1.2.1
Planning
Sizing the Boiler
It is critical to size the boiler properly. A proper up to date heat load
calculation is advised. An accurate history of building fuel usage over
several years can help to calculate the proper size boiler. Boiler sizing is
the responsibility of the installer. Tarm Biomass bears no responsibility
for boiler sizing, but can provide sizing input.
Choosing an Installer
Choosing a competent, licensed installer is critical to the successful
installation of the boiler. The installer is responsible for all planning,
installation, start-up, troubleshooting, owner training, and annual
maintenance for the boiler. Some aspects of the system piping, start-up,
and operation may differ from normal practice in fossil fuel boiler
installation. To be successful, the installer must study this manual,
follow conceptual drawings and instructions provided, understand the
installation tasks, and contact Tarm Biomass for help when necessary.
Tarm Biomass will provide phone assistance at no additional cost to the
original boiler owner to assure success in the installation.
Locating the Boiler and Boiler Clearances
The boiler must be installed with the minimum installation clearances to
combustible materials outlined on the next page. Clearances may only
be reduced by means approved by the regulatory authorities.
The boiler is not suitable for outdoor installation. It must be located
in a weather-tight, protected space.
The boiler must be placed on a level, non-combustible floor, such as
a concrete slab on earth.
If the boiler is placed near inhabited rooms, so that flue gas can
easily penetrate into these rooms, a carbon monoxide alarm must
be installed that can give a warning regarding possible escapes of
carbon monoxide into the inhabited rooms.
DO NOT INSTALL THIS BOILER IN A MOBILE HOME. There is no safe
way this boiler can be installed inside a mobile home.
The boiler must be installed with the minimum installation clearances to
combustible materials outlined below. Clearances may only be reduced
by means approved by the regulatory authorities.
Minimum installation clearances see chapter 3.2.2
