NOTE:
This table is for information only. Combustion air dampers
and vent adapters are listed for use of design and may or may not
be specific to your application.
Design and installation of venting
systems should be done only be
qualified and knowledgeable
venting systems personnel and in
accordance with vent system
manufacturer’s installation
instructions. Installing a boiler or
vent system using improper
installation methods or materials
can result in serious injury or death
due to fire or asphyxiation.
Before connecting a boiler to a
venting system, it must be
determined whether the boiler is to
be installed in a conventional or
direct vent configuration. In the
US, provisions for combustion air
must be in accordance with NFPA
54/ANSI Z223.1, National Fuel
Gas Code, latest edition, or
applicable provisions of the local
building codes. In Canada,
combustion and ventilation air
openings shall comply with
CAN/CSA B-149.1 Natural Gas
and Propane Installation Code.
For correct installation of vent
system, read all of these
instructions and refer to vent
manufacturer’s instructions.
Failure to use a proper vent system
(types and materials), as described
in this manual will void the boiler
warranty and may result in rapid
deterioration of the venting system,
creating a health or life safety
hazard.
Faulty vent installation can allow
toxic fumes to be released into
living areas. This may cause
property damage, injury or death.
