SECTION 1.
Caring For Your Summit
Your Summit will require very little
maintenance. However, as with any fine appliance,
there are certain steps you should take to insure
continuing optimum performance.
1A. General Care
Keep your Summit area clean and free from
combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable
vapors and liquids.
If you desire, clean the jacket surfaces with a
damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use flammable
cleaning materials.
Keep vent terminal free of obstructions — do
not pile snow against vent terminal.
1B. Annual Inspection of Flue and Vents
You should visually inspect the vent pipe once a
year. Should any deterioration exist, have the affected
parts replaced.
1C. Shutting Down the Summit Boiler
If the need arises to shut down your boiler, the
following steps are required.
1.
Switch off main disconnect switch (located on
left side of unit).
2. Close manual gas shutoff valve above
combination gas control valve (inside unit).
3. Close main manual gas valve.
4. If freezing is anticipated, drain Summit and be
sure to also protect building piping from
freezing.
The above steps may require qualified service
personnel.
1D. To Restart Your Summit
Should the need arise, you may have to restart
your Summit. Follow these steps:
1.
Momentarily depress reset button on top of
control panel
2. Turn up the thermostat to call for heat.
3. In approximately 2 seconds, the blower will
operate and ignition will occur after 35-40
seconds. It may take as long as 2½ minutes.
4. If it does not occur, wait 5 minutes and then
repeat steps 1 through 3.
5. If, after three attempts, you still do not get
ignition, shut down your Summit and call your
service man.
If drained, follow these steps:
1.
Follow “Installation Manual” for proper filling
and purging.
2. Turn on main manual gas valve.
3. Remove front cover and turn on manual gas
shutoff valve, above combination gas control
valve.
4. Switch on main disconnect switch, depress on/
off button on front of control panel, and depress
black reset button on top of control panel (pump
and blower will start and igniter will be
energized, after 35 seconds the gas valve will be
energized, and ignition will occur). If ignition
does not occur within 2½ minutes switch “off”
main disconnect switch, wait 5 minutes and
switch “on” again. If after three attempts ignition
does not occur, initiate shutdown procedure and
call for service.
