Multiple Water Heating Piping (CW Models Only) (See Notes)
NOTES:
1. When using intermittent pump and pump delay, locate HeatNet sensor with well in lower 1/3 of tank.
Install sensor with heat sensing compound.
2. Thermal expansion tank may be required, check local codes.
3. CAUTION: TEST WATER HARDNESS AND pH AT JOB SITE.
Be sure to specify when ordering the pH and water hardness. This must be measured before selecting heat
exchanger and pump. Consult the Heat Exchanger Graph before making selection.
4. Common piping must be sized for maximum combined heater fl ow.
5. Hot water tanks should be equipped with a combination temperature & pressure relief valve.
6. MA Code requires an 1/8 in hole in check valve to compensate for thermal expansion.
7. Boiler and pump purging required. Air must be purged from 3-way valve after boiler is fi lled. Use purge
valves provided. Purge valve may be located on pump fl ange. On multiple boiler installations the fl ow switch
may fail due to trapped air. See manual procedure.
Notice: These drawings show suggested piping confi guration and valving. Check with local codes and ordinances for
specifi c requirements.
