Close zone isolation valves.
4. Open quick-ll valve on cold water makeup line.
5. Open purge valve.
6. One zone at a time, open the isolation valves. Allow water
to run through the zone, pushing out the air. Run until no
noticeable air ow is present. Close the zone isolation valves and
proceed with the next zone. Follow this procedure until all zones
are purged.
7. Rell to correct pressure.
F. Check Thermostat Circuit(s)
1. Disconnect the two external wires connected to the appliance
thermostat terminals (low voltage terminal strip).
2. Connect a voltmeter across these two incoming wires with
power applied to thermostat circuits. Close each thermostat,
zone valve and relay in the external circuit one at a time and
check the voltmeter reading across the incoming wires.
3. There should NEVER be a voltage reading.
4. If a voltage does occur under any condition, check and correct
the external wiring. (This is a common problem when using
3-wire zone valves).
5. Once the external thermostat circuit wiring is checked and
corrected if necessary, reconnect the external thermostat circuit
wires to appliance low voltage terminal strip.
G. Final Checks Before Starting Appliance
1. Read Startup Procedures within this manual for proper steps
to start appliance. (See Startup Report to record steps for future
reference).
2. Verify appliance and system are full of water and all system
components are correctly set for operation.
3. Fill condensate trap with water.
4. Verify electrical connections are correct and securely attached.
5. Inspect exhaust vent and intake piping for signs of deterioration
from corrosion, physical damage or sagging. Verify exhaust vent
and intake piping are intact and correctly installed per Venting
section and local code.
H. Condensate Removal
1. The appliance is a high eciency condensing appliance.
Therefore, the unit has a condensate drain. Condensate uid
is nothing more than water vapor, derived from combustion
products, similar to that produced by an automobile when it is
initially started.
Condensation is slightly acidic (typically with a pH of 3 to 5)
and must be piped with the correct materials. Never pipe the
condensate using steel, copper, brass or other materials that will
be subject to corrosion. Plastic PVC or CPVC pipe are the only
approved materials.
A condensate neutralizer, if required by local authorities, can be
made up of lime crystals, marble or phosphate chips that will
neutralize the condensate. This may be done by the installer or
you may purchase a condensate neutralizer from HTP (7450P-
212).
2. The appliance is equipped with a ¾ female socket weld
tting connection that must be piped to a local drain. It is very
important that the condensate line is sloped downward away
from the appliance to a suitable inside drain. If the condensate
outlet on the appliance is lower than the drain, you must use
a condensate removal pump, available from HTP (554200).
This pump is equipped with two leads that can be connected
to an alarm or another type of warning device to alert the user
of a condensate overow, which, if not corrected, could cause
property damage.
3. If a long horizontal run is used, it may be necessary to create
a vent in the horizontal run to prevent a vacuum lock in the
condensate line.
4. Do not expose the condensate to freezing temperatures.
5. It is very important you support the condensation line to
assure proper drainage.
LP-325 Rev. 4.4.17

3. Follower Appliances
NOTE: Read the notes below before programming follower
appliances.
• The appliance addressed as 1 will share its alarm output
with the Master Appliance.
• If one of the follower appliances has an indirect red
water appliance connected to it, the address of this
appliance must be 2 or greater.
• It is recommended but not necessary to address
appliances in the order that they are wired.
• No two appliances can have the same address.
• It is not required to use all consecutive address numbers.
Example: In a 2
appliance system
with an indirect
tank connected to
the follower, the
follower address
could be 2 (address
1 not used).
4. To program follower
appliance(s):
a. Make sure there is no
demand for heat being
supplied to the Master
Appliance.
b. Apply power to the
follower appliance you
are working on.
c. Enter the installer

