Figure 9: Boiler Maintaining 180°F

Figures 9 and 10 are general wiring diagrams. For a maintaining temperature boiler, Figure 9 should closely match your system. For cold start boilers your wiring may resemble Figure 10, but will vary depending on the boiler type and controls or ­relays used. It is not possible to list all wiring

variations­ here. When connecting to a cold start boiler, always remember that in principle an indirect water heater operates as another heating zone. The ­difference is when the indirect water heater calls for heat, the indirect water heater circulator must start rather than opening a zone valve; the system circulator stays off; and the boiler must light to reach high limit.

This equipment must be properly grounded to ­prevent a potential shock hazard, and to reduce deterioration of the anode due to electrolysis. Refer to local electrical codes and ordinances.
