19 Balancing valve
20 Make-up water supply
21 Primary/secondary connection (tees no more than 12 inches apart)
24 Strap system supply and return sensors to lines as shown, at least 6 pipe
diameters (but no more than 3 feet) from boiler connection tees.
25 Systems using high-head pumps may require a bypass pressure regulator
to prevent damage to control valves.
Items supplied with boiler

NOTE 1:
Use at least the following pipe sizes on all boiler
loop piping (connecting boiler to and from the
primary/secondary connection, item 21). Use only primary/secondary piping
as shown. Failure to follow these guidelines could result in system problems.

Chilled water systems
Install boiler so that chilled medium is piped in parallel with the 1.
heating boiler. Use appropriate valves to prevent chilled medium
from entering boiler. See Figure 19 for typical installation of bal-
ancing valve and check valve.
The space heating system may be zoned with circulators if a separate 2.
circulator is supplied for the chilled water loop.
If antifreeze is used in the system, consider the effects of
antifreeze on circulator sizing and DHW performance.
Some local codes may require double-wall DHW heat
exchanger design.
Chilled medium, if used, is piped in parallel with heating
boiler as shown in Figure 19. Use appropriate valves to
prevent chilled medium from entering boiler.
If boiler is connected to heating coils located in air han-
dling units where they can be exposed to refrigerated
air, use ow control valves or other automatic means to
prevent gravity circulation during cooling cycle.
By default, the U-Control Module turns off space heating
during DHW heating (if DHW input is priority 1). The
boiler circulator will turn off, preventing hot water from
circulating to the system (optional timeout setting can
be used to override). The ow/check valve shown on the
boiler outlet piping prevents gravity circulation in the
boiler loop during DHW heating.
Controlling the circulators3.
The U-Control can control up to three circulators (boiler cir-a.
culator and two others). Refer to Field wiring, beginning on
page 54, for instructions on wiring to circulators.
The factory default settings are: DHW circulator as Circula-b.
tor 1, boiler circulator as Circulator 2. See Field wiring instruc-
tions, beginning on page 54, for details.
