HSE Installation and Service Manual

DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE

The Super Hot Intergas HSE is a combined high efficiency condensing boiler and instantaneous water heater that is designed for providing Central Heating (CH) and/or Domestic Hot Water (DHW). The actual required input rate for CH and DHW can be independently programmed lower than the maximum input rate to match the user’s design heating load and required DHW supply. During operation, the input rate will be automatically modulated to satisfy the central heating or domestic hot water demand.

The heat exchanger is constructed of two separated copper tube circuits (i.e. CH and DHW) embedded in high-pressure cast aluminium. This design protects against corrosion by using copper tube to contain system water and aluminium to condense flue gases. The DHW system eliminates typical standby heat losses as compared to hot water tanks, isolates the domestic hot water from potential contamination as compared to a single wall indirect tank or flat plate heat exchanger, and has a higher efficiency as compared to a direct-fired hot water tank.

Because of the separated circuits for CH and DHW, the heating and the hot water supply operate independently of each other. The hot water supply has priority over the central heating if both systems are connected; they cannot work simultaneously. It is possible to use the appliance solely for hot water or solely for heating with the unused system not connected. Also, the DHW circuit can be connected to a storage hot water tank, but cannot be connected to a closed system (e.g. the coil of an indirect hot water tank).

The appliance is equipped with an electronic controller to energize the pump, control the blower, open the gas valve, ignite the burner, continuously monitor the flame and modulate the input rate to match the current heat demand.

The appliance is certified as a direct vent (balanced flue) only. The combustion air supply and flue discharge can be connected to the appliance by means of two separate pipes or a concentric connection.

The appliance must be wall mounted and can be mounted using either the supplied wall mounting strip or the optional wall mounting frame. The frame provides the spacing needed for a large elbow when venting through the sidewall on which it is mounted. Also, the frame can hold a square expansion tank and allows piping to pass behind the appliance for a very compact installation. The wall mounting frame and expansion tank are supplied separately.

The appliance is factory equipped for natural gas. An optional propane conversion kit, included with conversion instructions, can be supplied upon request.

The appliance includes standard parts for connection to a central heating (CH) system. For connection to domestic hot water heating (DHW) system, the DHW kit must be used with the appliance and can be supplied upon request.

Using the appliance for any other application which is outside of the scope is not covered by the warranty.

1.2 INSTALLATION CODES AND REQUIREMENTS

All applicable national, provincial/state, and local codes, laws, regulations, and ordinances must be followed. They expand on and take precedence over any recommendations in this booklet. Authorities having jurisdiction shall be consulted before installations are made.

In Canada, the installation must conform to the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such requirements, to the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code (current edition),

CAN/CSA B149.1. All electrical wiring and grounding must be in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1 Part 1 (current edition) and applicable local codes.

In the United States of America, the installation must conform to the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such requirements, to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI

Z223.1/NFPA 54 (current edition). All electrical wiring and grounding must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (current edition) and applicable local codes.

Where required by the authority having jurisdiction, follow the Standard for Controls and Safety Devices for Automatically Fired Boilers, ANSI/ASME CSD-1 (current edition).

If there is any conflict in the above requirements, the more stringent requirement applies.

The installation and service must also conform to the additional requirements in this manual. If there is any conflict with a requirement in this manual and a Code requirement, the Code requirement must be followed.

The hot water distribution system must comply with all applicable codes and regulations. When replacing an existing appliance, it is important to check the condition of the entire hot water distribution system to ensure safe operation.

Some jurisdictions may require that flue condensate be neutralized prior to disposal because flue condensate is very corrosive and will corrode most metals.

HSE Installation and Service Manual

1.3 LOCATION AND INSTALLATION

1.3.1 LOCATION

This appliance is intended for an indoor, wall hung installation using the wall mounting strip or optional mounting frame. The appliance should be mounted on a wall with sufficient bearing strength. In the case of light wall constructions, resonance sounds may occur.

In order to avoid freezing of the condensate discharge, the appliance should be installed in a frost-free room.

A hot water boiler installed above radiation level, or as required by the authorities having jurisdiction, must be provided with a low water cutoff device at the time of boiler installation.

This appliance must be installed such that gas ignition system components are protected from water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during appliance operation and service (circulator replacement, condensate trap, control replacement, etc.).

Structure through which venting will pass must be free and clear for opening (i.e. no hidden conduit, telephone cables or other obstructions).

1.3.2 MINIMUM SERVICE CLEARANCES

Minimum clearances from appliance casing to combustible materials are zero reasonable space must be provided for ventilation. Recommended minimum clearances for service are listed in table 1.

HSE Installation and Service Manual

1.3.7 INSTALL THE CONDENSATE TRAP (Refer to Figure 6)

WARNING

Risk of exhaust gases escaping to the appliance room! The condensate trap must always be filled with water or condensate so that it forms a liquid-filled trap. Check the trap and, if low, fill it until water begins to pour out of the drain.

Install the condensate trap to the condensate outlet pipe (C) and tighten union.

The flexible tube (A) from the condensate trap should be inserted into an open waste pipe (B) of not less than 1-1/4 inch (32 mm) diameter or a neutralization unit. If connected to a soil pipe or waste system, the waste pipe must have a trap (similar to the arrangement for washing machine).

The condensate formed both in the appliance and the venting system is collected in the collector at the bottom of heat exchanger and is discharged into the public sewage system through the condensate trap. The condensate produced by the gas combustion products typically has a pH value between 3 and 4. Some local codes may require that the aggressive and corrosive condensate be neutralized before discharging it into the public sewage system. If a neutralization unit is installed, all condensate passes through the neutralization unit and is neutralized to a pH value of above 6.5 before release to the public sewage system. It is advisable to contact your local authority responsible for waste water regulations before commencing with the installation of the neutralization unit.

The amount of neutralizer needed will depend on the operation of the appliance. To determine the required refill amount, check granulate level several times throughout the year, or as necessary. In some cases one granulate fill may last an entire year. Contact Allied Engineering Company for a condensate neutralization kit when required.

