3 feet (0.9m) above the point at which they exit

from the roof, it must also extend 2 feet (0.6m)

above the highest point within a 10 ft. (3m) radius.

DO NOT CONNECT THIS uNIT TO A CHImNEy

fLuE THAT IS SErVING ANOTHEr AppLIANCE.

Limit connector pipe to 8 ft. or less, with

no more than two elbows. All horizontal sections

should have 1/4 in. rise per foot. The chimney

must be capable of providing a draft reading of at

least .06 in. of water column. A barometric damper

can be installed to prevent excessive and erratic

draft. All connector pipe should be secured with

sheet metal screws at each joint.

The Harman Trident Boiler can be used as

a “Stand Alone” boiler or as an add-on to an exist-

ing hot water heating system.

The diagrams in this manual are meant to

show the necessary equipment and piping. Your

system may look very different. However, if config-

ured properly, the same results will be achieved.

Fig. 6 shows a typical plumbing diagram

for tying into an existing system. This method

provides water circulation between the two boilers

with a circulating pump. In this setup, the domes-

tic water coil in the existing boiler will be heated,

making it unnecessary to install a water coil in the

Trident Boiler.

Tying-in to an existing boiler must be done

in the return line between the circulator and the

existing boiler. Run a pipe from there to a small

circulator, and then into the 1-1/4 in. fitting on the

rear of the Trident Boiler. Next run a pipe from the

1-1/4 in. fitting on the top of the Trident Boiler to a

Tee fitting in the supply line of the existing boiler.

This Tee fitting must be installed between the ex-

isting boiler and the Flow Control Valve, as shown

in Fig. 6. An air valve should be installed on this

line also.

Notice:

The Aquastat controls supplied with

the Trident Boiler are designed only

to maintain water temperature within

the boiler. The actual heating sys-

tem is controlled separately by your

thermostat(s) opening zone valves or

energizing circulation pump(s).

Do not attach a thermostat to the sup-

plied controls.
