Installation
Venting System
•
Failure to provide correct chimney venting can lead to increased
carbon monoxide production and increased emissions of
combustion gases into the building, which may cause death or
serious injury.
•
Do not connect the ENERGY KING heating appliance to any
chimney flue serving any other appliance.
•
Risk of Fire: Inspect and clean flues and chimney regularly.
•
Risk of Fire: Do not operate with the flue draft exceeding .06 ″
(14.95 Pa) water column.
Consult a qualified boiler installer, your local building inspector and your fire
officials to make sure the chimney and all connections conform to all local, state and
national codes and regulations.
Your venting system is an extremely important
part of any solid-fuel heating appliance
installation and has two key functions:
1. To exhaust smoke and flue gases which
are the natural result of combustion.
2. To provide “draft.” The draft, along with
your combustion blower, provides a
continuous supply of fresh air for proper
combustion.
A chimney connector and chimney make up the
venting system and must be properly installed
and maintained to protect against a fire.
Consult a chimney and venting specialist.
The ENERGY KING Wood/Coal Boiler requires
installation into a lined masonry chimney or an
8-inch listed UL103 type HT all-fuel factory-built
chimney. Minimum 24 gauge black steel
chimney connector is required. An existing
chimney must be cleaned and inspected to be
sure it is clean and free from defect or damage.
All connections must comply with NFPA
Standard 211 and all applicable building codes
and regulations.
When installing a factory-built chimney, follow
all installation instructions provided by the
chimney manufacturer.
For best performance, RJM Manufacturing, Inc.
recommends using insulated chimney rather
than triple wall or air cooled chimney.
Important venting installation clearances and
points for proper operation and safety:
•
The connection from the ENERGY KING
Wood/Coal Boiler to the chimney must be
made using 8
″ black steel material with a
minimum 24 gauge. Do not use galvanized
steel. See
Chimney Connector.
•
A minimum distance of 18 inches must be
maintained between the chimney connector
and combustible ceiling surfaces.
•
A minimum of 18 inches must be maintained
between the chimney connector and the
backwall, and 20 inches between the
connector and sidewalls.
•
Secure all connector pipe joints with at least
three sheet metal screws.
•
Avoid using more than two elbows in
connecting the heating appliance to the
chimney.
•
Any horizontal runs of connector pipe should
have a minimum rise of 1/2-inch per linear
foot. Use extra support hangers or brackets
every three feet if it is absolutely necessary
to have a run of more than six feet, which is
not recommended.
•
The chimney must be at least 3 feet higher
than the highest point where it passes
through the roof, and at least 2 feet higher
than the highest part of the roof or structure
that is within 10 feet of the chimney,
measured horizontally. Please refer to
Figure
8: Venting Requirements
. For best
performance, RJM Manufacturing, Inc.
recommends a chimney height of at least 12
feet.
