6.1

General

This boiler requires a dedicated direct vent system.

Install combustion air and vent piping in accordance

with these instructions, authority having jurisdiction,

and:

• USA - National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

Vent connections serving appliances vented by natural draft

shall not be connected into any portion of mechanical draft

systems operating under positive pressure.
Install vent system in accordance with these instructions.

6.2

Removal of Existing Boiler From Common

Vent System

When existing boiler is removed from common venting

system, common venting system is likely to be too large for

proper venting of appliances remaining connected to it.
After removal of existing boiler, following steps shall be

followed with each appliance remaining connected to common

venting system placed in operation, while other appliances

remaining connected to common venting system are not in

operation:

• Seal any unused openings in common venting system.
• Visually inspect venting system for proper size and

horizontal pitch. Determine there is no blockage or

restrictions, leakage, corrosion and other deficiencies which

could cause an unsafe condition.

• When practical, close all building doors, windows, and

all doors between space in which appliances remaining

connected to common venting system are located and

other spaces of building. Turn on clothes dryer and any

appliance not connected to common venting system.

Turn on exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom

exhaust so they will operate at maximum speed. Do not

operate summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.

• Turn on appliance being inspected. Follow lighting

instructions. Adjust thermostat so appliances will operate

continuously.

• Test for spillage at draft hood relief opening after 5

minutes of main burner operation. Use flame of match or

candle, smoke from cigarette, cigar or pipe.

• Determine each appliance remaining connected to common

venting system properly vents when tested as outlined

above. Then return doors, windows, exhaust fans and any

other gas-burning appliance to their previous condition of

use.

• Any improper operation of common venting system

should be corrected so installation conforms with National

Fuel Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or Natural Gas

and Propane Installation Code, CAN/CSA B149.1. When

re-sizing any portion of common venting system, common

venting system should be re-sized to approach minimum

size as determined using appropriate tables in Chapter 13

of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/

or Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CAN/CSA

B149.1.