Figure 6 Install condensate trap

Never use copper or steel/galvanized pipe in the construction of the condensate system. Route condensate drain line in a manner such that any condensate leakage will not cause property damage. Do not run flue condensate line outside. A frozen or blocked drain will cause the condensate to fill the combustion chamber and cause the boiler shut down. When a condensate pump is used or required, select a pump that is designed for pumping the condensate of condensing residential furnaces (i.e. corrosion resistant).

1.4 WATER PIPING SYSTEMS

The water piping system of an appliance connected to heating coils located in air handling units where they may be exposed to refrigerated air circulation must be equipped with flow control valves or other automatic means to prevent gravity circulation of the boiler water during the cooling cycle.

The appliance, when used in connection with a refrigeration system, must be installed so the chilled medium is piped in parallel with the appliance with appropriate valves to prevent the chilled medium from entering the appliance.

1.4.1 CH PIPING SYSTEM (BOILER)

1.4.1.1 CH PIPING CONNECTIONS (Refer to Figure 7)

1. Use the compression fittings supplied with the appliance to connect the heating system supply and return pipes. Check whether the compression rings are straight in the connectors. All pipes must be installed tension-free in order to avoid ticking of the pipes. The connections must not be twisted in order to avoid leaks at the joint points.

2. The CH system is recommended with:

• A make up water loop in the system below the appliance as shown in figure 8.

• A drain tap at the lowest point of the system.

• An expansion tank (Follow section 1.4.1.4).

• A check valve when pipes are running upward at a short distance from the appliance.

This prevents gravity circulation during domestic hot water operation of the appliance.

3. Flush the CH system thoroughly after finishing the piping installation and purge trapped air.

Note: Install pressure relief valve 6" [153mm] below the bottom of the appliance casing to allow for controller opening.

HSE Installation and Service Manual

1.4.1.2 PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

WARNING

The pressure relief valve discharges pressurized hot water which can turn into steam. Steam exiting the discharge outlet can explosively expand in all directions. Always maintain a safe distance from the discharge pipe outlet in order to avoid potential contact with exiting hot water or steam and injury.

A pressure relief valve is supplied as standard equipment. The pressure relief valve is extra protection against damage that could be caused by malfunctioning controls or excessive water pressure. The pressure relief valve is a code requirement. Field installation of the relief valve must be consistent with the ANSI/ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section IV. The manufacturer is not responsible for any water damage. If a pressure relief valve is not used, the warranty is void.

The pressure relief valve should be installed on the boiler outlet with its spindle vertical. The connection between the boiler and the relief valve must have at least the area of the relief valve inlet. No valve should be installed between the pressure relief valve and the appliance or in the discharge piping.

A discharge pipe should be used. The discharge pipe outlet should be positioned over a suitable drain and so arranged that there will be no danger of being scalded. The discharge pipe must pitch down from the valve and should be no smaller than the outlet of the valve. The end of the discharge pipe should not be concealed or threaded and should be protected from freezing. Extensive runs, traps or bends could reduce the capacity of the pressure relief valve.

1.4.1.3 MANUAL SHUTOFF VALVES (Refer to Figure 7) Install the manual shut off valves on the supply and return pipes.

1.4.1.4 EXPANSION TANK AND MAKE-UP WATER The boiler requires an expansion tank which is of

the adequate volume for the heating system. For larger volume systems, an additional expansion tank may be required. Consult heating system engineer and the expansion tank manufacturer for proper sizing information.

Install make-up water connections as per local codes. If a pressure reducing valve is used as shown in figure 8, adjust it to match the system fill pressure. Also adjust the diaphragm type expansion tank air pressure to match the system fill pressure. In connecting the cold make-up water supply to the appliance, make sure that clean water supply is available. When the water supply is from a well or pump, a sand strainer should be installed at the pump.

1.4.1.5 SYSTEM BYPASS AND PRESSURE HEAD LOSSES

A bypass (primary/secondary piping) is not required for the safe operation of the appliance. It may, however, be required in conjunction with certain controls on a heating system.

Figure 8 Example of make up water loop

Pump head and pressure drop of the CH heat exchanger versus water flow rate are shown in Figure 30. To confirm if the equipped pump meets the system pressure drop or requires an additional system pump, the system pressure drop must be calculated by a qualified heating system designer.

HSE Installation and Service Manual

1.4.1.6 CORROSION PREVENTION (Internal)

The use of oxygen barrier tubing is recommended to protect the system and its components (e.g. pump) from corrosion. Should your system include "non-oxygen barrier” tubing please contact the factory or a heating professional for recommendations.

If freeze protection is required, use an inhibited propylene glycol solution which is specifically designed for hydronic heating systems and always maintained at a neutral pH (e.g. Fernox Alphi-11 or equivalent). Follow the supplier’s instructions for proper use and maintenance. Do not use automotive antifreeze.

Some types of chemical additives can cause problems (e.g. accelerated corrosion, reduced efficiency, etc.) and could result in premature failure of the boiler heat exchanger and/or system components, especially when not properly used or maintained. Corrosion is a preventable condition and is not covered by the product warranty.

1.4.2 DHW PIPING SYSTEM (WATER HEATER)

1.4.2.1 DHW PIPING CONNECTIONS

1. Piping and components connected to the water heater shall be suitable for use with potable

water.

2. Flush the hot and cold water system thoroughly to clean out metal powder, sand and dirt

before connecting it.

3. Use compression fittings supplied to connect the DHW supply and return pipes (refer to

Figure 7). Check whether the compression rings are straight in the connectors. All pipes must be installed tension-free in order to avoid ticking of the pipes. The connections must not be twisted in order to avoid leaks at the joint points.

4. Test that there are no water leaks from the cold and hot water supply pipes and then insulate

all water piping especially the hot supply and recirculation water lines, and cold water pipe according to the climate of the region or local code to prevent the pipe from freezing. Do not cover the drain or pressure relief valve.

WARNING

Potential Scald Hazard. A thermostatic mixing valve must be used to prevent potential scalding hazards that may result in severe personal injury or death.

When the appliance is used for hot water supply only in the summer, the CH heating function can be switched off with the service code on the operating panel.

