3.5.6 Removing an Existing Boiler
When an existing boiler is removed from a common venting system, the common venting system is likely to be
too large for proper venting of the appliances remaining connected to it.
At the time of removal of an existing boiler, while the other appliances remaining connected to the common
venting system are not in operation, the following steps should be followed with each appliance remaining
connected to the common venting system placed in operation:
1. Seal any unused openings in the common venting system.
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch and determine that there is no
blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion or other deficiency which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and windows and all doors between the space in which the
appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are located and other spaces of the building.
Turn on clothes dryers and any appliances 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.
4. Place the appliance being inspected in operation. Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust the thermostat so
that the appliance will operate continuously.
5. 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.
6. 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 appliance to their previous conditions of use.
Any improper operation of the common venting system should be corrected so the installation conforms with the
National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 and CAN/CSA B149.1 Installation Code. When resizing any
portion of the common venting system, the common vent system should be resized to approach the minimum size
as determined using the appropriate tables.

IPING
Before making the gas hook-up, make sure the boiler is being supplied with the type of fuel shown on the boiler
nameplate. The boiler must be installed such that the gas system components are protected from water
(dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during appliance operation and service (circulator replacement, control
replacement, etc.)
The boiler is factory fire-tested and adjusted for proper combustion with a natural gas supply pressure of 8 inches
W.C. Typical supply gas pressure is 8 inches W.C. for natural gas. The gas train components are certified to
handle a maximum inlet pressure of 14 inches W.C. (1/2 psig.). If the available gas pressure exceeds 14 inches
W.C., a suitable additional intermediate gas pressure regulator of the “lock up” type must be provided to reduce
the pressure to less than 14 inches W.C.
All threaded connections must be made using a pipe compound that is certified
resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum gases.
Do not use Teflon tape on gas line threads.
NOTICE! Piping must be installed such that no piping stresses are transmitted to the boiler. The boiler
shall
not
be used as a pipe anchor.
The boiler and all gas piping connections should be pressure-tested and must be checked for leaks before being
placed into service. Test with compressed air or inert gas if possible.
