Installation

I.  GENERAL

    CWL-GS Series hot water boilers are high quality, high efficiency gas fired vertical fire tube heating units.

The  in stal la tion  of  the  unit  shall  be  in  accordance  with  regulations  of  the  authorities  having  jurisdiction.
Refer to Local installation Codes for Gas Burning Equipment, for recommended installation practice.

The CWL must be installed with the factory assembled jacket intact.

II.  FREIGHT CLAIMS

    

All units should be inspected for damage upon arrival.  Concealed damage claims should be filed

immediately against the carrier by the consignee.  The carrier is responsible for taking prompt action on all
claims.

III.  SIZING

    
    

A  complete  heat  loss  calculation  of  the  structure  is  necessary  to  choose  the  proper  size  unit.

Oversizing will result in short cycling and inefficient operation. In order to insure proper sizing of the unit,
domestic hot water re quire ments and the structure heat load must be calculated.

    

Replacement  boilers  should  not  be  sized  from  the  firing  rate  of  the  old  boiler.  A  DOE  sponsored

study indicates 65% of the heating units in U.S. homes are substantially oversized.
