B. Removing an Existing Boiler From a Common Chimney

 

Read this only if the CHG boiler is replacing an existing boiler that is being removed from a common chimney.   

This section does not apply to the installation of a CHG boiler. 

 

In some cases, when an existing boiler is removed from a common chimney, the common venting system may    

be too large for the remaining appliances. At the time of removal of an existing boiler, the following steps shall be  

followed with each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system placed in operation, while the  

other appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are not in operation.
(a)  Seal any unused openings in the common venting system.
(b)  Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch and determine there is no    

 

blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition.

(c)  Insofar as practical, close all building doors and windows and all doors between the space in which all the 

appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are located and other spaces of the building.  

Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance not connected to the common venting system. Turn on any exhaust 

fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a 

summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.

(d)  Place in operation the appliance being inspected. Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust thermostat so the    

appliance will operate continuously. 

(e)  Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of    

a match or candle, or smoke from a cigarette, cigar, or pipe.

(f)  After it has been determined that each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system  

 

properly vents when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and    

any other gas-burning appliances to their previous condition of use.

(g)  Any improper operation of the common venting system should be corrected so the installation conforms  

 

with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. When re-sizing any portion of the common venting  

system, the common venting system should be re sized to approach the minimum size as determined using    

the appropriate tables in Part 11 of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.

C. Vent / Intake System Assembly 

1)  General Assembly Notes:

a)   Where the use of “silicone” is called for in the following instructions, use GE RTV 106 for the vent collar.   Air 

inlet piping sections are sealed with any general-purpose silicone sealant such as  GE RTV102. PVC air  

 

inlet piping sections are connected with PVC cement. 

b)   Longitudinal welded seams should not be placed at the bottom of horizontal sections of exhaust pipe.
c)   Do not drill holes in vent pipe. 
d)   Do not attempt to mix vent components of different vent system manufacturers.
e)   In some cases, there are differences between the vent system installation instructions in this manual and 

those in the vent system manufacturer’s manual. Where such differences exist, this manual takes    

 

precedence over the vent system manufacturer’s manual.
