I . Installation Instructions
1.Inspect shipment carefully for any signs of damage. All equipment is carefully manufactured, inspected and packed. Our responsibility ceases upon delivery of Boiler to the carrier in good condition. Any claims for damage or shortage in shipment must be filed immediately against the carrier by the consignee. No claims for variances or shortages will be allowed by Boiler Manufacturer unless presented within sixty (60) days after receipt of equipment.
2. Boiler installation must conform to the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction, or in the absence of such requirements, to:
U.S.A. - National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.
When required by the authority having juris- diction, the installation must conform to ANSI/ASME No.
Canada - "Installation Codes for Natural and LP Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment, CAN/
3.These Gas Boilers are DESIGN CERTIFIED FOR installation on combustible flooring. Do not install these boilers on carpeting.
NOTICE
Do not drop boiler. Do not bump boiler jacket against floor.
4.Locate boiler in front of or behind installation position before removing Crate. Locate on a level floor as close to chimney as possible. For basement installations, provide a solid base such as concrete, if floor is not level or if water may be encountered on floor around Boiler.
The boiler shall be installed such that the gas ignition system components are protected from water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during boiler operation and service (circulator replacement, control replacement, etc.).
DANGER
Do not install boiler where gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids, or sources of hydrocarbons (i.e. bleaches, cleaners, chemicals, sprays, paint removers, fabric softeners, etc.) are used or stored.
5.Remove crate -
A.Remove all crate fasteners. Lift off outside container.
B.Remove all screws and brackets securing boiler to skid.
C.Save two of the wooden slats from the container sleeve for use in Steps D & E.
D.Tilt the boiler to one side and slide a wooden slat under the two raised feet.
E.Tilt the boiler to the other side and slide another wooden slat under the two raised feet.
F.Slide the boiler forward or backward off the skid using the two wooden slats as runners.
6.Move boiler to permanent position.
7.PROVIDE CLEARANCE and AIR for COMBUS- TION and VENTILATION.
WARNING
Adequate combustion and ventilation air must be provided to assure proper combustion.
A.CLEARANCES
1.ALL INSTALLATIONS - Practical service clearances must be considered (see Figure 1). A minimum of 24" (6.0cm) from the left side and front jacket panels is recommended for servicing but may be reduced to minimum shown in Figure 2. Subject to boiler and system piping, left side clearance may be reduced to 1" (2.5cm) if right side clearance is increased to 9" (22.9cm).
2.ALCOVE INSTALLATIONS - An alcove is considered a closet as shown in Figure 2 less front. Height clearance may be reduced to 27" (68.6cm).
3.UNCONFINED SPACE (see definition, paragraph (B) below) - Height clearance may be reduced to 27" (68.6cm).
B.PROVIDE COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR in accordance with applicable provisions of local building codes, or: U.S.A. - National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1, Canada - Natural and Propane Gas Installation Code, CAN/
1.CLOSET INSTALLATIONS (confined space) in
abuilding of other than unusually tight construction (see definition below), provide combustion and ventilation air as shown in Figure 2.
2.Installations other than closet in paragraph (1) :
a.Determine volume of space (boiler room). Rooms communicating directly with space (through openings not furnished with doors) are considered part of space.
