CHAPTER 1 - PRE-INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
1.1. Code Compliance
The PRESTIGE Solo must be installed by a qualied installer in accordance with the following:
• All applicable local, state, national and provincial codes, ordinances, regulations and laws.
• For installations in Massachusetts, code requires
the PRESTIGE Solo to be installed by a licensed
plumber or gas tter, and if antifreeze is utilized,
the installation of a reduced pressure back-ow
preventer device is required in the boiler’s cold
water ll or make up water supply line.
• For installation in Massachusetts, all direct vented
appliances must comply with the guidelines as
outlined in Section 2.8 on page 8.
• The National Fuel Gas Code (NFPA54/ ANSI Z
223.1).
• National Electric Code (ANSI/NFPA 70).
• For installations in Canada - Installation Code for
Gas Burning Equipment (CAN/CSA B149.1), Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 (CSA C22.1).
• Standards for Controls and Safety Devices for
Automatically Fired Boilers (ANSI/ASME CSD-1),
when required.
NOTICE
The boiler gas manifold and gas controls meet
the safe lighting and other performance re-
quirements as specified in ANSI Z21.13.
1.2. Determining Product Location
NOTICE
The PRESTIGE Solo is certified for indoor,
conditioned space installations ONLY.
Before locating the PRESTIGE Solo check for convenient
locations to:
• Heating system piping
• Venting
• Gas supply piping
• Electrical service
Ensure the PRESTIGE Solo location allows the combustion air/vent piping to be routed directly through the
building and terminate properly outside with a minimum amount of length and bends.
Ensure the area chosen for the installation of the PRESTIGE
Solo is free of any combustible materials, gasoline, or other ammable liquids.
WARNING
Failure to remove or maintain the area free
of combustible materials, gasoline, or other flammable liquids or vapors can result in
substantial property damage, serious injury,
or death.
Ensure the PRESTIGE Solo and its controls are protected
from dripping or spraying water during normal operation or service.
The PRESTIGE Solo should be installed in a location so
that any water leaking from the boiler, piping connections, or relief valve will not cause damage to the surrounding area or any lower oors in the structure.
CHAPTER 1

CHAPTER 1 - PRE-INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
CHAPTER 1
1.3. Boiler Freeze Protection Feature
The CTRLMax boiler management system has a freeze
protection feature built in. This feature monitors the
boiler water temperature and responds as follows
when no call for heat is present:
• 46ºF [8ºC] Pump outputs congured to respond to
a CH1 Call are enabled.
• 42ºF [6ºC] Pump outputs congured to respond to
a CH1 or CH2 Call are enabled, Burner operates at
low re.
• 60ºF [15ºC] Freeze protection ends. Burner & all
pumps turn o after completing CH Post Pump Time.
CAUTION
• The boiler freeze protection feature is disabled during a hard lockout. The burner
will not fire, but the circulators will operate.
• The boiler freeze protection feature is designed to protect the boiler, not the heating
system. The boiler should be installed in a
primary/secondary piping arrangement if it
is installed in an unheated space or exposed
to water temperatures of 46ºF or less. Refer
to Chapter 4 for primary/secondary and
Chapter 10 for antifreeze guides.
• Failure to comply can result in minor prop-
erty damage, or injury.
1.4. Boiler Replacement
If the PRESTIGE Solo is replacing an existing boiler, the
following items should be checked and corrected prior
to installation:
• Boiler piping leaks and corrosion.
• Proper location and sizing of the expansion
tank on the boiler heating loop.
• The existing vent system is appropriate for the
PRESTIGE Solo and it is correctly installed. Refer
to the PRESTIGE Vent Supplement for the vent
system requirements.
• Amount and quality of propylene glycol within
the system, if applicable.
1.5. Recommended Clearances
The PRESTIGE Solo is approved for zero clearance to
combustibles, excluding vent and boiler piping.
• Boiler piping must be a minimum 1/4 inch from
combustible materials.
• Reference the PRESTIGE Vent Supplement for
vent pipe clearance requirements.
BEST PRACTICE
It is recommended that the following clearances
be maintained for serviceability:
• Top boiler jacket - 24 inches [610 mm].
• Front - 24 inches [610 mm].
• Bottom boiler piping - 24 inches [610 mm].
• Rear - 0 inches
• Sides - 6 inches [153 mm]
NOTICE
When maintaining less than recommended
service clearances, some product labeling, including the rating label, may become hidden
and unreadable.
WARNING
• If the recommended clearances listed above cannot be maintained
or the enclosure in which the boiler is installed is less than 85 cubic
feet, the space must be ventilated.
See Section 2.2 on page 4.
• When installing the PRESTIGE Solo in a confined space, sufficient air must be provided
to allow, under normal operating conditions, proper air flow around the product
to maintain ambient temperatures within
safe limits to comply with the National Fuel
Gas Code (NFPA 54 / ANSI Z223.1)
• Failure to comply with these instructions
can result in substantial property dam-
age, serious injury, or death.
1.6. Residential Garage Installations
When installing the PRESTIGE Solo in a residential garage, the following special precautions per NFPA 54/
ANSI Z223.1 must be taken:
• Mount the unit a minimum 18 inches [458 mm]
above the oor level of the garage. Ensure the
burner and ignition devices / controls are no less
than 18 inches [458 mm] above the oor level.
• Locate or protect the unit in a manner so it cannot be damaged by a moving vehicle.

another location. Contaminated combustion
air will damage the unit and its burner system,
and can result in substantial property damage,
serious injury, or death.
DANGER
• Do not operate the PRESTIGE Solo if the
combustion air inlet is located near a laundry room or pool facility. These areas will
always contain hazardous contaminants.
• Pool, laundry, 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 will corrode the heat exchanger,
burner components, and vent system,
causing serious damage and possible
flue gas spillage or water leakage into
the surrounding area.
• Please read the information listed below.
If contaminating chemicals are located
near the area of the combustion air inlet,
the installer must pipe the combustion
air inlet to an area free of these chemicals,
as indicated in Chapter 5 on page 25.

