heating.

This interruption in central heating is only when demand for
hot water is present and should not be noticed by the User.
10.3 Central Heating Mode
1.
With demand for heating, pump circulates water through
the primary circuit.
2.
Combustion fan comes on at ignition speed, closing the air
pressure switch, allowing power to spark generator and
gas valve, creating ignition in the combustion chamber.

There is no anti-cycling mode after a DHW call for heat if
there is demand.
10.5 Frost Protection
Boiler monitors supply and return water temperatures to
enable frost protection which automatically turns boiler and
pump on.
If water in boiler falls below 41°F (5°C), providing boiler is
connected to power, boiler will operate until water temperature
in the system reaches approximately 86°F (30°C).
Frost protection is for boiler only and not for complete Central
Heating System.

10.7 Low Water Pressure Sensor (Internal)
This device protects primary exchanger from damage. It will not
allow boiler to run in a LOW water pressure situation. Low water
condition occurs when water pressure drops below 7.0 psi (0.5
bar).
