ADDING DOMESTIC HOT WATER STORAGE

Tankless Domestic Hot Water with a Storage Tank

The SFT series unit has the ability to connect a domestic hot water storage tank 

to the unit to provide larger volumes of domestic hot water during peak demands. 
The storage tank is piped to the unit’s domestic hot and cold water piping 

connections

.

 You must install a bronze or stainless steel pump to circulate water 

from the storage tank through the unit’s domestic hot water coil. 

 

Alternatively, you can wire the pump and aquastat together without connecting 

to the unit. When the line-voltage aquastat energizes the pump, the flow sensor 

detects the flow of domestic water and activates the water heater to heat to its 

programmed temperature. 

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

When the unit is powered up the controller enters a self-diagnostic mode, and 

displays “2” in the Service Display.
The sequence of operation is as follows:

1 .

  The unit receives a call from domestic hot water heating from the internal 

flow sensor.

2 .

  The unit does a safety check and energizes the fan for a pre-purge  (

Service 

Display = 3

).

3 .

  Once the 5-second pre-purge is compete, the unit enters a 5-second trial for 

ignition (

Service Display = 4

).  If the unit fails to ignite, the unit will complete a 

5-second inter-purge then another 5-second trial for ignition.  This is repeated 

4 times before a hard lock-out occurs. The Return button must be pressed to 

reset the controller and to allow for another attempt.

4 .

  Once the burner is lit and flame has been proven the unit operates as it is 

programmed (

Service Display

 = 

+

for domestic hot water).

5 .

  If the unit reaches its target temperature and there is still a call for hot water 

the burner will turn off. (

Service Display = 1

).

NOTE

The unit is equipped with 

a Frost Protection feature. 

This feature will operate the 

unit’s burner to help protect 

the unit from freezing.  IBC is 

not responsible for damages 

to the unit, and/or related 

components, nor property 

damages that may result from 

freezing conditions.