CHAPTER 2
2.2. Ventilation and Combustion Air Requirements - Direct Vent
A Direct Vent appliance utilizes uncontaminated outdoor air piped directly to the appliance for combustion.
For Direct Vent installations involving only the PRESTIGE Solo, in which the minimum service clearances are
maintained as listed in Section 1.5 on page 2, no
ventilation openings are required, but may be necessary to equalize the air pressure with the outside.
For Direct Vent installations involving only the PRESTIGE
Solo, in which the minimum service clearances are not
maintained as listed in Section 1.5 on page 2, the
space / enclosure must provide two openings for ventilation. The openings must be sized to provide 1 square
inch of free area per 1,000 BTUH of boiler input. The
openings shall be placed 12 inches from the top of the
space and 12 inches from the oor of the space.
For installations in which the PRESTIGE Solo shares the
space with air movers (exhaust fan, clothes dryers, replaces, etc.) and other combustion equipment (gas
or oil) the space must be provided with adequate air
openings to provide ventilation and combustion air to
the equipment. To properly size the ventilation / combustion air openings, the installer must comply with the
National Fuel Gas Code (NFPA 54 / ANSI Z223.1) for installations in the U.S. or CAN/CSA B149.1 for installations
in Canada.
WARNING
The space must be provided with ventilation
/ combustion air openings properly sized for
all make-up air requirements (exhaust fans,
clothes dryers, fireplaces, etc.) and the total
input of all appliances located in the same
space as the PRESTIGE Solo, excluding the input of a Direct Vent PRESTIGE Solo which uses
combustion air directly from the outside,
thus additional free area for the openings is
not required. Failure to provide or properly
size the openings can result in substantial
property damage, serious injury, or death.
2.3. Ventilation and Combustion Air Requirements - Category IV
A Category IV appliance utilizes uncontaminated indoor
or outdoor air surrounding the appliance for combustion.
BEST PRACTICE
In order to reduce the potential risks associated
with indoor contaminates (see list in Section
2.1 on page 3), flammable vapors and tight
housing construction with little or no infiltration
air, it is recommended to pipe uncontaminated
combustion air directly from the outdoors to
the appliance. This practice also promotes higher system efficiency by reducing heated indoor
air from being exhausted from the house and
replaced by cold infiltration air into the house.
For installations in which the PRESTIGE Solo shares the
space with air movers (exhaust fan, clothes dryers, replaces, etc.) and other combustion equipment (gas
or oil) the space must be provided with adequate air
openings to provide ventilation and combustion air to
the equipment. To properly size the ventilation / combustion air openings, the installer must comply with
the National Fuel Gas Code (NFPA 54 / ANSI Z223.1) for
installations in the U.S. or CAN/ CSA B149.1 for installations in Canada.
WARNING
The space must be provided with ventilation
/ combustion air openings properly sized for
all make-up air requirements (exhaust fans,
clothes dryers, fireplaces, etc.) and the total
input of all appliances, including the PRESTIGE Solo when located in the same space.
Failure to provide or properly size the openings can result in substantial property dam-
age, serious injury, or death.

2.5. Combustion Air and Vent Piping
The PRESTIGE Solo requires a Category IV venting system, which is designed for pressurized venting and
condensate.
The PRESTIGE Solo is certied as a Category IV or Direct
Vent (sealed combustion) appliance. A Category IV appliance utilizes uncontaminated indoor or outdoor air
surrounding the appliance for combustion. A Direct Vent
appliance utilizes uncontaminated outdoor air piped directly to the appliance for combustion.
DANGER
Do not install the PRESTIGE Solo into a common vent with any other gas or oil appliances.
This will cause flue gas spillage or appliance
malfunction, which will result in substantial
property damage, serious injury, or death.

CHAPTER 2 - COMBUSTION AIR & VENTING
BEST PRACTICE
In order to reduce the potential risks associated with indoor contaminates (see list in Section
2.1 on page 3), flammable vapors and tight
housing construction with little or no infiltration
air, it is recommended to pipe uncontaminated
combustion air directly from the outdoors to the
appliance. This practice also promotes higher
system efficiency by reducing heated indoor air
from being exhausted from the house and re-
placed by cold infiltration air into the house.
DANGER
Verify installed combustion air and vent piping are sealed gas tight and meet all provided
instructions and applicable codes, failure to
comply will result in serious injury, or death.
WARNING
Failure to properly support the vent system
can cause the venting system to fail, resulting in substantial property damage, serious
injury, or death.
NOTICE
Install combustion air and vent pipe as detailed
in the PRESTIGE Vent Supplement included in
the boiler installation envelope. Refer to optional vent kit instructions for additional vent
installation instructions.
2.6. Removal of an Existing Boiler from a
Common Vent System
BEST PRACTICE
When an existing boiler is removed from a common venting system, the common venting system
is likely to be too large for proper venting of the remaining appliances. At the time of removal of an
existing boiler, 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.
1. Seal any unused openings in the common venting
system.
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper size
and horizontal pitch and determine there is no
blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and other
deciencies which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. Insofar as is practical:
• Close all exterior 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 replace dampers.
4. Place in operation the appliance being inspected.
• Follow the lighting instructions.
• Adjust thermostat so 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, cigar or pipe.
6. 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, replace
dampers, and any other gas-burning appliance to
their previous condition of use.
7. Any improper operation of the common venting system should be corrected so the installation conforms
with the National Fuel Gas Code (NFPA 54 / ANSI
Z223.1) for installations in the U.S. or CAN/CSA B149.1
for installations in Canada. When resizing 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 Chapter 13 of the National Fuel Gas Code
(NFPA 54 / ANSI Z223.1) for installations in the U.S. or
CAN/CSA B149.1 for installations in Canada.
DANGER
Do not install the PRESTIGE Solo into a common vent with any other gas or oil appliances.
This will cause flue gas spillage or appliance
malfunction, resulting in substantial proper-
ty damage, serious injury, or death.

