A. OPERATION AND INSTALLATION WARNINGS
To save time and money, review the following initial diagnostic steps before calling for service.
Vapors from ammable liquids will explode and can cause a re, resulting in personal injury or death. The appliance has a burner that can come
on at any time and ignite vapors. DO NOT use or store ammable liquids around the appliance.
Improper venting can cause a build-up of carbon monoxide. Breathing carbon monoxide can result in brain damage or death. DO NOT operate
the appliance unless it is properly vented to the outside and has an adequate fresh air supply for safe operation. Inspect the exterior exhaust gas
outlet port and fresh air inlet port on a regular basis to ensure they are functioning properly.
A concentration of carbon monoxide as small as .04% (400 parts per million) in the air can be fatal. When making high re or low re adjustments,
CO levels must be monitored using a ue gas analyzer such that a CO level of no more than 400 ppm is exceeded at any time during operation.
Adjusting the “low re offset" on the gas valve in even small increments can result in a signicant increase in CO concentration. To avoid serious
injury or death, DO NOT make any adjustments to the gas valve without monitoring the exhaust gases with a fully functional and calibrated ue
gas analyzer.
Failure to follow these statements will result in property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
DANGER
WARNING
This appliance must be installed by a licensed plumber, licensed gas tter, and/or professional service technician. Improper installation and/or
operation can cause a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death, and will void the warranty.
Rheem Manufacturing Company cannot anticipate every circumstance that might involve a potential hazard. Each installation has its own
specialized characteristics, requirements, and possible hazards. Therefore, all possible incidents are not included in these warnings. Proper and
safe installation, operation, and service are the responsibility of the professional service technician.

WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
CAUTION
NOTICE
B. IMPROPER COMBUSTION
C. GAS
Should overheating occur or gas supply fails to shut off, do not turn off or disconnect electrical supply to the water heating appliance.
Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location external to the appliance.
D. WHEN SERVICING THE APPLIANCE
To avoid electric shock, disconnect electrical supply before performing maintenance.
To avoid severe burns, allow appliance to cool.
Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds in an appliance system. Gaskets and seals in the system may be damaged, possibly

This heater can deliver scalding water. Be careful whenever using hot water to avoid scalding injury. Certain appliances, such as dishwashers and automatic
clothes washers may require increased water temperature. By setting the thermostat on this heater to obtain the increased water temperature required by
these appliances, you may create the potential for scald injury.
To protect against injury, you should install a mixing valve in the water system. This valve will reduce point of discharge temperature by mixing cold and hot
water in branch supply lines. Such valves are available from your local plumbing supplier.
Table 3 details the relationship of water temperature and time with regard to scald injury and may be used as a guide in determining the safest water
temperature for your applications.
Water Temperature over 125°F can cause
severe burns instantly or death from scalds.
Children, disabled and elderly are at highest risk of
being scalded.
See instruction manual before setting the DHW
temperature at the Combi Boiler.
Feel water before bathing or showering.