instructions in Part 10
of this manual.
d. Set parameter 15 to 1 for the desired appliance address
after reading the notes above.
e. Set parameter 23 to 1 for cascade operation.
f. Exit the Installer Menu.
C. Adjusting the Setpoint
Before you change the temperature from the factory setting of
180oF, make sure that none of the thermostats are calling for
heat. The controller will not memorize a program setting while
in a heating cycle.
To access and scroll through additional setting options, press
{S3}.
1. Press {S3} once to access |C|, Appliance Temperature Set
Point. To adjust the temperature of the appliance, simply press
in the {S3} key for three seconds until you see a ashing (C) then
an alternating value of (180). This number is the factory set point
of 180oF.
To change the temperature, push either {S1} or {S2} on the
display. The {S1} button decreases and {S2} increases the set
point temperature. The set point temperature can be set as low
as 50oF or as high 185oF. Changes are directly stored and the
display returns to normal mode after one minute.
2. Press {S3} a second time. The appliance will now display |Ch|
and an alternating value of 15. This is the Appliance Dierential
LP-325 Rev. 4.4.17

Set Point. This function allows the installer to adjust the
activation of the burner based on the dierential temperature
setting of the appliance. The burner will not start until the outlet
water temperature reaches a temperature equal to the setting
for the appliance, minus the dierential.
EXAMPLE: The appliance is set to heat at 180°F and the
dierential is set at 15°F. The burner will not start until the outlet
temperature of the system reaches 164°F (180° – 15° = 165°).
To adjust, press either {S1} (Decrease Value) or {S2} (Increase
Value). Ranges 5° F to 30° F.
3. Press {S3} a third time and you will see the Indirect Temperature
Set Point |de| and an alternating value of 119. NOTE: Only in use
if using an indirect storage tank. Range 95 – 180. To adjust, press
either {S1} (Decrease Value) or {S2} (Increase Value).
4. Press {S3} a fourth time to access |dh|, the Indirect Dierential
Set Point. This function allows the installer to adjust the
activation of the DHW call based on the dierential temperature
setting for the indirect tank. The pump will not start until the
indirect water temperature reaches a temperature equal to the
setting for the indirect, minus the indirect dierential. Range 1
– 18. Default 7.
EXAMPLE: The indirect is set to heat at 130oF and the dierential
is set to 10oF. The DHW pump will not start until the outlet
temperature of the system reaches 119oF (130 – 10 = 120).

Part 11 - Troubleshooting
A. Error and Fault Codes
An error or fault code may occur in the appliance. Fault codes
lead to a lock out condition of the controller, which will need to
be manually reset by pressing the {S4} button.
B. Appliance Error
These temporary error codes help the installer correct a problem
before the appliance goes into a lock out fault condition, which
will require a manual reset.
1. When an error condition occurs the controller will display an
error code on the display module.
2. These error codes and several suggested corrective actions
are included in the Table 16.
C. Appliance Fault
1. When a lockout fault condition occurs the controller will
illuminate the red “fault” indication light and display a fault code
(Example: |F00|) on the display module.
2. Note the fault code and refer to Table 16 for an explanation of
the code along with several suggestions for corrective actions.
3. Press {S4} to clear the fault and resume operation. Be sure to
observe the operation of the unit to prevent a recurrence of the
fault.
When servicing or replacing components that are in direct
contact with appliance water, be certain that:
• There is no pressure in the appliance. (Pull the release
on the relief valve. Do not depend on the pressure gauge
reading.
• The appliance water is not hot.
• The electrical power is disconnected.
• The gas is shut o.
Failure to make these checks could result in substantial property
damage, serious personal injury, or death.
LP-325 Rev. 4.4.17

If overheating occurs or the gas supply fails to shut o, do not
turn o electrical power to the circulating pump. This may
aggravate the problem and increase the likelihood of appliance
damage. Instead, shut o the gas supply to the appliance at
the gas service valve. Failure to do so may result in property
damage, personal injury, or death.
DO NOT USE THIS APPLIANCE IF ANY PART HAS BEEN
SUBMERGED IN WATER. Immediately call a qualied service
Label all wires prior to disconnecting them when servicing the
appliance. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous
operation. Failure to follow these instructions may result in
property damage or personal injury.

the dew point, condensation will form on the inside of the
appliance cabinet and cause some internal sheet metal
components to rust.
technician. The appliance MUST BE replaced if it has been
submerged. Attempting to operate an appliance that has been
submerged could create numerous harmful conditions, such as
a potential gas leakage causing a re and/or explosion, or the
release of mold, bacteria, or other harmful particulates into the
air. Operating a previously submerged appliance could result in
property damage, severe personal injury, or death.