Use one wrench to prevent the boiler connections from turning and the second to tighten
field piping. Failure to support the boiler piping connections could damage piping, causing
a leak, resulting in substantial property dam-
age, serious injury, or death.
4.2. Pressure Relief Valve
1. The PRESTIGE Solo is supplied with a 30 psi pressure
relief valve and must be piped using the PRV con-
nection as shown in Fig. 5 below.
2. To avoid potential water damage to the surrounding area or potential scalding hazard due to the operation of the relief valve, the discharge piping:
• Must be connected to the discharge outlet of the
relief valve and directed to a safe place of disposal.
• Length should be as short and direct as possible.
The size of the discharge line must not be reduced,
maintain the same size as the outlet of the relief
valve.
• Must be directed downward towards the oor
at all times. The piping should terminate at
least 6 inches [153 mm] above any drain connection to allow clear visibility of the discharge.
• Must terminate with a plain end, not with a threaded
end. The material of the piping must have a serviceable temperature rating of 250ºF or greater.
• Must not be subject to conditions where freez-
ing could occur.
• Must not contain any shut-o valves or ob-
structions. No shut-o valve should be piped
between the boiler and relief valve.

4.3. Boiler Air Vent
NOTICE
This boiler is supplied with a special automatic air vent that will provide reliable operation
in purging air from the boiler. The hygroscopic
cap supplied with the automatic air vent MUST
remain tight at all times on the air vent body.
The hygroscopic cap has a membrane which
expands upon contact with water and seals
the air vent until the membrane dries up due to
new air forming in the air vent.
1. Make sure to fully tighten the cap on the air vent
during initial installation.
2. Never loosen the hygroscopic cap to allow air to escape
the air vent. Air will exit with the cap fully tightened in
place.
3. If the hygroscopic cap is not fully tightened, water
may leak from the cap. Simply tighten the cap securely.
4.4. Low Water Cutoff Device
• The PRESTIGE Solo is equipped with a factory installed pressure sensor type Low Water Cut O
(LWCO).
• The minimum operating system pressure is 10 psig.
• Check local codes if a Low Water Cuto is required.
If so, determine if this device meets their requirements.
NOTICE
The PRESTIGE Solo control system also senses the water temperatures entering and exiting the heat exchanger to provide protection
against low water conditions. Where local
codes and jurisdiction do not accept a pressure
device for low water protection, the jurisdiction
may accept this PRESTIGE Solo integral control
function as a means of providing low water
protection.

4.5. Additional Limit Control
If a separate Low Water Cut O (LWCO) is required by
the local jurisdiction or when the boiler is installed
above the system piping, the following guidelines
must be followed:
• The LWCO must be designed for water installations,
electrode probe-type is recommended.
• The LWCO must be installed in a tee connection on
the boiler supply piping above the boiler.
• Wiring of the LWCO to the PRESTIGE Solo is done
directly onto the low voltage terminal strip. Reference Fig. 21 on page 35 for available external
limit (manual or auto reset) terminals.
If the installation is to comply with ASME or Canadian
requirements, an additional high temperature limit
may be required. Consult local code requirements to
determine compliance. The limit should be installed as
follows:
• Install the limit in the boiler supply piping between
the boiler and any isolation valve.
• Consult heat exchanger for maximum temperature
set point.
• For wiring of the limit, reference Fig. 21 on page
35. Wire the limit to the manual reset terminals
on the low voltage terminal strip. An open manual
reset limit will require a manual reset of the control.
4.6. Backflow Preventer
• Use a backow preventer valve in the make-up water supply to the unit as required by local codes.
4.7. Boiler System Piping Applications
BEST PRACTICE
• It is recommended on all piping applica-
tions to utilize a primary/secondary piping
arrangement as a means to provide freeze
protection of the boiler, which is an integral
function of the boiler control. Maintain at
least the minimum boiler flow rate shown
in the Graphs of Chapter 19 on page 87.
For other piping arrangements, contact
Triangle Tube Technical Support or consult other approved/recognized design ar-
rangements.
• On piping applications utilizing a single zone
or other recognized piping design arrangements, it is recommended that the installer
uses flow/check valves with weighted seats at
or near the PRESTIGE Solo to prevent gravity
circulation.

5 gallons [19 L] for the PRESTIGE Solo 155/175/250, 7
gallons [26 L] for PRESTIGE Solo 299/399), the system
water volume, and the system water temperature.
CAUTION
Undersized expansion tanks will cause system
water to be lost through the pressure relief
valve and cause additional makeup water to be
added to the system. Eventual boiler heat exchanger failure can result due to this excessive
makeup water addition.
The expansion tank must be located as shown in Fig.
7 on page 15 and Fig. 8 below, when using a prima-
ry/secondary piping arrangement or as per recognized
design methods. Refer to the expansion tank manufacturer for additional installation details.
Connect the expansion tank to an air separator only if
the air separator is located on the suction side (inlet)
of the system circulator. Always locate and install the
system ll connection at the same location as the expansion tank connection to the system.
4.8.1 Diaphragm Expansion Tank
Always install an automatic air vent on top of the air
separator to remove residual air from the system.
4.8.2 Closed-Type Expansion Tank
It is recommended to pitch any horizontal piping upwards toward the expansion tank 1 inch per 5 feet of
piping. Use 3/4” piping to the expansion tank to allow
air within the system to rise.
NOTICE
DO NOT install automatic air vents on a closedtype expansion tank system. Air must remain
in the system and be returned to the expansion
tank to provide an air cushion. An automatic
air vent would cause air to be vented from the
system resulting in a water-logged expansion
tank.

