WARMBOARD COMFORT SYSTEM // ELECTRIC
WARMSOURCE-E PREPARATION
Install Location
Before installing Warmsource-E, it’s important
to consider its location. Like all electric boilers,
Warmsource-E does make a small amount of noise,
which may be disruptive if installed near a bedroom
or common living space. Garages and basements
are the better choice. Installation of a drain pan,
especially in living spaces, is highly recommended.
Installing Distribution Lines
Once the the tubing and manifolds are installed,
it’s time for the manifold distribution lines.
Sizing, layout and length of the piping can be
found in the WCS Design Drawings.
