D. When Servicing the Boiler
• To avoid electric shock, disconnect electrical supply before
performing maintenance.
• To avoid severe burns, allow boiler and associated equipment
to cool before servicing.
• Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds
in an boiler system. Gaskets and seals in the system may be
damaged. This can result in substantial property damage.
• Do not use “homemade cures” or “patent medicines”.
Damage to the boiler, substantial property damage, and/or
serious personal injury may result.
• Always verify proper operation after servicing the boiler.
NOTE:
When inquiring about service or troubleshooting, reference
the model and serial numbers from the boiler rating label.
WARNING
!
Be sure to disconnect electrical power before opening boiler
cabinet or performing service. Label all wires while performing
service to ensure proper re-wiring of the boiler. Wiring errors can
cause improper or dangerous operation. Failure to do so could
result in an electrical shock, improper boiler operation, property
damage, serious personal injury, or death.
F. Water Chemistry Requirements
CAUTION
Chemical imbalance of the water supply may affect efficiency and
cause severe damage to the boiler and associated equipment.
Water quality must be professionally analyzed to determine
whether it is necessary to treat the water. Various solutions are
available to adjust water quality. Adverse water quality will affect
the reliability of the system. In addition, operating temperatures
above 135
o
F will accelerate the build-up of lime scale and possibly
shorten boiler service life. Failure of a boiler due to lime scale
build-up, low pH, or other chemical imbalance IS NOT covered by
the warranty.
The water must be potable, free of corrosive chemicals, sand,
dirt, and other contaminates. It is up to the installer to ensure the
water does not contain corrosive chemicals or elements that can
damage the heat exchanger. Potable water is defined as drinkable
water supplied from utility or well water in compliance with EPA
secondary maximum contaminant levels (40 CFR Part 143.3). If
the water contains contaminants higher than outlined by the EPA,
water treatment is recommended and additional, more frequent
maintenance may be required. See Table 1.
If you suspect that your water is contaminated in any way,
E. Boiler System
• Thoroughly flush the system (without the boiler connected)
to remove sediment. The high efficiency heat exchanger can
be damaged by build-up or corrosion due to sediment. The
manufacturer recommends a suction strainer in all systems.
• Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds
in a boiler system. Gaskets and seals in the system may be
damaged. This can result in substantial property damage.
• Do not use “homemade cures” or “patent medicines”.
Damage to the boiler, substantial property damage, and/or
serious personal injury may result.
Continual fresh make-up water will reduce boiler life. Mineral
buildup in the heat exchanger reduces heat transfer, overheats
the stainless steel heat exchanger, and causes failure. Addition of
oxygen from make-up water can cause internal corrosion in system
components. Leaks in the boiler or piping must be repaired at once.

G. Freeze Protection
CAUTION
Consider piping and installation when determining boiler location.
Damages resulting from incorrect installation or from use of products
not approved by the manufacturer ARE NOT covered by warranty.
WARNING
!
NEVER use any toxic chemical, including automotive, standard glycol
antifreeze, or ethylene glycol made for hydronic (non-potable)
systems. These chemicals can attack gaskets and seals in water
systems, are poisonous if consumed, and can cause personal injury
or death.
discontinue use of the boiler and contact an authorized technician or
licensed professional.
The boiler control is equipped with freeze protection that activates
based on internal water temperature. See the table below for details
on freeze protection operation.
NOTE: Freeze protection will not be active if the boiler loses power.

Freeze Protection Operation Range
Stage 1
- If control detects water
temperature of 46
o
F (8
o
C) and below, it
turns the internal and external pumps
On for 600 seconds and Off for 30
seconds. This cycle repeats until the
control detects inlet water temperature
of 50
o
F (10
o
C) and above.
ON or OFF
(Default: ON)
NOTE:
If using

OFF.
Stage 2 - If control detects water
temperature of 41
o
F (5
o
C) and below,
it turns the burner on to meet a target
temperature of 104
o
F (40
o
C). The burner
and internal and external pumps will
continuously during this stage until the
control detects inlet water temperature
of 104
o
F (40
o
C) and above.
Stage 3
- If control detects water
temperature of 34
o
F (1
o
C) and below,
Er: 85 will appear on the display.
