The water side resistance curve of the boiler is shown in the diagram in Figure 4-7.
The pump is not an integral part of the boiler. It is recommended to choose a pump with the rate and
delivery head at about 2/3 of its characteristic heating curve.

NOTE:
The use of a mixing header fitted between the boiler circuit and the system circuit is always
advisable. It becomes INDISPENSABLE if the system requires flow rates superior to the maximum
permitted boiler flow rates, which is to say lower than 27° F (15 K).
4.14 Condensate Piping And Drain
To avoid condensate collecting inside the combustion exhaust system, the condensate piping must
slope toward the drain at least 3/8 inch per foot (30 mm/m).
The liquid column, inside the condensate siphon, (see Condensate Siphon Filling Plug in Figure 4-8)
needs to be filled with water after installation. The minimum height of the water in the column, when all
the fans are in operation, must be at least 25 mm (1 in.).
In order to avoid ice formation while the boiler is operating, which can cause the boiler to stop
functioning, the entire condensate evacuation system must be well insulated. Note that it is forbidden