CHAPTER 4 - BOILER PIPING
4.9. Circulator
A circulator with ow check must be utilized with the
PRESTIGE Solo. The circulator, when wired directly to
the PRESTIGE Solo, will allow for domestic hot water priority and provide circulation for the freeze protection
feature of the boiler control. See the Graphs in Chapter
19 on page 87 for pressure drop and minimum ow
rate through the boiler.
4.10. Sizing Primary Piping
See Fig. 9 on page 18 through Fig. 13 on page 22, for
recommended piping arrangements based on various
applications. Size the piping and system components
required in the space heating system using recognized
design methods.
4.11. Domestic Hot Water System Piping
See Fig. 9 on page 18 through Fig. 12 on page 21
for recommended piping to a DHW system. This recommended piping conguration ensures priority is
given to the production and recovery of DHW.
The piping for DHW is separate from the boiler system
piping and does not require a primary / secondary piping conguration.
To wire the DHW circulator to the boiler control module, reference Chapter 8 on page 35.
4.12. System Piping - Zone Circulators
4.13. System Piping - Zone Valves
Connect the PRESTIGE Solo to the system piping as
shown in Fig. 10 on page 19 when zoning with zone
valves.
NOTICE
To ensure an adequate flow rate through the
PRESTIGE Solo, the boiler supply and return
piping size must be a minimum of 1 inch for the
PRESTIGE Solo 80/110, 1-1/4 inch for the PRESTIGE Solo 155/175/250 and 1-1/2 inch for the
PRESTIGE Solo 299/399.
4.14. System Piping - Through Boiler
Primary / secondary piping is preferred, but is not required for smaller systems (1 to 3 zones) provided that
at least the minimum ow rate through the boiler is
maintained at all times. The circulator must be sized
to overcome the pressure drop through the system as
well as the Prestige Solo. See the Graphs in Chapter 19
on page 87 for pressure drop and minimum ow rate
through the boiler.
Fig. 11 on page 20 illustrates a multiple zone valve
system with a single system/boiler circulator. A by-pass
loop with a pressure dierential valve must be installed
on the system piping.
Fig. 12 on page 21 illustrates a single zone system utilizing the boiler circulator as the system circulator.
CHAPTER 4
Connect the PRESTIGE Solo to the system piping as
shown in Fig. 9 on page 18 when zoning with zone
circulators.
The installer must provide a separate circulator for each
zone of space heating.
NOTICE
To ensure an adequate flow rate through the
PRESTIGE Solo, the boiler supply and return
piping size must be a minimum of 1 inch for the
PRESTIGE Solo 80/110, 1-1/4 inch for the PRESTIGE Solo 155/175/250 and 1-1/2 inch for the

Fig. 13 - Multiple PRESTIGE Solo Boiler Piping - Primary / Secondary
CHAPTER 4 - BOILER PIPING
4.15. System Piping - Radiant Heating
The heat exchanger design of the PRESTIGE Solo allows
operation in a condensing mode. This feature requires
no regulation of the return water temperature back to
the boiler in radiant heating applications.
The design and construction of the PRESTIGE Solo heat
exchanger allows the installation of the boiler on systems with non - oxygen barrier tubing.
NOTICE
DO NOT install a SMART indirect water
heater along with the PRESTIGE Solo in systems with non-oxygen barrier tubing. Failure
to comply will result in premature failure of the
SMART indirect water heater.
The boiler water supply temperature can be maintained
by the PRESTIGE Solo, potentially eliminating the need
for a mixing system to achieve the desired temperature
if all zones of heat require the same temperature set
point.
It is recommended to install a high temperature limit to
ensure that the primary supply temperature does not
exceed the maximum allowable temperature for the
radiant tubing.
4.16. System Piping - Special Application
If the boiler is used in conjunction with a chilled water/
medium system, the boiler and chiller must be piped in
parallel. Install ow/check valves to prevent the chilled
medium from entering the boiler.
If the boiler is used to supply hot water to the heating
coils of an air handler where they may be exposed to
chilled air circulation, install ow/check valves or other
automatic devices to prevent gravity circulation of the
boiler water during cooling cycles.
4.17. System Piping - Multiple Units Installation
Use a balanced manifold system as the primary / secondary connection to the space heating piping as
shown in Fig. 13 on page 22.
For the space heating piping, refer to the applications
mentioned in this manual or use recognized design
methods.
CHAPTER 4
NOTICE
The addition of a high temperature limit is important if the PRESTIGE Solo is connected to a
domestic hot water system, which requires a
high primary supply water temperature.
Size the system piping and circulator to provide the
ow needed for the radiant system.
NOTICE
To ensure an adequate flow rate through the
PRESTIGE Solo, the boiler supply and return
piping size must be a minimum of 1 inch for the
PRESTIGE Solo 80/110, 1-1/4 inch for the PRESTIGE Solo 155/175/250 and 1-1/2 inch for the
PRESTIGE Solo 299/399.

CHAPTER 5 - INSTALLING VENT/COMBUSTION AIR & CONDENSATE DRAIN
5.1. Installing Vent and Combustion Air
WARNING
DANGER
The PRESTIGE Solo must be vented and supplied with combustion air as shown in the
PRESTIGE Vent Supplement, included in the
installation envelope. Refer to instructions
for parts list and method of installation.
Once installation is completed, inspect the
vent and combustion air system thoroughly
to ensure systems are airtight, properly supported, and comply with the instructions given in the venting supplement and are within
all requirements of applicable codes. Failure
to comply with the venting and combustion
air piping installation requirements will result in substantial property damage, serious
injury, or death.
NOTICE
Contact Triangle Tube for other venting options
including PVC Concentric Vent/Air Termination
and Stainless Steel or PVC Flush Mount Horizontal Terminations. Refer to the instructions includ-
ed with these kits for method of installation.
5.2. Installing Condensate Drain Assembly
1. Locate the condensate drain assembly and ensure
the metal washer is installed as shown in Fig. 14 on
page 26.
NOTICE
The installer may want to fill the condensate
drain assembly with water prior to assembling
on the unit.
• Ensure installation of the condensate
drain assembly included the metal washer. Failure to comply could result in the
assembly dislocating from the boiler. Dislocation of the condensate drain assembly can result in property damage, seri-
ous injury, or death.
• Ensure the condensate drain assembly
contains the plastic ball. Do not install
the condensate drain assembly if the ball
is lost or missing, replace the entire assembly. Installing the condensate drain
assembly without the plastic ball can result in substantial property damage, seri-
ous injury, or death.
4. Remove the compression nut and rubber seal from
the condensate drain assembly drain outlet.
5. Slide the compression nut and rubber seal over the
3/4” x 2’ exible tube provided.
NOTICE
The use of 3/4” PVC or CPVC pipe is also acceptable. If 3/4” pipe is used, deburr and chamfer
pipe to allow mating onto the drain assembly.
6. Thread the rubber seal into the compression nut
to ease installation of the tube to the condensate
drain assembly.
7. Seat the tube onto the condensate drain assembly
and tighten the compression nut. Hand tight only!
NOTICE
• The installer may opt to use 13/16” ID tub-
ing in lieu of provided tube.
CHAPTER 5
WARNING
Do not operate the boiler without the factory-supplied condensate drain assembly
installed. Operation of the boiler without
the condensate drain assembly installed can
result in property damage, serious injury, or
death.
2. Install the condensate drain assembly on the boiler
condensate drain by pushing the condensate drain
assembly up until it stops.
3. Tighten the condensate drain assembly retaining
nut.
• The drain line materials must be an approved material by the authority having
jurisdiction. In absence of such authority,
PVC and CPVC piping must comply with
ASTM D1785 or D2845. The cement and
primer used on the piping must comply
with ASME D2564 or F493. For installations
in Canada, use ULC certified PVC or CPVC
pipe, fittings and cement/primer.
2525
CHAPTER 5 - INSTALLING VENT/COMBUSTION AIR & CONDENSATE DRAIN
8. Route the tube from the condensate drain assembly to a oor drain or condensate pump.
WARNING
CHAPTER 5
NOTICE
When selecting and installing a condensate
pump, ensure the pump is approved for use
with condensing appliances. The pump should
be equipped with an overflow switch to prevent
property damage from potential condensate
spillage.
9. The PRESTIGE Solo will typically produce a condensate that is considered slightly acidic with a pH content below 4.0. Install a neutralizing lter if required
by authority having jurisdiction.
The condensate drain assembly must remain
filled with water. Extended periods of non
use or high temperature operation may allow
the water to evaporate. Periodically check
the water level in the condensate drain assembly and fill with water as necessary. Failure to keep the condensate drain assembly
full of water can result in substantial proper-
ty damage, serious injury, or death.
CAUTION
The condensate drain assembly must remain
unobstructed and allow unrestricted flow of
condensate. The condensate should not be
subject to conditions where freezing could occur. If the condensate is subjected to freezing
or becomes obstructed , it can leak, resulting in
potential water damage to the boiler and sur-
rounding area.

