Combustion Air Contamination
WARNING
If the PRESTIGE Solo combustion air inlet is located in any area likely to cause or contain contamination, or if products, which would contaminate the air cannot be removed, the combustion air must be repiped and terminated to another loca­tion. Contaminated combustion air will damage the unit and its burner system, resulting in possible severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
WARNING
Do not operate a PRESTIGE Solo if its combustion air inlet is located near a laundry room or pool facility. These areas will always contain hazardous con­taminants.
Potential contaminating products
- Spray cans containing chloro/fluorocar­bons
- Permanent Wave Solutions
- Chlorinated wax
- Chlorine - based swimming pool chem­icals / cleaners
- Calcium Chloride used for thawing ice
- Sodium Chloride used for water soft­ening
- Refrigerant leaks
- Paint or varnish removers
- Hydrochloric acid / muriatic acid
- Cements and glues
- Antistatic fabric softeners used in clothes dryers
- Chlorine-type bleaches, detergents, and cleaning solvents found in household laundry rooms
- Adhesives used to fasten building prod­ucts and other similar products
Pool and laundry products and common household and hobby products often contain fluorine or chlorine compounds. When these chemicals pass through the burner and vent system, they can form strong acids. These acids can create cor­rosion of the heat exchanger, burner components and vent system, causing serious damage and presenting a possi­ble threat of flue gas spillage or water leakage into the surrounding area.
Please read the information listed below. If contaminating chemicals are located near the area of the combustion air inlet, the installer should pipe the combustion air inlet to an outside area free of these chemicals per SECTION V of this installation manual.
Areas likely to contain these products
- Dry cleaning / laundry areas and estab­lishments
- Beauty salons
- Metal fabrication shops
- Swimming pools and health spas
- Refrigeration Repair shops
- Photo processing plants
- Auto body shops

Combustion Air Venting
Ventilation and Combustion Air Requirements - Direct Vent
A Direct Vent appliance utilizes uncontamined 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 on page 4, no ventilation openings are required.
For Direct Vent, zero clearance installations involving only the PRESTIGE Solo, 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 floor of the space.
For installations in which the PRESTIGE Solo shares the space with air movers (exhaust fan, clothes dryers, fireplaces, 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 CSA B149.1 and B149.2 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 could result in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
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 (listed on page 5), flammable vapors and tight housing construction (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, fireplaces, 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 CSA B149.1 and B149.2 for installations in Canada, as referenced in this section of the manual and titled Methods of Accessing Combustion Air into a Space.
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 could result in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.

DANGER
Do not install the PRESTIGE Solo into a common vent with other gas or oil appli­ances. This may cause flue gas spillage or appliance malfunction, resulting in possi­ble severe personal injury, death or sub­stantial property damage.
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 certified per ANSI Z21.13 as a Category IV or Direct Vent (sealed combustion) appliance. A Category IV appli­ance utilizes uncontamined indoor or outdoor air (surrounding the appliance) for combustion. A Direct Vent appliance utilizes uncontaminat­ed outdoor air (piped directly to the appliance) for combustion.
BEST PRACTICE
In order to reduce the potential risks associated with indoor contaminates (listed on page 5), flammable vapors and tight housing construction (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.
NOTICE
Install combustion air and vent pipe as detailed in the PRESTIGE Solo Vent Supplement included in the boiler installation envelope. Refer to optional vent kit instructions for addition vent installation instructions.
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 severe personal injury of death.

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 deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition.
5. 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.
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, fireplace 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, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or CAN/CGA B149, Installation codes. 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 Part II of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or CAN/CGA B149, Installation codes.
3. 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.
4. Place in operation the appliance being inspected. Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust thermostat so appliance will operate continuously.
DANGER
Do not install the PRESTIGE Solo into a common vent with other gas or oil appli­ances. This may cause flue gas spillage or appliance malfunction, resulting in possi­ble severe personal injury, death or sub­stantial property damage.