1. Vent system must be installed in accordance with local codes, or, in absence of local codes, the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54
and/or CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.
2. For installation in Canada, installer supplied plastic vent piping must comply with CAN/CSA B149.1 and be certied to the Standard for Type BH
Gas Venting Systems, ULC-S636. Components of this listed system must not be interchanged with other vent systems or unlisted pipes or ttings.
All plastic components and specied primers and glues must be from a single system manufacturer and must not be intermixed with another
system manufacturer’s products. Clean and dry all applicable surfaces before applying cement.
3. This appliance is designed to be installed in a power vent (using indoor air for combustion and vented to the outdoors) type, or as a direct vent
(sealed combustion) type. In power vent installations, indoor air is used for combustion and exhaust gases are vented directly to the outdoors
through a sealed exhaust vent piped through the wall or roof. In direct vent installations, combustion air must be supplied directly from the outdoors
to the burner, and the ue (exhaust) gases should be vented directly to the outdoors through the wall or roof.
4. This appliance uses 2" or 3" diameter pipe for exhaust vent and intake pipe. It is important to ensure an airtight seal from the appliance collar to
the vent terminations. See Table 10 for a list of Approved Vent Materials.
5. Do not install venting system components on the exterior of the building except as specically required by these instructions.
• Vent terminals must be at least 1 foot from any door, window, or gravity inlet into the building.
• Maintain the correct clearance and orientation between the exhaust vent and intake pipe terminals.
The exhaust vent and air intake terminals must be at the same height and their center lines must be spaced apart 1 foot minimum.
The bottom of the exhaust vent and intake pipe terminals must be at least 1 foot above the normal snow accumulation level. In no case should
these terminals be installed less than 1 foot above normal snow accumulation level.
• Do not install the exhaust vent terminals directly above windows or doors.
Intake pipe terminal must not terminate in areas that might contain combustion air contaminates, such as near swimming pools.
For sidewall venting, the minimum horizontal distance between adjacent exhaust vent terminations is 1 foot. It is recommended this distance be
greater than 1 foot to better avoid frost damage to building surfaces.
For roof venting, minimum horizontal distance between any adjacent exhaust vent termination is 1 foot.
If the exhaust vent is to be terminated in a walled off area (such as a roof with a parapet wall), ensure the exhaust vent terminates a minimum of
10' from nearest wall and extends level with or above the top of the wall. This will ensure ue gas does not get trapped and possibly recirculated
into the intake air pipe, which could contaminate the combustion air.
Do not locate vent over public walkways, driveways, or parking lots. Condensate could drip and freeze, resulting in a slip hazard or damage to
vehicles and machinery.
A. INTAKE PIPE AND EXHAUST VENT GUIDELINES
WARNING
DO NOT mix vent systems or materials unless specically told to do so in this manual.
DO NOT thermally insulate the exhaust vent or intake pipes.
DO NOT use an electric damper, vent damper, or draft hood with this appliance.
DO NOT locate the exhaust vent or intake pipe terminations where exposed to prevailing winds.
Moisture will be produced by the exhaust vent. Take precautions when determining exhaust vent termination. Moisture may fall from the vent
termination to the ground and turn to ice in freezing conditions. Moisture or ice can produce a hazardous condition.
Exhaust condensate is acidic, and could deteriorate the surface below the exhaust vent termination. Ensure this surface is in good repair (sealed,
painted, etc.) to prevent deterioration.
Pitch the exhaust vent pipe ¼" per foot back to the appliance. This ensures that condensate in the exhaust vent returns to the appliance and
drains properly.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in property damage, severe personal injury, or death.

DO NOT vent where condensate vapor could cause damage or could be detrimental to the operation of regulators, relief valve, or other
equipment.
Maximum Snow Level Determination: These installation instructions reference snow levels in establishing a minimum height for the installation of
exhaust vent or air intake terminations. Snow levels shall be determined as follows:
a. The installation location may, by ordinance, designate how snow levels are calculated in that location; or
b. In the absence of specic ordinances, snow levels shall be calculated from the average monthly maximum depth of snow accumulation as
indicated by the National Weather Service’s 10 year statistics for the installation location/geographical area.
In addition:
• Total length of vent piping shall not exceed the limits specied in this manual.
The ue products coming from the exhaust vent will create a large plume when the heater is in operation. Avoid venting in areas that will affect
neighboring buildings or be considered objectionable.
• DO NOT locate exhaust vent or intake pipe in a parking area where machinery may damage the pipe.
In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and as Required by State and Local Codes:
The vented gas fueled appliance shall not be installed so its combustion, ventilation, or dilution air is obtained from a bedroom or bathroom.
Signage: Whenever any through-the-wall (horizontal or sidewall) vent is installed less than seven feet above the nished grade, a metal or plastic
identication plate shall be permanently mounted to the exterior of the building at a minimum height of eight feet above grade directly in line with
the exhaust vent terminal. The sign shall read, in print no less than 0.5 inches in size, “GAS VENT DIRECTLY BELOW. KEEP CLEAR OF ALL
OBSTRUCTIONS".
Marking of Exhaust Vent and Intake Pipe: Piping used for ventilation, make-up, or combustion air intake shall be labeled as follows:
a. Throughout the entire developed length:
i. Labels must be placed every ten feet for exposed/visible piping; or
ii. Labels must be placed every three feet for concealed piping.
b. At all changes of direction;
c. On each side of a penetration through a partition, wall or ceiling; and
d. The labels shall be black lettering that:
i. Indicates that the piping is used for ventilation, make-up, or combustion air intake, and
ii. The letters shall be sized equal to a minimum of the pipe diameter. However, for piping with a diameter exceeding two inches, said lettering
does not need to be larger than two inches.
WARNING
The building owner is responsible for keeping the exhaust and intake terminations free of snow, ice, or other potential blockages, as well as
scheduling routine maintenance. Failure to keep the vent piping terminations clear and properly maintain the heater could result in property
damage, severe personal injury, or death.
For each oor containing bedroom(s), a carbon monoxide detector and alarm shall be placed in the living area outside the bedrooms, as well as
in the room that houses the heater. Detectors and alarms shall comply with NFPA 720 (latest edition). Failure to comply with these requirements
could result in product damage, severe personal injury, or death.

