START-UP PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION REVIEW
a) Check with local authorities where approval for start-up is required. In some localities, final
inspection of services may be required.
b) Review the installation section of this manual carefully. Confirm accordance with installation
guidelines, including:
1. In general, ensure that the heater area is in conformance with established heater room
requirements. Review national and local codes.
c) Check for total absence of water in pipework and fluid. To help the system, open all drains; blow
air nitrogen if available into a high point bleed through a pressure regulating valve.
Note: Unless specially filtered, compressed air will introduce moisture into the system. Dry air or Nitrogen is
recommended.
d) Make sure that there are no obstructions left in the thermal fluid circuit from pressure leak
testing such as blanking plates in flanged joints.
e) Check that pipework is free to expand naturally when hot. Open all valves to user circuits
including air bleed valves at high points and drains at low points in the piping system, and the
liquid level test connections in the expansion section of the combination tank.
f) Heater is located with the proper clearances as shown in Installation section of this manual.
g) Relief valves have been properly piped to a safe catchment.
h) Flue gas from the heater is properly vented.
i) Combustion air openings are not obstructed in any way and have adequate capacity.
j) There are no flammable liquids, materials or hazardous fumes present in the environment.
k) Nothing was damaged or knocked loose during shipment and installation. Inspect the main gas
train and trim assembly to be sure they were not damaged during shipment or installation.
l) Local authorities where approval for start-up is required have been notified. In some localities,
final inspection of services may be required.