Boiler Piping
SECTION IV - Boiler Piping
General Piping Requirements
- All plumbing must meet or exceed all local, state and national plumbing codes.
- Support all piping using hangers. DO NOT support piping by the unit or its components.
- Use isolation valves to isolate system com­ponents.
- Install unions for easy removal of the PRESTIGE Solo from the system piping.
WARNING
Use a two wrench method when tighten­ing piping onto the boiler connections. Use one wrench to prevent the boiler piping from turning / twisting. Failure to support the boiler piping and connec­tions in this manner could cause damage to the boiler and its components.
Pressure Relief Valve
1. The PRESTIGE Solo is supplied with a 30 psi pressure relief valve and must be piped using the PRV connection as shown in Fig. 5 page 15.
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 out-
let 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 should not be reduced, maintain the same size as the outlet of the relief valve.
- Should be directed downward towards
the floor at all times. The piping should terminate at least 6 inches [153 mm] above any drain connection to allow clear visibility of the discharge.
- Should terminate with a plain end, not with a threaded end. The material of the piping should have a serviceable temperature rating of 250ºF or greater.
- Should not be subject to conditions where freezing could occur.
- Should not contain any shut-off valves or obstructions. No shut-off valve should be piped between the boiler and relief valve.
WARNING
Failure to comply with the guidelines on installing the pressure relief valve and discharge piping can result in personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
Low Water Cutoff Device
- The PRESTIGE Solo is equipped with a fac­tory installed pressure switch type Low Water Cut Off device.
- The minimum operating system pressure allowable with this device is 10 psig.
- Check local codes if a Low Water Cutoff Device is required. If so, determine if this device meets the requirements of the local codes.
NOTICE
The PRESTIGE Solo control system also senses the system 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 jurisdic­tions may accept these PRESTIGE Solo integral control functions as a means of providing low water protection.

Additional Limit Control
If a separate LWCO device is required by cer­tain local jurisdictions or when the boiler is installed above the system piping, the follow­ing guidelines must be followed:
- The LWCO device must be designed for water installations, electrode probe­type is recommended.
- The LWCO device must be installed in a tee connection on the boiler supply piping above the boiler.
- Wiring of the LWCO device to the PRES­TIGE Solo is done directly onto the low voltage terminal strip, reference Fig. 19 page 31 for available terminals for an external limit (manual or auto reset).
If the installation is to comply with ASME or Canadian requirements, an additional high temperature limit may be needed. Consult local code requirements to determine compli­ance. The limit should be installed as follows:
Boiler System Piping Applications
BEST PRACTICE
It is recommended on all piping applica­tions 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 the minimum boiler flow rate, see Graphs 2 through 7 on pages 91 through 93. For other piping arrangements, consult the Engineering Department at Triangle Tube or consult other approved/recognized design arrangements.
BEST PRACTICE
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 appliance to prevent gravity circulation.
- Install the limit in the boiler supply pip­ing between the boiler and any isolation valve.
- Maximum set point for the limit is 194ºF.
- For wiring of the limit reference Fig. 19, page 31, using the external limit/manual reset terminals on the low voltage termi­nal strip. This will provide a "hard" lockout requiring a manual reset of the control.
Backflow Preventer
- Use a backflow preventer valve in the make-up water supply to the unit as required by local codes.
Expansion Tank and Makeup Water
Ensure the expansion tank is properly sized for the boiler volume (3 gallons [12 L] for the PRESTIGE Solo 60, 5 gallons [19 L] for the PRESTIGE Solo 175/250, 7 gallons [26 L] for PRESTIGE Solo 399) and the system volume and 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 and Fig. 8 on page 19 when using a primary/secondary piping arrangement or as per recognized design methods. Refer to the expansion tank manufacturer instructions for additional installation details.
16
Page 23
Boiler Piping
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 fill con­nection at the same location as the expansion tank connection to the system.
Diaphragm Expansion Tank
Always install an automatic air vent on the top of the air separator to remove residual air from the system.
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 for the expansion tank to allow air within the system to rise.
CAUTION
DO NOT install automatic air vents on a closed-type 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.
Circulator
Domestic Hot Water System Piping
See Fig. 9 through 12, page 21-22 for recom­mended piping to a DHW system. This recom­mended piping configuration ensures priority is given to the production and recovery of the DHW.
The piping for the DHW is separate from the boiler system piping and does not require a pri­mary / secondary piping configuration.
To wire the DHW circulator to the boiler control module, reference Section VIII - External Wiring.
System Piping - Zone Circulators
Connect the PRESTIGE Solo to the system piping as shown in Fig. 9 page 21 when zoning with zone circulators.
The installer must provide a separate circulator for each zone of space heating as well as the boiler circulator.
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 60, 1-1/4 inch for the PRESTIGE Solo 175/250 and 1-1/2 inch for the PRESTIGE Solo 399.
The PRESTIGE Solo requires an external circula­tor to provide circulation through the boiler. The circulator when wired directly to the PRESTIGE Solo will allow for domestic hot water priority and to provide circulation for the freeze protection fea­ture of the boiler control. See Graphs 2 through 7 on pages 91 & 93 for pressure drop and minimum flow rate through the boiler.
Sizing Primary Piping
See Fig. 9 through 13, pages 21 - 23, for rec­ommended piping arrangements based on vari­ous applications. Size the piping and system components required in the space heating sys­tem, using recognized design methods.
System Piping - Zone Valves
Connect the PRESTIGE Solo to the system pip­ing as shown in Fig. 10 page 21 when zoning with zone valves. The primary / secondary piping ensures that the boiler loop has sufficient flow.
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 60, 1-1/4 inch for the PRESTIGE Solo 175/250 and 1-1/2 inch for the PRESTIGE Solo 399.