If the appliance is shutdown during the winter, the domestic hot water and heating water loops should be drained to prevent the pipes from freezing. Also disconnect the make up water for the CH heating loop and cold water for the domestic hot water at the bottom of the appliance.

1.4.2.2 DHW PIPING WITH A BACKFLOW PREVENTER

If the water heater is installed in a closed water supply system, such as one having a backflow preventer in the cold water supply line, means shall be provided to control thermal expansion. Contact the water supplier or local plumbing inspector on how to control this situation.

1.4.2.3 PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE OR TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE A pressure relief valve must be installed near the domestic hot water outlet. If the unit is

connected to a separate storage vessel, the separate vessel must have its own temperature and pressure relief valve. The pressure relief valve or temperature and pressure relief valve must be rated in accordance with and comply with the Standard for Relief Valves for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22/CSA 4.4 or the ANSI/ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section IV (“Heating Boilers”).

The location of the relief valve shall be accessible for servicing or replacement. If a separate storage vessel is installed, it shall have a tapping separate from the tapping for the water connections to accommodate a temperature and pressure relief valve of adequate size to protect the water heater. This tapping shall be clearly identified on Class III marking material and shall be located in the top of the tank, or in the side of the tank on a centreline within the upper 6 inches of the top of the tank. The tapping shall be threaded in accordance with the Standard for Pipe Threads, General Purpose (Inch), ANSI/ASME B1.20.1.

The maximum Btu/h discharge capacity of the pressure relief valve must be at least equal to the maximum input rating of the water heater. The maximum relieving pressure setting must not exceed 150 psi (10.3 bar). No valve shall be placed between the relief valve and the water heater, relief valve and the storage tank, or in the discharge pipe as shown in figure 7.

Avoid contact with the hot water and steam discharged to prevent personal injury. The discharge pipe outlet should be positioned over a suitable drain within 6” (152 mm) from the floor. It must be arranged so that there will be no danger of being scalded and the hot water cannot splash on anyone or nearby equipment.

The discharge pipe must pitch down from the valve and should be no smaller than the outlet of the valve. The end of the discharge pipe should not be concealed or threaded and should be protected from freezing. Extensive runs, traps or bends could reduce the capacity of the pressure relief valve. No reducing coupling or other restriction can be installed in the discharge line.

If a relief valve discharges periodically, this may be due to thermal expansion in a close water supply system. Contact the water supplier or local plumbing inspector on how to correct this situation. Do not plug the relief valve.

1.4.2.4 CATHODIC PROTECTION DEVICES When cathodic protection devices are used in the storage tank, hydrogen gas can be produced in

a hot water system that has not been used for a long period of time (generally two weeks or more). Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable. To prevent the possibility of injury under these conditions, we recommend the hot water faucet be open for several minutes at the kitchen sink before you use any electrical appliance which is connected to the hot water system. If hydrogen is present, there will probably be an unusual sound as air escaping through the pipe as the hot water begins to flow. There should be no smoking or open flame near the faucet when it is open.

1.4.3 APPLIANCE USED WITH SOLAR SYSTEMS

This appliance is suitable for use with solar hot water systems and can be buffered using a Super Hot storage tank or indirect hot water tank. Contact Allied Engineering Company for details.

1.5 GAS SERVICE PIPING

All piping and fittings must be installed as per codes in Section 1.2. Make sure the gas on which the appliance will operate is the same as that specified on the appliance rating plate. Do not install the appliance if equipped for a different type gas. Consult your gas supplier to get gas information.

HSE Installation and Service Manual

To prevent damage, care must be taken not to apply too much torque when connecting pipe fitting of gas supply to gas inlet pipe on the appliance. A manual main shut-off valve must be installed in the gas line outside the appliance jacket and as required in Section 1.2. The valve should be readily accessible for turning on and off.

When a vertical section of gas piping is supplied on the upstream side of the gas controls, a drip pocket or sediment trap must be installed at the inlet of gas connection to the appliance (in the gas supply line upstream of the gas controls and as close to the appliance as possible), example shown in Figure 10.

The appliance and its gas connection must be leak tested before placing the appliance in operation. The gas controls furnished are suitable for a maximum operating gas pressure of 1/2 psi (14 inches water column/356 mm water column).

The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess psig (14 inches water column/356 mm water column).

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing at test pressures equal to or less than (14 in. water column/356 mm water column).

The pipe compound used should be resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum gases. Check for gas leaks in piping, connection to appliance, and gas valve inlet before placing the appliance in operation by using a soap and water solution. Also check for gas leaks at the gas valve outlet when the appliance is on. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME.

1.7 VENTING AND COMBUSTION AIR

DEFINITIONS

A direct vent (a balanced flue) appliance – an appliance that operates with all air for combustion obtained from the outdoor atmosphere and all flue gases discharged to the outdoor atmosphere.

A non-direct vent appliance – an appliance that operates with all air for combustion obtained from the boiler room and all flue gases discharged to the outdoor atmosphere.

This appliance is certified as a direct vent appliance only. The venting system must be installed in accordance with this manual and the venting manufacturer’s certified installation instructions.

Provision for combustion and ventilation air must be met in accordance with Chapter 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation and Chapter 7, Venting of Equipment, of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 in USA, and Section 7, Venting Systems and Air Supply for Appliances, of the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CAN/CSA B149.1 in Canada. Also, applicable provisions of the local building codes must be followed. Contact local building or fire officials about restrictions and installation inspection in your area. If there is any conflict in the above Code requirements, the more stringent requirement applies.

For a direct vent appliance installation, sufficient air for ventilation in the appliance room or closet should be provided from indoors to reduce the room air temperature.

The air supply and venting terminations must always be kept clear of obstructions (i.e. snow, ice, etc.).

The responsibility of providing a suitable venting and air intake tube of adequate draft capacity and in good usable condition is that of the gas fitter/installer. Interference with the air supply for the appliance shall be prohibited.

Removal of an Existing Boiler

When an existing appliance is removed from a common venting system, the common venting system is likely to be too large for proper venting of the appliances connected to it.

