I. General Installation Requirements  
d. Exterior wall surface must be at to ensure that wall  
ange can be mounted without being distorted and  
also provide a positive weather-tight seal to prevent  
water damage.  
1
INSPECT SHIPMENT carefully for any signs of  
damage. All equipment is carefully manufactured,  
inspected and packed. Our responsibility ceases upon  
delivery of Boiler to the carrier in good condition. Any  
claims for damage or shortage in shipment must be led  
immediately against the carrier by the consignee. No  
claims for variances or shortages will be allowed by  
Boiler Manufacturer, unless presented within sixty (60)  
days after receipt of equipment.  
If exterior wall surface is not at (i.e., uneven  
masonry, stucco, aluminum siding, etc.) a at  
surface must be provided of equal size or larger than  
the exterior wall ange and vent terminal cover.  
e. Locate the vent terminal in relation to adjacent  
public walkways, adjacent buildings, operable  
windows and buildings, consistent with the National  
Fuel Gas Code Z223.1: Minimum clearance of  
4 feet horizontally from and in no case above or  
below (unless four [4] foot horizontal distance is  
maintained), electric meters, gas meters, regulators  
and relay equipment. At least 12” from any door,  
window or other building opening. A minimum of  
12” above grade, 7” from any overhang, 18” from  
any side obstruction or wall and 3’ away from any  
adjacent building. Increase minimum height above  
grade to maintain adequate clearance above average  
snow fall for geographical area in which unit is  
installed. If the unit is to be vented over a public  
walkway, it must be at least 7” above grade. If the  
vent terminal is to be within 10’ of a building fresh  
air intake, it must be at least 3’ above the opening.  
In addition, avoid venting the unit in corners,  
niches or areas which might have reduced fresh air  
circulation. (See Figure 2).  
2
BOILER INSTALLATION must conform to the  
requirements of the authority having jurisdiction, or in  
absence of such requirements to:  
a. “National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 obtainable  
from the American Gas Association, 1515 Wilson  
Blvd. Arlington (Rosslyn), VA 22209.  
b. When required by the authority having jurisdiction,  
the installation must conform to American Society  
of Mechanical Engineers Safety Code for Controls  
and Safety Devices for Automatically Fired boilers,  
No. CSD-1.  
c. The boiler must be electrically grounded in  
accordance with requirements of the authority  
having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such  
requirements, with the National Electrical Code,  
ANSI/NFPA No. 70.