In new or retrofit applications in which primary/secondary arrangement is not utilized, the PRESTIGE Solo allows this flexibility due to a lower boiler pressure drop, see Graphs 2 through 7 on pages 91 through 93.
Figure 11, page 22 illustrates a multiple zone valve system with a single system/boiler circu­lator. A by-pass loop with a pressure differential valve must be installed on the system piping.
Figure 12, page 22 illustrates a single zone utiliz­ing the boiler circulator as the system circulator.
System Piping - Radiant Heating
The heat exchanger design of the PRESTIGE allows operation in a condensing mode. This feature requires no regulation of the return temperature back to the boiler in radiant heat­ing applications.
The design and construction of the PRESTIGE heat exchanger allows the installation of the boil­er on systems with non - oxygen barrier tubing.
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 60, 1-1/4 inch for the PRESTIGE Solo 175/250 and 1-1/2 inch for the PRESTIGE Solo 399.
NOTICE
The addition of the high temperature limit is important if the PRESTIGE is connect­ed to a domestic hot water system, which requires a high primary supply water temperature.
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 flow/check valves to prevent the chilled medi­um from entering into the boiler.
CAUTION
DO NOT install a SMART tank along with the PRESTIGE in systems with non-oxygen barrier tubing. Failure to comply could result in premature failure of the SMART tank.
The boiler water supply temperature can be maintained by the PRESTIGE, eliminating the need for a mix system to achieve the desired temperature.
It is recommended for the installer to install a high temperature limit to ensure that the pri­mary supply temperature does not exceed the maximum allowable temperature for the radi­ant tubing.
Size the system piping and circulator to pro­vide the flow needed for the radiant system.
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 flow/check valves or other automatic means to prevent gravity circulation of the boiler water during cooling cycles.
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 page 23.
Maintain a minimum of 6 inches [153 mm] of clearance between units to allow for servicing.
For the space heating piping refer to the appli­cations mentioned in this manual or use recog­nized design methods.

