CAUTION

KEEP BOILER AREA CLEAN OF DEBRIS AND FREE OF FLAMABLE AND COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, VAPORS AND LIQUIDS

WARNING

When vent pipe is exposed to temperatures below freezing, such as when it passes through an unheated space or when a chimney is used as a raceway, vent pipe must be insulated with 1/2” Armaflex or equivalent. In extreme cold climate areas, use 3/4" Armaflex or equivalent.

Combustion air must be clean outdoor air. Combustion air must not be taken from inside struc- ture because that air frequently is contaminated by halogens, which include fluorides, chlorides, phosphates, bromides and iodides. These elements are found in aerosols, detergents, bleaches, cleaning solvents, salts, air fresheners, paints, adhesives and other household products.

Locate combustion air inlet as far away as possible from swimming pool and swimming pool pump house.

All combustion air and vent pipes must be airtight and watertight. Combustion air and vent piping must also terminate exactly as shown in Fig.9 or 10.

Vent connections serving appliances vented by natural draft shall not be connected into any portion of mechanical draft systems operating under positive pressure.

Solvent cements are combustible. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Use only in well ventilated areas. Avoid breathing in vapor or allowing contact with skin or eyes.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE AFOREMENTIONED WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN FIRE, PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.

F. CONDENSATE DRAIN REQUIREMENTS

Condensate drain line to be pitched down to floor drain at a minimum of 1/4" per foot. An external condensate pump (not furnished) may be used if floor drain is not available. The condensate pump must be designed for flue gas condensate application

NOTE:1. Condensate trap is built into the boiler, an external trap is not required and should not be used.

2.Wood frame or blocks may be used to raise the boiler to maintain drain pitch or to be above external condensate pump reservoir.

3.There is a 115 volt AC receptacle provided on the service switch junction box which is located at the boiler right side, to provide power for an external condensate pump (if needed).

G.FOUNDATION REQUIREMENTS

Boiler must be placed on level surface. Boiler is NOT to be installed on carpeting.

GAS-FIRED BOILERS specifications

Quantum gas-fired boilers represent a significant advancement in the realm of residential and commercial heating solutions. These innovative systems efficiently utilize natural gas to deliver consistent heating, catering to a wide range of climates and applications. With rising energy costs and increasing environmental concerns, the adoption of gas-fired boilers has gained momentum, making them a popular choice for heating needs.

One of the main features of Quantum gas-fired boilers is their impressive energy efficiency. Modern gas boilers are designed to achieve high efficiencies, often ranging from 90% to 98%. This means that the majority of the energy consumed is converted into useful heat, significantly reducing fuel costs and environmental impact. Their ability to operate at such high efficiencies is largely due to advanced condensing technology, which captures and reuses the heat from exhaust gases, thus maximizing the energy extracted from the fuel.

Moreover, Quantum gas-fired boilers are equipped with advanced control systems that allow for precise temperature regulation. These systems can monitor changes in demand and adjust the operation of the boiler accordingly, ensuring that energy consumption is kept to a minimum without sacrificing comfort. This not only promotes energy savings but also extends the lifespan of the appliance.

In addition to efficiency and control, modular design is another important characteristic of Quantum gas-fired boilers. Many models are available in compact sizes, making them suitable for diverse installation environments, including tight spaces and urban areas. Their versatility allows for installation in various configurations, including wall-mounted and floor-standing units, which can be tailored to fit the specific requirements of a heating system.

Moreover, modern Quantum gas-fired boilers come with features that enhance user experience and maintenance. Many incorporate built-in diagnostic tools that indicate potential issues before they become significant problems, facilitating timely interventions and reducing downtime. Some models even offer connectivity features, enabling remote monitoring and control through smartphone applications.

In summary, Quantum gas-fired boilers deliver exceptional energy efficiency and reliability, employing advanced technologies such as condensing methods and smart controls. Their modular design and user-friendly features make them an appealing choice for anyone seeking a high-performing heating solution. As the demand for sustainable and cost-effective heating solutions continues to rise, Quantum gas-fired boilers are poised to play a crucial role in meeting the world's heating needs.