THESE GAS BOILERS ARE DESIGN  
CERTIFIED FOR INSTALLATION on an exterior  
wall of buildings constructed with combustible  
materials (wood framed walls with, paneling, drywall,  
plaster, etc.) or masonry walls (brick, stone, stucco, or  
cinder block).  
4
5
DO NOT INSTALL ON CARPETING. These gas  
boilers may be installed above carpeted areas. Note:  
Protect carpeting or ooring to avoid possible damage  
during installation and maintenance procedures.  
BOILER LOCATION MUST MEET THE  
FOLLOWING SITE REQUIREMENTS:  
a. The boiler must be mounted on a at wall,  
sufciently strong enough to carry the weight of  
the unit. (See Figure 1). Minimum acceptable wall  
construction would consist of 2” x 4” studding on  
24” centers. Unit is designed for installation on  
16” centers. Therefore, adequate supports must be  
added between existing studding.  
b. A suggested mounting height, where practical, is  
ve feet - six inches from oor to center line of  
intake air duct opening. (See Figure 1).  
Figure 2  
NOTE: depending on ceiling height, 6” combustible  
clearance height from jacket top panel to ceiling  
must be maintained. (See Figure 3).  
f. If boiler is to be installed above the level of the  
radiation, a low water cutoff must be installed.  
6
PROVIDE CLEARANCE between boiler jacket,  
mounting bracket and vent system and combustible  
material in accordance with local re ordinance.  
c. Consider location of heating supply and return lines,  
gas supply line, cold water piping and expansion  
tank in selecting boiler location.  
4
a. Combustion air is provided 100% from the  
outdoors. Air is pulled in on all four sides of vent  
terminal cover, through the air intake duct and to  
the combustion area enclosure. The vent terminal  
must be mounted on a at surface which is ush or  
protrudes outward from the exterior wall. Avoid  
recesses, niches or areas which might have reduced  
fresh air circulation.  
b. Ventilation — When the boiler is installed in  
an unconned space in a building of normal or  
unusually tight construction, there is no additional  
provision required to insure adequate air for  
ventilation of the jacket or control compartment.  
When the boiler is installed in a conned space,  
two openings in a wall or door to an adjoining  
interior area which has adequate air supply shall be  
provided. One opening should be near the oor and  
the other near the ceiling. Each shall have a free  
area of not less than one (1) square inch for each  
thousand (1000) BTU input to all appliances in the  
boiler room. (See Figure 3).  
8
CONNECT GAS SERVICE from meter to gas  
control assembly in accordance with local piping codes  
and requirements of gas company, see Figure 1. They  
may require piping of larger size than 1/2” control  
assembly connection, especially if run from meter is  
long or includes several elbows.  
Figure 3  
** A minimum of 24” from left side and front jacket  
panel is recommended for servicing.  
MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES  
This piping is to be supplied by the installer and must  
include a trap, a ground joint union and a manual shut-  
off valve upstream of the gas control assembly outside  
of the jacket when codes require, see Figure 1. A pipe  
thread compound resistant to the action of liqueed  
petroleum gases should be applied to all threaded joints  
in the gas piping. Pressure testing of the gas supply  
piping, boiler and its connections is required before  
placing the boiler in operation.  
Minimum listed clearances from combustible materials  
for non-closet installation or closet installation. (See  
Figure 3).  
Top — 6”  
Rear — 0”  
*Front — 2”  
Floor — 6”  
*Left Side —1”  
Right Side — 1”  
Flue — 0”  
Since the above dimensions are measured between  
boiler jacket and combustible walls or ceiling, practical  
service clearances for all external adjoining equipment  
must be considered (see Figure 1). * A minimum of 24”  
from left side and front jacket panel is recommended for  
servicing.  
In utility room installations, the door must be wide  
enough to allow boiler to enter or to permit replacement  
of another appliance in this room.  
The boiler must be isolated from the gas supply piping  
system by closing the manual shut-off during any  
pressure testing at pressures equal to or less than 1/2  
psig.  
The boiler and shut-off valve must be disconnected  
from the gas supply piping system during any pressure  
testing at pressures greater than 1/2 psig.  
RECOMMENDED SIZING OF GAS SUPPLY  
PIPING TO BOILER shall be such as to provide the  
required supply of gas without undue loss of pressure  
between meter and the boiler. Gas supply piping should  
be sized in accordance with Tables, I, II and III.  
7
VENTILATION AND COMBUSTION AIR.  
Provide provisions for combustion and ventilation air  
in accordance with Section 5.3, Air for combustion  
and ventilation, of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI  
Z223.1 or applicable provisions of local building codes.  
This boiler is equipped with a fan which produces  
an induced draft through the unit. Combustion air is  
pulled in from outdoors and the ue gases are exhausted  
to the outdoors through the intake air/vent system. (See  
Figure 4).  
The following shall be taken into account:  
a. Allowable loss of pressure to assure a burner  
manifold pressure of 3½” water.  
b. Supply of gas to be provided in cubic feet.  
c. Length of piping and number of ttings.  
d. Specic gravity of gas.  
e. Correction factor for specic gravity.

carton.  
a. Separate two halves of telescoping intake air duct.  
Interior half of duct has a 1” wide rectangular gasket  
ange with four (4) weld studs for attaching to  
back plate of boiler. Exterior half of duct has the  
9” square stainless steel wall ange for securing to  
exterior wall. (See Figure 5)  
b. Hold wall bracket in desired location. On studded  
walls, mounting bracket must be secured directly to  
main vertical support studs. Interior wall coverings  
such as paneling, plaster and drywall are not suitable  
to support the unit’s weight. Place a 24” level  
across top corners, adjust wall bracket until level.  
Using the wall bracket as a template, mark the eight  
(8) securing holes along the sides and the 4½” x  
5¼” rectangular opening at the top. Remove wall  
bracket from wall.  
NOTE: 1. Standard telescoping intake air duct,  
part No. 6110301, is for wall thickness  
from 5” to 9”.  
NOTE: 2. Optional telescoping intake air duct, part  
No. 6110302, is for wall thickness from  
9” to 15”.  
NOTE: The boiler mounting wall bracket is

area and the second one is located in the lower  
right corner under the gas burner.  
d. Before cutting rectangular opening on interior wall,  
use a straight edge to draw an “X” inside the box  
using the four (4) corners. Drill a hole in the center  
of the “X” straight through the wall to the outside.  
On the exterior wall draw a 4½” x 5¼” rectangular  
box centered around the reference hole which  
matches the rectangular box on the interior wall.  
5. Remove boiler from skid and set unit upright on  
oor in front of installation site.  
e. Cut along outside edge of lines on interior and  
exterior surfaces of the wall and remove all  
NOTE: On the back plate of the boiler is a “Z”  
bracket approximately 10” long. When  
the boiler is lifted into place, this bracket  
must be lowered into the ½” wide x 11”  
long slot at the top of the boiler mounting  
wall bracket. (See Figures 4 and 5)  
material within the rectangular box. Check the wall  
penetration by inserting one-half of the telescoping  
intake air duct through the opening. Remove any  
jagged edges or webbing that prevents the duct from  
penetrating through the wall or from being level.  
Remove duct from wall penetration.  
e. Attach upper RS jacket mounting bracket to the  
upper corner of back plate. Loosen the two (2)  
corner screws, position bracket with ange facing  
forward and engage slots over screws. Re-tighten  
screws to secure bracket. IMPORTANT: Bracket  
must be installed before lifting boiler into position.  
f. Lay the wall bracket face down. Apply a ¼” thick  
bead of silicone rubber type caulking around the  
rectangular opening approximately 1” from the  
edge.  
g. Reposition boiler mounting wall bracket on wall,  
using a 24” level across top corners, level wall  
bracket and secure to wall with suitable fasteners.  
f. Lift boiler up into position. Make sure that “Z”  
bracket is properly engaged into slot and is resting  
on ¼” wide ange in front of slot before releasing  
the weight of the boiler.  
h. Attach lower R.S. jacket mounting bracket to right  
side of boiler mounting wall bracket with sheet  
metal screws provided. (See Figure 5)  
g. Move boiler slightly to the left or right to align the  
ve (5) clearance holes in the back plate with the  
fasteners on boiler mounting wall bracket.  
7
h. Secure boiler to boiler mounting wall bracket with  
ve (5) ¼”-20 x ¾” long machine screws and  
washers provided.  
NOTE: Tools required — 7/16” socket, extension  
bar(s) and drive ratchet  
i. Secure interior telescoping intake air duct to  
back plate of boiler. Pull duct forward until duct  
and weld studs are engaged through 4½” x 5½”  
rectangular opening and holes in back plate. Make  
sure gasket is in place and at against back plate.  
Attach duct with four (4) ¼”-20 brass hex nuts,  
lockwashers and at washers.

b. Drill four (4) pilot holes, properly sized for the  
non-corrosive fasteners (stainless steel, brass or  
aluminum) to be used to secure the wall ange to  
wall.  
6
CONNECT SUPPLY AND RETURN PIPING TO  
heating system.  
OXYGEN CORROSION:  
Oxygen contamination of the boiler water will cause  
corrosion of the iron and steel boiler components,  
which can lead to failure. As such, any system must  
be designed to prevent oxygen absorption in the rst  
place or prevent it from reaching the boiler. Problems  
caused by oxygen contamination of boiler water are not  
covered by Burnham’s standard warranty.  
c. Attach four (4) ½” long threaded aluminum spacers  
to the outer anges of the exterior telescoping  
intake air duct wall ange with four (4) #10-32 x  
¼” long stainless steel machine screws provided.  
(See Figure 5).  
d. Apply a ¼” thick continuous bead of silicone rubber  
type caulking to the rear of the exterior telescoping  
intake air duct wall ange approximately 1” from  
duct.  
There are many possible causes of oxygen  
contamination such as:  
1. Addition of excessive make-up water as a result of  
system leaks.  
e. Re-install exterior telescoping intake air duct and  
secure to wall.  
2. Absorption through open tanks and ttings.  
NOTE: Non-corrosive (stainless steel, brass or  
aluminum) fasteners must be used.  
3. Oxygen permeable materials in the distribution  
system.  
f. Apply a bead of silicone rubber caulking to  
perimeter of wall ange, where the wall and ange  
join. Use a tool or your nger and apply pressure  
while smoothing caulking to provide a weather-tight  
seal.  
In order to insure long product life, oxygen sources  
should be eliminated. This can be accomplished by  
taking the following measures:  
1. Repairing system leaks to eliminate the need for  
addition of make-up water.  
4
INSTALLING VENT TUBE, ORIFICE PLATE  
AND VENT TERMINAL COVER (See Figures 4  
and 5).  
2. Eliminating open tanks from the system.  
3. Eliminating and/or repairing ttings which allow  
oxygen absorption.  
a. The vent tube furnished has a standard length of  
24”. This length is suitable for a wall thickness  
from 5” to 15”.  
4. Use of non-permeable materials in the distribution  
system.  
5. Isolating the boiler from the system water by  
installing a heat exchanger.  
b. To determine the proper length required, place a 24”  
level horizontally across the exterior wall ange,  
just below the aluminum spacers, measure the  
distance between the outlet ange on the fan and  
the level. Add 1” to this measurement for the total  
length of the vent tube.  
a. For heating only, see Figure 6. Consult I=B=R  
Installation Guides. Clearance between hot  
water pipes and combustible material must not  
be less than ½”.  
b. If this boiler is used in connection with  
refrigeration systems, the boiler must be installed  
so that the chilled medium is piped parallel  
with the heating boiler using appropriate valves  
to prevent the chilled medium from entering  
the boiler, see Figure 7. Also consult I=B=R  
Installation and Piping Guides. If this boiler  
is connected to heating coils located in air  
handling units where they may be exposed  
to refrigerated air, the boiler piping must be  
equipped with ow control valves to prevent  
gravity circulation of boiler water during the  
operation of the cooling system.  
c. Measuring from the ange end of the vent tube,  
mark the total length required. Cut off and discard  
the remaining piece.  
d. IMPORTANT! Before connecting vent tube to fan,  
install the orice plate and two (2) cerabre gaskets  
on the fan outlet ange weld studs in the proper  
order of assembly, gasket rst, orice plate second  
and remaining gasket last. (See Figures 4 and 5).  
e. Insert the vent tube, ange rst, through the intake  
air duct and secure to fan outlet ange with four (4)  
¼” at washers, ¼” lock washers and ¼”-20 brass  
hex nuts provided.  
f. Position vent terminal cover over exterior intake air  
duct. Insert end of vent tube into collar on rear of  
vent terminal cover. Align four (4) holes on cover  
with ½” long threaded aluminum spacers. Secure  
vent terminal cover with four (4) #10-32 x ¼” long  
stainless steel machine screws provided.  
c. Pipe safety relief valve to suitable drain.  
CAUTION: Safety relief valve should be piped  
to an open drain — full size of discharge outlet on  
relief valve without any provision of “shut-off”  
between the relief valve and discharge into drain.  
d. Install diaphragm type expansion tank (not  
furnished) in system piping.  
5
DO NOT REPLACE ENCLOSURE COVER until  
boiler piping is completed and system is lled, vented  
and checked for water leaks.  
9
e. A hot water boiler installed above radiation level  
must be provided with a low water cutoff device  
as part of the installation.  
If it is required to perform a long term pressure  
test of the hydronic system, the boiler should rst  
be isolated to avoid a pressure loss due to the  
escape of air trapped in the boiler.  
To perform a long term pressure test including  
the boiler, ALL trapped air must rst be removed  
from the boiler.  
A loss of pressure during such a test, with no  
visible water leakage, is an indication that the  
boiler contained trapped air.  
If a low water cut-off is required, it must be  
mounted in the system piping above the boiler.  
The minimum safe water level of a hot water  
boiler is just above the highest water containing  
cavity of the boiler; that is, a hot water boiler  
must be full of water to operate safely.  
f. Use a boiler bypass if the boiler is to be  
operated in a system which has a large volume  
or excessive radiation where low boiler water  
temperature may be encountered (i.e., converted  
gravity circulation system, etc.). The bypass  
should be the same size as the supply and return  
lines with valves located in the by-pass and  
supply outlet as illustrated in order to regulate  
water ow for maintenance of higher boiler  
water temperatures. See Figure 6.  
7
INSTALL BOILER FLUSH JACKET (See Figure  
9).  
a. Open jacket carton and locate side panels. Note that  
jacket left side panel is not insulated and right side  
panel is insulated.  
b. Position the rear ange on jacket left side panel  
behind the boiler back plate. Position ange support  
notches over jacket support hooks on back panel  
and engage jacket on both support hooks to keep the  
panel from moving front to rear.  
Set the by-pass and boiler supply valves to a  
half throttle position to start. Operate boiler  
until the system water temperature is at a normal  
operating range.  
c. Position rear ange on jacket right side panel behind  
upper and lower jacket support brackets. Engage  
jacket with jacket support hooks in similar manner  
as left side panel to provide proper positioning and  
support.  
Adjust the valves to provide 180° to 200°F  
supply water temperature. Opening the boiler  
supply valve will raise the system temperature,  
while opening the by-pass valve will lower the  
system supply temperature.  
d. Take jacket top and bottom panel from carton. Top  
panel can be identied by the front channel used to

Keep large furniture away from thermostat so there will  
be free movement of room air around this control.  
Heat anticipator in thermostat should be set at .4.  
e. Lift jacket bottom panel up to bottom of side panels  
with front channel forward and ventilation louvers  
to the left. Secure bottom panel with four (4) #8 x  
½” long sheet metal screws provided.

ELECTRIC WIRING INSTALLATION.  
See Figures 11 and 12 for applicable wiring  
diagram. A separate electrical circuit must be run  
from the main electrical service with an over-current  
device/disconnect in the circuit. A service switch is  
recommended and may be required by some local  
jurisdictions. The circuit should be run to the junction  
box mounted on the front of the boiler back plate in the  
control compartment (See Figure 1), and connected to  
the proper leads therein. Wires from the low voltage  
thermostat should be run to terminals R and G on  
the transformer. Install wiring and ground boiler in  
accordance with requirements of authority having  
jurisdiction, or in absence of such requirements the  
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.  
f. Install jacket removable door. Hold door parallel  
with top of door slightly above at top panel. Insert  
door between side panels. Lower door engaging  
top panel reverse bend and lower panel ange in  
the mating door anges. Door is now locked into  
position.  
g. Reverse procedure to remove door.

2. Loosen or remove inlet pressure tap plug in  
combination gas valve and when purging is  
complete, tighten or replace plug.  
a. FILL ENTIRE HEATING SYSTEM WITH  
WATER and vent air from system. Vent air from  
all heat distributing units and all high points in the  
piping of the system. When venting air from system  
keep ll valve in open position to maintain water  
pressure. Make certain pressure reducing valve is  
installed between the ll valve and the boiler. (See  
Figure 7)  
3. Check pipe and ttings from meter to  
combination gas valve using soap solution or

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION  
Should a loss of ame occur, the main valve closes  
and the spark reoccurs within 0.8 second. The  
ignition module has an internal 100% lockout  
function to completely shutdown the system should  
the pilot gas fail to ignite with approx. 90 seconds.  
Five to six minutes after shutdown, the Ignition  
Module restarts the ignition sequence. The ignition  
trial, shutdown, and wait sequence continues until  
either the pilot lights or the Thermostat is set below  
room temperature (to end the call for heat). The  
ignition sequence can be reset by setting down the  
Thermostat for one minute.  
1. When the thermostat calls for heat, relay coil (1M)  
is energized closing two sets of NO contacts. One  
set (1M2) energizes the 24 volt limit circuit and the  
other set (1M1) completes the 120 volt circulator  
circuit.  
2. With the thermal cutout switch (on the burner  
access panel), the high limit switch, and the suction  
pressure switch in their normally closed positions,  
the fan relay coil (2M) is energized closing two sets  
of NO contacts. One set (2M1) completes the 120  
volt fan circuit and the other set (2M2) energizes the  
24V suction pressure “check” circuit.  
8. Burners, circulator and fan will continue to operate  
until the thermostat is satised.  
3. With the fan operating, the suction pressure switch  
closes its NO contacts. The “check” circuit contacts  
(2M2) keep power on the fan relay (2M) during the  
heating cycle.  
9. If the high limit setting is reached before the  
thermostat is satised, the switch in the high limit  
will open to de-energize the ignition module and  
fan relay coil (2M), causing the gas valves to close  
and the fan to stop. (The circulator will continue  
to operate as long as the thermostat is calling for  
heat). When the boiler water temperature drops to  
a point where the high limit switch closes, the fan  
will restart (via 2M) and the ignition module will be  
energized to repeat the sequence in Steps 4 through  
7 above.  
4. When the suction pressure switch proves fan  
operation the ignition module is energized,  
beginning a 30-50 second prepurge. During  
prepurge the module performs a safe-start check  
that tests the internal components of the module for  
a ame simulating condition. If a ame simulating  
condition is present in the module, the heating  
system will not start.  
10.If for any reason (such as ame roll out into the  
vestibule) the thermal cutoff switch located on the  
burner access panel is subjected to temperatures  
above its setting the TCO switch will open to  
de-energize the ignition module and fan relay coil  
(2M), causing the gas valves to close and the fan to  
stop. (The circulator will continue to operate as long  
as the thermostat is calling for heat). Since the TCO  
switch is a one-time fusible link, the reason for over-  
heating must be determined and the switch replaced  
in order for the boiler to function again.  
5. After prepurge, the module energizes the pilot gas  
valve operator. The pilot gas valve opens, allowing  
gas to ow to the pilot burner. At the same time, the  
electronic spark generator in the module generates a  
spark at the ignitor-sensor to light the pilot.  
6. If the pilot does not light within 90 seconds, or the  
pilot ame current is not at least 1.0 milliamps and  
steady, the module will not energize the main gas  
valve and the main burner will not light. Then the  
module goes into safety lockout, de-energizing the  
pilot gas valve operator causing the pilot gas valve  
to close. Five to six minutes after shutdown, the  
Ignition Module restarts the ignition sequence.  
11. In the event the fan is inoperative or fails to provide  
sufcient air ow, the suction pressure switch  
connected at the inlet of the fan will not activate, the  
NO contacts will not close, the ignition module will  
not be energized, and hence the gas valves cannot be  
opened.  
7. When the sensor senses pilot ame during the 90  
second trial for ignition the module will shut off the  
spark generator, reset the safety lockout timer, and  
energize the main gas valve operator. The main gas  
valve opens allowing gas to ow to the main burners  
where it is ignited by the pilot burner. Since the  
main gas valve is a step-opening valve, a limited  
amount of gas will be admitted to main burners  
for ignition (low re). After a short time interval,  
the regulator on the gas valve will permit full ow  
through the main gas valve (high re).  
12.If the contacts in the suction pressure switch were  
to weld together during the heating cycle (COM to  
NO), the ignition module could not be energized  
on the next call for heat due to the fact the fan relay  
coil (2M) could not be energized through either the  
suction pressure switch or the now open “check  
circuit” contacts.

PROCEDURE FOR MEASURING FAN  
DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE (See Figure 13).  
For minor input changes readjust pressure regulator  
on combination gas control. Increase or decrease  
manifold pressure to obtain corresponding increase  
or decrease in gas input.  
a. With boiler off, remove black silicone tubing from  
low side of pressure switch.  
b. With tee and ¼” aluminum stubs, connect  
manometer as shown with additional tubing.  
Turning regulator adjusting screw clockwise  
increases pressure. Counterclockwise rotation  
decreases pressure. If it is necessary to increase  
manifold pressure more than 0.3” of water to obtain  
rated input, remove orices and drill one size larger.  
Reinstall and recheck input rate.  
c. Start boiler and read differential pressure on  
manometer. Should be -0.6” wc or greater (example  
-0.7” wc).  
d. Stop boiler, remove manometer and reconnect black  
silicone tubing to duct.  
5
CHECK GAS INPUT RATE TO BOILER  
a. Input rate and maximum inlet pressure shown on  
rating label must not be exceeded. Inlet pressure  
must not be lower than minimum inlet pressure  
shown on rating label.  
b. All rate checks and all adjustments are to be made  
while boiler is ring - all other appliances connected  
to the same meter as the boiler must be off.  
c. Water manometer or water column gauge should  
be connected to a shutoff valve installed in the  
1/8” pipe tapping in the gas valve - boiler off. By  
installing gas valve up stream of manometer, gas  
pressure can be introduced gradually - without  
shutoff valve, surge of pressure when boiler is  
turned on, could blow liquid out of manometer.  
Replace plug in gas valve when rate check is  
nished.

of malfunction and repair.  
CHECK HIGH LIMIT CONTROL. Allow boiler to  
operate until burners are shut down by limit control  
(approximately 235°F). If burners are not shut down by  
limit control, determine cause of malfunction. Replace  
control if necessary and check its operation.

VI. Low Water Cut Off (LWCO)  
WARNING  
DO NOT ATTEMPT to cut factory wires to install an aftermarket Low Water Cut Off (LWCO).  
Only use connections specifically identified for Low Water Cut Off.  
In all cases, follow the Low Water Cut Off (LWCO) manufacturer's instructions.  
draining the heating system. Many probe LWCO  
manufacturers recommend an annual inspection of the  
probe.  
When  
A low water cutoff is required to protect a hot water  
boiler when any connected heat distributor (radiation)  
is installed below the top of the hot water boiler (i.e.  
baseboard on the same oor level as the boiler). In  
addition, some jurisdictions require the use of a LWCO  
with a hot water boiler.  
How to Wire  
LWCO’s are available in either 120 VAC or 24 VAC  
congurations. The 120 VAC conguration can be  
universally applied to both gas and oil boilers by wiring  
it in the line voltage service to the boiler (after the  
service switch, if so equipped).  
The presence of water in a properly installed LWCO  
will cause the normally open contact of the LWCO to  
close, thus providing continuity of the 120 VAC service  
to the boiler.  
Where  
The universal location for a LWCO on both gas and oil  
hot water boilers is above the boiler, in either the supply  
or return piping. The minimum safe water level of a  
water boiler is at the uppermost top of the boiler; that is,  
it must be full of water to operate safely.  
It is recommended to supply power to the probe LWCO  
with the same line voltage boiler service as shown  
below.  
What Kind  
Typically, in residential applications, a probe type  
LWCO is used instead of a oat type, due to their  
relative costs and the simplicity of piping for a probe  
LWCO.  
How to Pipe  
A “tee” is commonly used to connect the probe LWCO  
to the supply or return piping, as shown below.  
Wiring of Typical LWCO  
A 24 VAC LWCO is used primarily for gas red  
boilers where a 24 volt control circuit exists within the  
boiler. However, a 24 VAC LWCO can only be used  
if the boiler manufacturer has provided piping and  
wiring connections and instructions to allow for this  
application.  
LWCO Location  
Select the appropriate size tee using the LWCO  
manufacturer’s instructions. Often, the branch  
connection must have a minimum diameter to  
prevent bridging between the probe and the tee. Also,  
the run of the tee must have a minimum diameter to  
prevent the end of the probe from touching or being  
located too close to the inside wall of the run of the tee.  
How to Test  
Shut off fuel supply. Lower water level until water  
level is BELOW the LWCO. Generate a boiler demand  
by turning up thermostat. Boiler should not attempt to  
operate. Increase the water level by lling the system.  
The boiler should attempt to operate once the water  
level is above the LWCO.  
Ideally, manual shutoff valves should be located  
above the LWCO and the boiler to allow for servicing.  
This will allow probe removal for inspection without

PROCEDURE FOR OBTAINING WARRANTY SERVICE  
In order to assure prompt warranty service, the owner is requested to  
complete and mail the attached Warranty Card within ten days after the  
installation of the boiler, although failure to comply with this request will  
not void the owner’s rights under these warranties.  
NOTE: If the heat exchanger model involved is no longer available due to  
product obsolescence or redesign, the value used to establish the retail  
price will be the published price as shown in the Burnham Hydronics  
Repair Parts Price Sheet where the heat exchanger last appeared or the  
current retail price of the then nearest equivalent heat exchanger.  
Upon discovery of a condition believed to be related to a defect in  
material or workmanship covered by these warranties, the owner should  
notify the installer, who will in turn notify the distributor. If this action is  
not possible or does not produce a prompt response, the owner should  
write to U.S. Boiler Co., Inc., Burnham Hydronics, at P.O. Box 3079,  
Lancaster, PA 17604, giving full particulars in support of the claim.

addition, the owner agrees to make all reasonable efforts to settle any

one year limited warranty on residential grade water boilers, all boiler  
components manufactured by others but furnished by U.S. Boiler Co.,  
Inc. (such as oil burner, circulator and controls) will be subject only to the

THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS AND YOU  
MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO

or relating to improper installation.
