Part 1 - General Safety Information
This boiler is approved for indoor installations only and is not intended
for use as a pool heater. Clearance to combustible materials: 0” top,
bottom, sides, and back. Boiler must have room for service: 18” front,
14” top, 12” bottom, 2” left and right sides and 0” back are minimum
recommended service clearances. (A combustible door or removable
panel is acceptable front clearance. A 3” minimum clearance must
be provided from the boiler front cover to the removable panel or
combustible door.) This boiler has been approved for closet installation
and installation on combustible flooring. Do not install directly on
carpeting. Install the boiler in a location where relief valve discharge
or a leak will not result in damage to the surrounding area. If such a
location is not available install an auxiliary catch pan.
This appliance is rated Category IV (pressurized vent, likely to form
condensate in the vent) and requires a special vent system designed
for pressurized venting.
Use only Category IV vent systems.
Installer -
Read all instructions in this manual before installing.
Perform steps in the given order.
User -
This manual is for use only by a qualified service technician.
Have this boiler serviced / inspected annually by a qualified service
technician.
FAILURE TO ADHERE TO THE GUIDELINES ON THIS PAGE CAN RESULT
IN SUBSTANTIAL PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY,
OR DEATH.
NOTE:
Obey all local codes. Obtain all applicable permits before
installing the boiler.
NOTE:
Install all system components and piping in such a manner
that does not reduce the performance of any fire rated assembly.
A. Operation and Installation Warnings
To avoid serious injury or death, read, understand, and follow all of the
precautions listed here.
Vapors from flammable liquids will explode and cause a fire,
resulting in personal injury or death. The boiler has a burner that
can come on at any time and ignite vapors. DO NOT use or store
flammable liquids around the boiler.
Improper venting can cause a build-up of carbon monoxide.
Breathing carbon monoxide can result in brain damage or death.
DO NOT operate the boiler unless it is properly vented to the
outside and has an adequate fresh air supply for safe operation.
Inspect the exterior exhaust gas outlet port and fresh air inlet port
on a regular basis to ensure they are functioning properly.
A concentration of carbon monoxide as small as .04% (400 parts
per million) in the air can be fatal. When making high fire or low
fire adjustments, CO levels must be monitored using a calibrated
combustion analyzer such that a CO level of no more than 150
ppm is exceeded at any time during operation.
Adjusting the “low fire offset” or the “main flow restrictor” in small
increments can result in a significant increase in CO concentration.
To avoid serious injury or death, DO NOT make any adjustments to
the gas valve without monitoring the exhaust gases with a fully
functional and calibrated combustion analyzer.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in property damage,
severe personal injury, or death.
WARNING
WARNING
DANGER
NOTE:
If the boiler is exposed to fire or water (or is any way
damaged), do not operate. Immediately call a qualified service
technician. Failure to follow this information could result in property
damage, severe personal injury, or death.
This boiler must be installed by a qualified service technician.
Improper installation and/or operation can cause a potentially
hazardous situation, which if not avoided will void the warranty and
could result in serious injury or death.
The manufacturer cannot anticipate every circumstance that might
involve a potential hazard. Each installation has its own specialized
characteristics, requirements, and possible hazards. Therefore, all
possible incidents are not included in these warnings. Proper and
safe installation, operation, and service are the responsibility of
the qualified service technician.
Proper care of the boiler is the user’s responsibility. Ensure the
user carefully reads and understands the User’s Information
Manual before operating the boiler.
Make sure the user knows the location of the gas shut-off valve
and how to operate it. Immediately close the gas shut-off valve
if the appliance is subjected to fire, overheating, flood, physical
damage, or any other damaging condition that might affect the
operation of the unit. Have the appliance checked by a qualified
service technician before resuming operation.
Do not power up the unit unless the gas and water supply valves
are fully opened. Make sure the fresh air intake port and exhaust
gas port are open and functional.
No one but a qualified service technician should attempt to install,
service, or repair this boiler. There are no serviceable parts which
can be changed by the user / owner.
User / Owner: Contact the original qualified service technician if
the boiler needs repair / maintenance. If the original technician
is unavailable, ask your gas supplier for a list of qualified service
providers.
DO NOT store or place newspapers, laundry, or other combustible
items near the appliance or the exterior exhaust gas outlet and/or
fresh air inlet port.
The owner should inspect the system monthly for damage, water
stains, signs of rust, corrosion, and exhaust vent and air intake
blockage. If inspection of the unit shows signs of damage, the
boiler should be shut off until the problem is repaired by a qualified
technician.
After installation, all appliance safety devices should be tested.
The boiler is certified for indoor installations only. The boiler
consists of gas ignition system components which must be
protected from water (dripping, spraying, etc.) during operation and
service. Carefully consider installation location and the placement
of critical components (circulators, condensate neutralizers, etc.)
before installing the boiler.
DO NOT allow children to operate this boiler. DO NOT use this boiler
if it does not appear to be operating correctly. A qualified service
technician should service and inspect the boiler annually.
