Oxygen diffusion barrier underfloor tubing
The boiler warranty does not cover leaks resulting from
corrosion caused by the use of underfloor plastic tubing
without an oxygen diffusion barrier. Such systems must
have the non-oxygen diffusion barrier tubing separated
from the boiler with a heat exchanger.
Viessmann recommends the use of underfloor plastic
tubing with an oxygen diffusion barrier.
Water quality
Treatment for boiler feed water should be considered in
areas of known problems, such as where a high mineral
content and hardness exist. In areas where freezing might
occur, an antifreeze may be added to the system water
to protect the system. Please adhere to the specifications
given by the antifreeze manufacturer.
Do not use automotive silicate based antifreeze. Please
observe that an antifreeze/water mixture may require a
backflow preventer within the automatic water feed and
influence components such as diaphragm expansion tanks,
radiation, etc. Maximum antifreeze content is 50% for the
B1HA 26, 35, 94, 125 and 30% for the B1KA 35, 125.
Do not use antifreeze other than specifically made for hot
water heating systems.
The system may also contain components which might
be negatively affected by antifreeze.
Check total system frequently when filled with antifreeze.
Advise system operator/ultimate owner that system is filled
with a glycol mix.
The heating contractor must provide a MSDS (Material
Safety Data Sheet) for the antifreeze used to the system
operator/ultimate owner.

the boiler other than that mentioned in the boiler
literature.
- tampering with or attempting to readjust
the factory settings of the combination gas valve
- leaks resulting from corrosion caused by
the use of underfloor plastic tubing without an
oxygen diffusion barrier.
