New York City MEA Number 39-86-E Vol. IV.

The Ratings marked “Net 1=B=R Ratings” indicate the amount
of remaining heat input that can be used to heat the radiation
or terminal units. The Net 1=B=R Ratings shown are based on
an allowance of 1.15 in accordance with the factors shown on
the 1=B=R Standard as published by The Hydronics Institute.

Selection of boiler size should be based upon “Net 1=B=R
Rating” being equal to or greater than the calculated heat loss
of the building.

The manufacturer should be consulte

d before 

selecting a boiler

for installations having unusual piping and pickup requirements.
These boilers must stand on a non-combustible floor. If in

* MBH = 1,000 Btuh = British Thermal Unit Per Hour

Boilers are equipped for altitudes up to 2,000 feet only
U.S.A. Only - For altitudes above 2,000  feet, ratings should be reduced at the rate of 4% for each 1,000 feet above sea level.
Canada Only - Boilers may be used at high altitude by using a certified field conversion kit, resulting in a 10% derate.

+ Heating Capacity based on D.O.E. (Department of Energy) test procedure. Add 5½” to height when vent damper is used.
‡ 2 section boilers are equipped with a 3” diameter flue collar on the draft diverter, and use a furnished 3” x 4” increaser fitting to install

the furnished 4” vent damper.

stalled on a combustible floor, use Combustible Floor Base
Number 42135-1 or 146-14-031 (2-6 section boilers) or
42135-2 or 146-14-032 (7-9 section boilers).

BOILERS FOR USE AT HIGH ALTITUDE

This boiler is factory equipped for use at altitudes of 0-2,000
feet above sea level. For use at altitudes above 2,000 feet
above sea level, the input ratings are reduced by a change in
main burner orifice size.

U.S.A. Only 

For altitudes above 2,000 feet above sea

level, input ratings should be reduced at the rate of 4% for
each 1,000 feet above sea level. Consult the
