3) The Maxi-Therm may be located some distance from the boiler provided the zone system is designed to

provide the flow called for in Table 1 through the coil. Also, the further the Maxi-Therm is from the
boiler, the longer the response of the boiler will be to a call from the Maxi-Therm zone. If long runs
exist between the boiler and Maxi-Therm,  it is advisable to insulate the piping.