Part 12 - Maintenance
In unusually dirty or dusty conditions, care must be taken to
keep appliance cabinet door in place at all times. Failure to do
so VOIDS the warranty.
Allowing the appliance to operate with a dirty combustion
chamber will hurt operation. Failure to clean the heat exchanger
as needed by the installation location could result in appliance
failure, property damage, personal injury, or death. Such
product failures ARE NOT covered under warranty.
The appliance requires minimal periodic maintenance under
normal conditions. However, in unusually dirty or dusty
conditions, periodic vacuuming of the cover to maintain visibility
of the display and indicators is recommended.
Periodic maintenance should be performed once a year by a
qualied service technician to assure that all the equipment
is operating safely and eciently. The owner should make
necessary arrangements with a qualied heating contractor
for periodic maintenance of the appliance. Installer must also
inform the owner that the lack of proper care and maintenance
of the appliance may result in a hazardous condition.
It is extremely important that whenever work is performed on
the plumbing system that either:
• The appliance is powered o, or,
• The appliance is valved o and isolated from the plumbing
system.
Failure to take these measures could result in a dry-ring
condition.
The appliance must be full of water and the system fully purged
BEFORE powering the appliance. Performing any work in the
plumbing system without either powering o the appliance or
isolating the appliance through the use of shut-o valves could
result in a condition referred to as “dry-ring”. Dry-ring the
appliance will damage the heat exchanger, and could result
in property damage, serious personal injury, or death. Such
damages ARE NOT covered by appliance warranty.
Part 13 - Shutdown
A. Shutdown Procedure
If the burner is not operating, disconnect the electrical supply.
If the burner is operating, lower the set point value to 70oF
and wait for the burner to shut o. Continue to wait for the
combustion blower to stop, so all latent combustion gases
are purged from the system. This should take a maximum of
40 to 90 seconds. After combustion gases are purged turn o
electrical power to the appliance.
B. Vacation Procedure
If there is danger of freezing, change the set point to 70oF. DO
NOT turn o electrical power. If there is no danger of freezing,
follow “Shutdown Procedure”.
C. Failure to Operate
Should the burner fail to light, the control will perform two
more ignition trials prior to entering a lockout state. Note that
each subsequent ignition trial will not occur immediately. After
a failed ignition trial, the blower must run for approximately
10 seconds to purge the system. Therefore, a time period of
approximately 40 to 90 seconds will expire between each
ignition trial.
If the burner lights during any one of these three ignition
trials, normal operation will resume. If the burner lights, but
goes o in about 4 seconds, check the polarity of the wiring.
See electrical connection section of this manual.
If the burner does not light after the third ignition trial, the
control will enter a lockout state. This lockout state indicates
that a problem exists with the appliance, the controls, or the
gas supply. Under such circumstances, a qualied service
technician should be contacted immediately to properly
service the appliance and correct the problem.
If a technician is not available, pressing the {S4} button will
remove the lockout state so additional trials for ignition can
be performed. The unit will try to relight once every 6 minutes.
D. Important Notice
It is extremely important that whenever work is performed on
the plumbing system that either:
• The appliance is powered o, or,
• The appliance is valved o and isolated from the
plumbing system.
Failure to take these measures could result in a dry-ring
condition.

In unusually dirty or dusty conditions, care must be taken to
keep appliance cabinet door in place at all times. Failure to do
so VOIDS the warranty.
The appliance requires minimal periodic maintenance under
normal conditions. However, in unusually dirty or dusty
conditions, periodic vacuuming of the cover to maintain
visibility of the display and indicators is recommended.
Periodic maintenance should be performed once a year by a
qualied service technician to assure that all the equipment
is operating safely and eciently. The owner should make
necessary arrangements with a qualied heating contractor
for periodic maintenance of the appliance. Installer must also
inform the owner that the lack of proper care and maintenance
of the appliance may result in a hazardous condition.
When servicing or replacing any components of this appliance
be certain that:
• The gas is o.
• All electrical power is disconnected.
In addition, when servicing or replacing components of this
