Combustion Air - Prevention of Contamination
SECTION I - COMBUSTION AIR - PREVENTION OF
ONTAMINATION
C
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.

does not appear at the end of the drain line, contact a qualified service technician to inspect and
clean the condensate line.
5. To fill the condensate drain assembly, if neces-
sary, remove the fill 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.
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 Condensate Drain System
1. Ensure condensate drain assembly is firmly
secured to bottom of heat exchanger/unit. See
Fig.1.
WARNING