At the time of removal of an existing appliance, the following steps shall be followed with each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system placed in operation, while the other appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are not in operation.

a) Seal any unused openings in the common venting system.

b) Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch and determine there is no

blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition.

c) Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and windows and all doors between the space in which

the appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are located and other spaces of the building. Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance not connected to the common venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.

d) Place in operation the boiler being inspected. Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust the thermostat

so the appliance will operate continuously.

e) Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the

flame of a match or candle, or smoke from a cigarette, cigar or pipe.

f) After it has been determined that each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system

properly vents when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas burning appliance to their previous conditions of use.

g) Any improper operation of the common venting system should be corrected so the installation

conforms with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 and/or the Natural Gas and Propane

HSE Installation and Service Manual

Installation Code, CAN/CSA B149.1. When re-sizing any portion of the common venting system, the common venting system should be resized to approach the minimum size as determined using the appropriate tables in Part 11 of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or the

Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CAN/CSA B149.1.

1.7.1 CORROSIVE ATMOSPHERE

If the appliance is to be installed near a corrosive or potentially corrosive air supply, the appliance must be isolated from it and outside air must be supplied as a direct venting system.

Chemical vapors from products containing chlorine or fluorine must be avoided. Even though these chemicals may be safe to breathe, corrosive substances can become liberated when passed through a gas flame. Even at low concentrations, these chemicals can significantly contaminate the air supply and shorten the life of any gas-fired appliance. The following is a list of some of the products which should be avoided:

• bleaches and chlorinated cleaning products

• paints and sprays

• water softeners (calcium or sodium chloride)

• leaking refrigeration equipment

• Freon from common aerosol dispensers

These chemicals are especially common near swimming pools, beauty shops, dry cleaning establishments, laundry areas, workshops, and garages. The warranty is void when failure is due to corrosion.

1.7.2 AIR INTAKE SYSTEM

For a direct vent system, DWV (drains, waste, vents) PVC, CPVC, ABS, galvanized steel tube, and flex aluminum tube can be used for the air intake system. Do not use these materials for the exhaust vent system. ULC S636 PVC and CPVC or stainless steel tube may also be used for the air intake system. The air intake tube and its joints should be sealed using appropriate sealants when necessary.

1.7.3 EXHAUST VENT SYSTEM

WARNING

Failure to comply with these instructions may result in a failure of venting system and leakage of flue products to the living space. Only certified may be used to vent this appliance. Do not use cellular core for vent piping. Follow vent manufacturer’s recommendations for vent installation.

WARNING

Venting and components (e.g. elbows, primer, cement) are to be installed as a system as per the vent manufacturer’s installation instructions. Do not mix and match components from different vent systems.

This appliance will produce some condensate with a positive vent static pressure during operation and therefore an air-tight and anti-corrosion venting system must be used. Use only certified PP, CPVC or stainless steel exhaust venting which has been approved. The following manufacturers offer venting and components approved for use with this appliance:

PP, CPVC or stainless steel

CPVC schedule 40 venting tube and components:

• In Canada, IPEX: System CPVC or certified type of ULC S636

• In USA, ANSI/ASTM F441, CPVC schedule 40 or certified type

HSE Installation and Service Manual

PP venting tube and components:

• In Canada, M&G: PP system, certified type of ULC S636

• In USA, ANSI/ASTM, PP system, certified type

Stainless steel venting tube and components (certified types for Category IV):

• Flexmaster Canada Ltd.: Z-Vent

• Z-Flex U.S., Inc.: Z-Vent

• Heat-Fab Inc.: Saf-T-Vent

• Flex-L International Inc.: StaR-34

• Protech Systems, Inc.: FasNSeal

The use of these manufacturers' venting systems for sidewall venting will require the use of a vent terminal specified by Allied Engineering Company. The vent terminal for a vertical venting system should be obtained from the supplier of the venting system listed above.

1.7.4 VENT TERMINAL INFORMATION

The minimum distance from the vent terminal to adjacent public walkways, adjacent buildings, operable windows and building openings shall be not less than those values specified in the

National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CAN/CSA B149.1.

Flue gas condensate can freeze on the exterior walls or on the vent termination. Frozen condensate on the vent cap can result in a blocked flue condition and should be removed to keep the appliance operating normally.

Some discoloration to exterior building surfaces can be expected. Adjacent brick or masonry surfaces should be protected with a rust resistant sheet metal plate. To prevent discoloration and degradation of building materials by flue gases and flue gas condensation, ensure that the vent terminal is installed clear of nearby obstacles. In all cases, installation shall be in accordance with applicable code(s).

For proper operation, the vent terminal must be kept free of snow, leaf dropping and other debris at all times to ensure that no blockage occurs.

Do not terminate the vent in a window well, stairwell, alcove, courtyard, or other recessed area. The vent cannot terminate below grade and over paved walkways or paved driveway that is located between two single-family dwellings and serves both dwellings, or near soffit vents or crawl space vents or other area where condensate or vapor could create a nuisance or hazard or cause property damage; or where condensate or vapor could cause damage or could be detrimental to the operation of regulators, relief valves, or other equipment. The vent shall not terminate underneath a veranda, porch, or deck unless the veranda, porch, or deck is fully open on a minimum of two sides beneath the floor and the distance between the top of the vent termination and the underside of the veranda, porch, or deck is greater than 1 foot (300 mm).

Do not locate the vent terminal directly under roof or deck overhangs to prevent icicles from forming. Due to the low flue gas temperature, ‘pluming’ will occur at the flue terminal. Care should be taken to ensure that the discharge plume will not cause annoyance to the neighbors. Therefore, never allow vent terminal towards neighbor’s windows or where personal injury or property damage can occur.

The terminal shall not be installed in any area which is not allocated to the occupancy in which the appliance is installed.

In a structure with three walls and a roof, the terminal shall not be installed:

HSE Installation and Service Manual

a) more than 72 inches (1.8 m) from the outside opening;

b) on any wall that has an opening between the terminal and the open side of the structure.

It is highly recommended that the vent terminal be located where it will not be exposed to normal prevailing winds.

