Aquastat High Limit

The aquastat high limit controls the maximum water temperature in the boiler. If the water temperature reaches the set temperature before the demand for heat has been met, the aquastat high limit should shut the burners off. The outlet water temperature should never exceed 220°F, 104°C. If the aquastat high limit fails to function properly replace it.

WALL HUNG CONVERSION

This boiler is certified to be either mounted on the floor as supplied, or mounted on a wall.

For wall mounting, perform the following steps.

1.Ensure that the desired location provides adequate room for the clearance, see Table 1, venting, and servicing.

2.Remove the right stainless steel panel, and discard.

3.You will see that underneath the panel, the boiler frame has mounting holes, designed for wall attachment.

4.The boiler must be mounted so the lag bolts enter the studs of the wall. If this is not possible use a 3/4" thick of plywood approximately 24 in, 610 mm, wide by 36 in, 914 mm, high.

5.Install two #14-3" lag bolts three quarters of the way into the surface, to the height you desire for mounting.

6.Lift the boiler onto the wall, and tighten the top lag bolts.

7.Once the unit is level, install the bottom two #14-3" lag bolts.

8.Remove the Air Inlet Pipe assembly and Metering elbow from the gas valve-venturi assembly, Figure 45.

9.Remove the two screws attaching the gas valve- venturi assembly to the side of the blower and rotate the valve 90° so the 1/2" threaded connection is pointing down, Figure 46. Pay close attention to how the cork gasket is aligned.