D. TIGHTENING APPLIANCE COLLAR TO EXHAUST VENT AND INTAKE PIPE
WARNING
Vent adaptors are not designed as load-bearing devices, and must not be used to support exhaust vent piping. All vent pipes must be properly
connected, supported, and the exhaust must be pitched a minimum of ¼" per foot back to the boiler to allow drainage of condensate. Failure to
properly support vent piping and follow the information in this statement could result in product damage, severe personal injury, or death.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Failure to provide a minimum total vent length of 14 equivalent feet could result in property damage and improper appliance operation.
This Combi Boiler has a built-in control to limit the exhaust temperature to 149°F (65°C).
As a result, the Combi Boiler can be vented with Schedule 40 PVC.
In high temperature applications, the exhaust temperature can exceed 149°F (65°C).
In that case, you must use Schedule 40 CPVC or Approved Polypropylene (PP) in the USA or Type BHSpecial Gas Vent Class IIB (CPVC) or
Class IC(Polypropylene) that conforms to ULC-S636 in Canada.
a. The equivalent lengths of friction loss in elbows are listed below:
• 5 feet (1.5M) for each additional 3" 90° elbow
• 2.5 feet (.75M) for each additional 3" 45° elbow
• 8 feet (2.4M) for each additional 2" 90° elbow
• 4 feet (1.2M) for each additional 2" 45° elbow
Some terminations are considered elbows, and deduction should be applied. For example, a turndown 90° or an open T termination should
be considered a 90° elbow.
For 2" diameter installations, install a reducing coupling in a vertical section of pipe ABOVE the pipe clamp installed on the Boiler. See Figure 8.
b. For example: If the 2" exhaust vent has two 90° elbows and 10 feet of PVC pipe we will calculate: Exhaust Vent Equivalent Length = (2x8) + 10
= 26 feet.
Further, if the 2" intake pipe has one 90° elbow, one 45° elbow, and 10 feet of PVC pipe, the following calculation
applies: Intake Pipe Equivalent Length = 8 + 4 + 10 = 22 feet.
NOTE: The intake pipe and exhaust vent lengths do not have to be of equal length. There is no balancing requirement between intake and exhaust.
PVC Venting
This Combi Boiler is set to "PVC" (factory default). The Combi Boiler will control and maintain the exhaust temperature
below 144°F (62°C) and the Combi Boiler will shut down when the exhaust temperature exceeds 149°F (65°C).
CPVC or Polypropylene(PP) Venting
When you design a high temperature application (the exhaust temperature can exceed 149°F (65°C)),you must use Schedule 40 CPVC or Approved
Polypropylene (PP) in the USA or Type BH Special Gas VentClass IIB (CPVC) or Class IC(Polypropylene) that conforms to ULC-S636 in Canada and
must change theVent Material Setting as follows.
In this case, the Combi Boiler will control and maintain the exhaust temperature below 195°F (90.5°C)and the Combi Boiler will shut down when the
exhaust temperature exceeds 200°F (93°C).
This appliance uses 2" or 3" diameter pipe for exhaust vent and intake pipe. In order to use 2" pipe, it is required to reduce pipe size in a vertical length
of pipe with a reducing coupling (not included). Follow the steps below to install 2" or 3" pipe into the appliance collar. See Figure 7 & 8 for additional
details.
1. Clean and dry the appliance connection. DO NOT use primer or cement on the appliance connection.
2. Tighten the clamps using a screwdriver.
3. Ensure the pipe is secure before continuing installation.
4. For 2" installations, install a reducing coupling in a vertical section of pipe. See Figure 8.

