OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 375-LP I.D. Label The Aqua-Hot’s Exhaust is HOT! DO NOT park in areas where dry conditions exist underneath the vehicle as a fire may result (i.e., in a dry, grassy field)! DO NOT operate the Aqua-Hot’s Propane-Burner inside an enclosed building! The Heater must be switched OFF when refueling. DO NOT operate the Propane-Burner and/or Electric Heating Element without the antifreeze and water heating solution in the Aqua-Hot’s Boiler Tank.
PAGE 8
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Zone Thermostat Operation Interior Room Thermostat: Simply adjust each Interior Room Thermostat to the desired temperature. Then, whenever an Interior Room Thermostat “calls for heat,” the Aqua-Hot’s Circulation Pump and Interior Heat Exchanger Fans will be activated. These devices, together, will supply warmth and comfort to each interior heating zone. The Aqua-Hot must be at operating temperature in order for the zones to function.

MAINTENANCE WHEN THE AQUA-HOT IS AT MAXIMUM OPERATING TEMPERATURE, THE COOLANT WILL BE VERY HOT! IF THE AQUA-HOT’S HEATING SYSTEM IS ACCESSED, SCALDING BY HOT VAPOR OR COOLANT COULD RESULT! BEFORE CLEANING OR SERVICING, DISCONNECT ALL POWER SUPPLIES! DO NOT operate the Propane-Burner and/or the Electric Heating Element without the antifreeze and water heating solution in the Aqua-Hot’s Boiler Tank; doing so will cause serious damage to the Heater.
PAGE 11
WINTERIZATION Not winterizing the Aqua-Hot when freezing temperatures are present will result in serious damage to the Aqua-Hot’s Domestic Water Heating System. Also, be sure to use an FDA approved, “GRAS” rated antifreeze for winterization. NOTE: The Aqua-Hot can continue to be used for interior zone heating once the domestic water heating system has been drained and winterized.
PAGE 12
TROUBLESHOOTING Should the Aqua-Hot Hydronic Heating System fail to operate, complete the following checks: 1) Verify that the Aqua-Hot’s access cover is securely installed. The Aqua-Hot Hydronic Heating System will not operate if the access cover is not fully installed. 2) Ensure that the main propane tank contains a sufficient level of propane. 3) Ensure that the Aqua-Hot’s boiler tank has an adequate supply of antifreeze and water heating solution by checking the level at the expansion tank.

APPENDIX C: ANTIFREEZE TERMS AND MIXTURE RATIO The following information addresses the process of selecting an antifreeze and water mixture ratio that provides adequate Freeze, Boiling, and Rust/Anti-Corrosive protection. A 50/50 mixture ratio is recommended, which will result in a freeze point of approximately -28ºF and a boil point of approximately 222ºF. The following information should be utilized for the purpose of clarifying some terms commonly associated with antifreeze.
