INSTALLATION
GENERAL
The PB150 hot water steel boilers are high quality pellet/corn fired heating units. The
installation of the unit shall be in accordance with the regulations of the authorities
having jurisdiction.
FREIGHT CLAIMS
All units should be inspected for damage upon arrival. Concealed damage claims
should, be filed immediately against the carrier by the consignee. The carrier is
responsible for taking prompt action on all c laims.
SIZING
A complete heat loss calculation of the structure is necessary to choose the proper
size unit to install. The boiler should be sized to within 25% of the actual calculated
heat loss of the structure. Over sizing will result in short cycling and inefficient
operation. The PB150 boilers have large water content allowing for ample domestic
hot water.
Replacement boiler should not be sized from the firing rate of the old boiler. A DOE
sponsored study indicates 65% of the heating units in U.S. homes are substantially
oversized.
BOILER LOCATION
Boiler to be installed on a non-combustible heat resistant surface in a liquid
containment pan attached to a drain in a level position with clearances in accordance
with NFPA 31 Table 4-1 Form IL
STANDARD CLEARANCES
Sides 6” 152mm
Rear 6” 152mm
Chimney Connector 18” 460mm
Reduced clearance installations shall comply with NFPA 31 Table 4-2
Appendix B.
To move the unit, push against the flue box or skids. Pushing or pulling the jacket or
burner will result in damage.
Be sure to level the unit by inserting shims under the base.
AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION
The unit must be installed where provision exists for combustion and ventilation air.
Ordinarily, provisions may be furnished by the following methods:
UTILITY ROOM
In buildings of tight construction, including most modern homes, you should provide
an opening, connecting to a well-ventilated attic, crawl space or directly with the
outdoors. The opening should have a minimum free area of 1 square inch per 1,000
BTU per hour of total input for all appliances in the enclosure and should terminate
below the burner level. Boilers installed in confined areas must have two ventilation
Front 24” 610mm

openings in the door. Each opening should have a free area of not less than 1 square
inch per 1,000 BTU (140 square inch per US GPH) of the total input for all appliances
in the enclosure. O ne opening located, near top of enclosure and one near th e b ottom.
BASEMENT
Where a boiler is installed in a full basement, infiltration is normally adequate to
provide air for combustion.
In buildings of tight construction where the basement windows are weather stripped,
one opening communicating with a well-ventilated attic or with the outdoors should be
provided. The opening should have a minimum free area of 1 square inch per 1,000
BTU per hour of total input for all appliances in the enclosure.
SPECIAL CONDITIONS
Where a boiler is located in an area where the operation of exhaust fans, kitchen
ventilation systems, clothes dryers, or fireplaces may create conditions of
unsatisfactory combustion or venting, special provisions should be made for additional
air for combustion, as specified by local authority.
TRIM ASSEMBLY
Install the drain valve in the 1-¼” tapping on the backside of the boiler. Install the
safety relief valve in the ¾” tapping on the backside of the boiler. The safety relief
valve should be piped to a place of safe discharge. Install your air bleed connection
into the 90° elbow mounted in the top ¾” tapping behind the smoke collector box.
Install the altitude gauge in the ¼” tapping provided on the front in the coil plate.
PACKAGED BOILER
Controls and burner are installed and pre-wired at the factory. Install Relief Valve as
noted in Trim Assembly.
BOILER PIPING
Minimum sup ply and retur n pipe size of no t less than 1¼” to be used.
The recommended locations of pumps, expansion tanks, etc. are illustrated in Figures
2, 3, & 4. Relief valve discharge and drain valve piping should be piped to a safe place
of discharge. ALL plugs and water connections should be checked for leaks upon
installation and annually.
TANK-LESS WATER HEATING PIPING
The tank-less heater may be connected as shown in Figure 4. A mixing valve (not
supplied) may be used to reduce the water temperature at kitchen or bathroom taps.
When connecting to the domestic water coil a pressure temperature relief valve must
be installed.
High temperature water for a dishwasher may be obtained by piping as shown.
THE NUTS THAT SECURE THE TANKLESS COIL FLANGE SHOULD BE TIGHTENED
BEFORE THE BOILER IS FILLED WITH WATER, AFTER INITIAL FIRING AND EVERY
YEAR DURING ANNUAL MAINTENANC E. DETERIORATION DUE TO CO IL G ASKET LEAKS
SHALL VOID WARRANTY.