4. Power Venting, Indoor Combustion Air Installation in
Conned or Unconned Space
This heater requires fresh, uncontaminated air for safe
operation and must be installed in a mechanical room where
there is adequate combustion and ventilating air. NOTE: To
prevent combustion air contamination, see Table 8.
Combustion air from the indoor space can be used if the
space has adequate area or when air is provided through a
duct or louver to supply sufcient combustion air based on
the heater input. Never obstruct the supply of combustion air
to the heater. If the heater is installed in areas where indoor
air is contaminated (see Figure 13) it is imperative that the
heater be installed as direct vent so that all combustion air
is taken directly from the outdoors into the heater intake
connection.
Unconfined space is space with volume greater than 50
cubic feet per 1,000 Btu/hour (4.8 cubic meters per kW) of
the total input rating of all fuel-burning appliances installed in
that space. Rooms connected directly to this space, through
openings not furnished with doors, are considered part of the
space.
Confined space is space with volume less than 50 cubic
feet per 1,000 Btu/hour (4.8 cubic meters per kW) of the
total input rating of all fuel-burning appliances installed in
that space. Rooms connected directly to this space, through
openings not furnished with doors, are considered part of the
space.
When drawing combustion air from inside a conventionally
constructed building to a conned space, such space should
be provided with two permanent openings: one located 6"
(15 cm) below the space ceiling, the other 6" (15cm) above
the space oor.Each opening should have a free area of one
square inch per 1,000 Btu/hr (22/kW) of the total input
of all appliances in the space, but not less than 100 square
inches (645).
If the conned space is within a building of tight construction,
air for combustion must be obtained from the outdoors as
outlined in the Venting section of this manual.See Figure 13.
WARNING
Breathing Hazard – Carbon Monoxide Gas
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause brain damage or death.
Always read and understand instruction manual.
Do not operate heater if ood damaged.
Install vent system in accordance with local codes
and manufacturers installation instructions.
Do not obstruct heater air intake or exhaust,
Support all vent piping per manufacturers
installation instructions.
Do not place chemical vapor emitting products
near unit.
According to NFPA 720, carbon monoxides
detectors should be installed outside each sleeping
area.
Never operate the heater unless it is vented to the
outdoors.
Analyze the entire vent system to make sure that
condensate will not become trapped in a section
of vent pipe and therefore reduce the open cross
sectional area of the vent.

1. Due to its efcient design, the appliance produces condensate (water) as a normal by-product. This condensate is acidic, with a pH level between
3 and 4. This condensate must be drained away from the appliance and disposed in accordance with all local regulations.
2. Use corrosion-resistant materials approved by the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) to drain condensate. In the absence of an AHJ, the included
exible plastic hose, or eld supplied ½" PVC and CPVC drain pipe complying with ASTM D1785, F441, or D2665 may be used. Cement must
comply with ASTM D2564 for PVC or F493 for CPVC. For Canadian applications, use CSA or ULC certied PVC or CPVC pipe, ttings, and
cement.
3. Local building codes may require an in-line neutralizer to be installed (not included) to treat the condensate. Follow all the installation instructions
included with the neutralizer. If a neutralizer is installed, periodic replacement of the limestone (or neutralizing agent) will be required. The rate of
depletion of the limestone varies with usage of the appliance. During the rst year of appliance operation, check the neutralizer every few months
for depletion.
4. Route the drain line to a nearby oor drain, laundry tub, or condensate pump.
1. Condensate line must be pitched at least 1/4" per foot to properly drain. If this cannot be done, or a very long length of condensate hose is used,
you must increase the condensate line to a minimum of 1" ID and place a tee in the line after the condensate neutralizer to properly reduce
vacuum lock in the drain line.
2. Plastic pipe should be the only material used for the condensate line. Steel, brass, copper, or other materials will be subject to corrosion or
deterioration.
3. NEVER install condensate lines outside. It is very important that the condensate line is not exposed to freezing temperatures or any type of
blockage. Damages due to frozen or blocked condensate lines ARE NOT covered by warranty.
4. Support of the condensate line may be necessary to avoid blockage of the condensate ow.
5. An error will appear on the appliance display if condensate line is blocked. The appliance will not operate with a blocked condensate line. It is
extremely important to have this condition repaired by a qualied service technician.
PART 6 – INSTALL THE CONDENSATE DRAIN
NOTE: If a nearby laundry tub is used as a disposal for waste water from the washing machine, draining the condensate into this tub allows the
soapy water discharge to neutralize the acidic condensate.
NOTE: This appliance has an internal condensate trap that must be cleaned and maintained. See Maintenance section of this manual for instructions
on maintaining the trap.
NOTES:

Figure 14 – Condensate Piping to Floor Drain and with Pump
CAUTION
CAUTION
CAUTION
If using a condensate pump, select one approved for use with condensing appliances and furnaces. The pump should have an overow switch to
prevent property damage from condensate spillage.
It is very important that the condensate piping be no smaller than ½". To prevent sagging and maintain pitch, condensate piping should be
supported with pipe supports, and pitched ¼" per foot to allow for proper drainage.
The condensate line must remain unobstructed, allowing free ow of condensate. If condensate freezes in the line, or if line is obstructed in any
other manner, condensate can exit from the tee, resulting in potential water damage to property.

