PRE-START-UP
Filling System-Heating Heaters
Fill system with water. Purge all air from the system using purge valve sequence. After system is purged of air, lower system pressure. Open valves for normal system operation, fill system through feed pressure. Manually open air vent on the compression tank until water appears, then close vent.
Domestic Hotwater Heaters
Purge all air from system before lighting heater. This can be normally be accomplished by opening a down- stream valve.
Inspect Venting System:
1.Check all vent pipe connections and flue pipe material.
2.Ensure vent terminations are installed per code and are clear of all debris or blockage.
