Boiler is equipped for residential installations. If used for 

commercial applications; additional code requirements 

must be adhered to. This may require additional controls, 

including but not limited to manual reset low water cut off, 

manual reset high temperature limit, and wiring and/or 

piping modifi cations.

Installation must conform to the requirements of the 

1. 

authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such 

requirements, to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI 

Z223.1/NFPA 54, and/or Natural Gas and Propane 

Installation Code, CAN/CSA B149.1
Where required by authority having jurisdiction, 

2. 

installation must conform to the Standard for Controls 

and Safety Devices for Automatically fi red Boilers, 

ANSI/ASME CSD-1.
Be certain gas input rate is correct. Over-fi ring may 

3. 

result in early failure of boiler components; this may 

cause dangerous operation. Under-fi ring may result in 

too much air for pre-mix burner causing poor or loss of 

combustion.
Never vent products of combustion from this boiler to 

4. 

enclosed space. Always vent to outdoors. Never vent to 

another room or to inside building.
Verify adequate outdoor air supply to boiler for 

5. 

complete combustion.
Follow regular service and maintenance schedule for 

6. 

effi cient and safe operation.
Keep boiler area clean of debris and free from 

7. 

combustible materials, gasoline and other fl ammable 

vapors and liquids.
Proper through-the-wall or through-the-roof 

8. 

combustion venting shall be in accordance with 

materials and methods described in this manual. 

Installation must comply with local codes.
Boiler and related hot water heating systems are 

9. 

not do-it-yourself items. Installation and service by 

qualifi ed professionals are required.

2 - SAFE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION

Installers - Follow local regulations with respect to 

installation of CO (Carbon Monoxide) Detectors. Follow 

maintenance recommendations in this manual.  See 

“Maintenance And Cleaning” on page 42.

Boiler Sizing

Verify you have selected the boiler with proper capacity 

• 

before continuing installation. AHRI Rating of boiler 

selected should be greater than or equal to calculated 

peak heating load (heat loss) for building or area(s) served 

by boiler and associated hot water heating systems. See 

“Boiler Ratings & Capacities” on page 3.
Heat loss calculations should be based on approved 

• 

industry methods. 

Considerations For Boiler Location

Before selecting boiler location, consider following. 

Supplied with correct type of gas (natural gas or 

• 

propane).
Connected to suitable combustion air intake piping 

• 

system to supply correct amount of fresh (outdoor) air 

for combustion. See “Combustion Air And Vent Pipe” on 

page 13.
Connected to suitable venting system to remove 

• 

hazardous products of gas combustion. See “Combustion 

Air And Vent Pipe” on page 13.
Connected to suitable hot water heating system.

• 

Supplied with suitable electrical supply for all boiler 

• 

motors and controls.
Connected to properly located thermostat or operating 

• 

control. (Not included with boiler)  

WARNING

Fire hazard. Do not install boiler on carpeting. 

Failure to follow these instructions could result in 

death or serious injury.

!

   

Placed on level surface (DO NOT install on carpeting)

• 

Condensate drain line must be pitched down to fl oor 

• 

drain or external condensate pump with reservoir at ¼” 

per foot (21 mm/m) (wood frame or blocks may be used 

to raise boiler).

WARNING

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service 

or maintenance could result in death or serious 

injury
