Turn on power supply. Set thermostat fan switch to on. Set the cool-

ing indicator to maximum, heating to minimum. System switch may 

be on heat or cool. Check slope gauge measurement against appro-

priate air flow chart. Make damper, register and motor speed adjust

-

ments to obtain required airflow.

Set thermostat fan switch to auto, system to heat and thermostat 

heating indicator to maximum heat. Blower should start and all heat 

be energized.

Check air flow using temperature rise method.

Purging The System

1.

 Open air vent and allow water heater to fill with water. Close air 

vent when water heater is full and all air has been purged.

2.

 Ignite water heater. Set thermostat on water heater to 140 de-

grees.

3.

 Close the valve on the hot water supply from the water heater (“A”) 

and open the valve on the cold water return to the water heater (“B”). 

Then open the air vent in the fan coil. Use bucket or hose to discard 

water during purging process at air bleed valve. Purge air completely 

from line.

4.

 Once air is purged, close return valve (“B”) and open supply valve 

(“A”). Purge the coil and lines of air completely.

5.

 After air is purged from the system and filled with water, open the 

return valve (“B”). Then close the air vent in the fan coil.

6.

 Apply power to the fan coil and set the room thermostat on heat. 

Raise the temperature setting to activate the circulating pump

7.

 Check the pump to ensure proper operation. The water inlet of the 

unit should be hot if the water temperature in the water heater has 

reached the set point. If water is not being circulated through the coil 

but the pump is running, then open the air bleed valve in the unit and 

purge any air left in the system.

8.

 Adjust the water heater thermostat so that the water temperature 

entering the hot water coils is 120 – 180ºF depending on the amount 

of heat required by the structure. This is done with the unit energized  

and operating long enough for all temperatures to stabilize.

After all connections are made, start-up and check-up must be per-

formed before proper evaluation of the entire system can be made. 

Make sure that heat anticipator is properly set as noted on thermo-

stat instructions.

Load requirements can vary in each residence and it may be neces

-

sary for the installer or homeowner to make slight adjustments to the 

heat anticipator setting for longer or shorter cycles. It is recommend-

ed to change the setting no more than plus or minus 0.05 amps at 

a time. Greater changes can cause the unit to rapid cycle or remain 

on excessively. To properly check the unit’s operation, the installer 

should have an electrical current measuring device (0-10 amp Am-

probe, Fluke), air pressure measuring device (0-1.0 in slope gauge), 

and a temperature-measuring device (0-200ºF thermometer).

Install the Amprobe to measure blower current, the slope gauge to 

measure static air pressure at the units and the temperature device 

to measure unit supply and return air temperature. Before taking 

measurements, be sure that all registers, grilles and dampers are 

open or are set to their proper positions. Be sure that clean filters are 

in place. Temperature measuring device must be installed to obtain 

average temperature at both inlet and outlet. For outlet, measure 

temperature of each main trunk at a location far enough away to 

avoid heater radiation and read the average temperatures. Table 

16-1 below shows the CFM that should be achieved at various exter-

nal static pressures.
