Selection data

Controls

Weil-McLain offers an excellent selection of boiler sequencing controls. Refer to individual manuals for details.

Domestic hot water

Refer to Weil-McLain Piping Guides and PLUS Water Heater Manual and Ultra PLUS Supplement for suggested piping diagrams.

Venting and combustion air

Ultra boilers must be vented individually. Combustion air must be piped to the boiler as well, but may be manifolded as shown on page 13. Follow Weil-McLain Ultra Boiler Venting Supplement and Boiler Manual plus information in this manual. Failure to comply will result in severe personal injury or death.

Additional considerations

1.Review the Ultra Boiler Manual and applicable supplements prior to designing and installing multiple- Ultra-boiler jobs.

2.Ultra boilers are design-certified for installation on combustible flooring (not carpet).

3.Ultra boilers are tested for 30 P.S.I. working pressure (higher pressure not available).

4.For systems requiring greater than 30 P.S.I. relief valve setting, install a heat exchanger to isolate the boilers from the main system. See page 12 for suggested piping.

5.Maximum operating temperature of each boiler is 190°F.

This manual provides general guidelines for piping and installation. Your installation must comply with all applicable local codes.

When using isolation valves on each boiler, some codes may require providing a low water control and additional limit for each boiler. If desired, consult the codes to determine if exclusion of the individual boiler isolation valves may allow the use of a single water level control and additional limit for the entire multiple boiler system.
