This water heater is not intended for outdoor installations
Maintain minimal piping distance between the boiler and
the water heater to:
- Reduce piping heat loss
- Provide minimal friction loss
Locate water heater in a manner that any leakage from
the heater or water connections will not cause damage
to the area adjoining the water heater or to lower floors
in the structure. When such a location is unavoidable, a
suitable drain pan with adequate drainage should be
placed under the water heater.

1. Locate a wall stud in the general location of the
water heater placement.
2. Place the water heater mounting bracket against the
wall centering it along the wall stud.
3. Vertically plumb the mounting bracket while main-
taining it’s centering with the wall stud and use a
pencil to mark the location of the mounting holes.
See Fig. 1, page 5.
4. Remove the bracket from the wall and drill 1/4"
diameter hole by 3 inches deep, position in the cen-
ter of each mark. For applications using metal studs
and 3/16” toggle bolts, drill the required clearance
hole.
5. Mount the bracket onto the water heater using the
provided mounting bolts. Ensure the mounting bolts
are fully tightened and the bracket is securely fas-
tened to the water heater. See Fig. 2, page 5.
6. Reposition the bracket and water heater onto the wall
and align the bracket and wall holes. Insert the two
lag screws (wood studs) or toggle bolts (metal studs)
through the mounting holes and loosely tighten.
7. Vertically plumb the water heater and tighten the
screws (or bolts) securely making sure not to over-
tighten to avoid damaging drywell or plaster.

1. Install the pressure relief with discharge piping on
the cold water supply to the water heater as shown
in Fig. 3, page 7.
2. To avoid potential water damage to the surrounding
area or potential scalding hazard due to the opera-
tion of the relief valve, the discharge piping:
- Must be connected to the discharge outlet of the
relief valve and directed to a suitable place of
disposal.
- Length should be short and direct as possible.
The size of the discharge piping should not be
reduced, maintain the same size as the outlet of
the relief valve.
- Should be directed downward towards the floor
at all times. The piping should terminate at least
6 inches above any drain connection to allow
clear visibility of the discharge.
- Should terminate with a plain end, not threaded.
The material of the piping should have a serv-
iceable temperature rating of 250°F or greater.
- Should not be subject to conditions where freez-
ing could occur.
CAUTION
- Should not contain any shut-off valves or
obstructions. o shut-off valve should be piped
between the water heater and the relief valve.

removing the thumb screw along the upper edge of
the jacket panel. Once the thumb screw is removed,
pull the panel slightly forward and lift up.
3. Route the wiring from the Sensor to the PRESTIGE
boiler. Once at the PRESTIGE, route the wiring
through the PRESTIGE wire access openings and
along the wire ways inside the PRESTIGE.
4. Disconnect the bottom half of the PRESTIGE’s low
voltage terminal block. Strip the wire ends and attach
to terminals 11 and 12 using the terminal block wire
tool supplied with the PRESTIGE. See Fig. 6.
5. Once the wiring is attached to the terminal block,
reconnect the terminal block to the terminal strip.
Ensure the connection is complete and secure.
6. Replace the PRESTIGE front jacket panel and
secure with the thumb screw.
7. Restore power to the PRESTIGE boiler.

To achieve the boiler operating temperature during a
domestic request for heat the MCBA Control uses
Parameter 1 and a second parameter, Parameter 21
DHW Set Value Addition. Parameter 1 plus Parameter
21 will establish the boiler operating temperature limit.
If Parameter 1 is set below 134ºF it is recommended that
Parameter 21 be reset to a higher setting. The request
for domestic heat is based on the temperature reading of
the DHW sensor and its relationship to Parameter 1.
The operating boiler temperature setpoint is based on
Parameter 1 plus Parameter 21 with a maximum operat-
ing temperature of 194ºF.
To revise the parameter setting within the PRESTIGE
Control Module for the DHW Set Value Addition, the

The MCBA Control Module has 2 differential settings for
the burner operation when using the IDWH Sensor
parameter setting. The first differential setting the
installer has the option of adjusting is Parameter 38
“Detection O ”. This parameter sets the DHW storage
temperature low limit. The burner operation will respond
when the DHW storage temperature drops below
Parameter 1 setting minus Parameter 38 setting.
A minimum “Detection O ” parameter setting will create
a quicker burner operation response to any domestic
water draws from the water heater. In contrast, a maxi-
mum “Detection O ” setting will result in a delay
response to domestic draws.

The second differential setting is Parameter 39
“Detection OFF”. This parameter sets the DHW storage
temperature high limit. The burner operation will cease
when the DHW temperature rises above Parameter 1
plus Parameter 39.
A maximum “Detection OFF” parameter setting will result
in an extended burner firing cycle when responding to
any domestic water draws from the water heater. This
extended burner firing cycle could result in a final tem-
perature of the domestic hot water that is higher than the
desired temperature setting.

The Frost Protection feature is designed to protect the
UIT from a potential freeze up. The protection is acti-
vated once the IDWH Sensor records a domestic tem-
perature of 38ºF. At that time the PRESTIGE boiler will
begin the burner function at low input and the DHW cir-
culator will begin circulating. The burner will continue
operating at minimum input with the DHW circulator
energized until the IDWH Sensor senses a domestic
water temperature of 50ºF. At that point the boiler will
shut down the burner function and the DHW circulator.
This feature is always active even if the DHW operation
is in the OFF mode.

If Parameter 46 setting is 12 (IDWH Sensor) the follow-
ing “soft” lockouts could occur:
b_38 alternating with a status code of 9
The IDWH Sensor is not properly connected to
the PRESTIGE low voltage terminal strip.
Check for proper connections and proper termi-
nals
b_33 alternating with a status code of 9
The IDWH Sensor is short-circuited. Check if
the DHW is being used and is properly con-
nected to the PRESTIGE low voltage terminals.
Ensure Parameter 46 is correctly set for 12 and
is stored properly.
Once the condition is corrected the errors will automati-
cally reset and the PRESTIGE will return to normal oper-
ation.