The vertical termination shall extend to the required height above the highest point where it passes through the roof of the building and located higher than any portion of a building within a horizontal distance of the required distance, or specified as local jurisdiction.

The vent terminal shall be located at a certain distance from any building opening and above any mechanical air supply inlet to any building.

Gas service meters:

The vent shall not terminate within 3 feet (0.9 m) of any gas service regulator vent outlet and mechanical air inlet to building requires a clearance of 10 feet (3.0 m) from any gas service regulator internal relief vent. Vents are prohibited above the gas meter assembly (not propane regulator vents) within 3 feet (0.9 m) horizontally of the vertical center line of the regulator to a vertical distance of 15 feet (4.6 m).

The bottom of the vent terminal and the air intake shall be located at least 12 inches (0.3 m) above grade plus height of the normal snow line.

The terminal shall not be less than 7 feet (2.1 m) above grade where located adjacent to a public walkway and shall not terminate over public walkways or over an area where condensate or vapor could create a nuisance of hazard or could be detrimental to the operation of regulators, relief valves, or other equipment.

The diagram as shown in Figure 13 indicates vent terminal clearances A to M for a direct vent appliance. The clearance marked on the diagram are stated separately in Table 2 for US and Canadian installations and shall not be less than those specified in the current ANSI

Z223.1/NFPA 54 National Fuel Gas Code or CSA-B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Codes, as applicable. For clearances not specified in ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or CSA-B149.1, the

HSE Installation and Service Manual

1.7.6 EQUIVALENT VENT/AIR INTAKE TUBE LENGTH AND DIAMETERS

The resistance of the combustion air supply and the flue gas tubes depends on the length, the diameter, components used and venting configuration of the venting system. For the appliance to operate normally, the venting system, including air intake piping, flue tube and terminal, must not be overly restrictive. Use Table 3 to determine the venting system equivalent length for a specified vent configuration. The equivalent venting system length of your installation must be within the maximum and minimum allowable length specified in Table 3. Use the notes in Table 3 to calculate your venting systems equivalent length in feet based on the total centerline length and number of elbows for air supply piping and exhaust vent.

1.7.9 VENT INSTALLATIONS

The following installation procedure is a guide for all vent installations:

1. The appliance must be vented to the outdoors. Do not install the vent into a common venting system. The venting system does not require a vent damper.

2. When the straight flue pipe is over 9.5 feet (3 m), a venting condensate drain and trap should be installed. The venting condensate drain should be installed as close to the appliance as possible and must be equipped with a drain trap. The drain trap can be formed by attaching 1/2” (13 mm) diameter flexible tubing to the drain assembly, making a loop of approximately 6” diameter and securing it with a cord or tie wrap where the tube crosses over itself Do not squash the tube or over-tighten it, see Figure 15, or use other type of boiler condensate trap. The loop or condensate trap must then be filled with water to form a liquid-filled trap. This trap allows condensate to drain while preventing exhaust gases from escaping. The condensate should be discharged as per section 1.3.7.

Venting condensate trap

L5=2 ft [0.5m]

L2=2 ft [0.5m]

L4=20 ft [6 m]

L3=22 ft [7.5m]

3. Always select the venting systems, including the terminals, approved for use with this type of appliance.

[1m]

L1= 3 ft

L6=5 ft [1.5m]

4. Follow the vent manufacturer’s instructions or applicable codes to install the venting system, proper venting adapters, spacers, thimbles, caps, roof flashing, storm collar, supports, terminal(s), etc and support the venting system so that its weight does not bear on the

Figure 15: Sample of venting length estimate

appliance.

5. Provide minimum service clearance from vent components to the wall as specified in the section

1.3.

6. The vent system has a positive pressure in the flue requiring that all vent joints and seams be properly cleaned and sealed gas-tight by following the vent manufacturer’s instructions. Also, seal the joints of tube/storm collar and flashing/storm collar with waterproof caulking for a vertical venting installation.

7. Increasing the length of the exhaust vent run will increase the amount of condensate. The condensate of the exhaust is acidic and can cause severe corrosion of ordinary venting materials. Also, appliance operation can be affected by restrictive vent or combustion air supply piping. Therefore, venting lengths must be within the specified minimum and maximum equivalent venting system length in Table 3.

8. Slide the adapters (if required) or air supply and flue tubes into the combustion air intake and flue outlet of the appliance so that the gaskets seal snugly around the adapter. Ensure that there are no gaps or leaks.

9. Connect the required combustion air and vent tubes to the adapters (if installed) by following the vent manufacturer’s instructions and applicable code(s).

HSE Installation and Service Manual

10. Generally, all vent tubes must be adequately supported with vent supports no less than five feet (1.5 m)apart or as per the vent system manufacturer’s instructions or applicable code(s), and at smaller intervals if necessary to ensure that there are no sagging sections along the horizontal runs. Do not use the appliance to support the weight of the venting. Noncombustible tube strap or hangers suitable for the weight can be used to support horizontal runs and maintain vent location.

11. Horizontal venting tube runs must always be installed with a slope upwards not less than ¼ in/ft (2 cm/m) from the appliance to the vent terminal. This is to ensure that any condensate in the venting flows back towards the appliance so that the condensate can be disposed of through the condensate trap system installed on the bottom of appliance or at the down end of the horizontal portions of the venting system. This will prevent condensation from gathering in the venting tube and will also reduce the chance of icicles forming over horizontal tube ends in the winter.

1.7.9.1 HORIZONTAL TWIN TUBE SIDE VENTING WITH TWIN TERMINAL CAPS

Figure 16 is a typical installation for a side venting installation using two 45˚ elbows as twin terminal caps and adapters (if required) for air inlet and flue outlet on the appliance. A space between the two terminal caps is required as shown in Figure 16.

Figures 17 to 19 are typical installations for the vertical twin tube venting with twin terminal caps and adapters (if required) for air inlet and flue outlet on the appliance.

Location of the venting terminal has to be determined based on the applicable code before installing the terminals. Keep the end opening of air terminal at least 12 inches (300 mm) above the normal snow accumulation that can be expected on the roof and the top of the vent terminal at least 12 inches (300 mm) above the air inlet terminal opening. Support the venting on the outside of the roof if necessary or based on the code requirements.

