Alcoves

Behind doors

Cold Spots

Concealed pipes or ducts

Stairwells - drafts

Unheated rooms on the other side
of the wall

Hot Spots

Concealed pipes

Fireplaces

TVs or radios

Lamps

Direct sunlight

Kitchens

Set heat anticipator at 0.7 amps. Connect 24 volt thermostat

leads to the two (2) yellow wires located in service switch

junction box, located on outer jacket of boiler. See Figure

#13 for service switch junction box and thermostat fi eld

wiring connections.

Connect Circulator Pump Wiring
See Figures #14A & #14B for service switch junction

box and circulator pump fi eld wiring connections. If the

two 120 volt circulator wire terminals inside the junction

box are not used, please leave the two wire nuts to prevent
the short circuit.

!

CAUTION

Label all wires prior to disconnection when

servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause

improper and dangerous operation. Verify

proper operation after servicing.

Run 14 gauge or heavier copper wire from boiler to

grounded connection in service panel or properly driven

and electrically grounded ground rod.

Installing The Thermostat
Thermostat location has important effect on

operation of your boiler system. BE SURE TO

FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED WITH YOUR

THERMOSTAT.

Locate thermostat about fi ve feet above fl oor on inside

wall. It may be mounted directly on wall or on vertical

mounted outlet box. It should be sensing average room

temperature.