Always install an automatic air vent on top of the air separator to remove residual air from the system.
2. The expansion tank must be located following recognized design methods. See expansion tank manufacturer’s instructions for details.
3. Connect the expansion tank to the air separator only if the air separator is on the suction side of the circulator. Always install the system ll
connection at the same point as the expansion tank connection to the system.
Use both thread tape and pipe dope to connect to the 1" heating water outlet and inlet.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Undersized expansion tanks cause system water to be lost from the relief valve, causing make-up water to be added. Eventual appliance failure
can result due to excessive make-up water addition. SUCH FAILURE IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.
Use at least the MINIMUM pipe size for all appliance loop piping (connecting appliance to and from the primary/secondary connection). DO NOT
pipe the appliance in any conguration other than primary/secondary. All piping methods shown in this manual use primary/secondary connection.
This is to avoid the possibility of inadequate ow through the appliance. Using less than the required minimum pipe size and piping in anything
other than a primary/secondary installation could result in system problems, property damage, and premature appliance failure. Such problems
ARE NOT covered by product warranty.

D. CH AND DHW PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES
An external pressure relief valve must be installed on this appliance for both the CH and DHW loops. When installing, observe the following
guidelines. Pressure relief valves must be installed as close to the appliance as possible. No other valves should be placed between the pressure
relief valve and the appliance. Failure to comply with these guidelines can result in substantial property damage, personal injury, or death.
This appliance has a high-temperature shut-off switch built in as a standard safety feature. Therefore, a “pressure only" relief valve is required. DO
NOT operate this appliance before the supplied pressure relief valve is installed with sufcient relieving capacity in accordance with the ASME rating
plate on the appliance.
CH Loop
This appliance is provided with a CH pressure relief valve that complies with the ANSI/ASME Appliance and Pressure Vessel Code, Section IV
(Heating Appliances). The included 30 psi CH Pressure Relief Valve must be installed on the CH supply line to ensure a compliant installation and
safe operation. The valve is meant to be eld installed. DO NOT install a CH pipe line relief valve with a pressure rating greater than 30 psi. This is
the maximum allowable CH relief valve setting for this appliance.
DHW Loop
This appliance must be installed with a DHW pressure relief valve that complies with local codes, but not less than valves certied as meeting the
requirements of Relief Valves for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21/CSA4.4 by a nationally recognized lab that maintains periodic inspection of
production listed equipment. A DHW pressure relief valve is not included with the appliance, and is to be eld supplied and installed. DO NOT install
a DHW relief valve with a pressure rating greater than 150 psi. This is the maximum allowable DHW relief valve setting for this appliance.
After installing the relief valves and lling and pressurizing the system, test the operation of the valves by lifting the levers. Make sure the valves
discharge freely. If a valve fails to operate correctly, replace it with a new relief valve. Ensure that the maximum BTU/H rating on the pressure relief
valve is equal to or greater than the maximum input BTU/H rating of the combination appliance.
WARNING
WARNING
To avoid water damage or scalding due to relief valve operation:
Discharge line must be connected to relief valve outlet and run to a safe place of disposal. Terminate the discharge line in a manner that will
prevent possibility of severe burns or property damage should the relief valve discharge.
Discharge line must be as short as possible and the same size as the valve discharge connection throughout its entire length.Failure to follow
these directions will result in substantial property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
• Discharge line must pitch downward from the valve and terminate at least 6" above the oor drain, making discharge clearly visible.
• The relief line cannot be in contact with any live electrical parts.
• Discharge line shall terminate plain, not threaded, with a material serviceable for temperatures of 375°F or greater.
• Do not pipe discharge to any location where freezing could occur.
No shutoff valve may be installed between the relief valve and appliance or in the discharge line. Do not plug or place any obstruction in the
discharge line.
Test the operation of the relief valve after lling and pressurizing the system by lifting the lever. Make sure the valve discharges freely. If the
valve fails to operate correctly, replace it with a new relief valve.
Test relief valve at least once annually to ensure the waterway is clear. If valve does not operate, turn the appliance “off" and call a plumber
immediately.
• Take care whenever operating relief valve to avoid scalding injury or property damage.
For appliances installed with only a pressure relief valve, the separate storage vessel must have a temperature and pressure relief valve
installed. This relief valve shall comply with Relief Valves for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22/CSA4.4.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE ABOVE GUIDELINES COULD RESULT IN FAILURE OF RELIEF VALVE OPERATION, RESULTING IN
POSSIBILITY OF SUBSTANTIAL PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.
Install wiring and electrically ground appliance in accordance with the authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such an authority, follow the
National Electrical Code, NFPA 70, and/or CSA C22.1 Electrical Code-Part 1 in Canada. Failure to follow all applicable local, state, and national
regulations, mandates, and building supply codes for guidelines to install the electrical power supply could result in property damage, serious
personal injury, or death.

