4. MULTIPLE VENT TABLE

Table 5 on page 17 has been compiled to show the material sizes in a Type B doublewall combined vent system. Refer to CAN/CSA B149 .1 (current edition), or the ASHRAE 1983 Equipment Volume for further information.

A combined vent system is one in which two or more boilers at one level are attached to a common vent.

In order to use table 5, the connector rise and total vent height must be known. Connector rise is vertical distance from the draft hood outlet to the point where the manifold connection is made. Total vent height is the least vertical distance from a draft hood outlet to the top of the vent. Local codes or utility requirements often govern termination height. ULC listed doublewall gas vents, up through 24" (610mm) diameter, can be installed in heated and unheated areas and can pass through floors, ceilings, partitions, walls and roofs, provided the required one inch clearance is observed. These vents should be installed in accordance with CAN/CSA B149.1 (current edition).

VENTING MAINTENANCE - STANDARD VENTING

It is recommended that the heating surfaces and vent piping of the appliance be checked every six months for dust, deterioration and carbon deposits. Remove all soot or other obstructions from chimney and flue which will retard free draft. Replace any damaged or deteriorated parts of the venting system.

Qualified servicers should follow this procedure when the boiler’s external heating surfaces and vent pipe need cleaning.

CAUTION

DO NOT USE A NYLON BRUSH OR OTHER STATIC CREATING MATERIAL TO CLEAN DUST AND CARBON DEPOSITS FROM HEATING SURFACES AND VENT.

SUCH DEPOSITS ARE FLAMMABLE AND MAY BE IGNITED BY STATIC ELECTRICITY. USE A METAL BRUSH TO MINIMIZE THE DANGER OF EXPLOSION.

1.Turn off the electrical power (main manual gas shutoff and pilot valves, if applicable).

Allow boiler parts and vent to cool before disassembly.

2.Remove the boiler draft diverter and vent pipe running to the chimney.

•Check parts and chimney for obstructions and clean as necessary.

3.Remove burner from boiler and other metal parts as required to clean and vacuum the heat exchanger and combustion coils.

•Refer to parts list supplied with this manual for disassembly aid.

4.Reinstall the parts removed in steps 2 and 3.

•Be sure the vent pipe has a minimum upward pitch of one quarter inch per foot of length (21mm/m) and is sealed as necessary.

5.Restore electrical power and gas supply to boiler.

•Place boiler in operation by following the lighting instructions in this manual.

•Check for gas leaks and proper boiler and vent operation.

VENTING - SIDEWALL (OPTIONAL) POWER VENT SYSTEM

If you are installing the optional Power Vent Kit, refer to your HW Power Vent Kit Installation Instructions for proper wiring and installation procedures. Contact your local A. O. Smith representative for details.

VENTING SYSTEM

HAVE VENTING SYSTEM CHECKED EVERY SIX MONTHS FOR OBSTRUCTIONS AND/OR DETERIORATION IN VENT PIPING.

A.Insofar as is practical, close all doors, windows and air inlets to the building. Turn on all exhaust fans (range hood, bathroom exhaust, etc.) so they will operate at their maximum speed. Close fireplace dampers.

B.After allowing appliance to operate for five minutes, test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening.

C.“CHECKING THE DRAFT. Operate vent connected gas utilization equipment for several minutes and check to see that the combustion products are going up the chimney or gas vent properly by passing a lighted match or taper around the edge of the relief opening of the draft hood. If the chimney or gas vent is drawing properly, the match flame will be drawn into the draft hood. If not, the combustion products will tend to extinguish this flame. IF THE COMBUSTION PRODUCTS ARE ESCAPING FROM THE RELIEF OPENING OF THE DRAFT HOOD, DO NOT OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT UNTIL PROPER ADJUSTMENT OR REPAIRS ARE MADE TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE DRAFT THROUGH THE CHIMNEY OR GAS VENT.”

D.Next, turn on all other fuel burning appliances within the same room so they will operate at their full input.

Repeat step C above, checking the draft on each appliance.
