INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
The installation must conform to the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such requirements, to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1- latest edition.
This installation must also conform to the additional require- ments in this Slant/Fin Instruction Book.
BOILER LOCATION
Provide a level, solid foundation for the boiler. Location should be as near as possible to chimney or outside wall so that the flue pipe from boiler is short and direct. (See para- graph heading “Vent Termination Location and Clearance” on page 8.) The location should also be such that all boiler components are protected from water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during appliance operation and service (circulator replacement, control replacement, etc.).
BOILER FOUNDATION
A.Provide a solid, level foundation, capable of supporting the weight of the boiler filled with water, and extending at least 2" past the jacket on all sides. See dimensions of boilers, page 2.
B.Boiler can be installed on both combustible and
C.If boiler is to be located over buried conduit containing electric wires or telephone cables, consult local codes or the National Board of Fire Underwriters for specific requirements.
* 2" FOR ENCLOSED
MINIMUM CLEARANCES FROM COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTIONS
A.Minimum clearances to the exterior surfaces of the boiler shall be as follows:
MINIMUM ALCOVE AND CLOSET CLEARANCE
| For Combustible | Recommended |
Surface | Construction | for Service |
Front | 0" | 24" |
Rear | 0" | 6" |
Left Side | 0" | 0" |
Right Side | 0" | 0" |
Top | 4" | 6" |
Flue Connector: |

B.Provide accessibility clearance of 8" on sides requiring servicing and 18" on sides used for passage.
C.All minimum clearances shown above must be met. This may result in increased values of some minimum clear- ances in order to maintain the minimum clearances of others.
D.Clearance from hot water pipes shall be 1 inch**.
**At points where hot water pipes emerge from a floor, wall or ceiling, the clearance at the opening through the finished floor boards or wall or ceiling boards may be not less than 1/2 inch. Each such opening shall be covered with a plate of uncombustible material.
SAFETY
KEEP THE BOILER AREA CLEAR AND FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, GASOLINE AND OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS.