Controller Section 2

2.1 CONTROLLER OPERATION

The appliance uses a microprocessor based controller to manage all functions including ignition and flame supervision, continuously modulating/monitoring each heat demand from the heating system or from the domestic hot water supply. The pump starts running when there is a heat demand from the heating system. The overrun time, which has a default of one minute, can be changed from 0 to 15 minutes if necessary (see setting and adjustment of section 2.4, refer to parameter 8). Also, the controller will automatically run the pump for 10 seconds once every 24 hours to prevent it from getting seized.

There are two supply temperatures set with a default in the controller memory; one is for Central Heating (CH) and the other for Domestic Hot Water supply (DHW). If an outdoor temperature sensor is connected to the appliance, the CH heating supply set point will automatically adjust as the outdoor temperature changes. For more information about the outdoor reset feature, see the section 2.4.3 and 2.4.6.

The controller modulates the appliance input rate by changing the blower speed based on both the difference between supply and return temperatures and the set point temperature. The amount of gas induced into the blower will depend on the blower speed that has been designed to maintain an approximately constant air-fuel ratio. The minimum input rate is 23% of the maximum input rate. In addition, all other safety controls including safety high limit and DHW flow switch are connected to the controller. The controller will shut down the appliance when an unsafe condition exists or, in some cases, corrects the problem based on the sensor/switch signal.

Step modulation is set on (factory setting) so that the power/speed is increased gradually. This provides the best CH operation. However, if the appliance is being used for heating an indirect hot water tank, the step modulation can be set off. The appliance will then start almost immediately at the maximum setting and the system will heat up faster.

The operating and display panel is shown in Figure 25. The display panel has three primary modes of operation. These are:

• Standby Mode – displays appliance’s current status. This is the default operating condition.

• Parameter Mode – used to change control settings.

• Information Mode – displays appliance operating temperatures.

The display and operating controls are summarized in Table 5 and operating condition codes are summarized in Table 6.

The code shown in item 9 in Figure 25 indicates the following operating condition:

- Off

The appliance is not operating, but the power supply is connected to the appliance. There is no response to any demand for DHW or CH; however, the frost protection is active. If the temperature of the water in the heat exchanger drops below 41°F (5°C), the pump starts running, the heat exchanger is heated, code 7 appears on the service display.

Stand-by

After pressing the button of the appliance, the operating condition LED is off. The LED above the on/off

button is on and if necessary one of the LED’s (item 7 and 8) of the domestic hot water comfort

function is on. The appliance is ready for responding to the demand for CH or DHW.

0 Pump overrun

After the operation of the CH, the pump has an overrun. This overrun time is set at the factory according to table 8 and may be changed. Also, the controller will automatically run the pump for 10 seconds, once every 24 hours, to prevent it from getting seized. This activation of the pump takes place at the time of the last heat demand 24 hours later. In order to change this time, set the room thermostat higher for a while at the desired time.

HSE Installation and Service Manual

1 Set temperature reached

The burner controller can temporarily block the heat demand and stop the burner. This blocking takes place because the required temperature has been reached. When the temperature has dropped sufficiently, the blocking is cancelled.

2 Self-test

The burner controller may regularly carry out a self-test and check the connected sensors. During this time, the controller displays code 2 and does not carry out any other tasks.

3 Blower on

At appliance start-up, the blower is brought to the starting speed. When this speed is reached, the burner is ignited. Code 3 is also visible during blower post-purge after stopping the burner.

4 Ignition

When the blower has reached the ignition speed, the burner is ignited by means of electric spark ignition. During ignition, code 4 appears. If the burner is not ignited, another ignition attempt is made after about 5 seconds. If the burner has still not fired after the fourth ignition attempt, the controller indicates a fault. See section 6.1.

5 CH operation

A room thermostat can be connected to the controller, if necessary, in combination with an outdoor sensor. See the electric wiring diagram of section 1.6. When heat is demanded by a thermostat signal, the blower runs (code 3 ) and the burner is ignited (code 4 ), followed by the CH operating condition (code 5 ).

During CH operation, the blower speed and hence the input rate of the appliance is adjusted. This is done in such a way that the temperature of the CH water is controlled towards the set CH supply temperature. In the case of on/off thermostat, the CH supply temperature is set at the operating panel and remains fixed. In the case of an outdoor sensor, the CH supply temperature will automatically adjust based on the outdoor air temperature and the outdoor reset function programmed by the user.

The CH supply temperature can be set between 86 °F (30°C) and 194 °F (90°C) and will be displayed on the operating panel. During CH operating mode, the set CH supply temperature is displayed on the operating panel, and the actual CH supply temperature can be read by pressing and holding the service

key

6 Domestic hot water operation

The hot water supply (HW) has priority over CH heating. When the flow switch detects a domestic hot water demand of more than 0.53 USGPM (2 l/min), the CH heating demand is interrupted. After starting the blower (code 3 ) and ignition of the burner (code 4 ), the controller goes to domestic hot water operation (code 6 ).

During domestic hot water operation, the blower speed and hence the input rate of the appliance is controlled based on the set domestic hot water temperature. The domestic hot water temperature can be set between 104 °F (40°C) and 149 °F (65°C). During DHW operating mode, the set domestic hot water temperature is displayed on the operating panel, and the actual domestic hot water supply temperature

can be read by pressing and holding the service key

7 Supply domestic hot water without time delay

For a quick supply of domestic hot water, a comfort function has been provided in the controller. This function keeps the heat exchanger at the correct temperature. This comfort function is set as per section

2.4.1 c. Code 7 is also displayed when appliance frost protection is active (see code - Off).

HSE Installation and Service Manual

2.2 PC INTERFACE

The controller has an interface for a PC. With a special cable and accompanying software, a PC can be connected. This provision makes it possible to follow the behaviour of the controller, the appliance and the heating system during a long period.

