INSTALLATION & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

3.Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and windows and all doors between the space in which the appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are located and other spaces of the building. Turn on cloths dryers and any appliance not connected to the common venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so that they will operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.

Dans la mesure du possible, fermer toutes les portes et les fenêtres du bâtiment et toutes les portes entre l’espace où les appareils toujours raccordés du système d’évacuation sont installés et les autres espaces du bâtiment. Mettre en marche les sécheuses, tous les appareils non raccordés au système d’évacuation commun et tous les ventilateurs d’extraction comme les hottes de cuisinère et les ventilateurs des salles de bain. S’assurer que ces ventilateurs fonctionnent à la vitesse maximale. Ne pas faire fonctionner les ventilateurs d’été. Fermer les registres des cheminées.

4.Place in operation the appliance being inspected. Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust the thermostat so the appliance will operate continuously.

Mettre l’appareil inspecté en marche. Suivre les instructions d’allumage. Régler le thermostat de façon que l’appareil fonctionne de façon continue.

5.Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle, or smoke from a cigarette, cigar or pipe.

Faire fonctionner le brûleur principal pendant 5 min ensuite, déterminer si le coupe-tirage déborde à l’ouverture de décharge. Utiliser la flamme d’une allunette ou d’une chandelle ou la fumée d’une cigarette, d’un cigare ou d’une pipe.

6.After it has been determined that each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas-burning appliance to their previous condition of use.

Une fois qu’il a été d éterminé, selon la métode indiquée ci- dessus, que chaque appareil raccordé au système d’évacuation est mis à l’air libre de façor adéquate. Remettre les portes et les fenêtres, les ventilateurs, les registres de cheminées et les appareils au gaz à leur position originale.

7.Any improper operation of the common venting system should be corrected so the installation conforms with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54. When resizing any portion of the common venting system, the common venting system should be resized to approach the minimum size as determined using the appropriate tables in Appendix F in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and or CSA B149 Installation Codes.

Tout mauvais fonctionnement du systéme d’évacu-tion commun devrait étré corrigé de façor que l’installation soit conforme au National Fue Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 et (ou) aux codes d’in-stallation CSA-B149. Si la grosseur d’une section du système d’ évacuation doit étré modifiée, le système devrait étré modifié pour respecter les valeurs minimales des tableaux pertinents de l’appendice F du National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA 54 et (ou) des codes d’installation CSA-B149.

CHIMNEY VENTING

WARNING: This boiler must be vented in accordance with Part 7, Venting of Equipment, of the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and all applicable local building codes. In Canada, follow CAN/CGA B149.1 or .2 Installation Codes. Improper venting of this appliance can result in excessive levels of carbon monoxide which can result in severe personal injury or death!

Chimney Inspection & Sizing

A GV100W series boiler can be vented into a masonry chimney, FIG. NO. 4, provided several conditions are met:

a thorough inspection of the chimney must be performed.

the chimney must have a vitreous tile lining that is clean, properly constructed and properly sized.

the chimney must not be located on an external wall or be located in an unheated space unless the chimney is lined with a corrosion resistant metal liner and a condensate trap is installed.

the boiler must not be connected to a flue used for a fireplace, wood stove or other solid fuel device.

If possible the boiler and a gas fired hot water heater should be connected to the same chimney flue. They must have their own vent connector and enter the flue at least 6 in, 152 mm apart. Consult the latest revision of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 and follow all local codes to ensure that the chimney is the proper size for the given installation.

WARNING: Failure to connect this boiler to the chimney using vent pipe of the proper diameter, as listed in Table 1, could cause carbon monoxide poisoning leading to death!
