IIIBefore Installing

1)Safe, reliable operation of this boiler depends upon installation by a professional heating contractor in strict accordance with this manual and the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.

In the absence of an authority having jurisdiction, installation must be in accordance with this manual and the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-latest edition.

Where required by the authority having jurisdiction, this installation must conform to the Standard for Controls and Safety Devices for Automatically Fired Boilers (ANSI/ASME CSD-1)-latest edition.

Warning

This Product Must be Installed By A Licensed Plumber Or Gas Fitter when Installed Within The Commonwealth Of Massachusetts

2)Make sure that a properly sized chimney is available which is in good condition. Consult the authority having jurisdiction, Part VI of this manual, and the National Fuel Gas Code for additional information on venting requirements.

3)Make sure that the boiler is correctly sized. Use an industry accepted sizing method such as the I=B=R Installation Guide for Residential Hydronic Heating Systems (Pub. #200) and I=B=R Heat Loss Calculation Guide (Pub. #H21 or #H22) published by the Hydronics Institute in Berkeley Heights NJ.

4)Make sure that the boiler received is configured for the correct gas (natural or LP). The BSI345 and BSI379 may only be used with natural gas.

5)Boilers installed at altitudes above 2000 ft. require different burners and main burner orifice than those at sea level. Make sure that the boiler is configured for use at the correct altitude.

6)If this boiler was received as a knockdown boiler, follow the instructions in Appendix A to assemble the boiler.

IV Locating the Boiler

1)Clearances:

Observe the minimum clearances shown below. These clearances apply to all combustible construction, as well as noncombustible walls, ceilings and doors. Also see Figure 2.

Front – 18”

Right Side – 18”

Left Side – 6”

Rear – 6”

Top – 17”

A 24” service clearance from the jacket is recommended on the left, right, and front of the boiler. These clearances may be reduced to those shown in Figure 2, however servicing the boiler will become increasingly difficult as these service clearances are reduced.

If the right side 24” service clearance is reduced, adequate clearance must be maintained to easily read and access the controls. Alternatively, access may be provided using a door

2)This boiler may be installed directly over a non-carpeted combustible floor.

3)The boiler must be installed on a hard level surface.
