CAUTION
Failure to clean the system will result in erratic water lines and surging, and other improper system operations.
CLEAN HEATING SYSTEM IF boiler water or condensate return water is dirty or if erratic water lines or surging exist after a few days of boiler operation. Refer to step (K) for proper cleaning instructions for steam and water boilers.
1.STEAM BOILERS - Fill boiler to normal water line. As shown in Figure 1, the normal water line is 41½” from the floor or bottom of casting. At the start of each heating season and once or twice during the season try SAFETY VALVE to be sure it is in working condition. To do this, fasten wire or cord to lever of valve and pull lever — standing safe distance away from valve.
2.HOT WATER BOILERS - Fill entire Heating System with water and vent air from system. Use the following procedure on a Series Loop or Multi- zoned System to remove air from system when filling:
DANGER
Do not operate boiler with pressure above maximum allowable working pressure listed on the Boiler Rating Label.
DO NOT draw water from boiler while in use. When adding water while boiler is in operation, do not open supply valve fully but add water slowly.
1.PRESS RESET BUTTON on primary control and release.
2.On STEAM BOILERS set
3.On STEAM BOILERS WITH TANKLESS DOMESTIC WATER HEATERS, set boiler water temperature dial on low limit operating control at 190°F (max.). Set differential at 10°.
4.ON WATER BOILERS WITHOUT TANKLESS HEATERS, set high limit dial on L4006A at 210°F. This temperature may be varied to suit requirements