2.3 TEST PROGRAMS AND FROST PROTECTION

2.3.1 TEST PROGRAMS

2.4.6 OUTDOOR RESET FUNCTION

When the outdoor temperature sensor is connected, the appliance uses the outdoor reset function to control the CH supply water temperature. Outdoor reset automatically and continuously adjusts the CH supply temperature based on the outdoor air temperature following the reset ratio curve. The reset ratio is determined from entering the following parameters in the operating panel:

1. CH supply temperature at minimum outdoor temp (see section 2.4.1, #2.a)

2. minimum CH supply water

(see Table 8, parameter 5)

3. minimum outdoor temperature

(see Table 8, parameter 6)

4. maximum outdoor temperature

(see Table 8, parameter 7)

Figure 28 shows examples of the outdoor reset curves.

Note: Outdoor Reset Function cannot operate unless an outdoor temperature sensor is connected. If an outdoor temperature sensor is not connected, the outdoor reset function parameters will be ignored and the boiler will operate at the CH supply temperature setting (as per section 2.4.1, #2.a)

Startup Instructions Section 3

WARNING

If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

WARNING

Connect the appliance to the mains voltage only after filling and de-aerating!

WARNING

When an additive is added to the CH water, it must be suitable for use with the materials used in the appliance and system, such as copper, brass, stainless steel, steel, plastic and rubber.

3.1 CH SYSTEM OPERATING REQUIREMENTS

The CH system is designed for use in closed loop systems. Operating the CH system in an open system will not result in premature failure of the heat exchanger; however, it will result in premature failure some of the components which are not anti-corrosion type. Also, avoid unnecessary replenishment of CH system water. It can allow oxygen to enter the system and cause serious corrosion problems for parts which are not corrosion resistant. As well, minerals dissolved in a hard water supply will precipitate when heated and preferentially deposit in the heat exchanger. Therefore, do not draw water from the heating system for cleaning, flushing, etc.

The HSE is a condensing appliance with forced air combustion and therefore avoids the typical corrosion and draft problems associated with operating at a low return water temperature. To achieve better appliance efficiency, the system can be designed with a return water temperature of less than 135°F (57°C). A lower the return water temperature will result in higher the efficiency, however, ensure that there is no risk of system water freezing.

THE APPLIANCE MUST ALWAYS BE USED FOR HEATING SYSTEMS WITH FORCED WATER CIRCULATION.

3.2 PRE-STARTUP

Prefill the condensate trap with water as shown in Figure 30. IMPORTANT: The water must form a liquidfilled trap to prevent exhaust gases from escaping to the appliance room.

3.2.1 CH SYSTEM

1. Fill entire heating system with water to reach

appliance operating pressure (see section

1.4.1.4) and purge air from appliance using the manual air vent (A) as shown in Figure 29. Alternatively, an automatic air vent can be mounted on the appliance instead of the manual air vent. Water should be of suitable quality. Do not use water with high hardness.

2. Check all joints and repair any leaks in water

piping.

3. Check for proper installation of pressure relief

valve and discharge pipe.

Figure 29 Manual air vent

HSE Installation and Service Manual

4. Check that the electrical wiring matches the wiring diagram in this manual or on the appliance.

5. Operate circulating pump and vent the system at the highest points of the piping system. Fill the

CH system again if the pressure has dropped too low as a result of the de-aerating.

3.2.2 DHW SYSTEM

1. The DHW system can be connected to a storage hot

water tank. However, do not connect it with an indirect hot water tank or closed system.

2. De-aerate the heat exchanger and the pipe system by

opening hot water taps. Leave the tap open until all the air has been released from the system.

2. Check all joints for leaks.

3.2.3 GAS SUPPLY

1. This appliance is equipped for operation on Natural

Gas. If propane is used, convert the appliance using the propane conversion kit and following the conversion instructions in section 3.5.

2. De-aerate the gas pipe at the inlet pressure measuring

nipple which is located on the upstream of the gas valve. Do not release gas to the room. Remember that propane does not vent upward naturally.

3. Use a soap solution to check for leaks in gas piping between the meter and appliance gas valve.

Repair and retest if necessary.

4. Check that the inlet gas pressure matches with information on the rating plate.

3.3.2 STARTUP INSTRUCTIONS

In the event of failure of any component, either the system will not operate or it will go into safety lockout. After placing the appliance in operation, the ignition system safety shutoff device must be tested. The method of testing is specified as follows:

1) Make sure the gas valve and all electrical power to the appliance is "OFF".

2) Set room thermostat to the lowest setting.

3) Connect a manometer to the gas inlet pressure tapping located upstream of gas valve to check inlet gas pressure.

4) Wait five minutes to clear out any gas. If you smell gas, STOP! Follow the safety instructions provided in section 3.3.1 under WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS. Remember that propane does not vent upward naturally.

5) Check the ignition control as follows: a) Switch on the electrical power to the appliance. b) Turn manual shut off gas valve to OFF c) Set room thermostat above room temperature to call for heat and turn power on for the

appliance.

d) Watch/listen for sparking in the combustion chamber from the inspection hole on the left side

of appliance after a few seconds of pre-purge. If no flame is detected after four tries for ignition, the controller will automatically lockout and only restart the ignition sequence after

manual reset by pushing the reset

6) Turn manual shut off gas valve to ON. The burner should ignite.

7) Check for gas leaks at all joints, including upstream and downstream from gas valve.

8) Ensure that all other gas appliances are turned off, including their pilot flames.

9) Clock the input rate and adjust the inlet gas pressure to match with rating plate, as described in Table 11 of section 3.6.

10) Adjust gas-air ratio if necessary, as described in section 3.6.1.

11) Check for proper burner flame characteristics as described in section 3.4.

12) Heat the water in the heating system to the design temperature.

13) Set the required inputs for CH and DHW based on sections 2.4.2, 2.4.3 and 2.4.4. Check the temperature difference between the CH supply and return of the appliance. This should be less than 77°F (25°C). If necessary, change the pump position (if equipped with variable speed pump) and/or the manual shut off valve on the return or supply pipe.

button on the operating panel.

3.3.3 SEQUENCE OF CONTROL OPERATION

The sequence of control operation is as follows:

1) When power is first turned on, 120 Vac is provided to the controller, blower and pump.