4. Support the gas piping using hangers. Do not support the piping by the unit or its components.
5. Purge all air from the gas supply piping.
6. Before placing the PRESTIGE Solo into operation,
check and test all connections for leaks.
• Close the manual shuto valve during any pres-
sure test with less than 13”w.c..
• Disconnect the PRESTIGE Solo and its gas valve
from the gas supply piping during any pressure
test greater than 13”w.c..
WARNING
Do not check for gas leaks with an open
flame. Use a gas detection device or bubble
test. Failure to check for gas leaks can cause
substantial property damage, serious injury,
or death.
7. Use pipe dope compatible with natural and propane gases. Apply sparingly only to the male
threads of pipe joints so that pipe dope does not
block gas ow.
WARNING
• Failure to apply pipe dope as detailed
above can result in substantial property
damage, serious injury, or death.
• Use a two-wrench method when tightening field piping onto the boiler piping
connections. Use one wrench to prevent
the boiler connections from turning and

3. The unit is provided with a service switch located
on the front panel, check local code requirements
for compliance.
8.3. Circulator Wiring
1. The circulator connections used will depend on
the systems piping layout. See Fig. 9 on page 18
through Fig. 12 on page 21 for common system
piping applications and associated circulator wiring. Consult the CTRLMax Control Supplement for
additional options.
NOTICE
The circulator, flame, and ignition transformer outputs are protected by fuses on the CTRLMax control module. The total combined amp
draw of the CH, DHW, and Flame outputs must
not exceed 4 amps at any time for the Solo 80
through 250, or 3 amps at any time for the Solo
299 & 399. The total combined amp draw of the
P3, P4, and ignition transformer outputs must
not exceed 5 amps at any time for all Prestige
models. Use an isolation relay to lower the total
combined amp draw if exceeding this limits.
2. Connect the CH circulator wiring to the line voltage
terminals located internally in the lower right corner, as
shown in Fig. 21 on the left. This circulator is typically
used to supply heat to the central/space heating loop.
3. Connect the DHW circulator wiring to the line voltage
terminals located internally in the lower right corner,
as shown in Fig. 21 on the left. This circulator is typically
used to supply heat to an indirect hot water heater.
4. Connect the P3 circulator wiring to the line voltage
terminals located internally in the lower right corner, as shown in Fig. 21 on the left. This circulator is
typically used to circulate water through the PRESTIGE Solo in primary/secondary piped systems.
5. Connect the P4 circulator wiring to the line voltage terminals located internally in the lower right corner, as shown
in Fig. 21 on the left. This circulator is typically used as a
dedicated circulator to a second space heating zone.
Fig. 21 - Terminal Strip Location
NOTICE
If local electrical codes require an additional service
switch, the installer must provide and install a fused
disconnect or minimum 15 amp service switch.
8.4. Flame Status & Alarm Wiring
NOTICE
The Flame and Alarm outputs both supply
110VAC when activated. Use an isolation relay
to provide dry contacts if required by the exter-
nal monitoring system.
The Flame output is typically used to provide on/o status to an external monitoring system. The Flame output will provide 0VAC when the PRESTIGE Solo is not
red and 110VAC when the PRESTIGE Solo is red.
CHAPTER 8
3535
CHAPTER 8 - EXTERNAL WIRING
An unused circulator output can be congured in the Installer Menu to provide an alarm output. The Alarm output
is typically used to provide lockout status to an external
monitoring system. The Alarm output will provide 0VAC
when the PRESTIGE Solo is not in a lockout and 110VAC
when the PRESTIGE Solo is in a lockout. The types of lockouts which will cause the Alarm output to activate are adjustable in the Installer Menu. Consult the CTRLMax Control Supplement for information on this setting.
1. Connect the external monitoring device to the line
voltage terminals located internally in the lower
right corner, as shown in Fig. 21 on page 35.
NOTICE
The circulator, flame, and ignition transformer outputs are protected by fuses on the CTRLMax control
module. The total combined amp draw of the CH,
DHW, and Flame outputs must not exceed 4 amps
at any time for the Solo 80 through 250, or 3 amps at
any time for the Solo 299 & 399. The total combined
amp draw of the P3, P4, and ignition transformer
outputs must not exceed 5 amps at any time for all
Prestige models. Use an isolation relay to lower the
total combined amp draw if exceeding these limits..
8.5. Low Voltage Connections
Line and Low Voltage wiring should be separated to
prevent possible electrical noise on the low voltage circuits. Line and Low Voltage wiring should use separate
electrical knockouts on the PRESTIGE Solo cabinet and
should remain separated inside the PRESTIGE Solo.
NOTICE
CH and DHW call connections to the PRESTIGE Solo require a dry contact with no external
voltage present. Ensure no external voltage is
present on each set of wires before connecting
to the PRESTIGE Solo. If external voltage is present, the use of an isolation relay is required to
prevent damage to the CTRLMax controller.
8.6. Thermostat Wiring
The CTRLMax control has two thermostat call inputs for
multiple zone / temperature systems. This allows each
call to have its own outdoor reset curve and maximizes
the eciency of the system.
NOTICE
Simultaneous CH1 and CH2 calls will result
in the PRESTIGE Solo operating at the highest
target temperature. The use of a mixing device
on the lower temperature zone(s) may be required to protect the lower temperature zone(s)
from damage. The CTRLMax control includes a
mixing valve function which can operate a mixing valve in a dual temperature system. Consult
the CTRLMax Control Supplement for addition-
al information on this function. .
1. Connect the room thermostat or dry contact zone
valve end switch wires to low voltage terminals X63&4 or X5-5&6 located at the bottom of the CTRLMax control module as shown in Fig 22 below.
2. Follow thermostat manufacturer’s instructions for
proper installation. Thermostat should be located
on an inside wall away from any heat or cold inuences such as drafts, lights, replaces, etc.
3. Set the thermostat anticipator (If applicable) as follows:
• Set for 0.2 amps when wired directly to the
PRESTIGE Solo.
• Set to match the electrical power requirements
of the connected device when wired to zone
relays or other devices. Refer to the relay manufacturer’s specications and the thermostat
instructions for additional information on anticipator setting.