3. Remove the compression nut and rubber seal from the drain outlet.
4. Using 3/4” x 2’ flexible PVC tube provid­ed, slide the compression nut and rubber seal over the pipe
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.
5. Thread the rubber seal into the compres­sion nut to ease installation of the pipe to the drain assembly.
Installing Condensate Drain Assembly
1. Locate the condensate drain assembly and install as shown in Fig. 14 page 25.
NOTICE
The installer may want to fill the con­densate trap with water prior to assem­bling on the unit.
2. Remove the retaining nut, metal washer and rubber seals from the condensate drain assembly and slide over the heat exchanger condensate drain nipple. Make sure to place the metal washer on top of the rubber seals. Connect the condensate drain assem­bly to the retaining nut and tighten. Hand
tight only!
6. Seat the pipe onto the drain assembly and
tighten the compression nut. Hand tight
only!
NOTICE
The installer may opt to using 13/16" ID tubing in lieu of rigid piping.
NOTICE
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 CSA or ULC certified PVC or CPVC pipe, fittings and cement/primer.
7. Continue the pipe from the drain assembly to a floor drain or condensate pump.

3. Connect the DHW circulator to the line voltage terminal strip on the wiring panel below the PRESTIGE control module, as shown in Fig. 19 on page 31. The DHW circulator is enabled during a DHW call. This circulator is used to supply heat to an indirect hot water heater.
4. Connect the Auxiliary Boiler circulator to the line voltage terminal strip on the wiring panel below the PRESTIGE control mod­ule, as shown in Fig. 19 on page 31. The auxiliary boiler circulator is enabled during a CH or a DHW call. This circulator is typ­ically used in retrofit applications where the CH and DHW systems are connected to a common boiler supply.
5. Connect the System circulator to the line voltage terminal strip on the wiring panel below the PRESTIGE control module, as shown in Fig. 19 on page 31. The system circulator is enabled during a CH1 or CH2 call with the factory default TriMax set­tings. This circulator is typically used to circulate water in the secondary CH loop when zoning with zone valves.
Low Voltage Connections
NOTICE
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 cabinet and should remain sepa­rated inside the PRESTIGE.
NOTICE
CH and DHW call connections to the PRESTIGE 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. If external voltage is present, the use of an isolation relay is required to prevent dam­age to the TriMax controller.
Thermostat Wiring
Alarm Wiring
The alarm contact closes whenever the Prestige is in a soft or hard lockout. This dry contact can be connected to an external monitoring system or other indicator to alert the operator that the Prestige is locked out.
1. Connect the external monitoring device to the line voltage terminal strip on the wiring panel below the PRESTIGE control mod­ule, as shown in Fig. 19 on page 31.
NOTICE
The alarm contact is fused with a 2.5A fuse located in the terminal strip. An iso­lation relay is required if the external monitoring device draws more than 2.5A.
The TriMax 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 efficiency of the system.
WARNING
Simultaneous CH1 and CH2 calls will result in the PRESTIGE operating at the highest target temperature. The use of a mixing device on the lower temperature zones such as the Triangle Tube Optima Series SMV Control may be required to protect the lower temperature zones from damage.
1. Connect the room thermostat or dry contact end switch to the low voltage terminal strip on the wiring panel below the PRESTIGE control module, as shown in Fig. 19 on page 31.
33
Page 40
External Wiring
2. Follow thermostat manufacturer’s instruc­tions for proper installation. Thermostat should be located on an inside wall away from any heat or cold influences such as drafts, lights, fireplaces, etc.
3. Set the thermostat anticipator (If applica­ble) as follows:
- Set for 0.2 amps when wired directly to
the PRESTIGE.
- 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 specifications and the thermostat instructions for additional information on anticipator setting.
NOTICE
The use of power stealing thermostats which draw their power from the PRES­TIGE can lead to erratic or unpre­dictable operation. Honeywell T87 series thermostats are excluded from this notice since they are designed to operate with the TriMax control.
Additional Boiler Limits
Additional boiler limits (High Limit, LWCO, etc.) can be wired into either the Manual Reset Limit or Auto Reset Limit terminals of the PRESTIGE. These limit connections will pro­vide a “hard” lockout requiring a manual reset of the PRESTIGE or a “soft” lockout in which the PRESTIGE will automatically reset when the limit resets.
NOTICE
Manual Reset Limit and Auto Reset Limit connections to the PRESTIGE 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. If exter­nal voltage is present, the use of an isola­tion relay is required to prevent damage to the TriMax controller.
1. Remove the factory installed jumper wire on the Manual Reset or Auto Reset termi­nals that will accept the additional boiler limit.
Outdoor Sensor Wiring
The Outdoor Reset function and Warm Weather Shutdown (WWSD) features require the connection of the included outdoor temper­ature sensor. See page 63 for outdoor sensor installation and setup.
Domestic Hot Water Wiring
The Domestic Hot Water terminals can accept either a call from an aquastat (switch) or tem­perature sensor. Use of the included indirect water heater sensor is recommended.
1. Connect the DHW aquastat or temperature sensor to the low voltage terminal strip on the wiring panel below the PRESTIGE con­trol module, as shown in Fig. 19 on page 31.
2. Connect the additional boiler limit to the low voltage terminal strip on the wiring panel below the PRESTIGE control mod­ule, as shown in Fig. 19 on page 31.
External Modulation Control
The PRESTIGE firing rate can be controlled by an external modulating boiler controller. See page 64 for external modulation signal wiring and setup.
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 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.

