Remember, safety is the installer’s responsibility and the installer must know this product well enough to instruct the 
end user on its safe use. 

 

Safety is a matter of common sense - - a matter of thinking before acting.  Professional installers have training and 
experienced practices for handling electrical, sheet metal, and material handling processes.  Use them.

CAUTION

 

Electro Industries Inc. requires the use of dielectric isolation between the boiler vessel supply and return 
piping when the boiler is plumbed using copper or any other dissimilar metal.  Damage to the vessel 
caused by galvanic corrosion voids Electro Industries’ warranty. 

 

Reference drawing BX304 

 

At the outlet pipe the first fitting must be the supplied Tee with the sensor well fitting.  It is important that the WarmFlo

®

 

aquastat sensor be as close as possible to the vessel, reference detail A on drawing BH304.  Please reference BD705 for 
proper installation of the sensor.  After the Tee and the sensor have been permanently installed, route the sensor cable 
along the right side of the unit and properly affix (do not puncture cable) to the wall. 

 

The plumbing components and piping layout shown on drawing BX304 has been very carefully picked and should be 
plumbed as shown.  When following this diagram, the water fill procedure becomes very simple and almost guarantees the 
removal of all air or prevents air locking problems.  Experienced hydronic heating installers may be able to eliminate 
components such as regulated fill valve, check valve, temperature gauge, etc., but the inclusion of these components 
guarantees installation and initial operating success. 

 

The key mechanical components required include:
