IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Please read this page carefully.

ALL BOILERS MUST BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH NATIONAL, STATE AND LOCAL PLUMBING, HEATING AND ELECTRICAL CODES AND ORDINANCES, AS WELL AS THE REGULATIONS OF THE SERVING ELECTRICAL, WATER AND GAS UTILITIES.

All systems should be designed and installed by licensed heating contractors who are knowledgeable in the layout and installation of multi-fuel heating systems.

WARNING

The 3WOOD Boiler must be positioned to provide at least 36” of clearance between any combustible material and the sides, rear, and top of the boiler. At least 60” must be provided between the front of the boiler and any combustible material. Boiler must be set on a non-combustible floor.

Do not burn volatile garbage, gasoline, naphtha, propane, engine oil, or other flammable liquids. All flammable liquids (especially gasoline), debris, rags, paper, wood scraps, etc., should be kept clear of the boiler at all times. Keep the boiler area clean and free of fire hazards.

All 3WOOD Boilers must be connected to a tile-lined flue with a minimum size of 8”x 8” or to an insulated metal chimney with a minimum size of 6”. NO OTHER APPLIANCE SHOULD BE VENTED THROUGH THIS FLUE! Your chimney flue should be inspected regularly (BI-Monthly) for any build up of fly ash or creosote.

It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to see that all controls are correctly installed and are operating properly when the installation is completed.

Please read the literature and warranty supplied by the manufacturer of the various accessory devices.

These devices are warranted by the manufacturer, not by QHT, Inc. or BIASI. These accessory devices must be installed and used according to the recommendations of the manufacturer.

Do not use self contained, non-electrical zone valves in the zone controlled by the overheat control.

When references are made to tapping numbers, please refer to the specifications sections.

All firewood used in this boiler must be dried to moisture content of 20% or less. (see pg.11)

Homeowners should read and familiarize themselves with “Procedure In Event Of Power Failure”. (see pg.9)

Anyone who is going to operate this boiler MUST read and familiarize himself or herself with “Starting And Maintaining A Fire”. (see pg.23)

DANGER

COAL FIRES CAN PRODUCE POISONOUS GASES!

All coal fires produce large quantities of carbon monoxide (CO), a highly poisonous gas. Exposure to this gas produces drowsiness, sleep and, in some cases, brain damage or even death. Since carbon monoxide is odorless and colorless, the victim is rarely aware that he or she is being overcome until it is too late.

Normally, carbon monoxide burns as a blue flame over the coal bed, but under and of the following conditions, unburnt carbon monoxide gas could escape from the combustion chamber, stove pipe, flue or chimney and enter the house:

·A blocked chimney

·An internal blockage in the heating appliance that can be caused by a build up of ashes, poor positioning of the coal, or firing with too much fuel.

·A closed smoke pipe damper

·A poor chimney draft

If you are burning coal or plan to burn coal, make certain that none of the conditions listed above exist. If you have any questions about coal burning, please consult with your contractor or the BIASI Distributor.