▪ K. OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE MODE
NOTE: If the system requires a xed operating temperature, the outdoor sensor is not required and should not be installed.
There is no connection required if an outdoor sensor is not used in the installation.
1. Use a minimum 18 AWG wire for runs of up to 150 feet.
2. Mount the outdoor sensor on an exterior surface of the building, preferably on the north side in an area that will not be affected by direct sunlight
and will be exposed to varying weather conditions.
NOTE: For correct mounting procedures, follow instructions provided with the sensor.
NOTE: If sensor wires are located in an area with sources of potential electromagnetic interference (EMI), the sensor wires should be shielded, or
the wires routed in a grounded metal conduit. If using shielded cable, the shielding should be connected to the common ground of the appliance.
NOTE: Outdoor Temperature Mode Icon on the display will ash if an Outdoor Sensor or 0~10 Volt is not connected to the appliance.

Reversed polarity could lead to erratic and/or no response from the appliance controller.
Figure 38 – Outdoor Reset Curve – See Installer Mode for Curve Setting Descriptions
1. A signal from a building management system may be connected to the appliance to enable remote control. This signal should be a 0~10 volt
positive-going DC signal. When the 0~10V input is wired to the appliance terminal strip, a building control system can be used to control the set point
temperature of the appliance. The control interprets the 0~10 volt signal as follows; when the signal is between 0 and 1.5 volts, the appliance will be
in standby mode, not ring. When the signal rises above 1.5 volts, the appliance will ignite. As the signal continues to rise towards its maximum of 10
volts, the appliance will increase in set point temperature.
2. Connect a building management system or other auxiliary control signal to the terminals marked for this purpose on the appliance terminal block
(shown in Piping Diagrams, this manual). Caution should be used to ensure that the 0~10 VOLT + connection does not be come connected to
ground.

A. CHECK / CONTROL WATER CHEMISTRY
WARNING
CAUTION
Thoroughly clean and ush any system that has used glycol before installing the appliance.
Chemical imbalance of the water supply may affect efciency and cause severe damage to the appliance and associated equipment. Water
quality must be professionally analyzed to determine whether it is necessary to treat the water. Various solutions are available to adjust water
quality. Adverse water quality will affect the reliability of the system. In addition, operating temperatures above 135°F will accelerate the build-up
of lime scale and possibly shorten appliance service life. Failure of an appliance due to lime scale build-up, low pH, or other chemical imbalance
IS NOT covered by the warranty.
background
57
NOTE: It is recommended you clean heat exchanger at least once a year to prevent lime scale buildup. Follow the maintenance
procedure to clean the heat exchanger in this manual
NOTE: APPLIANCE FAILURE DUE TO IMPROPER WATER CHEMISTRY IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.
Clean system to remove sediment*
1. You must thoroughly ush the system (without the appliance connected) to remove sediment. The high-efciency heat exchanger can be damaged
by buildup or corrosion due to sediment.
2. For zoned systems, ush each zone separately through a purge valve. (If purge valves and isolation valves are not already installed, install them
to properly clean the system.)
3. Flush system until water runs clean and you are sure piping is free of sediment.
Glycol in hydronic applications should include inhibitors that prevent the glycol from attacking metallic system components. Make certain that the
system uid is checked for the correct glycol concentration and inhibitor level.
The glycol solution should be tested at least once a year or as recommended by the glycol manufacturer.
Anti-freeze solutions expand more than water. For example: A 50% by volume solution expands 4.8% in volume for a temperature increase from
32°F to 180°F, while water expands 3% over the same temperature rise. Allowances must be made in system design for expansion.
A 30% mixture of glycol will result in a BTU output loss of 15% with a 5% increase in head against the system circulator.
A 50% mixture of glycol will result in a BTU output loss of 30% with a 50% increase in head against the system circulator.
NOTE: BTU losses apply to both CH and DHW.
B. GLYCOL ANTIFREEZE SOLUTIONS
C. CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS
WARNING
WARNING
Use only inhibited propylene glycol solutions which are specially formulated for hydronic systems. Ethylene glycol is toxic and can
attack gaskets and seals used in hydronic systems. Glycol mixtures should not exceed 50%.
Before starting the appliance, and during initial operation, smell near the oor and around the appliance for gas odorant or any unusual
odor. Remove appliance front door and smell interior of appliance enclosure. Do not proceed with startup if there is any indication of a
gas leak. Repair any leaks at once.
PROPANE APPLIANCES ONLY – Both natural gas and propane (LP) have an odorant added to aid in detecking a gas leak. Some
people may not physically be able to smell or recognize this odorant. If you are unsure or unfamiliar with the smell of natural gas or
LP, ask the gas supplier. Other conditions, such as "odorant fade," which causes the odorant to diminish in intensity, can also hide or
camouage a gas leak.
It is highly recommended to carefully follow the glycol manufacturers recommended concentrations, expansion requirements, and
maintenance recommendations (pH additive breakdown, inhibitor reduction, etc.) You must carefully calculate the additional friction
loss in the system as well as the reduction in heat transfer coefcients.

WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING
1. This appliance does not have pilot. It is equipped with an ignition device which automatically lights the burner. Do not try to light the
burner by hand.
2. BEFORE OPERATING: smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the oor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on
the oor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
Do not try to light any appliance.
Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone in your building.
Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone. Follow the gas suppliers' instructions.
If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the re department.
Turn off gas shutoff valve (located outside of the appliance) so that the handle is crosswise to the gas pipe. If the handle will
not turn by hand, don't try to force or repair it, call a qualied service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a re or
explosion.
4. Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualied service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of
the control system and any gas control that has been damaged.
5. The applianceshall be installed so the gas ignition system components are protected from water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during appliance operation and
service (circulator replacement, condensate trap, control replacement, etc.)
Failure to follow these instructions could result in property damage, serious personal injury, or death.
If you discover any evidence of a gas leak, shut down the appliance at once. Find the leak source with a bubble test and repair immediately. Do not start the
appliance again until the leak is repaired. Failure to comply could result in substantial property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
Ensure the appliance is full of water before ring the burner. Failure to do so will damage the appliance. Such damage IS NOT covered by warranty, and could
result in property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
Eliminate all system leaks. Continual fresh make-up water will reduce appliance life. Minerals can build up in the heat exchanger, reducing heat transfer,
overheating the heat exchanger, causing heat exchanger failure and possibly resulting in property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
D. FILL AND TEST WATER SYSTEM
E. PURGE AIR FROM CH
1. Fill the system only after ensuring water chemistry meets the requirements listed in this manual.
2. Close the manual and automatic air vents and appliance drain valve.
3. Fill to the correct system pressure. Correct pressure will vary with each application.
a. Typical cold water ll pressure for a CH residential system is 12 psi.
b. Pressure will rise when appliance is turned on and system water temperature increases. Operating pressure of the CH system should never
exceed 25 psi, and must never exceed the relief valve pressure setting.
4. At initial ll and during appliance startup and testing, check system thoroughly for leaks. Repair all leaks before proceeding further.
5. The system may have residual substances that could affect water chemistry. After the system has been lled and leak tested, verify that water pH
and chlorine concentrations are acceptable by sample testing.
It is important to purge the system of air to avoid damage to the appliance
CAUTION
CAUTION
IMPORTANT! While commissioning the system, the air vent on top of the appliance must remain fully open to allow the appliance to properly ll.
Failure to keep the air vent open could lead to improper appliance and system operation.

a. Connect a hose to the purge valve and route hose to an area where water can drain and be seen.
b. Close the appliance or system isolation valve between the purge valve and ll connection to the system.
c. Close zone isolation valves.
d. Automatic water replenishment in progress when the Combi Boiler is less than the internal pressure 12psi.
e. Open purge valve.
f. Open the isolation valves one zone at a time. Allow water to run through the zone, pushing out the air. Run water until no noticeable air ow is
present. Close the zone isolation valves and proceed with the next zone. Follow this procedure until all zones are purged.
g. Close the purge valve and remove the hose. Open all isolation valves. ‘Error Code 54’ will be indicated at the beginning of auto feeding.This is
normal operation. When auto feeding is completed, ‘Error Code 54’ turns off automatically. It is recommended that you put the pumps into manual
operation to assist in purging the circuits.
h. Disconnect the wires that are connected to the THERMOSTAT terminals of the terminal block. Apply power to the appliance. After the control goes
through the start-up sequence, the display will turn off.
i. Press and hold the button for more than 5 seconds. Then scroll to 15:CK by turning the dial . Press the button. A.PP will show on the
display. Press the button to run the test pump operation. The default is Maximum 10 minutes for 60sec-on and 10sec-off. Turn the dial
counterclockwise from off to on.
j. The CH and internal circulation pumps will come on. Run pumps as required to help bleed out all entrapped air. Some good indicators that air is
removed include the absence of gurgling noises in the pipes and pump operation becoming very quiet. Test mode will stop automatically after the
Maximum time (xed value is 10 minutes), or press the button to leave it manually.
k. After the system has operated for some time, eliminate any residual air by using the manual air vents located throughout the system.
l. If purge valves are not installed in the system, open manual air vents in the system one at a time, beginning with the lowest oor. Close vent when
water squirts out. Repeat with remaining vents.
1. Make sure CH and DHW lines to the appliance are open and full of water. Turn on all electric power to appliance.
1. Disconnect the two external wires connected to the appliance thermostat terminals (low voltage terminal strip).
2. Connect a voltmeter across these two incoming wires with power supplied to the thermostat circuits. Close each thermostat, zone valve and relay
in the external circuit one at a time and check the voltmeter reading across the incoming wires.
3. There should NEVER be a voltage reading.
4. If a voltage reading does occur under any condition, check and correct the external wiring. (This is a common problem when using 3-wire zone
valves.)
5. Once the external thermostat circuit wiring is checked and corrected if necessary, reconnect the external thermostat circuit wires to the appliance
low voltage terminal strip. Allow the appliance to cycle.
2. Open hot water faucets in the DHW system. Start with the faucets nearest the appliance.
3. Keep faucets open until water runs freely and all air is purged. Then move on to faucets further away from the appliance in the system.
4. When water ows freely from all hot water faucets, DHW purging is complete.

