1.7. Locating Water Heater
• This water heater is not intended for outdoor installations.
• Keep distance between boiler and water heater to
a minimum to:
– Reduce piping heat loss
– Provide minimal friction loss
• A water heater should always be located in an area
with a floor drain.
• Locate water heater so that any leakage from the
tank or water connections will not cause damage
to the area adjoining the water heater or to lower
floors in the structure.
– When such a location is unavoidable, a suitable
drain pan with adequate drainage, should be
placed under the water heater.
• The MONARCH Series Water Heaters are designed
for vertical installation only.

1.8. Recommended Clearances
Water heater should be installed to allow adequate
clearance for servicing.
Zero clearance is permissible to any side of the MON-
ARCH Series water heater that has no connection, but
information labels must be visible for inspection.
The clearance required for any accessory or fitting that
will be installed on either the heating and/or domestic
circuits must be taken into account.
• Recommended top or vertical clearance is
12” minimum.
• Refer to boiler manual for boiler clearances.

Antifreeze must be replaced at a minimum every 3-5
years or what is specified by the manufacturer of the
antifreeze.
When using antifreeze in the heating system circula-
tor sizing must be considered because of the increase
viscosity of the glycol mixture, a higher head circulator
may be required. The glycol will also lower the heat ca-
pacity and the BTU output will be reduced by approxi-
mately 16-20% when using a mixture of 50% propylene
glycol and 50% water. The reduced heating capacity at
a 50/50 mixture will vary depending on the brand and
makeup of the glycol. Glycol will reduce the efficiency
and output of the indirect water heater because of this.
When adding other additives to the heating system gly-
col water mixture make sure they are compatible with
the brand of glycol that is being used. Not all glycol and
additives are compatible.
Do not use automotive, ethylene glycol or pe-
troleum-based antifreeze. Do not use any un-
diluted antifreeze. This can cause substantial
property damage, serious injury, or death.
