Filling the Inner (Domestic Water) Tank
• Never use the Excellence unless inner and
outer tank of the water heater is completely
filled with water.
• Inner tank of the Excellence water heater
must be completely filled and pressurized
before pressurizing outer tank.
1. Close domestic water drain valve.
2. Open domestic water isolation valves on the
water heater piping.
3. Vent air from inner (domestic water) tank by
opening nearest hot water faucet. Fill domes-
tic water tank completely by allowing water to
run until there is a constant flow of water.
4. Close hot water faucet.
Filling the Outer (Boiler Water) Tank
• Never use the Excellence unless inner and
outer tank of the water heater is completely
filled with water.
• Inner tank of the Excellence water heater
must be completely filled and pressurized
before pressurizing outer tank.
Reference the PRESTIGE Excellence boiler
manual for boiler start-up and guidelines for
filling the boiler.
If antifreeze is used in boiler water, check concen-
tration. Boiler water (including additives) must be
practically non-toxic, having toxicity rating or class
of 1, as listed in Clinical Toxicology of Commercial
Products.
Do not use automotive, ethylene glycol or
petroleum-based antifreeze. Do not use any
undiluted antifreeze. This can cause severe
personal injury, death or substantial property
damage.
Setting the Thermostatic Mixing Valve
The thermostatic mixing valve controls the
outlet hot water temperature delivered to
the faucets.
POTENTIAL SCALD HAZARD. The mix-
ing valve must be installed on the
Excellence. Removal of the mixing valve
will create a potential scald hazard resulting
in severe personal injury or death.
If any adjustment needs to be made on the valve:
- Use a L-Key to remove the set screw securing
the knob to the valve.
- Remove the knob and lock ring from the valve.
- Replace the knob and adjust the set tempera-
ture of the valve to the desired temperature.
To calibrate the outlet temperature, allow
the water to run for approximately 2 min-
utes and measure the water with a ther-
mometer. To adjust the valve setting, rotate
the knob clockwise to decrease the water
temperature or counter-clockwise to
increase the water temperature.
- Once the desired temperature is achieved,
remove the knob and refit the lock ring onto the
valve’s “Mix” marking.
- Locate the tab on the inner face of the knob
into the retainer in the locking ring. Secure the
knob with set screw.