BURNER AND C O NT ROLS
Honeywell L6081A Aquastat Controller
This control is installed on the middle fitting of the domestic coil. These immersion
type controls are used with forced hydronic heating systems, which include domestic
water service. This model provides high limits, low limits for maintaining minimum
boiler water temperature and circulator controls. See the wiring diagram for proper
connections of this unit. The primary control is factory wired to the aquastat
controller. These controls working as a system will prevent the circulator operation if
the water temperature is below a predetermined low level. Likewise, if the water level
reaches a predetermined high limit the burner will automatically shut off.
Low Water Cut-off Switch RB-122
This control is installed in the supply tapping in the top front of the boiler. The RB-122
low water control is specifically designed to provide burner cut-off if there is an unsafe
water loss, which can result from a broken or leaking radiator or pipe, or a cracked
section in the boiler.
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
Forced Circulation Hot Water System with Tank-less Heater
When the room temperature falls below thermostat setting, thermostat calls for heat
switching the control to full burn mode. When water temperature rises to the preset
temperature setting on the low limit – circulator control the circulator pump is turned
on providing hot water to room zone. At the same time the relay trips and reduces the
burner to pilot mode preventing over temperature. If the circulator pump turns off
because of low water temperature before the room thermostat is satisfied the relay
energizes and switches the burner back to full burn mode to increase the water
temperature. This cycling will continue until the room thermostat is satisfied. When
the room thermostat is satisfied the burner will switch back into pilot mode waiting for
the next heat demand. Because the burner stays in pilot mode between calls for heat,
in extended low demand periods the water temperature may rise enough to turn the
circulator pump on therefore a dump zone should be configured into the system.

FUNCTIONING OF SAFETY AND OPERATING CONTROLS
The safety and operating controls shall function within the limits specified by the
manufacturer for the type of equipment. The following tests shall be performed:
(a) Check the operation of the automatic fuel feeding interrupt device at each
entrance to the floor space within which the fuel-feeding device is installed.
(b) Check that when the low water level control on steam and hot water boilers is
operated to indicate a low water level, the automatic fuel-feed is interrupted.
(c) Check that when the excessive pressure control on steam and hot water boilers is
operated as in an excessive pressure situation, the automatic fuel-feed is
interrupted.
(d) Check that when the excessive water temperature control on hot water boilers is
operated to indicate excessive water temperature, the automatic fuel-feed is
interrupted and, if appropriate, that one or more zone control valves open.
(e) Check that if the temperature exceeds 95°C (200°F) in a furnace supply plenum
on hot air furnaces, the automatic fuel-feed is interrupted.
(f) Check that if there is a failure of the fan providing combustion air, the automatic
fuel-feed is interrupted.
(g) Check that if there is a failure of the combustion air supply control mechanism to
remain fully open, the automatic fuel-feed is interrupted.
(h) Check that when the hot water circulating pump manual disconnect switch, is
opened, the automatic fuel-feed is interrupted.
(i) Check that if there is a shutdown or failure of the mechanical flue-gas exhauster,
the automatic fuel-feed is interrupted.
(j) Check that if there is a failure in the flue gas flow, the automatic fuel-feed is
interrupted, or the combustion air supply is shut off in manually fuel appliances.
(k) Check for the proper operation of the minimum fire maintenance controls and
system or, if applicable, of the automatic ignition system.
(l) Check for the proper operation of the controls used for normal automatic fuel
feeding.
(m) Check the operation of any other controls supplied on the appliance by the
manufacturer, or required by the authority having jurisdiction.
