Placing The Boiler (OWB-9 – OWB-25) 

 

1.

 

Move the boiler as close as possible to its final location in the crate. 

2.

 

Remove the two lag screws holding the rear feet to the skid. 

3.

 

Remove the front jacket panel.  Cut the band holding the front of the boiler to the 
skid. 

4.

 

Move the boiler into the final position. 

5. 

Waste Oil Piping: USE ONLY 3/8” nominal ID copper tubing with flare fittings only on the 
oil suction from the tank to the oil pump and oil pump to burner.  

DO NOT use ferrule 

fittings or teflon tape on any pipe fittings.  

Keep suction line approximately 6” from 

bottom of oil tank to prevent suction of sludge (Figure 11).  Use only an inside oil storage 
tank.  

Do Not

 draw from an outside tank, especially not an underground tank directly to 

burner.  A separate transfer pump from an outside tank with proper filtration to the inside 
supply tank is acceptable.

 

6. 

The fuel pump included with burner is to be mounted at tank level or below. 

PUMP MUST 

BE MOUNTED HORIZONTAL AND LOCATED NEXT TO WASTE OIL SUPPLY TANK. 

 

 

 

Figure 11. 

 
 

 

 

The breeching connection on OWB-9, OWB-15 and OWB-25 is 7 inches regardless of 
input.  Refer to Table 1 for minimum breeching sizes.  Breeching run should be as short 
as possible with as few elbows a practical.  Unless marginal draft conditions exist, a 
brametric draft control must be installed in the breeching and should be approximately 18 
inches from the boiler breeching connection.  Breeching should not project into the 
chimney beyond the inside wall of the chimney.  Connect the breeching to the chimney 
with a thimble or slip joint to facilitate cleaning.  See Figure 12.
