In the event that a local jurisdiction insists upon the installation of a low water cut-off with this boiler, a low water
cut-off kit is available that plugs into the low voltage circuit board (see Part X). Install the low water cut-off in the
supply piping at the point prescribed the local jurisdiction (generally at a point above the boiler).
If a probe type low water cut-off is used, be certain that it is located at a point in the piping from which air can escape to an
automatic air vent. Generally, this means that there should be no down-turns in the piping between the low water cut-off and
the point where the automatic air vent is installed. Failure to do this may result in nuisance boiler shut-downs due to small
amounts of air trapped around the probe.
