10.6.1 

RE-INSTALLING THE IGNITER 

 

Confirm that the end of the replacement igniter has a 
bead of silicone sealing the gap between the metal 
mounting flange and the ceramic shaft of the igniter. 

 

Carefully insert the igniter into the mounting point on 
the burner flange and push into position on top of the 
fan’s flange. The word ‘OUTSIDE’ on igniter faces you 
when inserting igniter. 

 

Reinstall the two mounting head screws and tighten by 
hand only. 

 

Ensure that the igniter ceramic paper gaskets are 
properly installed and seal the point of contact between 
the igniter and fan mounting flange. 

 

Reconnect the power leads to the igniter.  

 

Turn on main gas supply.  

 

Turn on main power.  

 

Test fire the appliance to ensure proper operation. 

 

The igniter must generate 3A to reliably prove the 
ignition system. 

10.7 

PRIMARY HEAT EXCHANGER 
INSPECTION 

 

The primary heat exchanger should be inspected at the 
time of burner maintenance. 

 

Turn off all power to the appliance. 

 

Turn off main gas to the appliance. 

 

Remove top cover. 

 

Remove fan assembly and burner as detailed in the 
Burner and Cleaning section. 

 

Check the heat exchanger surface for soot. If soot is 
present, heat exchanger must be cleaned and problem 
corrected. 

 

Remove the front outer jacket door. 

 

Remove the front inner jacket door. 

 

Check “V” baffles on the exchanger. 

 

Use detergent water pressure wash to remove soot 
from heat exchanger and surfaces of the inner 
chamber. 

 

When necessary, the heat exchanger can be removed 
by disconnecting all water piping and removing the 
eight flange mounting bolts at the rear of the appliance. 
The heat exchanger can now be removed from the 
front of the appliance. 

 

Reinstall inner jacket door. Replace any damaged 
gaskets to ensure a proper air seal. 

 

Reinstall the burner and fan assembly. 

 

Reassemble all gas and water piping. Test for gas 
leaks.  

 

Reassemble outer jacket panels. Keep top cover off. 

 

Cycle unit and check for proper operation. 

 

Once proper operation is confirmed replace the top 
cover. 

10.8 

CONDENSING HEAT RECOVERY 
MODULE (CHRM) INSPECTION 

 

Inspect the CHRM annually. 

 

Turn off all power to the appliance.  

 

Turn off main gas to appliance.  

 

Remove the top cover, front and right side outer 
panels.  

 

Remove the CHRM access cover.  

 

Pressure wash the heat exchanger. Use a soft bristle 
brush to remove any remaining deposits. If necessary 

the heat exchanger can be removed by disconnecting 
all water piping and lifting it out from the side.  

10.9 

RE-INSTALL HEAT EXCHANGERS 

 

Carefully reinstall the heat exchanger if removed from 
the appliance. 

 

Check all gaskets and replace if damaged. 

 

Replace heat exchanger cover. 

 

Reassemble outer jacket panels. 

 

Cycle unit and check for proper operation. 

 

Replace the top cover 

10.10  COMBUSTION AIR FAN 

Combustion air fan should be checked every 6 months. 
Clean internal filter to fan as required when installed in a 
dust or dirt contaminated location. See Combustion Air Fan 
in the component section for cleaning procedure. The motor 
and bearings on the combustion air fan are sealed and 
permanently lubricated requiring no addition of oil or 
lubricants. 

10.11  COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR 

Check frequently to be sure that the flow of combustion and 
ventilation air to the appliance is not obstructed. 
Combustion and ventilation air must be provided to the 
mechanical room with openings sized per the requirements 
of the B149 or National Fuel Gas Code. The optional 
outdoor air kit brings combustion air from the outdoors 
directly to the appliance. 

10.12  CONTROL CIRCUIT VOLTAGE 

This appliance uses a transformer to supply a low voltage 
control circuit. The voltage on the secondary side should be 
24 to 28VAC when measured with a voltmeter. A secondary 
voltage of 21VAC or less supplied to 24VAC components 
may cause operational problems. A 4A circuit breaker is 
provided on the secondary side of the transformer. The 
circuit breaker is located on the front control panel. A 
tripped circuit breaker indicates a short in the 24VAC 
controls and must be corrected.  

10.13  COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS 

CAUTION 

Keep appliance clear from combustible materials; do not 
store GASOLINE and other flammable vapors and liquids 
in the proximity of the appliance. 

10.14  FREEZE PROTECTION 

Installations are not recommended in areas where the 
danger of freezing exists. Proper freeze protection must be 
provided for appliances installed outdoors, in unheated 
mechanical rooms or where temperatures may drop to the 
freezing point or lower. If freeze protection is not provided 
for the system, a low ambient temperature alarm is 
recommended for the mechanical room. Damage to the 
appliance by freezing is non-warrantable.  

 

Location - Heating boilers, hot water supply boilers or 
water heaters must be located in a room having a 
temperature of at least 50ºF (10ºC) 

 

Caution - A mechanical room operating under a 
negative pressure may experience a downdraft in the 
flue of an appliance that is not firing. The cold outside 
air may be pulled down the flue and freeze a heat 
exchanger. This condition must be corrected to provide
