Weil-Mclain Ultra 105 Serie 3 Boiler Details

The Weil-Mclain Ultra 105 Serie 3 boiler is engineered with a durable cast aluminum heat exchanger, designed for highly efficient condensing operation. This advanced design allows the boiler to recover more heat from flue gases, significantly boosting overall system efficiency and reducing energy consumption.

At the heart of its sophisticated operation is the U-Control Module, a fully programmable system that intelligently modulates the boiler's firing rate. This control features advanced PID response, allowing it to anticipate system needs based on heat input and maintain precise temperature control for optimal comfort and performance.

Installation flexibility is a key advantage, with options for both floor-mounted and wall-mounted configurations, utilizing a specialized wall-mounting kit. The boiler also supports manifolded combustion air for multiple boiler installations, streamlining complex setups and maximizing space efficiency.

Safety is paramount, with the U-Control integrating dual temperature sensors for boiler outlet and flue monitoring. It also provides inherent low water protection by continuously sensing the heat exchanger's temperature, enhancing reliability and preventing potential damage.

The boiler boasts exceptionally quiet operation, thanks to its advanced blower design and an integrated air inlet silencer. This attention to acoustic engineering ensures that the Ultra 105 Serie 3 operates unobtrusively within any residential or commercial environment.

Venting is adaptable, supporting both sidewall and vertical terminations, with choices between concentric or separate pipe systems. Approved materials include PVC, CPVC, ABS-DWV, and AL29-4C, allowing installers to meet various code requirements and installation scenarios.

The U-Control offers extensive programming capabilities, including preset operating parameters for diverse heating systems like finned tube baseboard, radiant floors, and domestic hot water (DHW). It can manage up to three circulators with configurable priority assignments, providing versatile system integration.

Its integral outdoor reset option dynamically adjusts boiler water temperature based on external conditions, further optimizing efficiency and comfort. This feature, combined with the 0-10 VDC signal generator for multiple boiler modulation, highlights its adaptability in various heating architectures.

Maintaining optimal water chemistry is crucial for the boiler's longevity. The manual specifies a pH range of 7.0 to 8.5, hardness less than 7 grains, and chlorine concentration under 200 ppm. The boiler ships with Sentinel X100 inhibitor and a test kit, emphasizing proactive maintenance.

The U-Control also provides comprehensive diagnostic capabilities, including detailed fault indications and lockout history. This facilitates quicker troubleshooting and ensures precise resolution of any operational issues, minimizing downtime and supporting efficient servicing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can't find the answer you need? Here are some frequently asked questions about the Weil-Mclain Ultra 105 Serie 3 Boiler, and we answer them below.


What type of venting system does the Weil-Mclain Ultra 105 Serie 3 boiler require?
The Ultra 105 Serie 3 is a Category IV boiler, requiring a special pressurized vent system. It must be direct-vented with its own separate vent and air piping, either sidewall or vertical, using approved materials like PVC, CPVC, ABS-DWV, or AL29-4C.

Can the Ultra 105 Serie 3 be installed at high altitudes?
Yes, the Ultra 105 Serie 3 can be installed at altitudes above 5,500 feet. The U-Control module can be set to "High Altitude" (HA) in the boiler setup menu, which automatically adjusts firing rates and blower speeds to compensate for the reduced atmospheric pressure.

What are the requirements for boiler water chemistry?
To ensure optimal performance and longevity, the boiler water pH must be maintained between 7.0 and 8.5. Hardness should be less than 7 grains, and chlorine concentration must be less than 200 ppm. Softened water should not be used, and Sentinel X100 inhibitor is supplied and recommended.

Can I use regular automotive antifreeze with this boiler?
No, you must NEVER use automotive or standard glycol antifreeze, even glycol made for hydronic systems. Only freeze-protection fluids specifically recommended by Weil-McLain for Ultra Gas Boilers should be used, following all given guidelines and not exceeding 50% concentration by volume.

Does the Weil-Mclain Ultra 105 Serie 3 have low water protection?
Yes, the U-Control module provides integral low water protection by continuously monitoring the heat exchanger temperature using a dual sensor. This method is accepted in many jurisdictions as meeting low water cutoff requirements, though external devices can be added if local codes demand it.

How is the boiler controlled for heating and domestic hot water?
The boiler uses the U-Control Module, which is fully programmable. It can manage up to three independent heating demands (Priority 1, 2, 3), typically assigning Priority 1 to domestic hot water (DHW) for quick response. It controls circulators and modulates the firing rate based on set parameters and sensor inputs.

Is the Weil-Mclain Ultra 105 Serie 3 boiler energy efficient?
Yes, the Ultra 105 Serie 3 has an Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating of 95%. As an Energy Star Partner, Weil-McLain has confirmed that these boilers meet the Energy Star guidelines for energy efficiency, thanks to their condensing design and advanced controls.

What types of piping materials are approved for venting the Ultra 105 Serie 3?
Approved materials for vent and air piping include PVC schedule 40, PVC-DWV, CPVC schedule 40, ABS-DWV schedule 40, and AL29-4C stainless steel. It is crucial to use only these specified materials and ensure all materials meet local codes.

How often should this boiler be serviced?
A qualified service technician should inspect and service the boiler at least annually, preferably at the beginning of the heating season. This includes checking water chemistry, inspecting the heat exchanger, cleaning the condensate trap, and verifying control settings.

Can this boiler be wall-mounted?
Yes, the Ultra 105 Serie 3 boiler can be wall-mounted using a separately purchased Weil-McLain Ultra boiler wall-mounting kit. The wall must be structurally capable of supporting the boiler's operating weight of 145 pounds.

What is the maximum electrical current for each circulator connected to the U-Control?
The maximum allowable current for each circulator connected directly to the U-Control is 2.2 amps at 120 VAC. For circulators with higher amp ratings, a circulator relay or starter must be installed, with only its coil connected to the Ultra circulator terminals.

How do I convert the Ultra 105 Serie 3 for propane operation?
For the Ultra-105, propane conversion requires the installation of a propane orifice, which comes with a conversion kit. This procedure involves removing the gas valve and placing the orifice disc in the black rubber grommet. Always follow the detailed instructions in the manual, especially regarding safety and verification, and affix the propane conversion label.