2) On power-up the controller performs a self check.

3) When there is a call for heat, the controller checks whether the supply water temperature is below the set point. If it is, the blower will be energized and speed up to perform the pre-purge. The pump is also activated.

4) After the pre-purge, the controller energizes the spark, then gas valve. If the flame is proved, the controller enters the normal operating condition. If the flame is not proved, the controller will retry to light 3 more times. If a flame is still not established, the controller will lockout.

HSE Installation and Service Manual

5) After flame is established, the controller will modulate the firing rate depending upon the sensed difference between the supply and return water temperatures and the set point of supply temperature. If an outdoor temperature sensor is connected to the appliance, the heating supply water temperature setting will automatically adjust as the outdoor temperature changes.

6) Once the call for heat is satisfied, the controller shuts the burner off and, after performing a postpurge, shuts the pump off.

7) A demand for domestic hot water is given priority. If a call for DHW is received while the appliance is responding to a call for heat, the heating pump is de-energized until the call for DHW is satisfied.

3.4 CHECK BURNER SYSTEM

To maintain safe and efficient operation, examine the burner system regularly through the inspection window (item K on the “Major Components” diagram) on the left side of the appliance behind the cover.

Check condition of burner system

It is possible for parts of the burner system to become plugged, cracked, eroded and/or dislodged resulting in unsafe operation.

Check for lifting

Flames should not lift excessively from the burner. The flames may lift slightly during ignition or when the burner is cold.

Check ignition and extinction

Ignition should flow quickly and smoothly across the burner. Popping noises or explosions from the burner during ignition, extinction or abnormal burner operation indicates the need for service.

If any of the above problems are observed or the burner system does not operate properly, immediately take corrective action.

Check flame color

On high fire the flame should be stable and mostly blue. No yellow tipping should be present; however, intermittent flecks of yellow or orange in the flame are normal.

An extremely yellow flame, as seen on a burning candle or match, is an indication of incomplete combustion and is usually accompanied by the formation of soot, and carbon monoxide (carbon monoxide is a lethal, colorless and odorless gas). If soot is allowed to accumulate, it will partially restrict free passage of products of combustion to the flue. Under typical operating conditions, the flame should have a distinct bright blue inner cone and a blue/light orange outer cone.

HSE Installation and Service Manual

3.5 CONVERSION TO PROPANE

WARNING

This conversion should only be carried out by a qualified heating installer or service technician.

The appliance is factory equipped for operation at altitudes ranging from 0 to 2,000 feet (0 to 609 m) above sea level for USA and 0 to 4,500 feet (0 to 1370 m) above sea level for Canada. The appliance can be used for any altitude without changing any part however some adjustments may be required.

The conversion of an appliance from sea level to high altitude must be performed by a qualified heating installer, service technician or gas supplier and in accordance with the requirements of Section 1.2 of this manual. A conversion data label provided by manufacturer must be attached adjacent to the rating plate to indicate that the appliance has been converted for high altitude use. The correct conversion information must be entered on the conversion data plate by the installer.

To convert a sea level appliance for high altitude use, the reduced high altitude input rate can be achieved by changing the gas outlet pressure to match the value of CO following the procedure in section 3.6.1.

concentration in Table 11

HSE Installation and Service Manual

Use at Altitudes above 2000 feet (609 m) in U.S.A.

In USA, for appliance installations at altitudes above 2000 feet (609 m) above sea level, the input rating of the appliance should be reduced at the rate of 4 percent for each 1,000 feet (305 m) above sea level.

Use at Altitudes above 4500 feet (1370 m) in Canada

In Canada, for appliance installations at altitudes above 4500 feet (1370 m), the certified high altitude input rating of the appliance should be reduced at the rate of 4 percent for each additional 1,000 feet (305 m) over 4500 feet (1370 m) or consult local authorities for the input rate reduction.

After the appliance has been converted for high altitude use, the input rating must be verified following the input rating test as described in Section 3.8.

3.8 CHECK INPUT RATING

WARNING

Exceeding the allowable input rating can produce dangerous concentrations of carbon monoxide, and cause the appliance to overheat resulting in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage. Carbon monoxide is a lethal, colorless and odorless gas.

For safety, the input rating shown on the rating plate or specified input rating for high altitude as described in Section 3.7 must not be exceeded.

Input Rating Test

Consult the local Gas Company to determine the high heating value of the gas supplied in Btu per cubic feet. Operate appliance for 15 minutes starting with all parts at room temperature and check input by clocking gas meter with all other gas appliances turned off, including their pilot flames. Use the following formula:

INPUT (Btu/h) =

Timed) FeetCubic of (Volume x )Btu/cu.ft. in Gas of ValueHeating (High(3600) ×

Seconds in Time Clocked

To ensure accuracy, clock enough cubic feet of gas so that there is at least one revolution of the test dial and the clocked time is at least 60 seconds.

3.9 CHECK FOR CONTROLS

After the unit has been operated for a while, set the appliance to the maximum input rating as described in Section 3.6.1, step 15, and lower the water supply temperature setting below the actual appliance water temperature. The burner should shut off. Return the settings to their required design set points and make sure the appliance cycles normally. Repeat this type of check on the safety high-limit aquastat, thermostat and other system controls to ensure all work satisfactorily. If any of the safety controls do not function, necessary corrections should be made immediately.

3.10 CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS

To identify gas leaks, smell for gas around appliance area and gas piping connections (See Section

3.3.1). To check a specific area, including all pipe joints connected to the gas valve, for leakage, spray a

mixture of soap and water onto the suspected area – active bubbling indicates a gas leak. The gas leaks of the joint connected to the gas valve outlet should be checked when the appliance is on. DO NOT TEST FOR LEAKS WITH AN OPEN FLAME. Gas leaks must be repaired immediately.

3.11 CHECK THE CONDENSATE TRAP

Check that the condensate drain trap, neutralizer (when used), and condensate tube loop (when used) are properly connected. The water should fill the trap to form a liquid-filled trap and not be plugged with excessive sediment. See section 3.2.
