OPERATIONAL CHECKLIST

This checklist in conjunction with “TROUBLESHOOTING” and the “SEQUENCE OF OPERATION” should be used as an on-the-job
troubleshooting guide to identify the cause of incorrect system operation and suggest a remedy for its correction.  Because
improper piping and wiring can result in unsatisfactory system performance, it is suggested that the installation by examined
before using the checklist.  Be sure to refer to the correct piping and wiring diagram for the type of system that is installed.

The system should be filled with water, purged of air, valves properly set and utilities connected and ready to operate.
