INSTALLATION TIPS

1

  Warmboard Comfort System (WCS) 

MUST

  

be installed by a licensed general contractor,  
heating professional or plumber. 

Failure to use 

a properly licensed installer, failure to use the 
required parts and components and/or any 
deviation from these installation guidelines will 
void any product warranty.

2

  WCS uses proprietary, plug-and-play controls 

including thermostats, Manifold Controllers and 
Smart Reset Controller. These items 

CANNOT

  

be exchanged with alternative products.

3

  Electrical components require 120 volt wiring.

4

  All devices communicate via a pre-configured, 

wireless network – there’s no need for additional 
wiring or knowledge of networking equipment.

5

  Warmsource-N (natural gas) and Warmsource-P 

(propane) boilers require no programming or 
commissioning, and water temperatures are 
calibrated using our Indoor Reset algorithm.

6

  Installation of the Warmboard supplied dark  

grey 6" x 3" CPVC pipe to the exhaust gas vent  
is required.

7

  The “constant pressure” circulation pump(s) 

inside Warmsource-N/P adjust flow rates 
depending on the needs of each zone.

8

  Once system plumbing is complete, test the 

system in “Construction Mode” (

page 9

).  

This feature allows installers to test the boiler 
and flow rates, acclimate building products and 
provide heat on cold job sites.

9

  Disable “Construction Mode” before installing 

actuators, Manifold Controller(s) and thermostats.

10

 The use of a combustion analyzer is required to 

calibrate safe carbon monoxide readings. Failure  
to do so could result in injury or death (

page 9

).

Review this guide and the supplied working 
drawings (including the floor plan dimensions) 
before work begins.

WARNING

Breathing Hazard – Carbon Monoxide Gas

Breathing carbon monoxide can cause brain damage

or death. Always read and understand instruction manual.

Do not operate heater if flood damaged

Install vent system in accordance with local 

codes and manufacturers instructions

Do not place chemical vapor emitting 

products near the unit

Per NFPA 720, carbon monoxide detectors 

should be installed outside each sleeping area

Never operate the heater unless it is vented

to the outdoors

Analyze the entire vent system to make sure

condensate will not become trapped in a

section of vent pipe and therefore reduce 

the open cross sectional area of the vent

Warmsource-N

 and 

Warmsource-P

 install 

the the same way. Moving forward, we will be 
referring to these units was Warmsource-N/P.
Follow all instructions and complete the HTP 
registration card.
