Zoning with circulators

1. Connect boiler to system as shown in Figure 1

when circulator zoning. The boiler circulator can-

not be used for a zone. It must supply only the boiler

loop.

2. Install a separate circulator for each zone.
. Connect water heater (domestic hot water) pip-

ing to indirect storage water heater as shown in

Section A of this manual.

The

PhD Control Module turns off

space heating during water heater heat-

ing. The boiler circulator will turn off,

preventing hot water from circulating to

the system. The flow/check valve shown

on the boiler outlet piping prevents grav-

ity circulation in the boiler loop during

water heater heating.

NOTE 1:

To ensure adequate flow rate through the

boiler, use the following pipe size on all boiler

loop piping (connecting boiler to and from

the primary/secondary connection, item

21):

-80 or

-10 – 1” or larger.

-1 or

-20 – 1¼” or larger.

-10 – 1½” or larger.

Use at least the minimum piping size

above and pipe the boiler using only pri-

mary/secondary piping as shown. Failure

to follow these guidelines could result in

system problems.
