7.3 Safety Relief Valve / Temperature Pressure Gauge
 WARNING
Burn and scald hazard.  Safety relief valve could       
discharge steam or hot water during operation.       
Install discharge piping per these instructions.
!
     
Installation of (supplied) safety relief valve shall conform to 
ANSI/ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section IV.  
• Install furnished safety relief valve using 3/4” pipe 
fittings provided with boiler. See Figure 2.
• Install safety relief valve with spindle in vertical 
position.
• Do not install shutoff valve between boiler and safety 
relief valve.
• Install discharge piping from safety relief valve.  See 
Figure 2.
• Use ¾” or larger pipe.
• Use pipe suitable for temperatures of 375°F (191°C) or 
greater.
• Individual boiler discharge piping shall be independent 
of other discharge piping.
• Size and arrange discharge piping to avoid reducing 
safety relief valve relieving capacity below minimum 
relief valve capacity stated on rating plate.
• Run pipe as short and straight as possible to location 
protecting user from scalding.
• Install union, if used, close to safety relief valve outlet.
• Install elbow(s), if used, close to safety relief valve 
outlet and downstream of union (if used).
• Terminate pipe with plain end (not threaded).
7.4 Expansion Tank & Make-up Water
• Determine required system fill pressure, system design 
temperature, and system water content. 
• Boiler contains 2.6 gallons (US). Size expansion tank 
accordingly. 
• Consult expansion tank manufacturer for proper sizing 
information. Connect properly sized expansion tank 
(not furnished) as shown in
 
Figure 3 for diaphragm 
type expansion tank. 
• Adjust tank air pressure on diaphragm type expansion 
tanks to match system fill pressure. 
• Install air vent (furnished) as shown for diaphragm 
type expansion tank system only.
• Install make-up water connections as show. 
• If pressure reducing valve is used, adjust to match 
system fill pressure. 
• Verify clean water supply is available when connecting 
cold make-up water supply to boiler. 
• Use sand strainer at pump if water supply is from well 
or pump.