TriMax Operation
SECTION IX- TriMax Operation
The TriMax Boiler Management System is designed to be flexible yet easy to use. TriMax mon­itors and controls the Prestige to provide heat as efficiently as possible. TriMax includes many advanced features which previously were not available in the Prestige.
• Two central/space heating (CH) call inputs with separate outdoor reset curves.
• Domestic Hot Water (DHW) call input with optional priority.
• EZ Setup feature allows the installer to quickly customize TriMax for each installation.
• Cascade function allows up to six Prestige boilers to operate together in a single heating system.
• Modbus interface for integrating with building management systems.
All TriMax features are easy to use through a graphical display where information is presented either graphically or in plain English, so code charts are not required. Figure 30 shows a TriMax display example of the Prestige fired for a domestic hot water demand.

Start-Up Preparation
SECTION X - Start-Up Preparation
NOTICE
Requirements below must be met for warranty coverage of Prestige heat exchangers. A thorough cleaning of any existing system, using approved heating system cleaning agents is required prior to installation of the Prestige boiler. System should be treated with an approved inhibitor after filling for long term protection.
Check Boiler System Water Chemistry
WARNING
Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds in the boiler system. Damage to seals and gaskets in the sys­tem components could occur, resulting in substantial property damage.
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.
Flush Boiler to Remove Sediment
The installer must flush the boiler system to remove any sediment to allow proper operation of the PRESTIGE Solo .
Flush the systems until the water runs clean and is free of sediment.
For zoned systems, each zone should be flushed through a purge valve. Purge valves and isolation valves should be installed on each zone to allow proper flushing of the system.
Cleaning of Old Boiler/System:
• Drain the existing system.
NOTICE
System water including additives must be practically non-toxic, having a toxicity rating or Class of 1, as listed in Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Products.
Water pH Level 6.0 to 8.0
Maintain the boiler water 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 filled until the condition is corrected.
Water Hardness Less Than 7 Grains
For areas with unusually hard water (hardness above 7 grains) consult a water treatment company.
• 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 flush system with fresh water after cleaning.
• Install new boiler, fill system with fresh water and proper amount of inhibitor.
• Verify pH and inhibitor level per inhibitor manufacturer’s specs; add inhibitor if necessary.
Cleaning of New Boiler/System:
• Install new boiler and flush system with cleaner 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.
56
Page 63
Start-Up Preparation
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 fluid characteristics are within specification requirements.
Due to the degradation of inhibitors over time, antifreeze fluids must be periodically replaced. Refer to the manufacturer of the antifreeze for additional instructions.
Use of Antifreeze in the Boiler System
WARNING
NEVER use automotive or ethylene glycol antifreeze or undiluted antifreeze in the primary system as freeze protection. This can cause severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage if ignored.
Determine the antifreeze fluid quantity using the system water content volume and following the antifreeze manufacturer instructions.
The water volume of the PRESTIGE Solo is approximately 3 gallons [12 L] for PRESTIGE Solo 60 or 5 gallons [19 L] for PRESTIGE Solo 175/250 or 7 gallons [26 L] for PRESTIGE Solo 399 . Remember to include the volume of the expansion tank.
NOTICE
System water, including additives, must be practically non-toxic, having a toxicity rating or Class of 1, as listed in Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Products.
Filling the Boiler System
1. Close the boiler drain valve located on the bottom of the unit and any manual or auto­matic air vent 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 when 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 in the zones.
5. Once the system is completely filled and purged of all air and sediment, check the system pressure and check/repair any leaks.