H. CONDENSATE REMOVAL
I. FINAL CHECKS BEFORE STARTING APPLIANCE
J. ADJUSTING GAS PRESSURE AT THE APPLIANCE
1. This is a high efciency condensing appliance. Therefore, the appliance has a condensate drain. Condensate uid is nothing more than water
derived from combustion products, similar to that produced by an automobile
when it is initially started.
Condensate is slightly acidic (typically with a pH of 3 to 5) and must be piped
with the correct materials. Never pipe the condensate using steel, copper,
brass or other materials that will be subject to corrosion. Plastic PVC or CPVC
pipe are the only approved materials.
A condensate neutralizer, if required by local authorities, may be purchased
from aftermarket
2. It is very important that the minimum ½" condensate line is sloped downward
away from the appliance to a suitable inside drain. If the condensate outlet
on the appliance is lower than the drain, you must use a condensate removal
pump, available from aftermarket. This pump is equipped with two leads that
can be connected to an alarm or another type of warning device to alert the
user of a condensate overow, which, if not corrected, could cause property
damage.
3. If a long horizontal run is used, it may be necessary to create a vent in the
horizontal run to prevent a vacuum lock in the condensate line.
4. Do not expose the condensate to freezing temperatures.
5. It is very important you support the condensate line to ensure proper
drainage.
1. Verify the appliance and system are full of water and all system components are correctly set for operation.
2. Fill the condensate trap with water.
3. Verify electrical connections are correct and securely attached.
4. Inspect exhaust vent and intake piping for signs of deterioration from corrosion, physical damage, or sagging. Verify exhaust vent and intake
piping are intact and correctly installed per Venting Section (this manual) and local codes.
NOTE: Refer to Figure 39 when adjusting gas pressure. Loosen the screw before checking the gas inlet pressure.
1. The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of the system
at test pressures greater than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
2. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the
gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
ADJUSTING GAS PRESSURE AT THE APPLIANCE
1. Open the gas line and water valves.
2. Use a Phillips Head screwdriver to remove the appliance top cover. Remove the front cover.
3. Loosen the gas inlet pressure tap screw three turns with a screwdriver. Connect the manometer to the inlet gas pressure port. See Figure 39.
4. Turn on power to the appliance and open a hot water faucet.
5. The minimum and maximum inlet gas line pressures must meet the requirements shown in Table 25.

WARNING
WARNING
It is required to use a combustion analyzer to verify nal adjustment according to the combustion chart (Table 26). Failure to do so could result in serious personal
injury or death.
It is very important that gas conversion be set within the recommended CO measurements listed in Table 26. Visually looking at the burner does not determine
combustion quality. Failure to measure combustion with a Combustion Analyzer and set the throttle within the recommended CO measurements could result in
property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
If the readings obtained are lower or higher than the combustion readings in Table 26, use a 4mm Allen key to adjust the offset screw in a
clockwise (positive) or counterclockwise (negative) direction (approximately 1/4 turn). See Figure 40. Check your combustion values. Repeat this
procedure until the values obtained on the combustion analyzer agree with those stated in Table 26.
NOTE: If the appliance makes a whistling sound (harmonics) at low re, adjust the offset screw in a clockwise (positive) direction (approximately
1/8 turn). Check your combustion values and ensure they agree with those stated in Table 26 before proceeding.
