SECTION 6
Condensate Drain Trap
This appliance creates condensation at some operating
conditions as a by-product of cold water supply
conditions. A condensate drain trap is pre-installed at the
back of the unit and is used to drain the condensate from
the heat exchanger. See Figure 11. This condensate
drain trap must be connected to a condensate disposal
system, to prevent the accumulation of condensate.
Connect a ¾” PVC pipe between the drain connection
and a floor drain. The PVC pipe must continuously slope
downward toward the drain, with no spiraling. If there is
no accessible floor drain, or if the drain pipe cannot be
installed with the proper slope, a condensate pump will
be needed to ensure that condensate is removed.
Consult local codes for direction on disposal of
condensate. In some cases (code requirements or drain
material), condensate will need to be neutralized. A
condensate neutralizer is not included with the unit, but
is available from the manufacturer as an accessory. If
a neutralizer is required, it is helpful to install the boiler
or water heater on a raised 4” (minimum) concrete
platform. This will generally allow sufficient elevation
for the condensate neutralizer to be installed below the
condensate trap. See Figure 11.
If the unit is installed outdoors in a location that may
experience freezing temperatures, precautions must be
taken to prevent condensate from freezing. Damage due
to freezing condensate is not covered by the warranty.

Condensate
Drain Trap
CAUTION
Condensate is mildly acidic (pH
=
5) and may harm
some floor drains and/or pipes, particularly those
that are metal. Ensure that the drain, drainpipe,
and anything that will come in contact with the
condensate can withstand the acidity, or neutralize
the condensate before disposal.
Damage caused
by failure to install a neutralizer kit or to
adequately treat condensate will not be the
manufacturer’s responsibility.
CAUTION
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing
controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous
operation. Verify proper operation after operation servicing.
ATTENTION
Au moment de l’entretien des commandes, étiquetez
tous les fils avant de les débrancher. Les erreurs de
câblage peuvent nuire au bon fonctionnement et être
dangereuses. S’assurer que l’appareil fonctionne
adéquatement une fois l’entretien terminé.
WARNING
The unit must be electrically grounded in accordance with
the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction or, in
the absence of such requirements, with the latest edition
of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, in the
U.S. and with the latest edition of CSA C22.1 Canadian
Electrical Code, Part 1, in Canada. Do not rely on the gas
or water piping to ground the metal parts of the unit. Plastic
pipe or dielectric unions may isolate the unit electrically.
Service and maintenance personnel, who work on or
around the unit, may be standing on wet floors and could
be electrocuted by an ungrounded unit. Electrocution can
result in severe injury or death.
Single pole switches, including those of safety controls and
protective devices, must not be wired in a grounded line.
All electrical connections are made on the terminal blocks
that are located inside the control panel.
All internal electrical components have been prewired. No
attempt should be made to connect electrical wires to any
other location except the terminal blocks.

7.A Installation Warnings
CAUTION
The supply voltage to this unit must not be
disconnected, except for service or isolation, or unless
otherwise instructed by procedures outlined in this
manual. To signal a call for heat, use the heat demand
inputs, as shown in the wiring diagram.
DO NOT MAKE AND BREAK THE LINE VOLTAGE
TO THE UNIT TO SIGNAL A CALL FOR HEAT. A
call for heat/end call for heat MUST be connected to
the heat demand terminals. Some components are
designed to have constant voltage during normal
operation. If the units supply voltage is toggled as
a call for heat signal, premature failure of these
components may result.
