APPLICATION:

   

  
 
The EZB-Eco is a packaged system complete with boiler vessel, expansion tank, 
air eliminator and circulating pump. It is designed to be used in a variety of 
radiant hydronic heating applications. These include radiant floor, baseboard or 
radiator heating. These applications can be single or multiple zones. If any single 
zone provides less than the minimum required GPM of the boiler, an Electro 
Industries’ zone controller option is 

highly

 

recommended.

  

 
This series is equipped for load management interrupt with backup boiler output.  

 

ACCESSORIES:

 

Electro Zone Controller models EB-ZEA-1 and EB-ZES8 

 

 

Electro Dual Fuel Control Module EB-S-SB  

 

IMPORTANT:

 

The included expansion tank is shipped loose within the EZB-Eco enclosure. The 
expansion tank must be installed prior to filling the system. See Mechanical 
Installation section. 

 

Note: 

This product meets the requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. 

 

Conforms to: UL STD.UL834 
Certified to: CSA STD.C22.2#165 
 
 

DO NOT DESTROY THIS MANUAL.  PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP IN A SAFE 

PLACE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE BY A SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
