temperature in the water heater has reached the set

point. If water is not being circulated through the coil

but the pump is running, then open the air bleed

valve in the unit and purge any air left in the system.

8) Adjust the water heater thermostat so that the water

temperature entering the hot water coils is 120 –

180ºF depending on the amount of heat required by

the structure. This is done with the unit energized

and operating long enough for all temperatures to

stabalize.

installation.

After all connections are made, start-up and check-up of

the unit must be performed before proper evaluation of

the entire system can be made. Make sure that heat

anticipator is properly set as noted on thermostat

instructions.

Load requirements can vary in each residence and it

may be necessary for the installer or homeowner to

make slight adjustments to the heat anticipator setting

for longer or shorter cycles. It is recommended to

change the setting no more than plus or minus 0.05

amps at a time. Greater changes can cause the unit to

rapid cycle or remain on excessively. To properly check

the unit's operation, the installer should have an

electrical current measuring device (0-10 amp Amprobe,

Fluke), air pressure measuring device (0-1.0 in slope

gauge), and a temperature-measuring device (0-200ºF

thermometer).

Install the Amprobe to measure blower current, the slope

gauge to measure static air pressure at the units and the

temperature device to measure unit supply and return air

temperature. Before taking measurements, be sure that

all registers, grilles and dampers are open or set to their

proper positions. Be sure that clean filters are in place.

Temperature measuring device must be installed to

obtain average temperature at both inlet and outlet. For

outlet, measure temperature of each main trunk at a

location far enough away to avoid heater radiation and

read the average temperatures. Table 1 below shows

Electric Heat Controls

Turn on power supply. Set thermostat fan switch to

on. Set the cooling indicator to maximum, heating to

minimum. System switch may be on heat or cool.

Check slope gauge measurement against

appropriate air flow chart. Make damper, register

and motor speed adjustments to obtain required

airflow.

Set thermostat fan switch to auto, system to heat

and thermostat heating indicator to maximum heat.

Blower should start and all heat be energized.

Check air flow using temperature rise method.
