WARNING
NOTICE
CHALLENGER Operation
•
Do not block flow of combustion air to the CHAL-
LENGER. If the combustion air blockage is easily
accessible and removable, then remove it. If block-
age is not obvious or cannot be removed, have the
appliance and system checked by a qualified service
technician.
•
Do not allow contaminated air to enter the appli-
ance’s combustion air inlet. See page 2 for details.
•
The CHALLENGER is equipped with a low water cut
off device. The CH (central heating) system piping
must be filled and pressurized to 12 psig [0.8 bar]
prior to startup. The appliance will shut down if the
pressure falls below 7 psig [0.5 bar].
•
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to
shut off, DO NOT turn OFF or disconnect the elec-
trical supply to the pump. Instead, shut off the gas
supply at a location external to the appliance.
•
Do not use this appliance if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified service techni-
cian to inspect the appliance and to replace any part
of the control system and any gas control, which has
been under water.
Appliance & System Water
•
Have the appliance and system water chemistry
checked at least annually by a qualified service tech-
nician.
•
Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing
compounds in the appliance or system. Gaskets
and seals in the system may be damaged. This can
result in substantial property damage.
•
Do not use any product not specifically designed for
hydronic heating systems. Serious damage to the
appliance, piping system, personnel and / or proper-
ty may result.
•
Continual fresh makeup water will reduce the life of
the CHALLENGER. Addition of oxygen can cause
internal corrosion in the system components. All
leaks in the piping system must be repaired at once
to prevent makeup water.
•
Do not add cold water to a hot appliance. Thermal
shock can cause premature failure to the appliance
heat exchanger.
