12.7 - Adjusting the  
domestic hot water 
temperature

The domestic hot water temperature is 
adjusted by turning knob “11” shown in 
fi gure 37. When the knob is turned, the 
display, item “1” in fi gure 37, shows a 

fl ashing 

 and the temperature being 

selected. The range within which the 
domestic hot water can be set is 104°F 
(40°C) to 140°F (60°C) or from 104°F 
(40°C) to 158°F (70°C) when an indirect 
storage tank is used.

12.8 - Heating 
system temperature 
adjustment

The boiler provides hot water to the 
heating system at the temperature 
set by adjusting knob “7” as shown 
in figure 37. The room thermostat 
turns the boiler’s circulator pump on 
in order to satisfy the heat demand of 
the rooms controlled by the thermostat. 
To maximize the boilers’ performance, 
temperature knob “7”, should be set at 
a value that is just suffi cient to maintain 
the desired temperature of the rooms. As 
the weather gets colder, progressively 
increase the water temperature by 
adjusting knob “7”. When the weather 
gets milder turn the water temperature 
down. This extremely simple method 
is suitable for the following types of 
systems: 
1. small systems with radiators where 

the thermostat is installed in a room 
whose temperature is characteristic 
of all the other rooms; 

2. large systems with radiators, where 

each zone is controlled by its own 
room thermostat. Where zone valves 
are used the boiler pump is shutdown 
only when all the room thermostats 
are satisfi ed.

3. large systems with low temperature 

radiant panels , where each zone is 
controlled by its own room thermostat. 
Where zone valves are used the boiler 
pump is shutdown only when all the 
room thermostats are satisfi ed.

CAUTION!!! If the boiler 

is installed in a low temperature 
system follow the settings specifi ed 
in section 5.9 or the heating system 
may be damaged. 

12.9 - Heating 
system type 
selection

The boiler is factory set for wall stat 
control as per section 12.8. 
The heating system type can be changed 
by going to the “Installers’ Menu” in 

section 12.17 and changing the 

 

parameter. One of the three following 
heating modes can be selected: 
-CH = 00 “Wall stat control”: follow 
section 12.8; 
-CH = 01 “Outdoor reset control”: follow 
section 12.10 (an outdoor temperature 
sensor is required); 
-CH = 02 “Outdoor reset control with 
room compensation control”: follow 
section 12.10 to 12.10.6 (an outdoor 
temperature sensor is required): 

12.10 - Outdoor 
reset adjustment

While in the “Installers’ Menu”, set the 

 parameter to 01. In this mode 

the heating supply water temperature, 
calculated temperature in fi gures  38 
and 39, will be adjusted automatically 
based on the input from the outdoor 
temperature sensor. The relationship 
between the outdoor temperature 
and the supply water temperature, 
corresponds with the graphs shown in 
fi gures 38 and 39. In order to change 
the relationship between the supply 
water temperature and the outdoor 
temperature, all the parameters listed 
in the sections below must be set.

12.10.1 - Outdoor 
reset applications

Outdoor reset is a sophisticated way to 
maximize comfort and boiler effi ciency. 
It is suitable for the following system 
types: 
A - small systems, with radiators where 

the thermostat is installed in a room 
whose temperature is characteristic 
of all the other rooms. The room 
thermostat is used to turn the boiler 
on and off. 

B - Iarge systems, with radiators, where 

each zone is controlled by its own 
room thermostat. Where zone valves 
are used the boiler pump is shutdown 
only when all the room thermostats 
are satisfi ed (see to an appropriate 
electrical system). 

C - small systems, with low tempera-

ture radiant panels where the 
thermostat is installed in a room 
whose temperature is characteristic 
of all the other rooms. The room 
thermostat is used to turn the boiler  
on and off. In this type of system it is 
necessary to consider that the radiant 
panel systems sometimes have long 
lag times. It may be necessary to 
adapt the heating system and use the 

“Reaction” 

 parameter in order 

to compensate, see section 12.17. 

D - Iarge systems with low temperature 

radiant where each zone is controlled 
by its own room thermostat. Where 
zone valves are used the boiler pump 
is shutdown only when all the room 
thermostats are satisfi ed. 

CAUTION! If the boiler is 

installed in a low temperature 
system, follow the settings specifi ed 
in section 5.9 or the heating system 
may be damaged.
