5)Assembly of Protech FasNSeal

a)FasNSeal General Notes:

Do not cut 4” FasNSeal pipe. Consult FasNSeal instructions for method of cutting other 3” pipe.

Orient FasNSeal vent components so that the arrows on the piping labels are in the direction of flue gas flow.

Support horizontal piping sections at intervals of 6 feet or less.

Vertical venting systems must be supported by at least one FasNSeal support. An additional vertical support is required after any offset.

b)Remove the hose clamp shipped on the BWC vent collar. Bend the three hose clamp tabs on this collar outward slightly. Clean the exterior of the male end of the first piece of pipe and the inside of the vent collar on the boiler. Remove dirt, grease, and moisture from the surfaces to be sealed. On the male

end of the pipe, apply a ¼” wide bead of high temperature silicone approximately 1/4 inch from the male end of the pipe. Insert the male end of the pipe into the boiler vent collar until it bottoms out. Apply an additional bead of silicone over the outside of the joint and the seams on the vent collar and smooth out (Fig 6.10). Replace and tighten the clamp on the vent collar.

c)All other joints in the FasNSeal venting system rely on a gasket in the female end of the pipe for a proper seal.

d)Align the longitudinal seam of both pipes. Insert the male end of the second pipe into the female end of the first pipe until the bead on the male end contacts the flare on the female end.

e)Tighten the locking band with a nut driver.

f)Repeat (d) and (e) for the remaining FasNSeal components.

g)Allow the silicone to cure per the silicone manufacturer’s instructions before operating the boiler.

6)Assembly of the air intake system:

a)Assemble the air intake system using either galvanized or PVC pipe.

b)If PVC piping is used, use PVC cement to assemble the PVC intake system components.

c)If galvanized piping is used, use at least two sheet metal screws per joint. Seal the outside of all joints.

BWC Series specifications

The Crown Boiler BWC Series is a modern choice for heating needs, renowned for its efficiency and robust design. This series offers a range of residential and light commercial heating applicabilities, ensuring both comfort and reliability for users.

One of the standout features of the BWC Series is its efficiency. Crown Boilers utilize advanced technologies to maximize energy output while minimizing fuel consumption. With an AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) rating often exceeding 90%, users can expect significant cost savings on their energy bills over time.

The BWC Series employs a high-quality, stainless steel heat exchanger, which not only enhances performance but also extends the lifespan of the boiler. This heat exchanger is designed to transfer heat efficiently, ensuring that the maximum amount of energy from the fuel is converted into usable heat. Additionally, the design helps to prevent corrosion and maintain system integrity over years of usage.

For technological advancements, the BWC Series incorporates a modulating gas valve which allows for precise control over the boiler's operation. This feature enables the system to adjust its output based on the heating demands of the home, resulting in improved energy efficiency and consistent comfort levels. Moreover, this modulating technology reduces the frequency of cycling, thereby prolonging the lifespan of the unit and minimizing wear and tear.

Another characteristic of the Crown Boiler BWC Series is its user-friendly interface. The boiler is equipped with a simple control panel that allows for easy monitoring and adjustment of settings. This accessibility is essential for users who want to manage their heating system without the need for extensive technical knowledge.

In terms of installation and maintenance, the BWC Series is designed with convenience in mind. Its compact footprint allows it to fit comfortably in a variety of spaces, making it an ideal choice for homes with limited installation areas. Additionally, Crown Boiler's commitment to high manufacturing standards ensures that the units require minimal maintenance, providing peace of mind to homeowners.

Overall, the Crown Boiler BWC Series is an excellent solution for those seeking efficient, reliable heating. Its combination of advanced technology, quality construction, and user-friendly design makes it an attractive option for any residential or light commercial application. Whether replacing an old system or installing a new one, the BWC Series delivers comfort and performance that can be depended upon.
