Section 6 - System Installation
Purging Air from the System - Manual Air
Bleeders
Manual air bleeders may be installed in the high points
of the water lines where air may get trapped and cause
circulation problems. Water can be pumped to levels
higher than the outdoor furnace as long as the pump
is pushing the water to the higher level and there are
no air leaks in the system. Additionally, air should be
purged from the system using pressurized domestic
water and a hose with two female ends (see Fig. 29).
WARNING
The outdoor furnace vent cap must fit loosely on
the vent opening. Do not force the cap down or
try to seal it tightly onto the vent pipe. Do not
extend or restrict the vent pipe or opening. DO
NOT ALLOW THE OUTDOOR FURNACE TO BE
PRESSURIZED.
If any auto float vents are present in the system, they
must be capped off tightly to prevent air from entering
the system.

Guide (p/n 2482) for more detailed information.
WATER HEATER INSTALLATION
WARNING
DO NOT disable or remove any safety reliefs or
controls. Turn off the power to the water heater
before installation.
When installing a domestic hot water heat exchanger,
the hot supply line from the outdoor furnace should be
plumbed first to the water heater heat exchanger and
then to the balance of the heating system.
A manual 3-way valve may be installed so that during the
non-heating season, the water heater may be operated
without operating the entire heating system (see Fig.
30). A tempering valve (or thermostatic mixing valve)
is to be installed in the hot water outlet from the water
heater. Install a tee in a fitting on the top of the water
heater (see Fig. 32) for the hot water heat exchanger.
NOTE: If the water heater has been in service,
flush the water heater prior to installing the hot
water heat exchanger. Anode rod residue or
other sediments in the water heater may plug the
heat exchanger.
NOTE: Some gas water heaters are equipped
with a high water temperature probe that is
connected to the gas valve. When the water
temperature exceeds the high limit, the gas valve
enters a non-resettable lock out condition. This
requires replacement of the entire valve. The
installer must determine if this type of valve is
present before installation of a water-to-water
heat exchanger.
CAUTION
Costly maintenance may be incurred if steps
are not taken during installation to reduce or
eliminate the possibility of the water temperature
in the water heater exceeding the high limit.

NOTE
Use softened water if
water has a high mineral
content to avoid plugging
the heat exchanger.
NOTE
Installer must comply
with all applicable codes
and regulations.
NOTE
Outdoor furnace water
temperature setpoint
should be set at 185˚F
(85˚C) minimum.
NOTE
A pump must be installed
in the hot supply line
between the outdoor
furnace and thermostatic
valve.
NOTE
If outdoor furnace is not
being used for an
extended period of time
to heat water, this valve
should be closed to
prevent heat loss from
the water heater through
the side arm exchanger.
