Combustion Air - Prevention of Contamination
SECTION I - COMBUSTION AIR - PREVENTION OF CONTAMINATION
WARNING
If the PRESTIGE combustion air inlet is located in any area likely to cause or contain contamination, or if products, which would contaminate the air cannot be removed, the combustion air must be re-piped and terminated to another location. Contaminated combustion air will damage the unit and its burner system, resulting in possible severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
WARNING
Do not operate a PRESTIGE unit if its combustion air inlet or the unit is located in or near a laundry room or pool facility. These areas will always contain haz­ardous contaminates.
Pool and laundry products and common household and hobby products often contain fluorine or chlo­rine compounds. When these chemicals pass through the burner and vent system, they can form strong acids. These acids can create corrosion of the heat exchanger, burner components and vent system, causing serious damage and presenting a possible threat of flue gas spillage or water leakage into the surrounding area.
Please read the following information. If contami­nating chemicals will be present near the location of the combustion air inlet, the installer should pipe the combustion air inlet to another location per the PRESTIGE installation manual.
Potential Contaminating Products
- Spray cans containing chloro/fluorocarbons
- Permanent Wave Solutions
- Chlorinated wax
- Chlorine - based swimming pool chemicals and spa cleaners
- Calcium Chloride used for thawing ice
- Sodium Chloride used for water softening
- Refrigerant leaks
- Paint or varnish removers
- Hydrochloric acid / muriatic acid
- Cements and glues
- Antistatic fabric softeners used in clothes dryers
- Chlorine-type bleaches, detergents, and clean­ing solvents found in household laundry rooms
- Adhesives used to fasten building products and other similar products
Areas likely to find these products

Maintenance Procedures
SECTION III - MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
WARNING
The PRESTIGE must be inspected and serviced annually, preferably at the start of the heating sea­son, by a qualified service technician. In addition, the maintenance and care of the boiler as outlined on page 3 and further explained on pages 4 through 6 must be performed to assure maximum efficiency and reliability of the unit. Failure to service and maintain the PRESTIGE and the system components could result in equipment failure, causing possible severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
NOTICE
The following information provides detailed instruc­tion for completing the maintenance items outlined in the maintenance schedule on page 3. In addition to this maintenance, the PRESTIGE should be serv­iced at the beginning of the heating season by a qualified service technician.
1. Combustible / flammable materials - Do not store combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids near the unit. Remove immediately if found.
2. Air contaminates - Products containing chlorine or fluorine, if allowed to contaminate the com­bustion air, will cause acidic condensate within the unit. This will cause significant damage to the unit. Read the list of potential materials list­ed on page 2 of this manual. If any of these products are in the room from which the unit takes its combustion air, they must be removed immediately or the combustion air intake must be relocated to another area.
Check Combustion Air Inlets
1. Verify that ventilation air openings to the mechanical room are open and unobstructed.
2. Verify that the unit’s vent termination and com­bustion air intake are clean and free of obstruc­tions. Remove any debris on the air intake or flue exhaust openings. If removing the debris does not allow the unit to operate correctly, con­tact your qualified service technician to inspect the unit and the vent / combustion air system.
Daily Maintenance
Check the surrounding area
WARNING
To prevent potential of severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage, eliminate all the materials listed on page 2 from the area surrounding the unit and from the vicinity of the combustion air inlet. If contaminates are found:
Remove products immediately from the area. If they have been there for an extended period, call a quali­fied service technician to inspect the unit for possi­ble damage from acid corrosion.
If products cannot be removed, immediately call a qualified service technician to re-pipe the combus­tion air inlet piping and locate the combustion air intake away from the contaminated areas.
Check Temperature display and Pressure Gauge
1. Ensure the pressure reading on the pressure gauge does not exceed 25 psig. Higher pres­sure readings may indicate a problem with the expansion tank.
2. Ensure the temperature on the display panel does not exceed 194ºF. Higher temperature readings may indicate a problem with the oper­ating thermostat controls.
3. Contact a qualified service technician if prob­lem persists.

