Water Additives 

 

 

 

Principles of Water Treatment

 

1) Minimize the corrosion potential of system metallurgy.

 

2) Keep water in the 8 to 10 pH range.

 

3) Acts as an oxygen scavenger.

 4) 

Water treatment supplied with the HEATMOR™ does not give any freeze protection. 

 

5) With proper chemical control, longer equipment life can be achieved. 

Addition of Water Treatment

     

When installing a completely new system, we recommend that the system first be filled with water only. After 

two or three days of operation, check that all air is out of the system, and all connections are leak free. Once the 

entire system is confirmed to be leak free, add the water treatment. 

To add water treatment to the HEATMOR™ furnace, follow these steps.

 

1) Before adding the treatment, drain out a corresponding amount of water. 

 

2) Remove the weighted pop off ball from the relief vent pipe.

 

3) Take a funnel and place it into the relief vent pipe.

 

4) Pour the entire contents of the water treatment chemical, as supplied, into the HEATMOR™ furnace.

 

5) Top up your HEATMOR™ furnace with water and fill the bladder. Refer to “

Filling the Bladder   

 

 

Initially” for details or contact your local dealer.

Water Treatment Maintenance / Result

The water in the HEATMOR™ should be chemically analyzed once per year to ensure the proper levels of 

treatment are being maintained. Contact your local dealer as to where to have your water tested. Provide the 

testing person with an amount of water from your HEATMOR™, equal to approximately 20 ounces, in a clean 

container. The amount of water treatment that has to be added yearly is dependent on how much fresh water 

you have added to your system since the last test. Be certain to add a water treatment that is approved by your 

dealer and HEATMOR™ Inc. 

 

ABSOLUTELY NO FIRE IN THE FIREBOX WHEN PERFORMING THIS REPAIR. DO NOT  

PERFORM THIS REPAIR WHEN UNIT WATER TEMPERATURE IS UNSAFE. ALWAYS WEAR PROPER 

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT WHEN WORKING WITH WATER AND CHEMICALS.
