4.2.4 Setting the boiler in place
It is recommended that a house keeping pad 4 to 6 inches high be installed to ensure proper condensate drainage.
If anchoring the boiler is required due to local codes for seismic activities potential, ensure 4 holes ¾ diameter by 4
inches deep are drilled in the house keeping pad as per the dimension shown in figure# 4
The boiler frame has been drilled with 4 holes of 7/8 diameter, allowing for a ¾ X 9 inch long concrete wedge anchor
bolt to be placed thru the frame and into the concrete. Ensure to drill the 4 holes a minimum of 4 inches deep to allow
the concrete wedge anchor bolt to securely fasten into the concrete.
