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 CWI345 and CWI379 may only be used with natural gas.
5)Boilers installed at altitudes above 2000 ft. may 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.
