For Water Systems
After flushing piping adequately, so all debris is removed, fill the system.
At initial operation, vent manually by unscrewing the vent plug one or
two turns, figure 41. After venting, tighten the vent plug firmly.
Water system under pressure. Keep face and body parts well
away from vent.
Unscrew the vent plug only one or two complete turns, and vent
slowly. Water pressure can result in severe personal injury.
Use piping shut off valves and connection unions for future
servicing to the coil supply and return stubs, instead of hard
piping. This permits easy removal of the coil or control valve if
servicing is required.

After making the piping connections, securely attach and insulate the
water-in temperature sensor (S5) to the water coil supply line. The
sensor should be located on the water supply line in an area where
there is continuous water flow. The sensor hangs loose in the same
end compartment as the coil connections. This sensor must be attached
correctly for proper unit operation.
After Brazing
Install provided donut shaped insulation seals around pipe fittings, by
removing white backing. Press seals up to coil partition to seal gaps
in partition insulation.
Donut insulation seals must be installed for proper air flow
through the coil.
