The hour and the minute dial will show exactly See photo below. If it is you will not receive instant hot water. See illustration above. Tabs pushed away from the center ring indicate circulator On while tabs pushed towards the center ring indicate circulator is switched Off.
Depending on each of this factors you may have to wait up to 30 minutes or longer. You can set your Hot Water Recirculating Pump to Start 15 to 30 minutes earlier to compensate if necessary. Follow the instructions below to test the operation of your By-Pass Valve. Verify the Sensor Valve is installed correctly.
The Valve can be installed vertically or horizontally, however it must be installed facing the correct direction as shown in the below illustration. Make sure all connections are tight. You will need to install an additional Sensor Valve at the other end of the house. If so, then you may require adding an additional valve or installing valves in parallel to increase the flow rate and reduce temperature drop.
Then adjust the Programming Tabs for desired run times. When you have Too Many Programming Tabs Pushed To The On position this will cause the Pump to run more often increasing the likelihood of receiving hot water in the cold water supply line. Follow the steps to test for the failure of your By-Pass Valve. If you find that after going through the above tests you are still getting hot water in your cold water supply here are a few things you need to keep in mind. When the Pump is installed and the Hot Water is turned on.
Due to this if your Hot Water is loosing heat through your piping on it's way this can cause the Valve not to close. This condition usually presents itself at System Pressures Over 60 psi.
We recommend you consult with your local plumber. We also recommend using new flex lines as gaskets are usually supplied with them. Keep in mind there may be a need for Dielectric unions when using dissimilar metals as this can lead to premature corrosion if not properly installed.

While tankless heaters will fire at a very low flow rate, that burn will not be continuous unless you meet the minimum flow requirement for stage one.
Without this higher flow rate, the burner will modulate and not keep the water hot as you recirculate. Caution - Before you begin your installation for your safety please insure you have completed this step before moving on. Step 1 - Close the water supply valve to the Water Heater located, in most cases, above the Water Heater on the cold water inlet to the Hot Water Heater. Step 2 - Drain the water from the hot water pipe by opening a hot water faucet in the house.
Let the water run until it stops flowing. Then drain remaining water from Hot Water Heater spigot. If the water does not stop flowing, check to make sure the water to the Hot Water Heater has been completely shut-off.
The Pump should be installed so that the it is pumping away from the Hot Water Heater, towards the house. Confirm the direction of pumping by observing the flow arrow on the side of the Pump Housing.
Be sure that the Pump is not touching the exhaust vent piping chimney of a gas or oil fired Hot Water Heater.
If a gasketed flexible copper Water Heater connector is used, pipe dope or Teflon tape is not required. Step 6 - Reopen the supply valve to the Hot Water Heater and allow the water to run until all the air has been purged from the piping. Step 8 - Plug the line cord of pump into a V outlet.
Be sure to route the power cord so that it does not touch the exhaust vent piping of a gas or oil fired hot water heater. Step 9 - Using the Timer , set the Pump to operate around your peak use times. Step 2 - Place supplied rubber washers in the female end of the Adapters. Note - Do not over tighten. Finger tight plus a quarter turn with wrench. Step 6 - If desired, the Sensor Valve can be mounted to the wall with the mounting screws.
You can mount the Sensor Valve horizontally or vertically but it must be facing the direction as shown below in the illustration. Step 3 - Disconnect the existing Supply Line connection from the faucet connection. A tried and proven method of preventing water leakage, the silicon carbide construction is an often imitated feature of the Armstrong circulator.
Made of strong, long-lasting materials ensures many years of noise-free, trouble-free service. Series features the unique Armstrong shaft and bearing module for ease of serviceability and reduced inventory costs. All circulators are to be mounted with pump and shaft in horizontal position. For domestic hot water or fresh water systems always specify bronze body pumps. Welcome to ManualMachine. We have sent a verification link to to complete your registration.