NOTICE
The use of power stealing thermostats
which draw their power from the PRESTIGE Solo
can lead to erratic or unpredictable operation.
CHAPTER 8 - EXTERNAL WIRING
8.7. Outdoor Sensor Wiring
The Outdoor Reset function and Warm Weather Shutdown (WWSD) features require the connection of the
included outdoor temperature sensor. See Chapter 12
on page 63 for outdoor sensor installation and setup.
8.8. Domestic Hot Water Wiring
The Domestic Hot Water terminals can accept either a
call from an aquastat (thermostat) or temperature sensor. Use of the included indirect water heater sensor is
recommended.
1. Connect the DHW aquastat or temperature sensor wires to low voltage terminals X4-1&2 located
at the bottom of the CTRLMax control module as
shown in Fig. 22 on page 36.
8.9. Additional Boiler Limits
Additional boiler limits (High Temperature Limit, LWCO,
etc.) can be wired into either the Manual Reset Limit or
Auto Reset Limit terminals of the PRESTIGE Solo. These
limit connections will provide a “hard” lockout requiring
a manual reset of the PRESTIGE Solo or a “soft” lockout in
which the PRESTIGE Solo will automatically reset when
the limit resets.
A Manual Reset External Limit Open (E87) lockout will
occur anytime the manual reset terminals are open. An
Auto Reset External Limit Open (76) lockout will not occur until just before ignition when the auto reset terminals are open. The Auto Reset terminals should be used
for any type of burner interlock such as a combustion
air louver or water ow proving switch.
NOTICE
• The Manual Reset Limit and Auto Reset
Limit terminals are located on the lower
right corner of the CTRLMax control module housing.
• Manual Reset Limit and Auto Reset Limit
connections to the PRESTIGE Solo require a
dry contact with no external voltage present. Ensure no external voltage is present
on each set of wires before connecting to
the PRESTIGE Solo. If external voltage is
present, the use of an isolation relay is required to prevent damage to the CTRLMax
controller.
1. Remove the factory-installed brown jumper wire at
the Manual Reset Limit terminals that will accept
the additional boiler limit.
2. Remove the factory-installed orange jumper wire at
the Auto Reset Limit terminals that will accept the
additional boiler limit.
3. Connect the external limit wires to the Manual Reset Limit or Auto Reset Limit low voltage terminals
located on the lower right corner of the CTRLMax
control module housing as shown in Fig. 22 on
page 36.
8.10. External Modulation Control
The PRESTIGE Solo ring rate can be controlled by an
external modulating boiler controller. See Chapter 13
on page 65 for external modulation signal wiring and
setup.
8.11. System Sensor Wiring
An optional system temperature sensor can be placed
on the central heating loop to control the temperature
in the central heating loop instead of the boiler loop.
When connected, the PRESTIGE Solo will automatically modulate to maintain the target temperature in the
central heating loop. The boiler supply temperature
sensor will continue to be used as a high temperature
limit.
CAUTION
Locate the system temperature sensor
where it can accurately measure the supply
temperature to the heating system. Inaccurate system temperature readings could lead
to overheating or under heating resulting in
property damage.
1. Connect the system temperature sensor wires to
low voltage terminals X5-3&4 located at the bottom of the CTRLMax control module as shown in
Fig. 22 on page 36.