Maintenance Procedures
Monthly Maintenance
Check Vent Piping
1. Visually inspect the flue gas vent piping for any signs of blockage, leakage or deterioration of the piping. Notify a qualified service technician immediately if any problems are found.
WARNING
Failure to inspect the venting system as noted and have it repaired by a qualified service technician can result in the vent system failure, causing severe per­sonal injury or death.
Check Combustion Air inlet Piping
1. Visually inspect the combustion air inlet piping for any signs of blockage. Inspect the entire length of the combustion air inlet piping to ensure piping is intact and all joints are properly sealed.
WARNING
Under some circumstances the PRESTIGE may not produce enough condensate to keep the condensate trap full of liquid. If the trap is not full, small amounts of flue gases can be emitted into the sur­rounding area through the condensate drain line or tee.
3. Ensure the condensate drain line is not blocked by pouring water through the plug port on the condensate drain assembly. The water should flow out of the end of the drain line. If water does not appear at the end of the drain line, con­tact a qualified service technician to inspect and clean the condensate line.
4. To fill the condensate drain assembly, if neces­sary, remove the plug from the condensate assembly. Slowly pour water into the trap assembly until water appears at the end of the drain line. Stop filling and replace plug.
Check Automatic Air Vents (If Used)
2. Notify a qualified service technician if any prob­lems are found.
Check Pressure Relief Valve
1. Visually inspect the primary pressure relief valve and the relief valve discharge pipe for signs of weeping or leakage.
2. If the pressure relief valve often weeps, the expansion tank may not be operating properly. Immediately contact a qualified service techni­cian to inspect the unit and system.
Check Vent Condensate Drain System
1. While the unit is running, check the discharge end of the condensate drain tubing. Ensure no flue gas is leaking from the condensate drain tubing or tee connection by holding your fingers near the opening.
2. If you notice flue gas leaking from the opening, this indicates a dry condensate drain trap. Fill the condensate trap assembly. Contact a quali­fied service technician to inspect the unit and condensate line and refill the condensate trap if problem persists regularly.
1. Remove the cap “A” from any automatic air vent in the system and check operation by depressing valve “B” slightly with the tip of a screwdriver. See Fig. 1.
2. If the air vent valve appears to be working freely and not leaking, replace cap “A”, screwing it on fully.
3. Loosen cap “A” one full turn to allow vent to operate properly.
4. Have the air vent replaced by a qualified service technician if it does not operate correctly.

Maintenance Procedures
6-Month Maintenance
Check water and gas piping
1. Remove the boiler front jacket panel and perform a gas leak inspection per steps 1 through 6 of the Operating Instructions on page 7. If gas odor or leak is detected, immediately shut down the unit following procedures on page 7. Call a qualified service technician.
2. Visually inspect for leaks around the internal boiler water connections and around the heat exchanger. Visually inspect the external system piping, circula­tors, and system components and fittings. Immediately call a qualified service technician to repair any leaks.
WARNING
Have leaks fixed at once by a qualified service tech­nician. Failure to comply could result in severe per­sonal injury, death or substantial property damage.
2. Read the temperature display and pressure gauge to ensure the system is pressurized. Lift the relief valve top lever slightly, allowing water to relieve through the valve and discharge piping.
3. If water flows freely, release the lever and allow the valve to seat. Watch the end of the relief valve discharge pipe to ensure that the valve does not weep after the line has had time to drain. If the valve weeps, lift the lever again to attempt to clean the valve seat. If the valve does not properly seat and continues to weep afterwards, contact a qualified service techni­cian to inspect the valve and system.
4. If the water does not flow from the valve when you lift the lever completely, the valve or dis­charge line may be blocked. Immediately shut the unit down per the instructions on page 7. Call a qualified service technician to inspect the valve and system.
Operate Pressure Relief Valve
1. Before proceeding, verify that the relief valve outlet has been piped to a safe place of dis­charge, avoiding any possibility of scalding from hot water.
WARNING
To avoid water damage or scalding due to valve operation, a discharge line must be connected to the relief valve outlet and directed to a safe place of dis­posal. This discharge line must be installed by a qualified service technician or heating / plumbing installer in accordance with the PRESTIGE installa­tion manual. The discharge line must be terminated so as to eliminate possibility of severe burns or property damage should the valve discharges.
