3.1 Diesel Switch
Function: The Diesel switch activates the indicator light on the switch and
the Hydro-Hot's Diesel-Burner, reference Figure 4. This procedure allows
the Diesel-Burner to operate and supply heat to the Hydro-Hot's Boiler
Tank. The Diesel-Burner will heat the Hydro-Hot System to maximum
operating
temperature
(190F {+/- 5 deg.}) in approximately 10-20 min-
utes. Please note that the Diesel-Burner is the Hydro-Hot's primary heat
source for heating both the interior and/or the domestic hot water (such
as when cool ambient temperatures exist and/or when there is a high
demand
for domestic hot water).
3.2 Electric Switch
Function: The Electric switch activates the indicator light on the switch
and the Hydro-Hot's 120 VAC Electric Heating Element, reference Figure
4.
This procedure allows the 120 VAC Electric Heating Element to supply
heat to the Hydro-Hot's Boiler Tank. The 120 VAC Electric Heating
Elemen
t will heat the Hydro-Hot System to maixmum operating tempera-
ture
(190F {+/- 5 deg.}) in approximately 1-2 hours. Please note the 120
VAC Electric Heating Element is the Hydro-Hot's secondary heat source
for
heating both the interior and/or the domestic hot water during low
heating demand situations (such as when moderate ambient tempera-
tures exist and/or when there is a low demand for domestic hot water).
This
feature is only operational whenever the motorhome is connected to
VAC power or when the generator is operating.
3.3 Engine Preheat Switch
Function: The Engine Preheat switch activates the indicator light on the
switch
and the Hydro-Hot's Engine Preheat Circulation Pump, reference
Figure
4. This procedure allows the Engine Preheat Circulation Pump to
circulate the engine's coolant through a separate double wall copper loop
in the Hydro-Hot's Boiler Tank, resulting in a warm engine for easy start-
ups on cool mornings. Please note that this feature will be effective only if
the Engine Preheat switch is ON in conjunction with either the Diesel and/
or Electric switch. This feature is available on HHE-200 Model Hydro-
Hot's
, ONLY.