CHAPTER 10 - START-UP PREPARATION
NOTICE
Requirements below must be met for warranty
coverage of Prestige Solo heat exchangers. A
thorough cleaning of any existing system, using approved heating system cleaning agents
is required prior to installation of the Prestige
Solo boiler. System should be treated with an
approved inhibitor after filling for long term
protection.
10.1. Boiler System Fluid Requirements
WARNING
Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds in the boiler system. Damage to seals and gaskets in the system components can occur, resulting in substantial
property damage, serious injury, or death.
Chapter 10
10.1.3 Chlorinated Water
Do not use the PRESTIGE Solo to heat a swimming pool
or spa directly.
Maintain the chlorine level of the water at levels considered safe for drinking.
10.1.4 Flush Boiler to Remove Sediment
The installer must ush the boiler system to remove
any sediment to allow proper operation of the PRESTIGE Solo .
Flush the system until the water runs clean and is free
of sediment.
For zoned systems, each zone should be ushed
through a purge valve. Purge valves and isolation
valves should be installed on each zone to allow proper
ushing of the system.
10.1.5 Cleaning of Old Boiler/System:
NOTICE
System fluid including additives, must be practically non-toxic, having a toxicity rating or
Class of 1, as listed in Clinical Toxicology of
Commercial Products.
10.1.1 Boiler Fluid pH Level 6.0 to 8.0
Maintain the boiler uid pH between 6.0 and 8.0. Check
using litmus paper or contact a water treatment company for a chemical analysis.
If the pH does not meet this requirement, do not operate the PRESTIGE Solo or leave the unit lled until the
condition is corrected.
10.1.2 Boiler Fluid Hardness Less Than 7 Grains
• Drain the existing system.
• Fill system with fresh water and cleaner, place existing boiler in operation and run all zones.
• Follow manufacturer’s instructions for proper cleaner concentration and proper cleaning time.
• Thoroughly drain and ush system with fresh water
after cleaning.
• Install new boiler and ll system with fresh water
and proper amount of inhibitor.
• Verify pH and inhibitor level per inhibitor manufacturer’s specs; add inhibitor if necessary.
10.1.6 Cleaning of New Boiler/System:
• Install new boiler and ush system with clean water
to remove any debris.
• Fill system with fresh water and proper amount of
inhibitor.
• Verify pH and inhibitor level per inhibitor manufacturer’s specs; add inhibitor if necessary.
For areas with unusually hard water (hardness above 7
grains) consult a water treatment company.
5555
Chapter 10
CHAPTER 10 - START-UP PREPARATION
10.1.7 Check and Test Antifreeze
For boiler systems containing antifreeze solutions, follow the antifreeze manufacturer’s instructions in verifying the inhibitor level and to ensure the uid characteristics are within specication requirements.
Due to the degradation of inhibitors over time, antifreeze
uids must be periodically replaced. Refer to the manufacturer of the antifreeze for additional instructions.
10.1.8 Use of Antifreeze in the Boiler System
WARNING
NEVER use automotive or ethylene glycol antifreeze or undiluted antifreeze in the system
as freeze protection. This can result in substantial property damage, serious injury, or
death.
Determine the antifreeze uid quantity using the system water volume and following the antifreeze manufacturer instructions.
10.2. Filling the Boiler System
1. Close the boiler drain valve located on the bottom
of the unit and any manual or automatic air vents
in the system.
2. Open all system isolation valves.
3. Fill the boiler system to correct system pressure.
Correct pressure will vary with each application.
NOTICE
Typical residential system fill pressure is 12 psi.
System pressure will increase as system temperature increases. Operating pressure of the
system should never exceed 25 psi.
4. Purge air and sediment in each zone of the boiler
system through the purge valve. Open air vents to
allow air to be purged from the zones.
5. Once the system is completely lled and purged of
all air and sediment, check the system pressure and
check/repair any leaks.
The water volume of the PRESTIGE Solo is approximately 3 gallons [12 L] for PRESTIGE Solo 80/110 or 5 gallons
[19 L] for PRESTIGE Solo 155/175/250 or 7 gallons [26 L]
for PRESTIGE Solo 299/399. Remember to include the
volume of the expansion tank.
Check with local code requirements for the installation
of backow preventers or actual disconnection of the
boiler’s cold water ll or make up water supply line.
NOTICE
Massachusetts Code requires the installation of
a backflow preventer if antifreeze is used.
Ensure the concentration of antifreeze to water does
not exceed a 50/50 ratio.
NOTICE
System fluid including additives, must be practically non-toxic, having a toxicity rating or
Class of 1, as listed in Clinical Toxicology of
Commercial Products.
WARNING
Unrepaired system leaks will cause continual makeup water to be added to the boiler.
Continual makeup water will cause mineral
buildup within the heat exchanger, reducing
the heat transfer, causing heat buildup and
eventual heat exchanger failure. This can result in substantial property damage, serious
injury, or death.
10.3. Check Low Water Cut-Off Device
• The PRESTIGE Solo is provided with a factory in-
stalled LWCO device that monitors system pressure.
• Access the Boiler Information Menu by following
instructions in Section 9.12 on page 50. Scroll
down to see the current system pressure and verify
it is within the range given in Section 10.2 above.
5656
CHAPTER 10 - START-UP PREPARATION
10.4. Check For Gas Leaks
WARNING
• Prior to start-up and during initial operation, check for a gas leak using a combustable gas detector. Do not proceed
with the start-up if there is any indication
of a gas leak. Any leaks found must be re-
paired immediately.
• Propane installations only - The propane
supplier mixes an odorant with the propane to make its presence detectable. In
some cases the odorant can fade and the
gas may no longer have an odor.
• Prior to start-up of the unit and periodically after start-up have the propane sup-
plier check and verify the odorant level.
• Failure to comply with these instructions
can result in substantial property dam-
age, serious injury, or death.
10.6. Inspect Condensate Drain Assembly
1. Inspect and ensure the Condensate Drain Assembly
is properly installed as described in Section 5.2 on
page 25.
2. Remove the plug from the Condensate Drain Assembly and ll with fresh water.
WARNING
The condensate drain assembly must be
filled with water when the PRESTIGE Solo is
in operation. The condensate drain assembly
prevents flue gas emissions from entering
the condensate line. Failure to ensure trap is
filled with water can result in serious injury,
or death.
3. Re-Install plug in condensate drain assembly.
Chapter 10
10.5. Check Thermostat Circuit
• Disconnect the external thermostat wires from the
low voltage terminal strip.
• Connect a voltmeter across the wire ends of the external thermostat wiring.
• Close each thermostat, zone valve and relay in the
external circuit one zone at a time and check the
voltage reading across the wire ends.
• There should NEVER be voltage measured at the
wire ends.
• If voltage is measured under any condition, check
and correct the external wiring.
NOTICE
In systems using 3-wire zone valves, voltage
backfeed to the unit is a common problem. Use
an isolation relay to prevent voltage from the
external circuit from entering the PRESTIGE Solo.
• Reconnect the external thermostat wires to the low
voltage terminal strip.