Check with local codes requirements for the installation of backflow preventers or actual disconnection from the boiler’s cold water fill 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.
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 possible heat buildup and even­tual heat exchanger failure.
Check Low Water Cut-Off Device
- The PRESTIGE Solo is provided with a factory installed LWCO device that mea­sures system pressure of more than 10 psi.
57
Page 64
Start-Up Preparation
- Remove the front jacket panel and check for continuity across the low water cut-off device wire terminals. The contacts should be closed when system pressure is greater than 10 psi. See item 6, on Fig. 36 page 78(PRESTIGE Solo 60) or on Fig. 37 page 79 (PRESTIGE Solo 175/250) or Fig. 38 page 80 (PRESTIGE Solo 399) for location of the LWCO.
Check For Gas Leaks
WARNING
Prior to start-up and during initial opera­tion, smell near the floor and around the unit for gas odorant or any unusual odor. Do not proceed with the start-up if there is any indication of a gas leak. Any leaks found must be repaired immediately.
WARNING
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 sup­plier check and verify the odorant level.
Check Thermostat Circuit
- Disconnect the external thermostat wires from the low voltage terminal strip.
NOTICE
In systems using 3-wire zone valves, back­feed of voltage to the unit is a common problem. Use an isolation relay to prevent voltage from the external circuit entering the PRESTIGE Solo control panel.
- Reconnect the external thermostat wires to the low voltage terminal strip.
Inspection of Condensate Drain Assembly
1. Inspect and ensure the Condensate Drain Assembly is properly installed as described on page 24 and shown in Fig. 14 on page 25.
2. Remove the plug from the Condensate Drain Assembly and fill with fresh water.
NOTICE
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 could result in severe personal injury or death.
3. Re-Install plug in condensate drain assem­bly.
- 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 at the panel under any condition, check and correct the external wiring.

SECTION XII - Outdoor Reset Control
The boiler setpoint for a space heating call can be fixed or vary with the outdoor temperature. The use of the outdoor reset function is recom­mended to optimize boiler efficiency. The default setting of the boiler is for outdoor reset operation. The outdoor reset function must be disabled in Heating EZ Setup after the outdoor sensor is disconnected from the boiler. (See NOTICE on page 64).
4. Mount the sensor enclosure at an elevation on the exterior wall to prevent accidental damage or tampering.
5. Avoid mounting the enclosure in areas sub­jected to excessive moisture.
6. Once an area on the exterior wall has been determined, to affix the enclosure use the enclosure as a template to mark the location of the mounting screws.
7. Using a 3/16” drill bit, drill 2 pilot holes on the marked locations.
8. Tap the enclosed plastic anchors into the pilot holes. Use care not to damage the anchors.
9. Mount the sensor enclosure using the screws provided.
Wiring the Sensor
1. Cut a small slit in the seal gasket and route 18 AWG 2-wire cable or similar wire cable through the seal gasket into the enclosure.
Fig. 32: Sensor Enclosure and Components
Mounting the Outdoor Sensor
1. Remove the front cover and mounting screws / anchors from the sensor enclosure.
2. When mounting the enclosure, the exterior wall selected should represent the heat load of the building. Typically a northern or northeastern wall will suit most buildings. A southern facing wall for those buildings, which may have large glass walls or win­dows on the southern face.
3. Ensure the sensor enclosure is shielded from direct sunlight or the effects of heat or cold from other sources (exhaust fans, appliance vents...) to prevent false temper­ature sensing.
2. Route the sensor wire back to the PRES­TIGE Solo boiler, ensuring the wires are not run parallel to telephone or power cables.
NOTICE
If the sensor wires are located in an area with sources of potential electromagnetic interference (EMI) the sensor wires should be shielded or the wires should be routed in a grounded metal conduit. If using shielded cable, the shielding should be connected to the common ground of the unit.
5. Connect the sensor wires to the outdoor sen­sor terminals on the low voltage terminal strip located inside the boiler enclosure (see boiler wiring diagram, Fig. 19 page 31).

