Going Away
When going away during freezing weather and no one will be keeping the boiler going, turn the
backup heat system on, the rear control switch off and keep the circulation pump running. The
boiler will now operate in reverse heat being kept above freezing by the backup system eliminating
the need to otherwise drain the boiler, invest in anti-freeze or find someone to load wood.
Please keep this manual with all other important papers. The information in this manual is
necessary for the installation, operation and proper use of the boiler. If you should ever have a
problem or question refer to this manual or call your dealer. If your dealer does not have the
information you need, request they contact Nature’s Comfort and your dealer will be further
educated to provide the best possible customer service. Please keep in mind that Nature’s Comfort
built the boiler but did not install it and has no control over the installation, operation, efficiency of
the building’s insulation or what is burned in the boiler.
