FORCED HOT WATER, CLOSED HYDRONIC HEATING SYSTEMS

A. General Installation Requirements

1. Do not "short circuit" the boiler

Do not connect boiler supply and return lines to the same section or in the same flow circuit in a boiler, because the boiler water returning from the BOILER MATE™ will "short circuit" and exit the boiler too cold for proper heat transfer.

2.Avoid high flow domestic water recirculating loops

If a recirculating loop is necessary consult applicable Code requirements. A flow of no more than 1/2 gpm is all that is generally needed for temperature maintenance at the furthest hot water fixture. Any flow greater than 1/2 gpm will result in excessive heat loss and reduction in performance.

3. Locating Unit

Do not locate this product where FORCED HOT WATER, CLOSED HYDRONIC HEATING SYSTEMS leaking and flooding could cause damage to surrounding property.

The BOILER MATE™ should be located in an area where water leakage from the tank or connections will not result in damage to areas adjacent to the application or to lower floors of the structure. When such a location cannot be avoided, a suitable drain pan must be installed. The pan must be connected to a drain. The installation location for this unit should also be chosen to comply with the follow- ing required and recommended dimensions for clearance and accessibility:

Clearance from Combustible Surfaces

This unit is design certified by the C.S.A. for installation on combustible flooring and in alcoves, closets, etc. The min- imum clearance dimensions from combustible material is as follows: (See dimensions given facing units)

4. Instructions for reversing unit:

The unit is designed to be reversible, i.e. depending on the particular installation area, the BOILER MATE™ can be rotated 180° for easier connection to the boiler and cold water supply. All units are shipped "left-handed" with all connections (boiler, cold water supply) on the left side of the unit. If, for ease of installation, it is necessary to have the connections on the right, the following steps should be taken:

1.Carefully remove the front panel (remove top screw and unhook from stand).

2.Move the access panel/electronic control assem- bly to the opposite side of the BOILER MATE™.

3.Remove the ground screw from the BOILER MATE™ stand and save.

4.Proceed with electrical installation

5.Reassemble the access panel/electronic control to the BOILER MATE™.

6.Confirm that the temperature sensor is firmly inserted into the thermostat well.

7.Proceed with the installation.