Page 70
External Modulating Control
SECTION XIII - External Modulating
The boiler can directly accept an analog 0-10 VDC signal to control the firing rate from an external modulating boiler controller such as the Optima SCC4.
Wiring the Modulating Controller
Run two 18 gauge wires from the external modulating boiler controller’s 0-10 VDC boil­er output to the modulation signal terminals on the low voltage terminal strip inside the boiler. (see boiler wiring diagram, Fig. 19 page 31). This signal will both enable and modulate the boiler. No wiring is required at the thermostat terminals.
NOTICE
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.
TriMax Adjustment
The TriMax control 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 the CH Demand to 0-10V Modulation Signal. Reference page 46 for the Heating EZ Setup function.
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 fire, and 10 VDC to run the boiler at high fire. Once the control enables the boiler, it must wait 30 seconds to allow the burn­er to stabilize before modulating the boiler.
IMPORTANT

Page 76
Maintenance Procedures
Clean Condensate Drain Assembly
1. Loosen the retaining nut from the conden­sate drain assembly and disconnect the assembly from the boiler.
2. Empty any water from the trap and drain assembly. Flush with fresh water as neces­sary to clean.
3. Check the drain piping from the condensate drain assembly to the drain. Flush to clean as necessary.
4. Reassemble the condensate drain assembly onto the boiler by tightening the retaining nut with rubber seal onto the boiler. Hand tight only.
5. Remove the fill plug on the condensate drain assembly and fill with water. See Fig. 14 on page 25.
6. Replace the fill plug on drain assembly.
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.
WARNING
Failure to inspect the vent system and combustion air inlet piping and to have any conditions repaired, can result in severe personal injury or death.
Check Boiler System
Verify all system components are correctly installed and operating properly.
Check the cold fill pressure for the system, typ­ical cold water fill pressure is 12 psig.
Verify the system pressure, as the unit operates at high temperature, to ensure the pressure does not exceed 25 psig. Excessive pressure reading indi­cates expansion tank sizing is incorrect or system performance problems.
Inspect air vent and air separators in the sys­tem. Remove the caps on automatic air vents and briefly depress the valve stem to flush vent. Replace the cap when completed. Ensure vents do not leak, replace any leaking vents.
Verify boiler water pH level is between 6.0 and
8.0.

Page 77
Maintenance Procedures
Check Expansion Tank
Refer to Section IV - Boiler Piping for rec­ommended location of the expansion tank and air eliminators.
Closed -Type Tank:
- Ensure tank is partially filled with
water leaving an air gap as a cushion. Refer to the manufacturer’s instruction for proper fill level.
- Ensure the tank is fitted with a device
that reduces gravity circulation of air­saturated 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 a charge pressure, then the membrane is damaged and the tank should be replaced.
WARNING
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.
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.
Inspection of Ignition Electrode
Remove the ignition electrode from the burner mounting plate.
Remove any white oxides accumulated on the electrode using fine grit sandpaper or steel wool. If the electrode does not clean to a satisfactory condition, replace the ignitor .
When replacing the ignition electrode, ensure the gasket is in good condition and correctly positioned, replace gasket if necessary.
Check Ignition Wiring and Ground Wiring
Inspect the ignition cable from the ignitor to the TriMax control module.
Check Boiler Relief Valve
Inspect the relief valve and lift the lever to ver­ify flow at least annually or as recommended on the warning tag of the valve.
Inspect the ground wire from the ignitor to the boiler jacket ground terminals.
Ensure wiring is in good condition and secure­ly connected.
Check ground continuity of the wiring to the boiler jacket or piping using a continuity meter.
Replace and correct ground wire if ground con­tinuity is not completed and satisfactory.

