Installations must
follow these codes:
• Local, state, provincial, and national
codes, laws, regulations and ordinances.
• National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z3.1–lat-
est edition.
• Standard for Controls and Safety Devices
for Automatically Fired Boilers, ANSI/
ASME CSD-1, when required.
• National Electrical Code.
• For Canada only: B149.1 or B149. Instal-
lation Code, CSA C.1 Canadian Electri-
cal Code Part 1 and any local codes.
The CGt boiler gas mani-
fold and controls met
safe lighting and other
performance criteria
when boiler underwent
tests specified in ANSI
Z1.13–latest edition.
Before locating the boiler,
check the following:
• Check for nearby connection to:
• System water piping
• Venting connections
• Gas supply piping
• Electrical power
• Check area around boiler.
Remove any combustible materials,
gasoline and other flammable liquids, or other contaminants
.
Failure to keep boiler area clear and free of
com-
bustible materials, gasoline and other flammable
liquids and vapors
can result in severe personal
injury, death or substantial property damage.
• Boiler must be installed so that gas control system components are
protected from dripping or spraying water or rain during operation
or service.
• If new boiler will replace existing boiler, check for and correct system
problems, such as:
1. System leaks causing oxygen corrosion or section cracks from
hard water deposits.
. Incorrectly-sized expansion tank.
3. Lack of antifreeze in boiler water causing system and boiler to
freeze and leak.
Before placing boiler in boiler room, mount the
ambient tempera-
ture switch
on the wall that will be closest to the boiler as shown at
right. Mount the switch
no more than 5 inches from the ceiling
,
as shown. Connect the switch wires to the switch after placing the
boiler in position.
The ambient temperature switch prevents
overheating of the boiler components and
combustible materials in the vicinity of the
boiler in the event ventilation air should be
blocked. Failure to install the switch as shown
could result in severe personal injury, death or
substantial property damage.
