3.0 BOILER LOCATION
In all cases, the TFTN boiler must be installed indoors in a dry location where the ambient temperature must be maintained
above freezing and below 100
F [38
C]. All boiler components must be protected from dripping, spraying water, or rain
during operation and servicing.
Consider the proximity of system piping, gas and electrical supply, condensate disposal drain,
and proximity to vent termination when determining the best boiler location.
Water or flood damaged components must be replaced immediately with new factory-approved
components as failure to do so may result in fire, serious injury, or death.