1. Manually place the boiler into high fire. See page 60 for procedure.
2. Navigate to the Boiler Information Menu to observe the flue gas temperature. See page 50 for procedure.
3. If the flue gas temperature is more than 54°F [30°C] above the supply water temperature, shut the boiler down and follow the heat exchanger cleaning procedure below.
Clean Heat Exchanger
1. Shut down the boiler:
- Follow the instructions on Page 62 "To Turn Off Gas to Appliance"
- Do not drain the boiler unless the boil­er will be subject to freezing condi­tions.
- Do not drain the boiler if freeze protec­tion fluid is used in the system.
2. Allow the boiler to cool down to room tem­perature before servicing.
3. Disconnect the gas piping and gas valve wire harness connector.
4. Disconnect the wiring harness connectors from the blower and remove the blower retaining screws or nuts. Remove the blow­er from the unit.
5. Remove the mounting nuts securing the burner mounting plate to the heat exchang­er and set aside.
6. Carefully remove the burner mounting plate assembly from the heat exchanger. Ensure combustion chamber insulation is not damaged during removal of burner mounting plate assembly. See WARNING on page 74.
7. Carefully remove the combustion chamber insulation from the heat exchanger and set aside. See WARNING on page 74.
8. Use a vacuum cleaner, compressed air or water to remove any accumulation from the heat exchanger flue ways. Do not use any solvent.
9. Re-install the combustion chamber insula­tion onto the heat exchanger.
10. Re-assemble the burner mounting plate assembly onto the heat exchanger. Ensure the burner plate gasket and combustion chamber insulation is in place and not dam­aged, replace gasket and insulation if nec­essary. See WARNING on page 74.
11. Re-assemble the blower onto the burner mounting plate and reconnect the wiring harness connectors.
12. Reconnect the gas piping and wire harness to gas valve. Check for leaks, repair if nec­essary.
13. Close isolation valves on the boiler water piping to isolate the boiler from the heating system.
14. Attach a hose to the boiler drain valve and flush the boiler thoroughly with fresh water by using the purge valves to allow water to enter through the make-up water line to the boiler.

Maintenance Procedures
15. Once the boiler has been completely flushed, return the boiler and system piping back to operation.
16. Perform the required startup and checkout procedures as outlined on pages 56 to 66.
Handling Previously Fired Combustion Chamber Insulation
WARNING
The combustion chamber insulation contains ceramic fibers, which are clas­sified as a possible human carcinogen. When exposed to extremely high tem­peratures, the ceramic fibers, which contain crystalline silica, can be con­verted into cristobalite.
Avoid Breathing and Contact with Skin and Eyes
Review With Owner
Ensure the owner understands the impor­tance to perform the maintenance schedule specified in this manual.
Remind the owner of the importance to call a licensed contractor should the unit or sys­tem exhibit any unusual behavior.
2. Wear long sleeved, loose fitting clothing, gloves and eyes protection.
3. Assure adequate ventilation.
4. Wash with soap and water after contact.
5. Wash potentially contaminated clothes separately from other laundry and rinse washing machine thoroughly.
6. Discard used insulation in an air tight plastic bag.
When removing or repairing the combustion chamber insulation follow these precaution measures:
1. Use a NIOSH approved respirator which meets OSHA requirements for cristobalite dust, similar to N95. Contact NIOSH at 1-800-356-4676 or on the web at www.cdc.gov/niosh for latest recommen­dations.
NIOSH Stated First Aid:
Eye/Skin: Immediately irrigate Breathing: Clean fresh air