CHAPTER 12 - OUTDOOR RESET CONTROL
The use of the outdoor reset function is required to
optimize boiler eciency, see notice below. If the
outdoor sensor is not installed before turning on the
PRESTIGE Solo, an Outdoor Sensor Open error (E96) will
be displayed. The error will not prevent the boiler from
operating. The error will automatically reset once the
outdoor sensor is installed or if the outdoor reset function is disabled. Reference Section 9.7 on page 46
for information on disabling the outdoor reset function.
The outdoor reset function can only be disabled if the
installation meets one of the exceptions listed in the
IMPORTANT notice below.
12.1. Mounting the Outdoor Sensor
1. The exterior wall selected for mounting the outdoor sensor should represent the heat load of the
building. Typically a northern wall will suit most
buildings.
2. Ensure the outdoor sensor is shielded from direct
sunlight or the eects of heat or cold from other
sources (exhaust fans, appliance vents...) to prevent
false temperature readings.
3. Mount the outdoor sensor at an elevation on the
exterior wall to prevent accidental damage or tampering.
4. Avoid mounting the outdoor sensor in areas subjected to excessive moisture.
5. Once an area on the exterior wall has been determined, follow the mounting instructions included
with the outdoor sensor.
12.2. Wiring the Sensor
1. Connect 18 AWG 2-wire cable or similar to the outdoor sensor.
2. Route the cable back to the PRESTIGE Solo boiler,
ensuring the wires are not run parallel to telephone
or power wiring.
NOTICE
If the sensor wires are located in an area
with sources of electromagnetic interference
(EMI), the sensor wires should be shielded or
the wires should be run in a grounded metal
conduit. If using shielded cable, the shielding
should be connected to the common ground of
the unit.
3. Connect the outdoor sensor wires to low voltage terminals X6-1&2 located at the bottom of the CTRLMax
control module as shown in Fig. 22 on page 36.
CHAPTER 12

CHAPTER 13 - EXTERNAL MODULATING CONTROL
The PRESTIGE Solo can directly accept an analog
0-10 VDC signal from an external modulating boiler
controller to control the ring rate.
13.1. Wiring the Modulating Controller
Run two 18 gauge wires from the external modulating
boiler controller’s 0-10 VDC boiler output to low voltage
terminals X5-1&2 located at the bottom of the CTRLMax
control module, as shown in Fig. 22 on page 36.. This
signal will both enable and modulate the boiler. No wiring is required at the thermostat terminals.
External modulating control will only function if the
external modulating controller is properly wired to the
PRESTIGE Solo as follows:
• X5-1 = +
• X5-2 = -
NOTICE
13.2. CTRLMax Programming
The CTRLMax control module must be programmed to
accept the 0-10 VDC signal from the external modulating boiler control.
1. Use the Heating EZ Setup function to set CH Demand to 0-10V Modulation Signal. Reference Sec-
tion 9.7 on page 46.
13.3. Programming of External Modulating
Control
The external modulating control must be programmed
to send 2 VDC to enable the boiler and run it at low re,
and 10 VDC to run the boiler at high re. Once the control enables the boiler, it must wait 30 seconds to allow
the burner to stabilize before modulating the boiler.
CHAPTER 13
Ensure that the polarity of the connections
from the external modulating boiler controller
to the boiler are correct. Reversed polarity will
lead to no response from the boiler.

17.7. Check Ventilation Air Openings
• Verify that all ventilation openings to the mechanical room or building are open and unobstructed.
Check the operation and wiring of any automatic
ventilation dampers.
• Check and verify the vent termination and the combustion air intake are free of debris and obstructions.
17.8. Inspect Vent and Combustion Air Piping
• Visually inspect the venting system and combustion air piping for blockage, deterioration of gaskets or leakage. Repair any deciencies.
• Verify that the combustion air inlet and vent piping
is connected, sealed and properly supported.
DANGER
Failure to inspect the vent system and combustion air inlet piping and to have any conditions
repaired, will result in serious injury, or death.
17.9. Check Boiler System
gravity circulation of air-saturated tank water back
into the system. This device prevents air from bubbling up through the water as it returns from the
system.
• Ensure no automatic air vents are used in the system. This will allow air to escape from the system
instead of returning to the tank.
Diaphragm Tank:
• Ensure the system contains a minimum of one automatic air vent. Recommended location of the air
vent should be atop an air eliminator.
• Remove the tank from the system and check the
charge pressure. For residential applications, the
charge pressure is typically 12 psig. If tank does not
hold pressure, then the membrane is damaged and
the tank should be replaced.
17.11. Check Boiler Relief Valve
Inspect the relief valve and lift the lever to verify ow at
least annually or as recommended on the warning tag
of the valve.
WARNING
• Verify all system components are correctly installed
and operating properly.
• Check the cold ll pressure for the system. Typical
cold water ll pressure is 12 psig.
• Verify the system pressure, as the unit operates at
high temperature, does not exceed 25 psig. Excessive pressure indicates expansion tank sizing is incorrect or system performance problems.
• Inspect air vent and air separators in the system.
Ensure vents do not leak, replace any leaking vents.
CHAPTER 17
• Verify boiler uid pH level is between 6.0 and 8.0.
• Check and verify inhibitor /antifreeze concentration
within the boiler water meets inhibitor/antifreeze
manufacturer’s specications.
• If necessary contact a boiler water treatment company for a chemical analysis.
17.10. Check Expansion Tank
Refer to Chapter 4 on page 13 for recommended location of the expansion tank and air eliminators.
Closed -Type Tank:
• Ensure tank is partially lled with water leaving an
air gap as a cushion. Refer to the manufacturer’s
instruction for proper ll level.
• Ensure the tank is tted with a device that reduces
Before manually operating the pressure relief
valve, ensure the discharge piping is directed to a suitable place of disposal to avoid a
potential scald hazard. The discharge piping
must be full size without restriction and installed to permit complete drainage of both
the valve and line. Failure to comply with this
instruction can result in substantial property
damage, serious injury, or death.
If after closing the valve, the valve fails to seat properly
or continually weeps, replace the relief valve. Ensure
the cause of the relief valve to weep is the valve itself,
not due to system over-pressurization caused by an expansion tank that is waterlogged or undersized.
17.12. Inspection of Ignitor
• Remove the ignitor from the burner mounting plate.
• Remove any white oxides accumulated on the ignitor using ne grit sandpaper or steel wool. If the
ignitor does not clean to a satisfactory condition,
replace the ignitor .
