mm] above the floor level.
•
Locate or protect the unit in a manner so it cannot be damaged by a moving vehicle.
2.6 BOILER FREEZE PROTECTION FEATURE
The boiler control has a freeze protection feature built in. This feature monitors the boiler
temperature and responds as follows when no call for heat is present:
•

•
42ºF [6ºC] CH (1), Auxiliary Boiler & System Pumps ON, Burner operates at low fire

boiler. 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. See “Chapter 5 Boiler Piping”
for primary/secondary piping examples. See Section 11.1.6 for
