Table 2: Clearance from boiler cabinet 

A minimum distance below the boiler of 11" is required to provide 

clearance for the supplied condensation trap assembly. More clearance will 

typically be required to accommodate associated water and gas piping.

EXHAUST VENTING AND AIR INTAKE

It is important to carefully plan the installation to ensure the appropriate 

vent materials, travel and termination decisions are incorporated. Specific 

attention is warranted to manage the impact of the steam plume normally 

experienced at the exhaust terminal of a condensing boiler. Generally, 

intake and exhaust pipes should terminate at a rooftop or sterile wall 

location, to maximize customer satisfaction. Keep exhaust plumes 

well away from all building air intakes including those of neighbouring 

properties.

WARNING

Exposed water piping and 

associated components 

(relief valves, circulators, etc.) 

should not be in contact with 

combustible materials. Check 

local codes for required 

clearances and/or provide 

adequate insulation.

1.4

DANGER

Do not common vent the HC 

modulating series boilers 

with any other existing or new 

appliance.

WARNING

DO NOT MOUNT THIS 

BOILER TO HOLLOW 

WALL STRUCTURES - The 

combined weight of the 

boiler, its water contents 

and associated piping 

components can exceed 150 

pounds. Fasteners must be 

rated for this strain, and must 

be firmly anchored into solid 

material that will support this 

weight.
Installers are to take all 

necessary precautions 

to avoid injury during the 

installation of this boiler.
